Hello! My name is Edward Hardee and I am the successful owner of CrossFit 92. CrossFit 92 is a fitness gym located in between Auburndale and Winter Haven, Fl on Highway 92. Our goal is to teach and educate the utmost level of fitness in a group setting. We do not teach diets nor fads but educate on eating for life and our training is scalable for all ages and levels of fitness. Outside of teaching Crossfit I do In-Home Personal Training because I found this to be the easiest way for clients to succeed with a very busy life (Kids, work, comfort) I simply knock down all the walls that would hold them back from going to the gym by coming to them. God has blessed me with an amazing ability to help change the lives of others through fitness. I created this blog so I could reach out further than my small demographics in the world and improve lives using the same successful methods that I've helped hundreds of others with. Contact me with ANY questions to get you on the right track! 863-661-3428 or Edward@Crossfit92.com

"As a Man Speaketh, so is He"

     Most people who talk about the subject of fitness and health talk about "getting in shape" What they do not realize is that many times, these words are counterproductive to the goal of actually getting in shape. It is common to hear people complain about being out of shape and saying "I need to get in shape and burn fat", and "I want to burn fat and get in shape". But what is not often heard along with those saying is the addition of "and stay that way".
     While staying in shape may be on their mind, their mindset is actually only focused on the short term goal of getting in shape. This thought process tends to make so many of us more susceptible to the latest fad diets and exercise gimmicks on the market. We are so focused on getting into shape, in the shortest amount of time possible, we will try almost anything regardless of how silly or difficult it might be to use... maybe even dangerous or unhealthy!
     Changing our "quick fix" mindset to one of long term success and lifestyle change will help lead us down the correct, and lasting path. You will be less attracted to the late night TV pitches and more focused on doing the right things at the right times. Isn't a long, healthy, fit life what we really want?
     Creating the proper environment to allow your body to burn fat fast is essential to this goal and takes a lot of work. It is much easier to be in shape in your 20's and 30's than it is in your 50's and 60's... if you can age, and be in shape, now that is impressive! It is truly rare to find people who have kept the mindset and followed a plan of exercise and nutrition that has kept them healthy.
      If you really wish to transform your body and health forever, you must make it a habit. It must be ingrained in the things you do and the way you think. You shouldn't have to think about ordering healthy food, it should become something you just do, because you enjoy it! Research has shown that these habits can be developed in under a month, sometimes even quicker. You don't need to give up your life's dreams and you don't need to follow the latest diet fad.
     After a few months you will start to find that your body will start telling you that it wants to keep eating right and exercising. A fast food meal will make you feel absolutely terrible and missing a workout will leave you feeling edgy and just not quite right.
