Scoring:
Four Points: (100% Compliance) Paleo - You are a hunter-gatherer (meat, veggies, some fruit, nuts and seeds).

Three Points: (99% Compliance) One time during the day, you had a little something that wasn't Paleo, but wasn't horrible. For example, some peanuts, green beans, or hummus, a little cream in your coffee.

Two Points: (90-98% Compliance) You slipped...but didn't get hurt. You had a small amount of "not real food". Maybe it was a good day, but you couldn't resist having a beer at the family BBQ, or you finished your kids' mac 'n cheese, but the rest of your day was solid.

One Point: (80-89% Compliance) Most of your day was on track, but there was one full meal that you fell off the wagon. Maybe it was the rolls at dinner, a sandwich, pasta, a soda, juice or bag of popcorn, two slices of pizza, or a drink or two...Not three.

Zero Points: You had a bad day and made more than one solid mistake. Three drinks, dessert, a couple slices of pizza or more than one processed meal. You have no idea how many calories you ate and forget about the fat... that piece of cake did you in.

BONUS POINTS:
1. You get one extra bonus point for everyday you work out for more than 45 minutes. The benefits of a healthy diet are magnified when combined with training program that combines constantly varied, high intensity, functional movements. You may only earn 1 bonus workout point per day. Train Hard. Eat Clean.

2. You get one bonus point for every hour of sleep OVER 9 hours (this is total hours of sleep within a 24 hour period... naps count).
