Across AthleticsOwner
Sep. 2016Chantilly, VirginiaHow do I put together a workout? Should I be eating more carbs? How do I get my abs flatter? These questions are important, and even though it’s what Men’s/Women’s Health markets to you, they’re not quite the *right questions. Don’t get me wrong, I answer these questions, but the questions that are more important to me are “where have you experienced the most aches and pains?” “which plane of motion are you weakest in?” “How many calories do you burn vs consume per day?” These answer the questions above and so much more. This is why I started my own business, because I’ve seen that many trainers aren’t asking these most important questions. It would be my honor to help you have a better understanding of your body, what’s needed for you to grow, and what types experiences you’d like to be having.
