Nutrition Lab Schedule:

We are pleased to announce our 2024 Nutrition Lab Schedule! We have front-loaded the calendar in January and February to offering you two nutrition classes.  We have refreshed and improved each of the modules for 2024 making the concepts easier to learn and implement.

Nutrition Lab is a fuel-first nutrition workshop designed to power your CrossFit workouts, promote weight loss, and help you build serious muscle. More importantly, Nutrition Lab places a heavy emphasis on clean and healthy eating, eschewing the use of all unhealthy shortcuts and habits.
