Chris Coy joined CrossFit Central in December 2009 and is a recent finisher of the I Am CrossFit E.P.O.C. Challenge. Coach Crystal Nelson (http://www.crystaljnelson.blogspot.com/) introduced Chris to the Paleo diet at the beginning of the challenge and he committed to stick to it for the 8 weeks of the competition and plans to continue this new lifestyle. "With the support of JDP (http://www.jdpfit.blogspot.com/) and the crossfit coaches, I can proudly say that I lost 15lbs, 7% body fat and am a size 32 waist. I crushed my I am Crossfit benchmark time going from not finishing to 8:48 minutes." Keep it up, Chris! We are hard at work calculating the winners of the I Am CrossFit E.P.O.C. Challenge!
