CrossFit Training Week of March 22, 2010

How about a statistic this week? Statistics are great. One size fits many… “Obesity rates have remained constant for at least five years among men and for closer to 10 years among women and children according to the current data.” “34% of adults are obese, 17% of children are hitting the obesity mark and  68 percent of adults and nearly 33% of children are considered at least overweight.” New York Times Jan. 13, 2010

Isn’t that great news? And the worst thing is that it can happen to anyone. You don’t need a predisposition to obesity or have it in your DNA to be a little overweight. You can simply be out of shape. I know that we believe that a bike ride every spring or a quick walk to McDonald’s counts as our exercise for the year but if that’s the level of your commitment to loosing the pounds then you might need a harder kick in the rear end!

Don’t come to the gym to simply try your luck. Come to set some goals, learn to train real-time, and improve your life.

Here’s what is happening this week in the training gym at ATT Altitude!
