Many people start off the new year with a resolution to lose weight and lead a healthier lifestyle. In order to help our members stay on track with their resolution, Phifer Wellness Center held a biggest loser competition. Phifer's Biggest Loser: Resolution Season Edition had 5 participants, all with the goal of making a healthy lifestyle change and losing weight. Each participant received 8 30-minute personal training sessions with our exercise physiologists, 3 wellness coaching sessions, and a CardioCoach resting metabolic rate test. In addition to these things, participants were encouraged to attend a weekly challenge designed by the exercise physiologists to provide a different type of workout, while encouraging friendly competition amongst the participants. Each of our participants lost weight and inches over the course of the 8-week competition, but it was Sharon Winfield that won the competition in the end. She lost a total of 15.4 pounds! Her before and after pictures are posted below. Congratulations, Sharon!
