(SAVANNAH, GA) Are you trying to lose weight? Have you been working out since January 1st with little to no progress? Are you doing the same routine you have always done expecting different results this time because you are "serious". Crossfit says, "routine is the enemy." Try to change up what you do (exercises, intensity, duration, etc…) to give your body a new stimulus. Variance in your program can lead to better results and breakthroughs in plateaus. Need help? Go to www.crossfithyperformance.com or sign up for the second lecture in the 2015 Enmark Encourage Health Education Series, "Crossfit, Why and How It Works in Weight Loss," presented by Drew McKenzie, owner and operator with Crossfit Hyperformance on Tuesday, April 28. A free and Healthy lunch will be provided, but RSVPs are required at Healthy Savannah’s website, http://healthysavannah.org/event-signup-form-crossfit/.
