Philosophy
It is my philosophy that fitness be a lifestyle, not just an activity. To get fit and stay healthy requires a personal effort, a personal program, proper eating habits and a positive mind. What you believe about yourself is a vital part in achieving your fitness goals! I want to consider all the obstacles that may keep you from healthy living, including your state of mind. Sometimes the hardest weight to lose is the emotional and mental kind.
Mission Statement
My mission statement is simple: If nothing else, Move Daily.
