Repost from one of our owners: Bryan Laudermilch

——

As 2020 comes to a close, I reflect on what the past year has taught me. Safe to say we have all learned to be more resilient, more adaptable to our environment and our circumstances - we continue to show up, overcome and forge ahead.

This year has shined a spotlight on our health - and the importance of proactively taking care of ourselves! For those that don’t know...in October, amidst a global pandemic, I (along with my wife and friends) decided to buy a gym. Given the landscape, many questioned the decision. Surely I already had enough on my plate with a growing family and busy career in healthcare.

For me, it was about purpose, giving, creating. An opportunity to be a steward for the community - to lead and be an advocate for health & wellness. You get the point.

Like health, life is about taking ownership in order to create and be the best version of you. Yes, there is a lot we can’t control. More importantly - there’s a lot that we can!

If you want the next chapter to be a better read, I have attached a goal-setting template and tools to help you design the life you want. This is given to our gym members to help create a vision, goals and action plan to get results. Use it as you see fit. The framework is there. My hope is you accomplish your goals in 2021 and live a happier, healthier life.

If you have any questions regarding your health & fitness, please don’t hesitate to reach out. If I cannot answer them for you, I will put you in touch with someone who can. Don’t wish to be healthier this coming year. Take action!

At CrossFit Hershey, we have the coaches, expertise and fitness & nutrition programs to help you be a better version of you. We have an entire community supporting one another's journey and celebrating each others’ successes.

Here’s to a better you in 2021! I wish you all the best! 🎯💪🏻👊🏻

This past weekend, 14 CrossFit Hershey members competed at an event hosted by CrossFit Gamma to benefit local animals at Homeward Bound Animal Rescue. Out of four local boxes, CrossFit Hershey raised the most money coming in at $1,642! In return for raising the most money, we won a ski erg to add to our current family of ski ergs!!! 🤗

Our community continues to amaze us every single day. Leading you is truly an honor💙 THANK YOU again to all that donated, competitors that participated, spectators that came to cheer us on, and CrossFit Gamma for inviting us to such an awesome event to support an amazing cause! #crossfitcommunity #locallove

The Heart, Part 11: Myocardial Remodeling and Salvage

Need another reason to try out CrossFit Hershey?

"How could one induce and titrate the dose of cardiac hypoxia needed to drive angiogenesis? Exercise. Low doses of exercise have been demonstrated to enhance collateralization in both healthy and diseased hearts. One can conjecture that programmed and regular higher intensity exercise that pushes an athlete into more profound and transient systemic hypoxia may be effective in driving collateral growth and protecting the heart from future damage. While we can assemble a strong data-driven argument to support this conjecture, most research in this area is performed on ponies, pigs, and rats, who generally don’t or won’t do CrossFit in the laboratory."

Since the ponies and pigs won't try it out, we propose that YOU do your best to avoid heart attacks by giving it a shot and optimizing your position to fight such devastation!

It's a good day for an obstacle course warm up with Coach Lauren!

Four of our CFH members participated in a great competition this weekend. 2 Days of workouts... Thanks to Chaka Crossfit for hosting!

Congrats to Elise, Kevin, Richard and Justin for a job well done. All 3 of these gentlemen took FIRST place in their respective divisions and we could not be more proud. It's always our goal to model sportsmanship and be respectable competitors - and we know these four represented us well.

Great job, gang! Way to go!!!!!

Lots of hard work this week... so it's time for a 'regen' day! Thursday is all about dialing it back, working out those sore spots and recovering well.

Then tomorrow we get after it again!!

**HERO Workout = Workout with Emotional Purpose**

We had one great partner workout this week already... but tomorrow brings another. This time, it will honor the lives of the First Responders who perished in their heroic efforts on 9/11. Always remember!

Rather than wish we had been healthy when illness, accident or pandemic occur, our members are doing their best to prepare their bodies and minds for whatever lies ahead.

You may have heard the Abe Lincoln quote, “If I had nine hours to chop down a tree, I’d spend the first six sharpening my axe.” We liken our pursuit to this concept and wisdom. It is far better to be diligent and proactive here and now - than to be full of regret later (and have an uphill battle to fight).

If you would like to improve the state of your overall health by working alongside likeminded individuals who can help you to become more healthy, please contact us! We all start somewhere and are on our journey towards Impoved Health!

If you have been feeling isolated or alone, please consider a place that will accept you and welcome you with open arms.

Many of our members have struggled through difficult times of life, trials, health concerns, and heartache... but have felt the amazing support of this CFH family. We are better together. Won't you join us?

Why Does CrossFit Make You Feel Good? | BOXROX

CrossFit might not be the cure to all of life’s problems, but it certainly will make you feel good. This feeling of elation can be traced back to a couple of reasons:

-The release of “positive” hormones during exercise
-Benefits to brain functions, such as memory and learning, as well as self-esteem
-Improvements in our body’s systems (increased health)
-The benefits of social exercise

The physiological effects of exercise include heart health, a stronger immune system, decreased risk of many diseases, and stable body structures – athletes have a reduced mortality risk compared to sedentary people. Next to the physical benefits of exercise, CrossFit makes you feel good for the following reasons...
