Continuously write the address. Cheat Engine has an interval setting thats default at 250ms I believe.

Either use a thread/timer to constantly write to the address as SwallowIt mentioned or create a code cave to alter the code to not need a timer writing to it but does the "freezing" effect internally.

I find it easy to make a special thread class that is specifically designed to freeze a specific value at a given interval, and create a new thread for each new frozen value.

If the timer didn't work, you're writing your value wrong.

You can also use CE to find out what instructions the game uses to update that memory address and overwrite them with NOPs (0x90).

For example, if you game writes the new value of your health via a mov [eax], ecx instruction at 0x0051BF32 you could simply make a two byte buffer containing {0x90, 0x90} and write it at that address. This is exactly how "replace this with code that does nothing" works. Of course if it's a different instruction then the length might be different - for example 'mov dword ptr ds:[0027155c], ebx' is 6 bytes long.
