I have been doing Cross Fit for a couple months so not very long. I eat mostly Paleo style, but do break in a few places and also supplement. Do not worry, I am constantly thinking about this question of how much to eat. Lol. I just signed up for a lot of Training with a PT. I currently go 2x a week, but am going to switch to open gym format and go 5-6x a week once I really know my way around strong WOD results. I am also running 3-4 days a week now, about 20 miles a week. Push myself a lot in those runs.

My CF coaches are also nutrition specialists and chiropractors, but they don't have any experience with sleevers. Apparently, most of us don't go on to become crazy crossfitting athletes. Most people at the box went paleo zone, and it's just physically impossible to follow that with the banana tummy. lol I would be sitting at my desk eating all day long.

I'm running, too- training for Tough Mudder in July. Super excited about that! Are you training for a race?

LMAO!!!!

True story. Festivus WOD tomorrow is 12-15-9 Calorie row, thrusters, burpees. Kill me now.

How long have you been doing CF? I've been going a year 5-6x per week at this point. Joined today because I'm wondering how people are feeding themselves. I'm struggling to eat enough and it's having an impact on my performance. I went Paleo in October, which has been GREAT, but I never thought I'd be in a position to be nervous about eating ENOUGH.

Burpees are kind of a combination of push up, jumping to feet and final jumping jack. Fluid movement from laying on ground to clapping at the end. Repeat. It is challenging and causes much grinding and gnashing of teeth.

And the invention of many creative new curse words..... Especially when we had to do 13.1. Buck Furpees.
