Stop Ignoring the Obvious: Nutrition Is the Missing Piece

You train hard. You show up. You push your limits. But your results? Still not where you want them to be. Here’s why:
You're only doing half the work.

CrossFit isn’t just a training program. It’s a fitness and nutrition program. Always has been.

If you’re skipping the nutrition part, you’re building your results on sand. Doesn’t matter how many burpees you do, how heavy your deadlift is, or how many sweaty selfies you take—you won’t see real, lasting change until you fuel your body like it matters.

Let’s Talk Macros:

Your body runs on three basics—protein, carbs, and fat. Mess them up, and your progress slows to a crawl.

Protein

This is your recovery and muscle-building machine.

• Want strength gains? You need more than “just enough.”
• Aim for 1.6–2.2g per kg of bodyweight daily.
• That’s chicken, eggs, Greek yogurt, lean beef, fish, whey protein. Every damn day.

Skip it, and you’ll feel weaker, slower, and constantly sore.
Hit it, and you’ll recover faster, build muscle, and feel like a beast under the bar.

Carbs

Carbs are not the enemy. They’re your fuel—especially if you’re smashing WODs and lifting heavy.

• Focus on whole food carbs: rice, oats, potatoes, fruit, sourdough, quinoa.
• Don’t starve yourself—your engine runs on carbs.

Less carbs = lower energy, poor recovery, and hitting a wall halfway through class.
Carbs done right = better intensity, better results.

Fat

Fat keeps your hormones happy and your body running smoothly.

• Think avocados, olive oil, nuts, seeds, eggs.
• Don’t go keto unless you’re trying to kill your performance.
  Fat supports your system—but it’s not your main fuel source when you’re training like we do.

Balance Is the Game-Changer

You don’t need to track every gram forever. But if you want visible, measurable progress?

• Prioritize protein
• Fuel with smart carbs
• Add healthy fats in moderation

You’ll feel the difference within a week.
You’ll see it within a month.

What Happens When You Dial in Nutrition

• Faster body comp changes (less fluff, more muscle)
• Higher energy in workouts
• Stronger lifts, better endurance
• Less soreness and inflammation
• Better sleep, fewer cravings

You can’t out-train a crap diet. Want to unlock results? Clean up your plate.
