Happy Week Y’all.

Winter is back, its cold again.

You, however, have been cranking up the heat.

It is pretty impressive.

Don’t take my word, have a look.

One error and omission to start us off.

Charlie is a winner in his age bracket for the Assault Bike Challenge. We had his age listed 10 years younger than he actually is, most people would love that mistake. Charlie’s time of 3:47 is bad ass at any age, but at 64 it is simply amazing. His commitment to his own health and fitness it what allows amazing things like this.

These powerful ladies, Za, Jennifer and Kristen have been nailing our Saturday a.m. group class. If you want to see how these strong women crush a workout, join them on Saturday a.m.. Za and Kristen are new to the crew, be sure to say hi when you see them.

Another friendly face you must meet is Mr. Jim. Last week was his first week and we are super excited to have him here. Welcome, Jim.

Ron has been here a couple weeks, but he is elusive and nimble like a cat so we had a hard time getting a picture, but we finally did. He has made a ton of progress in a few short week. Way to go sir.

We often talk about setting people up for success. Nikhil has been quietly nailing his workouts and getting himself ready for the upcoming cricket season. An MVP season is in his future. Smart work towards a pull up will make those shoulders bulletproof.

Siobhan decided to take the chance to wave Hi to everyone during her skater jumps. Heyyyyyyyy.

I was at a conference in the city this weekend at Mark Fisher Fitness. They had this important message on the wall that I thought you all should see. Some important truths about creating your best self.

Finally, Hudson has been working on his dead bugs and push ups while also starting to crush some oatmeal, squash and carrots. The work has paid off. He can sit up now. Go Huddy!!!!

Several weeks ago I asked you to send questions you have about nutrition, eating skills or body image and I got a bunch of great questions! Thank you!!! In this week’s video, we are covering a question that comes up a lot: What can I eat for lunch that:requires little to no prep, will keep me satisfied, and is not highly processed? Do you struggle with that midday break to eat lunch like me?? Many of my clients have come to me really at a loss for lunch specifically, because they haven’t made a plan, and they either grab handfuls of random things together, go through a drive thru, or skip it all together! Does that sound like you? Well, check out this week’s video to see my recommendations for how to make sure those lunches don’t thwart your progress to reaching your health goals. As always, we will start where you are!

Eating at home more than going out to eat is one way to make progress on your health and nutrition because it puts you in full control. The trade off… eating at home requires having food on hand to prepare those meals, which requires time each week for planning and the time it takes to go to the grocery store. It’s work. Well, your resident nutrition coach (ME!), is here to teach you one simple thing you can start doing THIS WEEK to simplify your meal planning, save time, and save money. Watch this week’s video for a step-by-step on how to set up an Instacart account and grocery lists, plan your meals in advance, and order groceries from the comfort of your own home. With the convenience of online shopping, you can browse through a variety of healthy options and have them delivered straight to your doorstep in no time. Check out the video below to see just HOW easy it is to order your groceries online !

Are you a “perfectionist"? When you strive for perfection, you have good intentions. You want to take care of your health, feel your best, and live a long and happy life with loved ones. One way that perfectionism can show up in our health is through a fancy term known as cognitive distortion also known as all-or-nothing thinking. Striving for excellence can be a really wonderful thing! It means it is important to you to look after yourself! However, all or nothing thinking can also lead to disappointment, burnout, and self-criticism when we inevitably miss a day, or go “off plan”. When our focus is on getting a “perfect” outcome, we lose satisfaction and enjoyment along the way and lose sight of other measures of progress. Want to know one of the greatest predictors of long term success with any behavior change? FLEXIBILITY. Flexibility allows you to come as you are on your best day AND on your worst day. It fosters self-compassion, and helps you to keep moving forward. Check out this video below to find out more!
