  • HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU EAT?

    I’m a “stick to the basics” kind of person when it comes to fitness and health. If you stick to the basics and do the work, you’ll end up in a ‘good place’ with your health and fitness. So when I get asked, “How often should I eat?” I start with the basics. 3 square meals per day Did you know? The origin of ‘square meals’ is thought to come from sailors who would eat meals on square pieces of wood (as plates). Eating a square meal meant that you ate an actual meal, not just a biscuit and water or tea. This carried on through time to the adage “3 square meals a day”, meaning to eat breakfast, lunch, and ....

  • TOOLS OF CHANGE #4 - INEFFICIENT EXERCISE

    Building a strong, resilient body that looks and feels great, requires better nutrition, strength training and the 4th tool of change - Inefficient Exercise and N.E.A.T.

Here is Tool #1 - Nutrition and Tool #2 - Strength Training again if you didn’t read them But, as we become more efficient, we get less and less fat-loss benefits - unless you exercise and train as much as a World Cup soccer player, then you get to eat pretty much anything you want.

  • TOOLS OF CHANGE

    As a coach and hope dealer for the last 13 years, I’ve learned a lot about what drives results. You don’t get results from fresh air and good intentions. You earn results by using the five tools of change, improving little by little until you are in a good place with all of them. You keep your results by building a solid foundation on top of the four pillars of fitness. The four pillars are: Support - A coach, a friend, a community of people who are in it together. Consistency- You have to show up and do what’s necessary even when you don’t want to. Effort - You showed up, so you might as well put forth your best effort. Enjoyment - ....

  • RELAX

    OMG it’s Friday, the first week of the new year is gone, I’ve been to the gym once and I haven’t lost 10lbs yet. Take a deep breath and RELAX. The first week of the new year can be chaotic. There is no need to panic and get overwhelmed about your fitness and health goals. Now, if you made very lofty resolutions, I’d recommend you look them over and make sure they are realistic. Next, I would review your definition of “fit” and make sure your goals are aligned with “why” you want to improve your health and fitness in the first place . If you have never taken the time to create a definition of fit, now is the perfect ....

Breakthrough is one-off the best gym and fitness programs I’ve ever participated in. The gym feels a lot more personal and you aren’t intimidated by other that are going. They’ve been responsible during Covid limiting the number of members at any give and taking cautions to thoroughly wipe down equipment in between uses. Lastly workouts are personalized to you ensuring you get a full body workout that adapts as your body does!
