“Every moving thing that is alive shall be food for you; I give it all to you, as I gave the green plant.” Genesis 9:3 Let's Start Here The first line of the CrossFit “Fitness in 100 Words” gives us the perfect diet. “Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar.” The Foundation is Nutrition While exercise is important to maintaining a high level of physical fitness, the foundation will always remain nutrition. An athlete can only perform at a level supported by the fuel he intakes, in the same manner that a racecar burns high octane fuel for peak performance. A God Given Plan God gives us the recipe in Genesis. Eat things that move and grow. Donuts don’t bolt for cover when pursued and mac ‘n’ cheese won’t double in size when fertilized. Shop around the exterior of the grocery store where the perishable items are usually refrigerated. Stay away from processed food, sugar and all of the aliases sugar sometimes uses. Rewards for Discipline Many chronic diseases can be mitigated or eliminated through proper nutrition. Make wise choices concerning food and watch energy levels increase, mental acuity rise, and muscles bulge. Use the 80/20 rule. Eat right 80% of the time so you can “cheat” 20% of the time. God has provided everything that we need. Even donuts.
