CrossFit Sixth City

It's the first week of January and that means one thing - gyms everywhere are about to meet a bunch of people motivated to conquer their new years resolutions.  Did you create one?  If you did, is your plan to lose weight, get stronger, get healthier, lower your markers and try and lessen the impact your diabetes is having on you?  Or, is it something ridiculous like try and clean 300 lbs when you're currently only cleaning 100 lbs? Whatever your goal, chances are you have made a resolution for 2017.  Well, screw your new years resolutions .  Yep, you read that right.  Screw your new years resolutions.  I realize this is a seemingly super negative point-of-view, and if you know me that should throw you off.  But... If you have a resolution for this year you probably had one for 2016 and 2015, and maybe even as far back as 2000.  Look back, give yourself an honest assessment and count how many times your resolution has been success...

Congratulations to Neil Ningard on winning CSC's last Sweatiest Angel award for 2016! The Sweatiest Angel award is given each month to a CSC member who displays significant work ethic, a willingness to support others and a true sense of camaraderie inside the gym.  Neil came to CSC like a lot of guys who enjoy lifting do - with a lot of upper body strength and in seek of some lower body conditioning.  Since joining CSC, Neil has increased his lower body strength significantly, his conditioning, mobility and range of motion significantly, and even increased his already impressive upper body strength with a 385 lb bench press and 235 lb strict press.  And the most impressive part is that he's done it with an awesome work ethic and a giant smile on his face.  Congrats Neil, we love having you as a member!     How long have you been doing CrossFit?
