Fitness Tip

  • If your goal is to get skinny, I’d encourage you to rethink it. There are plenty of skinny people that are far from healthy. Furthermore, skinny usually precludes having much muscle, and muscle is important on a number of levels (increased bone density, decreased injuries, increased physical performance, and so on).

    Nothing wrong with wanting to improve appearance, decrease body fat, have more confidence, etc. But all these things can still happen when change our goal from getting skinny to getting healthy.

Testimonials

  • I recently took part in a 90 day Challenge Group through Facebook hosted and lead by Matthew Pryor. With daily ‘check-ins’ and inspirational writing by Matthew, the experience was exactly what I needed. I needed accountability and motivation and that’s what Matthew facilitated for us. My exercise and diet habits have changed for the better and I’m thankful to Matthew for helping me accomplish that.

    Vitamix. Is it everything they say it is? I'm here to tell you, it's more. This multi-purpose, powerhouse of a machine will not only help get you healthier, you'll be looking for excuses to use it. It's without its flaws, but we wouldn't trade it for 100 pounds of organic kale.
