NOVA NIGHTHAWKS WOMEN’S RUGBY 🏉 just wrapped up their 3rd week of workouts with us. this is optional for them- but it’s really awesome to see college students- showing up for a 730am optional workout- and continuing to come back week after week up. It says a lot about them as players but also as people.
.
.
.
every week the workouts get more advanced and more demanding but these girls show up ready to tackle it head on and truly seem grateful for the opportunity to train with us 👊🏼 🙏🏼@nvcc_nighthawks_rugby @nvccesports @novacommunitycollege @lostudentlife

not to toot our own horn or anything 🎺 but we are pretty amazing at what we do. it takes some special people to blend together a mix of ingredients needed to produce health & fitness results..
🔹
▪️
🔹
CREATIVITY + PASSION + EDUCATION + EXPERIENCE = ELITE WELLNESS..
🔹
▪️
🔹
we tackle each day knowing we have trainers whose qualifications are way above and beyond the standards of “fitness” in America. we have trainers who not only have degrees in Kinesiology but also have their CPT’s, CSCS or USAW. we have trainers who played collegiate sports. we have trainers who know how to train a 12 year old one session and then a 75 year old the very next session..
🔹
▪️
🔹
the fitness industry is disgustingly saturated with “trainers”. we don’t want the clients who are just looking for a trainer. we want the clients who are looking for the best trainers.

[02/11/20]   this was probably 20% of their entire workout but it was awesome. hand reaction drills x 💯

this was their first attempt at doing the slide board WITH a hand + eye coordination drill simultaneously and they destroyed it 🔥

happiness is...

watching you play soccer alongside Brandi Chastain, Mia Hamm, Julie Foudy... watching you set the stage for USA Women’s Soccer and help pave the way for Hope Solo, Alyssa Naeher, Ashlyn Harris...watching you turn from an icon into a friend has been simply amazing. Now you’re our iconic friend and we wouldn’t change that for anything.

gotta give @jada.aksu some serious credit.
.
.
she works her 🍑 off. she is doing something exercise related (volleyball lessons, practice, games, training) 6 days a week and somehow still manages to get all her homework done.. not sure how she does it 🤷🏼‍♀️
.
.
.
and shout out to @hulyaaksu2020 for knowing how important it is for jada to do proper recovery - it’s the things like doing strength & conditioning outside your designated sport and active recovery that take a player from good to GREAT.

Happy National Girl and Women in Sports Day ‼️
.
.
.
this business was built by female athletes and we sure as heck make sure we support our fellow female athletes #girlpower 👊🏼
.
.
.
we train a lot of boys too but there is just something so awesome about inspiring a young girl to be the best she can be on and off the court (or field), teaching them that STRONG IS SEXY, and accepting them for who they are and who they want to be.

favorite parts about today’s conditioning session: celebrating audrey’s bday, listening to them all sing “Call Me Maybe” and watching some of them try to do the bosu side to side exercise (you know who you are 🤫) see you all next week. same time ⏰ same place 💪🏼

we don’t view it as working FOR US. we view it as working WITH US. We are BEYOND blessed that these beautiful souls in this picture actually WANT to work with us. we have never had to put up a job posting or ask people to work for us and that’s pretty awesome.
.
.
we want to thank our staff for growing the business with us. you come to work with an open mind, ready to learn anything and everything we might have to throw at you. sometimes it’s completely overwhelming but your willingness to learn is one of the reasons you are on our staff and not someone’s else’s. your willingness to not be afraid to ask a question because you want to know the answer instead of pretending like you know everything is why you are on our staff. your willingness to learn things not only about business and the application of your kinesiology degrees, but also about life skills, is why you are on our staff.
.

thank you to those who have ever worked with us and thank you to those who continue to work with us 🙏🏼

It would mean the world to us if you could write a review on Google, Yelp or Facebook. It's one of the best ways we have of getting new customers and since we only do organic marketing, every single review matters. We take the time to read each and every review so we would greatly appreciate any and all reviews. Thank you so much!

a successful day 1 of @nvcc_nighthawks_rugby strength & conditioning program with us! .

they will be training every week throughout their season and we expect to see huge improvements along the way both on and off the field. .

This is a WOMEN’S RUGBY team 🏉 these players attend @novacommunitycollege but unfortunately do not have the same access to athletic funding as some of the other sports. In an effort to help give them a level playing field against their competitors, we have opened our doors to allow them to train at our facility.
.
if you know us, you know we believe very strongly in helping the community. As former female athletes ourselves, we know how much of a positive impact this can have on their lives and we are more than happy to help out our fellow female athletes.

[01/24/20]   these girls practice over an hour away but still make time to do strength training with us. .
.
if your club doesn’t offer strength training (and we mean legitimate strength training with a qualified professional)- then give us a call ASAP because you need to be working on your sport specific movements as well as your speed, vertical, agility, reaction time, strength, explosive power. - otherwise, you need to choose a new sport.
.
if you want to play with the best, you need to train like the best #metrovbc 🏋🏼‍♀️ + 🏐

Elite Wellness - Sport Specific Training (Volleyball)

these girls come 2x a week at 7am before school... talk about dedication. talk about consistency. talk about progress.

WHAT IS ELECTRO FITNESS (EMS) ⁉️⁉️⁉️

hi. I’m josi. you may recognize me because people often confuse me with Gal Gadot or an extra from Avatar. maybe it’s my height or my beautiful complexion. you may also know me because I’m the one that doesn’t talk nearly as much as mckenna and I’m the one who is forced to dress up in costumes. a few other things you should know about me are: I like to be mysterious. English is my second language. I never wear my hair down (except this photo where I was pretending to be a fitness model). I love my dogs more than anything. I use the electro fitness device as my only source of exercise. I eat cans of beans and egg plant when i forget to meal prep. I work really, really hard - all the time. if I could eat one thing every day it would be chocolate. I hope to see you soon, very soon, if I haven’t gotten a chance to meet you in person yet. tchau amor ✌🏼

volleyball mom takes on ELECTRO FITNESS!!!!! 😳

this was by far one of the most impressive electro fitness sessions we have done. .
.
we ramped up the intensity. we did more complex movements. of course it’s easy when you have a client like @zpa17 who wants to take herself to the next level. this video doesn’t do it justice. the movements by themselves are hard enough for most people but when you have an electrical muscle stimulation suit on you that’s contracting every single muscle— just imagine how hard this workout was 💭 ⚡️
.
.
no doubt if she competes in NPC this year she will absolutely kill it 🔥

#supportlocalbusiness for this week: introducing @missinglinkpt .. for months we have been trying to meet up with Dr. Andre from @missinglinkpt 🔗. He finally was able to stop by our location after months of IG messaging 🤣
.
.
so glad to connect with him. he has a magnetic personality 🧲 and we’re sure that’s what helps draw patients to his PT practice. .
.
can’t wait to make it over to his office for an assessment and to do some collaboration with him and his team.

Missing Link Physical Therapy

talk about working out until failure - in only 20 minutes, we saw this guy sweating and working just as hard as if he had done 90 minutes with weights and cardio mixed together.
⚡️
⚡️
Electro Fitness is as hard as you make it. if you stand there hoping for a miracle that the machine will give you a 6 pack when you’re done and shock your fat away- then it’s probably not the service for you.
⚡️
⚡️
BUT if you want to show up, are open to something new, and are willing to truly contract your muscles in conjunction to the machine contracting your muscles for you- then this is for you.

if you have followed us on this business journey, then you probably know where we started from. If you have followed us on our life journey, then you REALLY know where we started from.

we really want to post a video about our experience 1) as business owners 2) as women business owners 3) as women business owners in a predominantly male-dominated field

josi comes from a town in Brasil where most people don’t even make $300 US dollars a month. She sends money home every month to pay for her grandma’s rent. Mckenna comes from a family of 6 children where hand-me-downs were a necessity and she paid all her own expenses since she was 16. .
.
two different paths were taken yet some of the same life principles and work ethics were instilled in us. .
.
work hard. be a good person. don’t ask for favors. don’t give up. pay your debts. always offer help. expect nothing in return. be thankful for what you have

adorable reminder to book your infrared sauna session so we can get it ready for ya 🔥
