CFK WEEKLY: AUG 23

The final full week of August is here! Wild! This month flew by as many of us are getting back to our routines. Oh! & we FINALLY have our AC up and running... I am sure we are all so excited about that!

FREE Nutrition Workshop — Let’s Make Nutrition Simple!

Good nutrition doesn’t have to be complicated, restrictive, or overwhelming. Join us Saturday, August 29th between CrossFit classes for a FREE nutrition workshop open to all of our members, plus your friends and family! We’ll keep it simple and practical as we talk about macros, how to use the Macrostax app, and easy food swaps that help you choose foods with fewer and cleaner ingredients. Our philosophy is simple: it’s not one meal, one weekend, or one food that determines your health... it’s what you chronically consume that has the biggest impact on your overall wellness. If we can swap just one product that you have daily for a healthier choice, we can instantly start improving your wellness. This often looks like a healthier salad dressing, coffee creamer, peanut butter, breads, etc. Come learn a few simple strategies you can actually use in your everyday life (grocery shopping, food prep, and the app), ask questions, and bring someone with you!

No experience necessary, no perfect diet required... just come ready to learn!

If you decide that you would like some continued support as you work towards your nutritional goals, this workshop will also act as a kick off for our 30-Day Nutrition Challenge. We will officially begin on Tuesday, September 1st and run through Wednesday, September 30th, where we’ll put these simple habits into action together.

In 4 weeks you will notice.

In 8 weeks your closest friends and family will too!

In 12 weeks it will be undeniable that you have improved your health! The 3 months will pass either way... you get to decide what the outcome is going to look like starting now :) Hope to see you on Saturday morning at 9 am.
