    How to Measure Success: The Bioelectric Scale

    How to Measure Success: The Bioelectric Scale Your health and fitness journey is unique to you. Whether you are just getting started and your goal is to simply move your body or if you have specific targets in mind regarding how your body looks, we all have different milestones we want to reach. And because not everyone has the same goals, fitness history, and starting point, that means we also have to measure success dynamically as well. For many people, the goal of losing weight is often their initial motivation to start getting more active. And while weight can be partially indicative of health, it doesn’t tell the whole story. Regardless of what the beauty industry ....

  • Later is a lie!

    Later is a lie!

    “Later” is a lie we tell ourselves to feel better. “Later” is stated out of fear, never necessity. “Later” actually means “never” in regard to reaching fitness goals. It temporarily lets us off the hook without admitting we’re giving up our dreams. We can EASILY convince ourselves that timing, circumstances, and the demands of daily life are legitimate excuses. But they aren’t. Ever. Life is chaotic and busy. It seems like too much too often — like you just can’t start or focus or grow in the right direction. Fear, uncertainty, and self-doubt weigh us down, so we turn – again and again – to ....

    Coconut aminos is the new trending alternative to soy sauce. And unless you spend your hours scrolling through health influencers pages, you’re probably wondering what coconut aminos are. “Coconut aminos are the fermented byproduct of coconut nectar, harvested from a coconut tree, combined with sea salt,” explains Kimberly Snyder, CN, New York Times bestselling author and founder of Solluna. This product is a great and healthy alternative to soy sauce or tamari that’s slightly thinner and sweeter with an array of health benefits. Unlike soy sauce that is full of sodium, coconut aminos contain a significant source of nutrients (hence its name). Not ....

Jen

My progress since I joined Recoup Personal Training… Down 29 pounds, lost 13.5% body fat and over 21 inches total!

What a difference proper nutrition and exercise will have on the body.

Never did I think I’d change the way I eat or exercise on a daily basis. I still eat the foods I love, just in a modified version.

My workouts are challenging but the payoff is how much I thrive from them, how good I feel, how strong I am getting and how much energy I have for the rest of the day.

I have learned a lot with the right training and guidance, and I could not have done this without the support of the Recoup family.

I see these results not only on myself but with others who have joined the program. Matt, Stevie and Bo make showing up to the gym easy and comfortable and give me the encouragement and accountability I need to keep me going.

They have been a huge contribution to my success and definitely deserve some recognition! Thank you" - Jen

Bridget

“Reaching my goal would mean that I will not be put into the box of old people.”⠀

A big shout out to Bridget who shows that making changes to your body and your health is absolutely possible at any stage of life.⠀

In 10 weeks she:⠀

  • lost 20lbs, 12% bodyfat and a total of 17 inches⠀
  • is running 5K under 24 minutes again⠀
  • AND is feeling more energized than ever!⠀

We are super proud of Bridget for her commitment to living her best life at 60 years. She is an amazing example of the power of nutrition combined with fitness and the right mindset. ⠀

Keep scrolling if you want to read more about what Bridget has to say about her transformation journey:⠀

“Just before Halloween I reached out to Bo for help with my nutrition. In addition to setting a goal weight by the end of 2020 I set myself a 5k time goal by end of March 2021. Even though the time is about 2 minutes slower than the best time I raced in my 40’s many of my running friends tell me it’s not going to happen.⠀⠀

In addition to creating a nutrition plan Bo reminded me of the importance of getting enough sleep and giving my body time to recover. With Bo’s coaching, I switched my priorities from cardio, strength training and nutrition to nutrition, strength training and cardio.Just by switching that mindset has generated amazing results.⠀

Since starting the Balanced Habits LIFE program my energy level has increased, my running pace has increased, and I reached my goal weight.⠀

Training with Matt, Bo and Stevie have made me stronger than I was 20 years ago.⠀

I’m so grateful for the coaching, expertise, professionalism from RECOUP team!” - Bridget

Angie

This woman is incredible!

Angie lost 15 lbs of body fat, 13.5 inches and down a total of 8.2% body fat! What an amazing transformation for her 60th birthday!

Here is what Angie had to say about her experience :

“2020 what year! The year of life changing events we had so little control over thanks to COVID 19.

We do, however, to a certain extent have control over our health and well-being, so I seized the opportunity to do exactly just that. I took control of my health and well-being.

Reaching a milestone birthday made me want to start a new decade as a better version of myself. I didn’t know what to do and I knew that I couldn’t do it alone. Tried and failed many times before.I decided to join the Balanced Habits Life Program with the knowledge and support of Bo and Matt.

Bo, my nutrition coach, guided me through my nutrition changes, and also included tips on how to manage through social events and a home environment that is not conducive to my goals. And Matt, my training coach, with his creative and challenging workouts helped me build strength, stamina, and endurance.

I learned how important the mind body connection is. It’s not just about the body, the mind needs to be engaged as well. Balanced Habits provides tools to work through the mental aspect of the transformation journey.

My biggest take-aways were: be patient with myself, be disciplined about nutrition and be consistent-consistency over time is where the results are. And to forgive myself when slipping up. A slip up doesn’t mean give up!

I’m so happy I made the decision to do the Program and highly recommend it. I’m so grateful to Bo and Matt for their guidance and support.

I feel so accomplished, so happy, I feel like I’m thirty again!” - Angie
