As an online coach, my goal is to provide an experience that is even better than working with a trainer in-person. I prefer online coaching, because it gives my clients the flexibility to complete their workouts at the best time for them (vs the time I am available). It also allows me to work with athletes around the world! With online coaching, the tools I use to work with my clients are even more important. When I selected a platform to work with my personal training clients, I wanted a solution that made it simple to follow the workout & easy to track weights for each exercise. I found Trainerize after researching the features and user reviews. I’ve been using this online coaching platform (affiliate) to for coaching my VIP clients since 2014 and added my group coaching ...

Do Essential Oils Really Work?
As you might expect from any fitness & nutrition coach, I'm pretty passionate about my health! When I started focusing on my overall health a few years ago, I realized how anything I put in my body or on my skin could either help or hurt me. The more I learned, the more I realized how many chemicals & toxins I was exposed to every day! So I decided to make a change and start using more natural options. For me, I actually started with my makeup choices - I put that on my face every day, so I figured that would have a pretty big impact. From there, I slowly looked at other areas of my life: my skin care, bath products, & supplements. I didn't change everything at once - and I still have things that could be improved. I make small changes, because I know that's what ... View Post
Metabolic Efficiency: Burn More Fat in Endurance Training
Endurance athletes have been taught for years that a high carb diet is the way to fuel your training. As a runner or triathlete, you are likely using high carb (and high sugar) sports nutrition products during your training and racing to keep your body topped up ready to perform your best. And while your performance is improving, you often deal with GI issues, bonking at the end of races, deal with frequent cravings, and may struggle with your body weight or body comp. This is the challenge that prompted Bob Seebohar, registered dietitian and exercise physiologist, to create the concept of Metabolic Efficiency™. Metabolic Efficiency is a nutrition and training strategy that teaches your body to be more efficient at higher intensities. By adjusting your daily nutrition plan & ... View Post
Critical Velocity: Best Interval Running Workout
As a running and triathlon coach, one of the ways I help my athletes reach their goals is to learn new training approaches. Last year, I attended the Running Summit last year to learn from internationally renowned endurance experts, including Jack Daniels and Joe Vigil. My surprise takeaway from the weekend, however, was the session on Critical Velocity by Tom “Tinman” Schwartz. Although he created this training approach over two decades ago, it never hit mainstream running popularity. As a triathlon coach, I see this as the runner's version of "Sweet Spot" training in cycling. Like that key workout, critical velocity is hard enough to product a substantial physiological benefit, but not so hard that it is unsustainable and require significant recovery. Before we get to the workout, ... View Post
Supplement Guide for Optimal Health
Choosing nutritional supplements can be complicated! There’s a ton of information available and when you research your options, you find that the information is often confusing and even studies can be biased. A few years ago, I started sharing my daily nutrition supplement routine and it continues to be a question that I hear frequently. This year, my updated guide focuses on the six staple supplements that will benefit you. How do you choose which supplements include in your routine? I started with a combination of research and personal experience to determine the best approach. During my certification to become a nutrition coach, supplementation was one area that I focused on to help separate the hype from reality. Staple Supplements for Health Although no supplements are ... View Post
