GFChris Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I'm a relative newbie to Whole30. Currently on day 13 of my first Whole30.I see a lot of people on the forum talking about doing Crossfit as their form of exercise. What is the connection, if any, of Crossfit to Whole30? Seems coincidental that SO MANY people on the Whole30 are doing Crossfit. Just curious ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikiuw Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Many people who CrossFit adopt the paleo way of eating. It's discussed pretty regularly at CrossFit boxes (gyms are called boxes). Many boxes have Paleo Challenges. I never heard of Paleo until I started CrossFitting. Both are great for getting in shape! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Tom Denham Posted June 10, 2013 Moderators Share Posted June 10, 2013 Long, long ago, Dallas and Melissa Hartwig owned a CrossFit gym. They went on to found the Whole9, create the Whole30, write It Starts With Food... Most nutrition seminars that the Hartwigs have taught since the beginning of the Whole9 were hosted by CrossFit gyms, so they have an established base in the CrossFit community.
