All the details you need about the Vertex Nutrition Program can be found here: Get Started with Vertex Nutrition.

For this article, I’d like to share the experience of two individuals who worked through the program and had some pretty remarkable success.

As of article’s publishing, Christina has been a member at CrossFit Vertex for seven years. She’s a consistent gym goer and works hard. Over the course of three months, Christina lost almost 30 pounds .

What was your favorite part of the Vertex Nutrition program?
“I gained knowledge on a healthier lifestyle. I feel like I’ve built long lasting, good habits .”

What was the process like? How often did you speak with your nutrition coach?
“I spoke with Kaleena (nutrition coach) 2-3 times a week.  We used My Fitness Pal to track Macronutrients. I also used other resources that Kaleena provided, and chatted with other gym members for healthy recipes and food blogs that they used in the past.”

What were your Macronutrient numbers, and did they change?
“My numbers were 185 grams of Carbs, 55 grams of Fats, and 130 grams of Proteins. They didn’t change at all over the three months.”

It’s been two months, are you still using the same numbers? If so, how are you feeling?
“Yes, the numbers are the same. I’m maintaining weight and have tons of energy . Kaleena supplied different numbers if in the future I want to trim some more weight. I feel like I can do that on my own .”

Do you eat meat?
“Yes, chicken, turkey, ham & ground beef were my go-tos.”

Was there anything you didn’t get at first?  It took you a few times to figure out?
“Sometimes filling all my Protein macros was hard. But Kaleena offered great suggestions. At times, I used protein chips, RX bars, protein waffles and pancakes, protein pasta and wraps.”

In one word, how did the Vertex Nutrition Program make you feel?
“Motivated.”

As of this article’s publishing, Angie has been a member at CrossFit Vertex for almost ten years!! She truly is a CrossFit Vertex OG and one of our finest ambassadors. Over the course of three months, Angie lost almost 20 pounds.

What was your favorite part of the Vertex Nutrition program?
“SUPPORT AND GUIDANCE! Kaleena was always available with tips, ideas, and suggestions. She checked in often and was the best cheerleader . Also, I wasn’t limited in what I could eat…and I LOVE to eat! My goal numbers were easy to hit and I wasn’t hungry . The numbers didn’t change, so I never felt like I was being deprived or starved. Overall, my energy levels skyrocketed , which improved my workouts and workday. I became the best version of ME! I FEEL FANTASTIC!”

What tools did you use for tracking?  What were your numbers?
“We used My Fitness Pal and my numbers were 155 grams of carbs, 45 grams of fat, and 120 grams of proteins.”

Have you stepped on a scale lately?  If so, how’s it looking?
“This morning, actually! Looks good. I’m still within three pounds of my final weigh in.”

In one word, how did the Vertex Nutrition Program make you feel?
“Energized.”

Angie’s Results: down almost 20 pounds, energy levels skyrocketed, improved performance in workouts, and was never limited on what she could eat.
