<p>This is the menu Leonie has suggested:</p>
<p>Roast turkey, Salmon, Baked Ham, Lemon Chicken<br />
Tomato olive and rocket salad<br />
Broccoli fetta and cashew nut salad<br />
Cucumber and Melon salad<br />
(Pitta pockets)<br />
Selection fresh fruits</p>
<p>€14</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>CrossFit exposes your weaknesses. Sometimes they&#8217;re the more &#8216;obvious&#8217; physical characteristics of lack of speed, lack of strength, lack of endurance. Other times they&#8217;re a lack of mental focus to get under that heavy clean or perseverance to keep going in a 5K row. What we often tend to forget is how CrossFit will expose and punish your weaknesses in your physical make up, your flexibility and mobility. If you&#8217;re busting your gut on the gym floor but won&#8217;t invest the time in learning how to open up those nasty tight hips or stubborn shoulders, you&#8217;re like a Ferrari with the handbrake on. Imagine how much faster, stronger, fitter, leaner and healthier you&#8217;d be if you attacked these issues with the determination you attack a 21-15-9? If you haven&#8217;t taken part in our <a href="http://www.crossfit.ie/events/mobility-workshop/">mobility workshop</a> yet, you should really consider it.</p>
<p>Workout of the Day:<br />
Strength &#8211; Squat</p>
<p>then<br />
50 Burpee Pull Ups, for time</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Reminder: Tomorrow is <a href="http://crossfit.ie/events/bring-a-friend-day/">Bring a Friend Day</a>, from 10.30 onwards. If your&#8217;e bringing a friend, feel free to show up a little early so we can get waivers out of the way. If you&#8217;re not signed up to bring a friend down, we won&#8217;t be able to fit you in tomorrow. Thanks!</strong></p>
<p><strong>Second Reminder: We are painting the gym walls today, don&#8217;t lean anywhere!!!</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Lets get one thing out of the way – the paleo challenge is not easy.  Its is certainly interesting but not easy!  But then again nothing good is ever easy!!  One of the biggest factors in being able to stick to the challenge over the last few weeks in the need to plan and be organized.  If you can plan out your meals, get the ingredients in and make time to do the cooking, then you are flying, but it’s the evenings that you come home are tired after a days work or a workout and there is little or no paleo friendly food in the cupboard that could be (and sometimes nearly was) the breaking point. </p>
<p>For me the craving of banned foods wasn’t too bad, after the first couple of days.  It was the headaches that came from the lack of processed sugar that was nearly a killer, lots and lots of water is the only cure.</p>
<p>Reading over this, I am not actually painting a very positive picture of the paleo challenge,  but as I said at the beginning it is worth it – I have rediscovered that I am actually a pretty mean cook, my skin and completion is a lot brighter, I can actually change my eating habits!! But the best of all for me is that the scales are moving in the right direction for once!!!</p>
<p>- Orla</p></blockquote>
<p>Workout of the Day:<br />
Strength &#8211; Your Choice</p>
<p>then<br />
&#8220;Kettlebell Komplex&#8221;<br />
Using one kettlebell, perform the following sequence<br />
5 Suitcase deadlifts<br />
5 Cleans<br />
5 Front Squats<br />
5 Push Presses<br />
5 Overhead Squats<br />
This is one round. Then switch arms. Perform as many rounds as possible in 15 minutes. Post rounds/partial rounds to comments.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Saturday, September 4th sees our <a href="http://crossfit.ie/events/mobility-workshop/" target="_blank">Mobility Course</a> return, new and improved! Saturday, September 11th we&#8217;ve an <a href="http://crossfit.ie/events/olympic-lifting-workshop/" target="_blank">Olympic Lifting</a> course on too. These are great for everyone to bring their performance to the next level, and vital for those Invitational bound in September.</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Embarking on the paleo challenge was a big deal &#8211; Will pointed out from the getgo that this was not going to be an easy challenge! What has surprised me most is that I actually dont miss the vast majority of the foods on the &#8216;banned list&#8217; &#8211; I have had no cravings for bread, pasta etc. The major difficulty has been adjusting to planning meals in advance, being organised and trying to learn to cook proper food! I have also really missed Coke, Lucozade, &#8217;sports drinks&#8217; etc &#8211; I did not realise how addicted I was to sugar &#8211; quite worrying. The result so far have been worth it &#8211; down 10 pounds in 15 days and looking forward to the final weigh-in and the dreaded Fran. &#8211; <em>Darren</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Workout of the Day:<br />
Strength &#8211; Squat</p>
<p>then<br />
&#8220;Nicole&#8221;<br />
As Many Rounds as Possible in 20 Minutes of:<br />
Run 400m<br />
Max Pull Ups</p>

<p>That last link might be a bit cruel for those on the Paleo Challenge. Are you going to go back to regular eating after the challenge is over? Are you going to have a weekend gorge and then get back on the wagon? What&#8217;s your plan?</p>
