Meal plans serve as a "non thinking" way for clients to achieve fitness success. But do some of the drawbacks detract from the overall prospect of success?

In this episode, we explore the rigidness of a meal plan and what may serve as a better tool for clients to achieve fitness success.

Children going back to in person schooling, is becoming a reality for a lot of families across the United States. Setting the politics of "if they should, if they shouldn't" aside, what can families do to best insure their children have healthy immune systems? 

This topic I find highly valuable not only during the COVID era, but should extend to all times. The family units across the United States are largely lacking leadership when it comes to fitness. The parents do not value fitness, therefore most children do not learn to value fitness. With childhood obesity and Type II Diabetes on the rise, it is time to step up and change this cultural error.

A popular type of social media post I have seen is around deciding and selecting alcoholic beverages that keep in mind fitness or diets. While useful, I wanted to dig a little deeper than just an infographic. In this episode, we explore the impact of different alcohol options as well as strategies to minimize damage to your fitness goals. 

I also firmly believe telling clients or individuals to just "stop drinking alcohol" is a very poor and impractical bit of advice. It is much more productive to help people with their weekend habits than trying to convince them to stay at home and be anti-social.
