Paleo Challenge kicks off Monday. A non-mandatory but strongly suggested meeting is tomorrow @ 12pm. It will go until class @ 1pm. Sign up and get ready to roll! Logging starts Monday, testing starts Tuesday!
Paleo Challenge Tests and Dates:
Tuesday, September 9: 100 Burpees for Time
Friday, September 12: 1 rep max Back Squat

Last day for testing to be allowed is Friday, September 19 (makeups must be cleared beforehand but can be done in class during a different WOD)
Those of you who aren’t doing the Paleo Challenge are probably tired of hearing about it but really it is just my tactic of getting you to do it. There is a lot that you might not know when entering a Paleo Challenge but we want you to know that everyone in our community, from myself and the coaching staff to your fellow Landos, are your information source. Lean on us and each other to get through it and ASK QUESTIONS!!! The meeting will be a HUGE help if you can make it or even if you have to rearrange things to do so, get it done. If you absolutely cannot make it we will be videoing it and there will be a packet handed out and available with everything you need to know.
To sweeten the deal of getting you to make the commitment or at least give you all some comedy during the 45 days of paleoness, I will be documenting my quest for all of you to see right here on the Lando blog. It will be a no holds barred view into my mind, body, and soul as I finally reverse the course of my fat assedness that has gripped my life the past 16 months. It promises to be enlightening, educational, entertaining, and probably very sad all at the same time. My first entry will be Sunday night with pictures and all. Stay tuned.
