2-Year CrossFit Transformation
This Is How My Body Transformed After Doing 2 Years of CrossFit
4
Intermittent fasting was a little difficult at first because I was definitely hungry by 9 or 10 a.m. I slowly worked my way up to waiting until noon for my first meal of the day, and after a few weeks, my body was used to it. I also found that stopping my last meal by 7 p.m. prevented bloat and helped me sleep better, which improved my performance at CrossFit. I was hitting PRs in both my front and back squats, I was running faster, and I was able to move up in dumbbell weight.
What I Ate
Here's an example of a day's worth of food:
I eat a mostly plant-based, whole-foods diet, but do eat eggs a couple times a month (from my friend's backyard chickens). My stomach bloats easily, so I don't drink alcohol and I limit my sugar, refined carb, and whole grain intake, which helps immensely. I also drink about 80 to 100 ounces of water a day.
