THE ZONE DIET

The Zone Diet-
"I tried this style of diet when I first started CrossFit. It works really well, but takes time to prepare all your meals. I ended up cooking, measuring and separating my weekly meals for hours on Sunday. Time spent was worth it, but hard to sustain that type of prepping each week. Also, the amount of good carbs I had to eat at each meal, sometimes took me 10 min to eat it all, I had a separate bowl for all my fruits and veggies. Later on I started adding some filler carbs in (which is allowed) like potatoes and rice. Take a look at this plan, it works, be prepared to prepare..." CHAD

On the Zone diet, you get 3 meals and 2 snacks a day. Each is a mix of low-fat protein, like skinless chicken, turkey, or fish; carbs (mostly fruits and veggies); and a small amount of “good” fat, like olive oil, almonds, and avocado.

No food is completely banned, but if you’re a carb-lover, you may find getting used to the Zone plan challenging. It encourages you to think of bread, pasta, grains, and other starches as condiments rather than as main or even side dishes.

Veggies and fruits that are relatively high in sugar -- like corn, carrots, bananas, and raisins -- are on the “unfavorable” list. Fatty red meat and egg yolks fall into the Zone’s “bad fats” column.

Every meal on the Zone has the same proportions: 30% protein, 30% fat, and 40% carbs.

What that looks like on the plate is a palm-sized portion of protein, two-thirds of the plate filled with nonstarchy fruits and vegetables, and a dash of monounsaturated fat like olive oil or slivered almonds.

Calories do count on the Zone diet. Women get about 1,200 calories a day. For men, it's 1,500

PALEO DIET

This blog is to help you with nutritional information and we will be posting different recipes to try out.

What Is The Paleo Diet?

The Paleo diet is the healthiest way you can eat because it is the ONLY nutritional approach that works with your genetics to help you stay lean, strong and energetic! Research in biology, biochemistry, Ophthalmology, Dermatology and many other disciplines indicate it is our modern diet, full of refined foods, trans fats and sugar, that is at the root of degenerative diseases such as obesity, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, depression and infertility. – Robb Wolf
