Point System: (Courtesy of CrossFit West Essex)
Each participant begins the day with 5 food points. Points will be deducted as follows:
• small slip: (-1) you are down to 4 food points. Example: small amount (less than a serving) of non-paleo food. (handful of pretzels, some m&m’s, coffee creamer, a few french fries, a couple of gulps of soda or alcohol, regular salad dressing, spoonful of peanut butter or hummus).
• significant slip: (-2) you are down to 3 food points. Example: full serving of non-paleo foods. (regular size bag of M&M’s or candy, small fries at fast food, a beer or glass of wine, serving of crackers, chips or any grains, baked potato, glass of milk, bowl of oatmeal).
• surrender: (-5) Anything more than a significant slip is considered a surrender and all food points for the day are lost. A surrender also constitutes a 35 burpee penalty paid in full after your next workout.
Bonus Points: 2 ways to earn bonus points:
a. Participate in a TF workout in the gym = 1 bonus point (limit 6 per week). (If you have never been to a TF workout, you need to complete the online Genesis course on this website first.)
b. A bonus point will be awarded for each Bible verse memorized on the assessment chart. (Must be marked by a trainer.)
