Greater health and fitness require a greater understanding.
Regular exercise is only one element of the optimal health puzzle. Think about how you’d feel if you worked out regularly but got inadequate or insufficient sleep? Better health, fitness, and longevity require a holistic, scientifically founded model, one that includes what we know about human physiology.
Our approach is comprehensive
We consider physical activity, eating, sleep, stress management, and self-care. Our objective is to help you build lifelong vitality.
In our baseline assessment, we’ll evaluate your habits in each of the five domains to determine where you need support. The goal is to find the keystone behaviors, which, when changed, positively affect all domains.
Then we’ll coach you through each step of your journey. Our team will be by your side to educate, guide, and hold you accountable to your goals. Your trainer will check in regularly to assess how you’re feeling in order to fine-tune each workout. At regular intervals, we’ll step back to assess your progress, then experiment with changes, analyze their impact, and adjust as necessary to maximize your results
