It isn’t always easy to change your way of life or the way you eat.  Diet is a habit (good or bad).   To change your diet, it will affect change throughout your entire person.  Everything from hormones to mindset is challenged and changed.   Your nutrition is the foundation of your health and wellbeing, and proper nutrition is required for the best day-to-day life and athletic performance.   By eating the right foods, your body will function more efficiently, gain energy, burn fat, maximize athletic performance, heal intestinal aliments, various autoimmune and metabolic related diseases, and provide better overall health and wellbeing.    This will be a rewarding journey!    One step at a time, with the Paleo Lifestyle Revolution, goals will be met and rewards will be reaped.  We’re here to help you along the way!

Over the past several months, CFBF has heavily promoted and carried out our own challenges based on the Whole30 – 30 day Paleo Challenge program. 

Many of our members, and some distant friends, have completed the Whole30 – 30 Day Paleo Challenge or are currently in the process of completing this challenge.   As our members and friends have completed each 30 day challenge, we couldn’t help but sense a need to provide a bridge or transition to a Paleo lifestyle, complete with more tools, information, support, and a great how-to program to turn 30 days into a lifestyle. 

Our approach is simple, take each member through a structured, 3 stage, 90 day Lifestyle Revolution, and equip each with the tools, information and support needed to work through the First Stage – 30 day challenge, following strict Paleo guidelines, into the second stage as a Paleo life solution, and then into a third and final stage, working to teach & mentor each member to adapt and adopt Paleo as their own Lifestyle Revolution.

It is our desire, as the BodyFit team of experienced Paleo lifers, to provide each member with all the tools, information, and support necessary to integrate Paleo into their lives as a defined & permanent lifestyle change.   Our goal is to keep it simple and provide exactly what you need, precisely when you need it.   As the new CrossFit by BodyFit Paleo Lifestyle Revolution kicks off, we want to have all Paleo questions, information, discussions, and blogging to take place at www.brentscrossfitpaleolife.com.   This will help keep this information available to a broad audience and available ultimately to the masses, other Paleo people, and fellow CrossFitters.    The more our community and members contribute to this blog and share their Paleo experiences, thoughts, questions, ideas, recipes, on this blog site, the more exposure in the Paleo community & on the net we can gain.   We want anyone who wants to join this great life-changing program to be able to join in and follow along and experience the Paleo Lifestyle Revolution in real life.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

Overall Lifestyle Revolution  requirements:

• First, in all requirements, you are on an honor system.   You are only cheating yourself if you provide us with falsified information.  What joy can there be in a victory that you did not earn… right?
• There is a $30 “Membership Fee” for the entire multi-phase program.  This fee is an administration fee to cover all printed materials, admin costs and maintenance costs associated to run and maintain this program.  If you are at a distance the money can be mailed direct to CrossFit by BodyFit at 769-C S. San Jacinto Ave. San Jacinto, Ca 92583.  Please text Kevin Penner at 951-378-3563 or Brent Behringer at 951-316-2027 for confirmation. 
• Bodyweight & body fat measurements must be taken on the day you start each stage (beginning of each 30 days).   If you are at a distance, you can simply email the measurements to us @ www.bodyfit4everybody.com
• If you have recently (within the past 45 to 60 days) completed a 30 Day Paleo program and have maintained Paleo in a fairly strict format since, you may choose to start the program at Phase Two.  Although, we highly recommend that you start from the beginning to achieve maximum results and benefits.
• You must keep a daily food, exercise, and sleep log/journal for the entire 90 days (provided).
• You must agree to use http://brentscrossfitpaleolife.com/  as your main communication source for post ups, blogging, questions, and discussions with other members.  This site has been established as a tool to host the CrossFit by BodyFit Paleo Lifestyle Revolution program.
• Before & After photos are encouraged but not mandatory.  If you plan to take photos, we recommend that you take them at the start & completion of each 30 day phase.   You should take them in the same clothes, less is better, like swim suit or workout clothes.  You should have a second party take both front and profile photos of you.  Be sure to smile!  Feel free to email the photos to us at www.bodyfit4everybody.com .  We will not post, show, or release any photos, without your specific direction and written approval by you.   Only the CrossFit by Bodyfit Team will see your photos if they are provided to us.   Photos definitely provide a good snapshot of progress!
• Drink water with a fervor.  Try and drink ½ your bodyweight in ounces throughout each day.   Shoot to start off each morning with 2 – 10 oz glasses of water before your breakfast.  
• There is no set limit on the amount of food to eat.  You simply eat off of the “Eat the Following” list until you are full.  But remember fruit, nuts and seeds in moderation.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

Stage One Requirements:

• Stage One is 30 calendar days from the day you start.
• Read the complete Whole30 V3.11 
• If you do not understand something, please don’t hesitate to ask us.  
• This is STRICT PALEO, so there will be absolutely no cheat meals or cheat days allowed.   If you cheat you will pay CrossFit by Bodyfit $20.  If you cheat, the 30 day clock will be re-set.   The first 30 days is a detoxification for your body and eating any foods off the “do Not eat” list WILL impact your body period.
• Once you commit, commit fully.  Stay strong and don’t give in to complacency, fear, family pressures, peer pressures, stress, or that tiny voice in your head that will be telling you “you can’t do this”.
• We highly recommend for Phase 1 – Strict Paleo that you stay away from fast food restaurants.   While some offer choices that can be Paleo tweaked, most are very difficult to order from.   If you must, and we understand that you are bound to be in a un-prepared food emergency,  remember, lean meat & veggies only.  No sodas or sugar drinks, no special sauces, mustard only!  Unsweetened iced tea is a good option.  Remember you have to order properly and demand what you want! 
• Restrict your fruit, nut and seed consumption within the first 14 days.  A little is good, too much is not good. 

__________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

Stage Two Requirements:

• Stage Two is 30 calendar days & begins the following day after Stage One ends.
• We highly recommend that you purchase & read Robb Wolf’s book “The Paleo Solution”  The book can be purchased at book stores like Barnes & Noble or off Amazon.com.  It would be great to start reading this book, about 10 days out from completion of Phase 1 so that you are ready to go on day one of Phase Two start.
• You are allowed 1 cheat meal (not day) per week.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

Stage Three Requirements:

• Stage Three is 30 calendar days & begins the following day after Stage Two ends.
• You are allowed 1 cheat meal per week.
• You are allowed more flexibility on the use of sauces & spices.
• You are allowed 1 beer or glass of wine per week.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

We want you to participate and take your life and health very seriously.  We want to work with you to help you implement Paleo into your personal lifestyle.  We understand this is not a one-size-fits-all.  We believe if you step through the 90 day program, with the tools, information, and support we will provide you, you will experience amazing results in unexpected areas. 

There are plenty of “nutrition challenges” out there.   There are programs, fad diets, & diet supplements that come and go and that promise you’ll see quick and substantial weight loss, more energy, and performance all without missing out on all the foods you really love.   Truth is, they provide empty promises and guarantees.   There is no magic pill.   The CrossFit by BodyFit Paleo Lifestyle  Revolution program will walk you through a step-by-step guide on how to eat properly, how to make proper food choice with foods that fuel your body, identification of foods that could be negatively affecting your body and health, and will help set and change your habits, patterns, and behaviors!
