4.16.11 Nutrition - The Engine Behind the Scene

We tend to get caught up in the WOD board results as to time and loads: How much faster can I run that 200M sprint? How far can I push my CrossFit Total? Yeah I did the 30 Muscle-ups for time, but could I do 50 and in how much time?  To reach these goals and set new goals we may not fully realize or appreciate the critical item that will make it happen - FOOD.  What & how much do you eat & drink?

Print out the CrossFit Pyramid and place it in your office/home/car/kitchen/gym bag wherever, but make sure you look at what is at the base of that pyramid: NUTRITION, which lays the metabolic foundation for health & fitness.  To attain your personal records on load-speed-reps you need to incorporate Nutrition into your daily WOD.
