Nutrition Notes:  Day 9/40.  Are you getting enough fiber in your diet? Most nutritionists will recommend 25-40 grams of fiber per day – from real food sources – to keep your gut happy (and to keep things moving along). Currently, dietary fiber intake among adults in the U.S. averages about 15 grams a day. Fiber is found in plant foods, such as vegetables, nuts and seeds, and legumes. Eating the skin or peel of fruits and vegetables provides a greater dose. Look back at a few days in your eating journal and try to calculate how much fiber you’re eating. If you think you may be low, here are a few challenge-friendly foods that are naturally high in fiber:

  • 1 cup fresh raspberries (8 grams)
  • 1 medium pear with skin (5.5 grams)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (5.5 grams)
  • 1/2 cup (dry) old fashioned rolled oats (5 grams)
  • 1 medium apple with skin (4.5 grams)
  • 1 medium banana (3 grams)
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries (3.5 grams)
  • ½ medium avocado (5 grams)
  • 1 ounce almonds (3.5 grams)
Tip: One of our favorite ways to get fiber is to add 1 tablespoon chia seeds and 1/2 cup blueberries to a bowl of oatmeal (1/2 c dry). This adds up to 41g carb, 7g fat, and 7g protein, with 14g fiber. When increasing fiber, be sure to do it gradually and consume plenty of water.

    This is one of my favorite workouts. Why? Because handstand push-ups do not come easy for me. In fact, they are my nightmare…as in I have literally dreamed about them crushing my soul. And that’s why I love this workout. Ultimately, it emphasizes the bigger picture of what CrossFit is all about. Improving upon your weaknesses. Consistently becoming a better version of you without concerning yourself with how the person next to you scored. Not letting one movement dictate whether or not you show up for yourself to become better each and every day. We’re after progress, not perfection. Let’s get after it, ICA!!

    Ricky, I love this comment. One day I will get HSPU’s. Until recently I was terrified to be inverted. Show up, do the work, be consistent and the results will follow. “There’s no growing in your comfort zone and no comfort in your growing zone.”
