Announcing the CFSP 30 Day Total Life Challenge!
It’s been a really, really long time since we’ve done any type of nutrition challenge here and there’s a reason for that. In past challenges we saw participants lose 20-30 pounds in a month. And while that’s great I didn’t feel good about the likelihood of those participants keeping the weight off in the long term.
While a challenge puts a framework and expectation on duration; sustainable habits and honest introspection (the really important stuff) are much harder to implement. Couple that with the fact that I believe most “diets” that come with a fancy title are largely bullshit ways to sell books, it’s been hard for me to get behind something for 30 days that we could do as a group.
After some brainstorming I’ve come up with challenge I am truly excited about; 30 days of lifestyle and nutrition tweaks that will make you a fitter, trimmer, healthier and better you.
How are we going to do this?
Starting on Tuesday, January 23rd, we’ll meet weekly for one hour on a variety of health and lifestyle topics. We’ll have a private Facebook group where each week’s presentation will be uploaded that night.
Each week we’ll roll out a new set of habits. You’ll implement those habits and score yourself on how you did.
You’ll record your progress in your scoring journal (that we will provide).
During our weekly meetings we’ll discuss the best ways to approach these habits, why they’re important and we’ll talk about common problems that we see when clients try to tackle them.
For a preview, the first set of habits are:
– Log your food
– Get your workouts in
– Put down your phone.
Three things that have been major talking points for almost anyone I’ve talked to over the last couple of weeks. The theme will follow for the duration of the program.
Each week, we will unveil new habits that will build on the first three.
Oh yeah, and there will be scoring implications for both sugar and alcohol intake, as those seem to be recurring in conversations as well.
Approaching a challenge in this way ensures that by the end of the month, you’re a more awesome you.
Yes, I hope you lose weight if that’s your goal (we’ll be taking measurements and before and after photos), but (even more so) I want you to develop habits that will last far beyond 30 days, habits that you’ll be able to practice for the rest of your life.
And, because we like a bit of friendly competition around here there will be prizes based on the highest scores from the 4 weeks.
