In switching my diet over to a Zone/ Paleo style, my biggest issue was breakfast. We all know we need to eat it, “It’s the most important meal of the day,” so we’ve been told…yah but that 10 extra min of sleep feels so good! Breakfast food for me, and I’m assuming I’m not alone, has been very carbohydrate heavy, cereal, pancakes, syrup, and my favorite toast with raspberry jam. Here are a few quick zone/ paleo breakfast suggestion that will help you start your day off feeling good.

For all those wanting to get in on the Fight Gone Bad III fundraiser coming up Sept. 27th here is the info:
- To participate: click on FGB III and select to register as part of a team. We are listed as Emerfit near the bottom of the list.
- To donate to one of our athletes on the team: click Donate and type in the persons name and select team Emerfit.
- If you are unfamiliar with the Fight gone bad, here is a quick explanation:
In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. We’ve used this in 3 and 5 round versions. The stations are:
1. Wall-ball: 20 pound ball, 10 ft target. (Reps)
2. Sumo deadlift high-pull: 75 pounds (Reps)
3. Box Jump: 20″ box (Reps)
4. Push-press: 75 pounds (Reps)
5. Row: calories (Calories)
The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. On call of “rotate,” the athlete/s must move to next station immediately for good score. One point is given for each rep, except on the rower where each calorie is one point.
The kids working hard on their own wod after Saturdays CrossFit Total:

More Events For Saturday:We have received lots of questions from those of you that are new to EmerFit about participating in tomorrow’s Total. We have two options for you. One, show up at 9:30 and participate in the Total. We will help you select your weights to keep you safe and you will get to watch everyone lift. Or show up whenever you want to watch the Total and at 11:00 A.M. we will run a workout for those not participating in the total.
In addition, we have heard from a few of you that you are planning to bring your kids. So we will also do a kids only workout at approximately 11:15 A.M.
