I wanted to create a way to make a whole-body approach to help clients be successful inside and outside the gym. I started implementing nutritional cooking into my programs and saw that teaching clients not only what to eat, but how to combine foods so they taste great and have the most benefits, dramatically changed their cravings and results. I took clients to the supermarket to help them see what nutrition facts and ingredients they needed to be aware of. This industry is very manipulative. Fat-free. Sugar-free. Both labels that really mean %u201cdon%u2019t worry, we added a bunch of other junk instead.%u201d There is always room to expand your knowledge when it comes to nutrition.

I consistently work with clients to help them personalize their program to fit their needs.In 2010 I got in an almost fatal car accident that left me with two bulged discs and severe whiplash. I was determined to make a full recovery. I watched my body respond to corrective exercises and I knew there was still potential to speed up the healing with nutrition.
