The Answer

In yesterday's post I ended with a question.  Here's the answer.

I am constantly searching for ways to improve our product.  My goal is to provide our team with the best information about health and performance that I can.  The message that I want our clients to realize is that training with us should compliment and improve the rest of your life.

We are different at Trinity Strength and Conditioning.  In order to maximize the results that you get from training here we teach the need to move away from the mindset that you need to do endless cardio and starve yourself to lose weight.  We teach that eating should be about fueling your body for long term health.

Weight loss may or may not be a part of that formula.  Fueling your body properly along with smart training will result in an increase in muscle.  If you are already lean, this may mean that the scale may not move.  This may also explain how someone can lose 10-15 pounds rather quickly, but then stall out.  To steal a line from Robb Wolf, it is important to focus on how you look, feel and perform.


At the end of this week our current fitness challenge is over.  What will you do on Sunday?

Hopefully, next week you will be able to take something you learned from this fitness challenge and keep it a part of your life.  Some of you have probably realized that you don't need pizza and jelly rolls.  Some of you have probably noticed you are much more productive during the day when you get adequate amounts of sleep.  As this contest comes to a close, ask yourself "What have I learned from this contest that I could continue to do to achieve my goals?"
