The meaning behind it
skill
Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds. From the perspective of ingredients, CrossFit officials suggest that you eat more ingredients that are already in nature and eat less refined artificial food. Ice cream obviously doesn't grow from the ground. In terms of nutrition, protein, vitamins and healthy fat are the main products. The suggestion of "with some fruit" is just right. I suggest you eat fruit in moderation. Eating a whole durian or 3 kg of cherries at a time is obviously not the right amount. Vitamins are good, but the sugar and calories in fruits are not low. More importantly, you will unconsciously take too much and feel that there is no burden.
The meaning behind it

The only food explicitly rejected in the official proposal of "no sugar, no sugar" is sugar. "Sugar" here refers to artificially added sugar. Fruit itself contains sugar, which is inevitable; But adding sugar to chocolate cake is another matter. Therefore, everyone should try to eat less "added sugar" or even not.

The last sentence "Control the intake at a level that supports training but does not increase body fat" is very crucial, and it also positively answers the questions of many fitness enthusiasts: How much should I eat? Even if you choose the right ingredients, your intake should be reasonable. A reasonable intake standard is that it can support your daily activities and exercise to restore your body, but there will be no extra calories to make you fat.

Therefore, the most difficult part of CrossFit's official dietary advice is the last sentence. How can we get the right diet to help you become stronger without getting fat? This is related to your own basal metabolic rate, daily work and life calorie consumption, training intensity and capacity, and physical recovery ability. To truly understand these problems, we need to accumulate experience in daily diet and training. By making a diet plan and training plan, combining with physical feedback (weight fluctuation, body fat rate, mental state, physical fatigue) and other factors, and constantly adjusting, you can finally find a balance point of dietary intake, which will help you become stronger without getting fat.
