Fitness Tip

  • Creatine is an amino acid that is found naturally in our muscle tissue. But it’s also one of the most studied and effective supplements available. In short, creatine helps replenish ATP which acts as a quick energy source for activities that require quick bursts of energy, such as strength training and sprinting. What does this look like in a day to day workout of say, weight lifting? It will help you eek out a couple more reps and/or lift a slightly heavier weight. May not sound like much, but when you’re looking to get stronger, increasing your load is the name of the game. When you can do this consistently, your gains will be noticable.

    So if you’ve hit a plateau or just want to up your game, creatine is a proven and safe supplement that will help you with your goals!

Testimonials

  • After having my son, I tried for years to lose weight, but with little success. Jennie offered positive support and accountability. She has helped provide meal ideas and workout program schedules always with my goals for my nutrition in mind. She has been such an encourager and great support. Jennie was never pushy or shaming. I can always count on her to check in on me and to show grace when needed. I really appreciate all the help she has provided the last two years and look forward to her support and encouragement as I continue down a healthier path.
