Congratulations to client and good friend for successfully loosing 30lbs! 🎉

Kat has been my client since October and has consistently showed up and killed her in person sessions. Kat’s strength, endurance, and balance have all improved with me.

At home, Kat has made lifestyle changes to her nutrition that have clearly paid off.

I’m grateful to know you and be able to join you on this journey of self betterment Kat, thank you for allowing me to help you in the gym and with your training.

Client spotlight:
Shoutout goes to my client Natalie.
These two photos are about 6 weeks apart. April 13th (left) May 25th (right)
Natalie has been training with me 4x/week for about 4 months now. We’ve seen a huge shift in her physique in the last 6-8 weeks. When Natalie came to me she wasn’t brand new to the gym but hadn’t been consistent with her training in quite some time. The first two months the progress didn’t come to her as fast as she would of liked. I would constantly reassure her that’s she’s doing all the right things and real results take time. I would sound like a broken record. I told her to trust the process. Fast forward she now gets it. It’s so important we focus on what we can control and we need to not focus so much on the external. Better attitude, better mindset, nutrient timing and progressive overload and the rest will take care of itself. If you have the right team around you there’s no doubt you will succeed. It’s okay to get frustrated when we don’t see the results right away but this doesn’t happen over night. I promise you if you live with the mindset “win the day”🥇 it’s incredible what we can accomplish in 6 months. The work is never done. Never forget a strong mind equals a strong body.

New heavyweight pump covers in stock!!

Wishing two of our trainers, .fit & the best of luck this weekend as they head to Fort Lauderdale to compete in the Stronglifting Competition!! 💪🏻

Stronglifting is similar to powerlifting, but with a few more lifts.

Not only will the girls test their max weights in:
- Squat
- Deadlift
- Bench Press

But also:
- Hip Thrust
- Barbell Overhead Press
- Chin-Up

Good luck, Jaime & Tiffany!! We know you’ve been training hard the last couple months, and we can’t wait to see that work pay off & watch you both crush it!! 👊🏻

And just like that another year has gone by with another successful toy drive! 🎁🎄

Welcome to the family bud! It’s been a pleasure having you around so far!

Couldn’t have found a better place to start in person training again.

One of the biggest things I was looking for was the atmosphere because atmosphere can make or break the gym experience.

has the atmosphere I was looking for, motivating and homie, meaning there are a lot of serious lifters here but they aren’t a**holes. Everyone I’ve met here is super nice and very welcoming.

As a celebration I’m offering free consultations to everyone that is interested in personal training both IN PERSON and Online.

DM if you’re interested!

Great work, both of you! 🙌🏼 .fit

✨CLIENT SPOTLIGHT✨
⠀
Giving a quick Saturday shoutout to my awesome client
⠀
While these progress pics speak for themselves (😍🥵)… There are so many other great things I can say about CC.
⠀
We started together in November of last year. Her goals were to lean out (specifically her core & legs), keep/build the b***y, & get stronger.
⠀
Today, we’re down 15lb AND 2% body fat. Not to mention… Her strength has gone up in all lifts. And even more importantly: The QUALITY of movement has improved — especially in squats, which was the toughest exercise (as far as strength & range of motion) when we started together. 🙌🏻
⠀
I can’t say enough positive things about CC.. She is always smiling, always gives 110% (even in early mornings hehe), encourages others in her group.. is never afraid to try something new or push heavier weights.. and always open to feedback & adjustments to make herself even 1% better.
⠀
And while our training has been the foundation of building her physique, I can’t post this without mentioning the KEY ROLE that NUTRITION has played in her progress! 🔑
⠀
Resistance training builds, but taking the time to learn about proper nutrition, PLUS having the discipline to implement what you’ve learned.. and the PATIENCE to stick with it & figure out what works for your goals, lifestyle, & body… That’s where the magic happens, people!
⠀
SO proud of you, CC!! Thanks for trusting me w/ your health & fitness journey 🤍
