What Are You Bringing to the Paleo Potluck?
Written by C.J. Martin

The Paleo Potluck is almost here. On Saturday night at 6:30 p.m. we will be hosting our first CrossFit Invictus family get-together since our Grand Opening. We’re rockin’ this thing caveman style and kicking off our own little Paleo Challenge. You don’t have to commit to following a Paleo diet to attend, but we will have a short presentation summarizing some of the potential benefits of following a Paleo – or better yet, a Paleo/Zone – diet. But more importantly, we will have lots of delicious foods from Paleo cookbooks for everyone to grub out on, and you’ll have a chance to hang out with other members of the Invictus family without exercise-induced anxiety.

Please let us know, either in the blog comments or on the whiteboard or both, what you intend to bring. Your CrossFit Invictus coaches will do their best to fill in the gaps if we seem to be missing food groups. And please, bring your friends and family. You do not have to be a member of CrossFit Invictus to join in on the fun.

For those of you who do not know about or are skeptical about the benefits of the Paleo Diet (authored by Loren Cordain), talk to one of the Invictus coaches. For amazing pictorial evidence of the benefits of following a Paleo Diet, check out the results after just 7 weeks of the Paleo Challenge put on by our friends Robb and Nicki at CrossFit NorCal - http://www.norcalsc.com/index.php/post/just_7_weeks/.
