While CrossFit may seem like Magic, it's actually a scientific, constantly evolving, data driven pursuit
I will be at the CrossFit for Health Summit in Austin, TX this Saturday and I can't wait to share with you all what I've learned when I get back! The CrossFit methodology is currently one of the few bright spots of hope in fighting the epidemic of chronic disease. The big 4 chronic diseases, responsible for 70% of deaths in Canada, are diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer's, and cancer. The bucket of chronic disease also includes other common conditions such as depression, anxiety, PCOS, arthritis, osteoporosis, stroke, chronic kidney disease, and fatty liver. 3 out of 5 Canadians over the age of 20 have at least one chronic disease and managing these conditions costs our economy $190 billion/year!
I would strongly encourage any of you that work in healthcare or are generally interested in protecting your health to register to take part in this summit via the virtual feed. If you need continuing education credits for your profession, this is worth 6 CMEs. Check out this great line up of doctors and researchers in the field of metabolic health:

If you like what we do here at BRIO, we would really appreciate it if you'd help us defeat the Google overlords and leave us a 5-star review on google! Little actions like this help other people find us and know that they are in good hands when they're looking to improve their lives and get fitter. And if you think there are things we could be doing better, please let us know since we're always looking for ways to improve!
As a thank you, you can take a dip into the BRIO Treasure Chest (remember Red Lobster as a kid??)
