    Nutrition Recharge Gameplan (NRG)
    : The sun is out, it’s almost beach season, tanks tops and shorts are in your weekly rotation, and it’s time to do a little recharge of what you’re putting into your body.  Like our last challenge (Jan 2021), you will have the opportunity to earn points for eating veggies (6 cups per day = 6 points), getting 7+ hours of sleep, working out (anywhere), and drinking water (1/2 your bodyweight in ounces). HOWEVER, consuming alcohol, sugar, and processed foods will have an effect on your daily scores. Details and Sign Up HERE.
  • May Movement of the Month: Pull Ups!
    Get ready for the bar muscle up clinic and Memorial Day Murph with extra pull up work! Coach Michele put together a training plan that only requires 2 days/week of extra work. The extra work includes strict pull ups (with or without a band) and accessory work for your shoulders. If you can do 5×5 strict without a band, do chest to bar pull ups. Worksheets can be found/stored at the front desk in the designated envelope.
  • May Clinic: Bar Muscle Ups
    Join us Friday, May 21st at 6pm. If you have kipping pull ups or banded bar muscle ups, this clinic will teach you the techniques needed to advance to the next progression.
  • Memorial Day Murph: Mon 5/31 at 7a, 8:15 + 9:30
    Programming this month will be geared toward building pull up, push up, squat and run volume for the workout Murph. Murph is a 1 mile run, 100 pull ups, 200 push ups, 300 squats, followed by another mile run.

Nutrition Recharge Gameplan (NRG)

NRG

For those new to Daybreak (and as a reminder for you Daybreak vets), our nutrition challenges are never about crash diets, temporary habits nor unsustainable routines. It’s about educating and exposing you to different ways of eating so that you can choose the best nutritional structure that works into your and your family’s daily routine. In other words, it’s about balance. While we’ll be more structured during the challenge by throwing in some points to keep you motivated, we’re hopefully creating some habits that can last you long after the challenge is over.

GOALS OF THIS CHALLENGE
The sun is out, it’s almost beach season, tanks tops and shorts are in your weekly rotation, and it’s time to do a little recharge of what you’re putting into your body. Welcome to the Nutrition Recharge Gameplan (NRG)! Unlike our last challenge, there WILL be eliminated foods and loss of points. Points are earned by making healthy choices like eating vegetables, drinking water, working out and getting sleep. And points are lost by having sugar, alcohol, and/or processed foods. Let’s dive in!

DATES YOU NEED TO KNOW

The NRG starts Saturday, May 1, and runs through Friday, May 28th.

DETAILS

The EVERYDAY:

  • Eat vegetables
    • Spinach, kale, swiss chard, lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes, cucumbers, radishes, carrots, zucchini, yellow squash, peppers, potatoes, butternut squash, sweet potatoes, etc.
  • Drink half your bodyweight in ounces of water
    • 120lb x 0.5 = 60# = 60 ounces of water per day
  • Get 7 hours of sleep
    • Naps count toward your total for the day
  • Move your body
    • At Daybreak, at home, anywhere!
  • NO Sugar, Alcohol or Processed Foods

KEEPING SCORE

Throughout the 28 Day NRG you have the potential to earn the following daily points

  • Eating Cups of Veggies – 1 point per cup with a max of 6 points
  • Drinking half your bodyweight in ounces of water – 1 point
  • Getting 7 hours of sleep – 1 point
  • Working out – 1 point

That’s 9 Potential Points per Day!

If you eat 4 cups of veggies (4 points), drink half your bodyweight in ounces of water (1 point), get at least 7 hours of sleep (1 point) and you workout (1 point),  you EARN 7 points. If you have 6+ cups of veggies but don’t get enough water, sleep, and no workout for the day, you still earn 6 points!

What if you have sugar, alcohol, and/or processed foods?

  • Added Sugar (except honey/maple syrup) – lose 1 point
  • Alcohol – lose 1 point
  • Processed Food – lose 1 point
    • Packaged, boxed, bagged, etc., items that tend to be in the middle aisles at grocery stores, and are non-perishable. Also items (and ingredient lists) that cannot be identified outside of nature (ex: cookies, candies, chips, some cereals, frozen novelties, etc.,)

A perfect score at the end of the NRG is 252 points!

WOD GUIDANCE & GOALS
Oh yes, it’s happening, we have an up/down ladder!! The key here is to not go too hot out the gate. Burpee sets should be at a moderate pace, so you can take one deep breath and pick up your front squat bar. The first set of front squats should be unbroken, the other sets you may have to break 6/3 and 6/6 or 6/3/3. Chip away at the chest to bar pull ups, but challenge yourself to do straight sets on at least the set of 6 and maybe even the set of 9. Target 10 minutes.

WOD GUIDANCE & GOALS
To save your arms on the handstand push ups, break the set of 10 into 5/5 or 4/3/3 reps. Choose a weight for the hang cleans that you can cycle for at least 5 reps, if not unbroken. Then take a deep breath and try to do the double under in one straight set. Once you have completed the first triplet for three rounds, take exactly a one minute rest before starting the second triplet. The second triplet will be faster with kipping hspu, and a shorter range of motion with the shoulder to overhead (do jerks to save shoulders). Target 10 minutes for both triplets.
