Sarah F.’s Amazing Progress!

By: 0

Today I'd like to shout out Sarah F. for being an awesome person who is dedicated and willing to put in the work to achieve her goals.
 
In our line of work we see lots of people who want to go to heaven, but aren't willing to die to get there, metaphorically speaking. Not Sarah.
 
She's one of the most dedicated people I've ever worked with. She's committed to her goals, and she sticks with the program even when it involves hard work and effort. On top of it all, she's a super nice and sweet person.
 
Since signing up for our 6-Month Functional Diagnostic Nutrition program a couple months ago she has:
 
-Lost 32lbs and 5 inches off her waist
-Back-squatted 200lbs
-Deadlifted 225lbs
-Strict pressed 85lbs
-Done no push burpees on the floor instead of on a plate
-Shaved 1:00 min off her 55 cal row
-Completed 8 hanging knee raises from the bar
-Bench Pressed 105
-Felt the best she has ever felt mind, body, and spirit in the past 2.5 yrs.
-Felt on top of the world.
 
Congrats on all your progress Sarah, we're all super proud of you!
If you or someone you know is looking to get healthy in the new year, you can set up a free 30min meeting to discuss your health and wellness goals with CFSB Head Nutrition Coach Robby Gustin with the following link.

Weather Emergencies

By: 0

HEY!
 
Now that there is snow sticking to the ground...
 
There aren't a ton of times we will cancel the gym
 
The times we will cancel classes are...
 
When we are told by the authorities that there is a state of emergency, like when it was -30 a few years ago or when there was the big ice storm..or when we were snowed in so that no one could physically get out of the driveway...
 
Or
 
If it just looks like a bad idea and it's not worth people getting in accidents over a crossfit workout
 
so remember, it will be posted here to the members group ahead of time! so make sure you are paying attention!

Margaret and CFSB’s New You Challenge

By: 0

Participating in this program is easily one of the best decisions I've made towards achieving my health and fitness goals. The program was well balanced covering exercise, diet, as well as lifestyle habits. The coaches were dedicated, not just in teaching the group classes, but in catering to individual questions and needs outside of the gym. I was initially taken aback by the honesty and frankness, but I came to appreciate the no bullshit attitude. There were no empty promises about amazing results and the responsibility of following the program was placed solely on the participant; the coaches were there to coach, not to drag me along kicking and screaming. Consciously taking full ownership of my health was an important choice the New You Challenge helped me to make. Whether I met my initial goals or not, I know I've taken steps in a direction I want to go. Woo!

Timika’s Story-Getting Healthy as a New Mom

By: 0

Are you looking to looking to lose weight, be healthy again, and kick ass at life? Spots are still available for our one-on-one nutrition coaching program here at CrossFit South Bend this coming January. Throughout this coming month and into early  January we'll be reposting some of our all-time best testimonials from the Wellness Wednesday vault. These videos are meant to demonstrate that anyone, no matter what life situation, can change their life and health for the better with one-on-one nutrition coaching. In this video, Timika tells us about her experience with our 90-day nutrition coaching program with a special guest, her beautiful daughter Kiya. Timika did an amazing job with our 90-day nutrition coaching program. She really put a lot of effort into it, and the results speak for themselves. -She's back in her pre-baby clothes. She's even back in the clothes she was wearing before she got married. -Her cravings improved significantly. -Even more importantly, she feels confident that she can eat this way the vast majority of the time for the rest of her life, which is fantastic. I think Timika is a great example of how it's possible, even as a new mom, to eat healthy, and get back to fitting into the clothes you want to fit into.
