CEC19.1 Guidelines and Rules

TEAMS

  1. Two people will comprise a “Team”.
  2. You will form your own teams.
  3. Teams can be male/male, female/female or male/female.
  4. Scores of both team members will be combined throughout the CEC will determine the winners.
  5. Teammates should lend support to each other and hold each other accountable.

NUTRITIONAL INTAKE

  1. This year our focus is on “CrossFit’s” nutritional recommendation. “Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. “
  2. Each team member will determine their own nutritional direction.
  3. Zone Diet, Paleo Diet, Keto Diet and/or any combination of these is recommended.
  4. You will be encouraged to eat “REAL FOOD”.

HOW IT WORKS 

This is a performance and nutrition challenge.  It’s not about eating less and losing the most weight.  Points and final prizes will be awarded according to the following criteria:

  1. Total points from Nutritional/Activity Log, (30%)
  2. Benchmark WOD-performance/improvement, (20%)
  3. Greatest % change in body composition, (50%)

There are various ways to earn points throughout the competition.  Obviously getting your WOD on 3-5 days per week will increase performance and will also result in greater body composition changes.  You will keep track of your points on your score sheet, which will be submitted weekly.  Each week will have “bonus” points available form additional tasks.  These bonus tasks are all designed to educate and motivate you through the CEC.  Historically the “bonus” points have made the difference in winning the CEC.

ORIENTATION

Friday night, (1/11), at 6:30 pm we will host an information/orientation meeting concerning CEC19.1.  If this is your 1st time to get in on a CEC it would be a good idea to attend.  

BODY COMPOSITION ANALYSIS

On Jan 9, 10, or 11 we will perform a skin-fold analysis to determine your body-fat composition.  This information is strictly for you to know and will be held in strict confidence. At the end of the CEC you will be assessed again to see just how your body has responded to your clean eating.

BEFORE AND AFTER PHOTOS

Please take photos from the front, back and side at the beginning of the CEC19.1 and then at the end.  If you follow through you will be amazed at your new self.

ENTRY FEE

The cost to participate is $20.  All entry fee money is applied to prizes awarded at the conclusion of the CEC.
