Summer Youth Training Options

With summer coming it is time to establish your child's training schedule for this year!  It is not to late to get registered or get your team set up for training.

Option A: 

Organize a small or large group with your sport team!  This concept is intended to keep the team together working toward some common and individual goals.  Programming can be designed for safety, injury prevention and performance enhancement.   Contact Coach Brian Waldo at 612-251-5142 for details, fees and schedule availability.

Option B: 

If your child is not in a sport or does not have a group of kids to attend with we will be offering a great alternative summer "Kid Fit" program that is perfect for all levels.  The last two years the program has ran at 10 am, but may be adjusted depending on interest level and availability.

Let's work together to help your child or athlete be the best they can be!

Train like a champion!  Go to www.ohponline.net​ and contact us now.

Please stop fooling yourself

You want to be fit and lean, right?

So why do you fool yourself into thinking that you are eating healthy…when your diet is filled with so many processed foods?

Don’t fall for it: so-called healthy packaged foods are NOT guilt-free. And they are hurting your fat loss results.

I can’t tell you how many folks I’ve seen chow down on organic, all-natural, gluten-free, vegan or high-fiber packaged foods…only to see their weight increase.

What did you expect?

Packaged snacks and desserts are going to stop fitness results and encourage fat storage. Every. Single. Time.

Even if it says healthy, or all-natural, or high-fiber, or organic, or gluten-free, or vegan.

If it’s processed and packaged, then it’s getting in the way of your results.

If you are serious about shaping up your body then throw out the packaged foods and opt for wholesome, real foods instead.

Start with these:

  • lean protein
  • fruits
  • vegetables
  • nuts
  • seeds
  • avocados

When it comes to fat loss, eating clean is half of the battle. The other half is all about effective, challenging and consistent exercise.

Begin right now by calling or emailing me to get started on an exercise program that will turn you into a fat burning machine!
