  • Strong at 30, Stronger at 50, Strongest at 70+

    Recently, I was reminded about a quote by Dick Van Dyke: “At 30, I exercised to look good. In my 50s, to stay fit. In my 70s, to stay ambulatory. In my 80s, to avoid assisted living. Now in my 90s, I’m just doing it out of pure defiance.” We are lucky enough to train members of all ages here in the gym. From their early 20’s all the way up to 80’s! We have seen this exact perspective firsthand: the “why” behind strength training evolves as we move through different decades of life. If you’re in the 30s, 40s, 50s or beyond, lifting and exercise isn’t really just all about aesthetics anymore. It’s about keeping your ....

  • A Little About NEAT (non exercise activity thermogenesis)

    Have you every hear of Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis or NEAT? It's a major player that often gets overlooked. It's a pretty easy concept and it’s actually just a fancy way of referring to all the calories, or energy, you use from everyday movement outside of your workouts. Think walking the dog, cleaning the house, standing while working, or taking the stairs. It adds up and it matters more than most people realize. Think about your day. If you're lucky enough to get a good workout in, that just 1 hour of your whole day... so how much are you moving your body for the rest of the day? 🔥 5 Fun Facts About NEAT: Increasing NEAT by about 280–350 kcal/day ....

  • A Little About GLP-1 Drugs

    GLP-1 Drugs and Weight Loss: What You Need to Know You’ve probably heard of medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, or Mounjaro—maybe from your doctor, a friend, or even social media. These are GLP-1 drugs, and they’re gaining popularity for their role in weight loss. But what are they, and how do they really work? Here’s what you need to know as someone working on your health and fitness journey. What Are GLP-1 Drugs? GLP-1 stands for “glucagon-like peptide-1.” It’s a hormone your body naturally produces to help regulate blood sugar levels.

  • A Little About Sleep

    How did you sleep last night? That’s not a rhetorical question — I want you to really think about it... How fast did you fall asleep? Did you wake up at all throughout the night? How did you feel when you woke up? How many hours did you actually get? The answers to those questions can reveal a lot more than you might think. Sleep — or the lack of it — doesn’t just affect how tired you feel. It can change how you learn, how you move, your mood, and even your overall quality of life. Think about it this way: sleep is your body and brain’s nightly reset — not just for energy, but for recovery, mental clarity, and long-term health. 🧠 5 ....

  • A Little About Creatine

    Whether you're brand new to supplements or have been training for years, you've probably heard someone mention creatine—but what exactly is it, and is it worth considering? I’m sharing a recent article from The Wall Street Journal that takes a closer look at creatine, one of the most well-researched and widely used supplements in the fitness world. It breaks down the science, clears up common misconceptions, and explains why creatine might be beneficial not just for athletes, but for everyday health and performance. Even if you've never thought about using it, this is a great read to stay informed. Check out the article below! ....

  • A Little About Protein

    Let's talk a little about your body's favorite building block! How much do you know about protein? Did you know that it is one of the most powerful tools you can give to your body? Did you know that it helps build muscle, recover faster, stay energized, and feel stronger? Did you know that a high protein diet can aid in fat loss AND build muscle??
