Wellness requires fitness of mind and body

What is fitness?

Fitness means living up to your genetic potential. Fitness means being prepared for a successful life, in whatever environment you find yourself. Fitness is the essence of wellness and longevity.

We are athletes and team players by nature

Just as fish are designed to swim in schools, birds are designed to fly in flocks, and monkeys are designed to live together in trees, we humans are designed to lift, run, stretch, think, and collaborate in every environment on earth. We are like expensive race cars that must be taken out onto the racetrack regularly and operated according to our design specifications.

Fitness of mind and body are two sides of the same coin.

Mental fitness

You cannot be mentally fit and a physical wreck at the same time.

Physical fitness

You cannot be physically fit and a mental wreck at the same time.

Fitness is a life-long quest

Mental fitness begins with lean

Living in the moment...

That is the essence of mental fitness. 

There are many paths to mental fitness. 

Mine began with weekly CBT sessions.

I will help you find the path that 's right for you.

Physical fitness also begins with lean

Lean means clean, on the inside. 

I will help you to get lean and clean. 

After that, I can help you get stronger.

You cannot do both at the same time.

Let's discuss your fitness goals

Immediate goals; medium-range goals; and long-term goals.
