THE 2012 REEBOK CROSSFIT OPEN COMMENCES TODAY - GOOD LUCK TO ALL OUR COMPETITORS.

People often look for a quick fix for weight loss, but the truth is keeping your diet clean and training consistently is the only thing that really works. You need to develop good habits with your training and diet, which can realistically be maintained once you reach your goal weight. A number of members from CrossFit Norwest in Castle Hill have experienced fantastic weight loss numbers for these reasons - they were prepared to clean up their diet (while still enjoying nights out with family and friends), and get to the box and put in 100% regularly.

At CrossFit Norwest we offer a supportive, performance driven environment which allows you to meet your specific goals - whether they be weight loss, sports specific or CrossFit specific goals. Our training based on high intensity interval and strength work - HEART RATE is key, if we speed the body up, you burn more calories, just as a vehicle burns more fuel. By performing interval workouts you can push your body to 100% each time, knowing that there is a rest period in the middle.

It is important to remember that nutrition is largely the KEY to achieving your weight loss goals, we've heard it all before but you really can't outrain a bad diet. At CrossFit Norwest we advocate the Paleo Diet, but go with what works for you, just KEEP IT CLEAN. Avoid anything processed, limit your carbohydrates to a post WOD meal/snack (e.g. sweet potato), avoid excess sugar (i.e. keep fruit to a minimum and avoid soft drinks!!) and eat high quality food products (these are better for you and will more importantly keep you fuller for longer). It's also important to remember to consume lots of water, particularly if you're exercising regularly - hunger can often be a sign of dehydration so drink up people!
