You can move like Pat but you have to be consistent

Today we going to take a little bit of time to talk about Pat. He’s what you would classify as your ideal client.

Pat is a home town boy, born and raised in Stamford Ct. He’s been with us for over a year now and only getting better every day.

 

Pat’s an Ideally client for a few reasons.

  1. He’s nothing but welcoming to all clients.
  2. He’s always in a great mood.
  3. He puts all his own stuff away without us having to ask.
  4. He puts his full trust in the staff .
  5. He’s very consistent with his attendance and his effort .

These all help us create a great experience for the rest of the group and for the staff as well. Putting your stuff away after you finished using it, not one only helps the rest of the people using the gym it always helps the coaches. It’s not our job to clean up it’s our responsibility to give the best opportunity to challenge your selves in a safe fun environment.

 

Being consistent with showing up is a massive step in the right direction for anyone. It’s the make and breaks for point for most people. Pat not only shows up but also gives it his all when he comes ever time.

 

Finally, his trust means the world to us as a coach’s. We understand at 61 years young he’s got to be smart about his body. Every time we ask pat to try something new because we feel he’s cable he’s always open to it. That says I understand you think I can do this and  I won’t be in danger so I will give it a shot.

Thanks, Pat for coming in and working hard with a smile.

– Coach Dan

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.

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.

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!
