One of our hardest working athletes reached an incredible milestone today -- he dropped under the 300 lb body weight mark for the first time in OVER A DECADE! His name is Aaron, and if you know him, then you know that he's worked his butt off for this! He's worked around injuries and STILL stayed consistent with the WOD -- that just goes to show you that there are NO EXCUSES! Congratulations, Aaron -- you deserve it, my friend! Now, go celebrate...we'll see you back in the box soon!

Wednesday, May 22nd- Making the Switch: A Paleo Snack List By: Danielle Wesse Re-posted from SICFIT.com When you make the switch from eating a modern diet to eating a Paleo diet, it can be difficult to figure out what you will snack on each day. However, with a little forethought and creativity, you can snack to your heart’s content with plenty of Paleo-friendly options. The below list should give you a little inspiration for planning your own snacking options. Enjoy! - Nuts dusted with cinnamon and baked on a low temperature (around 250° Fahrenheit / 120° Celsius) for 10-15 minutes or dusted in a dry skillet. - A banana spread with homemade, Paleo-friendly nut butter of choice. - Hard-boiled egg, sprinkled with black pepper or paprika for a flavor boost. - Sliced raw veggies wrapped in smoked salmon. - Broccoli tossed with olive oil and minced garlic, roast in a 350° Fahrenheit / 180° Celsius oven for 15 minutes. - Deconstructed guacamole salad – Cubed avocado tossed with diced tomatoes, minced red onions and chopped fresh cilantro/coriander. - Homemade or purchased beef jerky. - Apple slices dipped in nut butter. - Larabars. - Olives or pickles. - Pear slices drizzled with honey and sprinkled with cinnamon, bake in oven on 350° Fahrenheit /180° Celsius for 15 minutes. - Sliced vegetables dipped in salsa. - Trail mix made with nuts, dried fruits and pieces. - Fruit and/or veggie smoothies made with coconut milk and nuts. - A few slices of cooked bacon. <------MY FAVORITE!! - Pitted peach sprinkled with a small amount of grated ginger and baked for 5 minutes or until tired. - Kale chips made by lightly coating kale leaves in olive oil and placing flat on a lined baking tray. Cook in the oven (approximately 250° Fahrenheit / 120° Celsius) for 15-20 minutes until crisp. - A can of tuna. - A cup of meat or vegetable stock. - Fruit kabobs – cubes of fresh pineapple, kiwi fruit, strawberries and orange wedges threaded onto bamboo skewers. - Quick banana ice-cream made by processing a frozen banana and some coconut milk or almond milk in a blender until creamy. - A kid favorite snack “ants on a log” made by spreading nut butter of choice on a celery stalk and topped with raisins. - Skillet toasted or oven roasted seeds, including pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds. Here is a bonus for you: Quick and Mini-Meals Snacks for an on-the-go Premium fuel source. - Smoked salmon + honeydew, watermelon or cantaloupe melon + avocado slices - Deli turkey slices + sliced pepper and cucumber + homemade guacamole - Hard boiled eggs + blueberries and raspberries + coconut milk or shredded coconut - Avocado deviled eggs + jicama sticks - Roasted peppers stuffed with tuna and capers - Chicken + salsa + guacamole ALL stuffed inside 1/2 raw green pepper - Canned or packed salmon + chopped celery + carrots, peppers and onions - Chicken or turkey slices + carrot slivers + jicama slivers and guacamole ALL wrapped in a lettuce leaf. - Chicken sausage + apple + nut butter - Broccoli Slaw (from TJ’s) + diced/sliced chicken + olive oil and herb dressing - Shrimp cocktail on lettuce leaf Fitness- 5 rounds (Rest as needed) Max reps DB Thrusters 30lbs/15lbs Max time FLR (front leaning rest) Sport- 5 thrusters 185/ 125 Airdyne sprint 15s @95% Rest 3 min x5 + Prowler push 180# 50 meters @100% Rest 2:30 x5
