Feel Better Training

First, we celebrate all Kate’s wins!

-Built strength in all 6 foundational movement patterns while losing body fat. This is a huge gift to her future self and she’s just getting started folks!

-Prioritizing protein, fiber, and increasing water intake. Eating to support her health goals over choosing foods only for taste and convenience is hard. If it was easy everyone would be doing it. She’s doubled down on her commitment to nutrition and it’s already showing up in her energy levels. ✨💪

-Huge bright spot: her whole family joined her for a Saturday morning run. Involving our loved ones in healthy activities is the way. Yes, it’s important to tell our kids to be healthy but modeling it is even more important. Well played Kate.

-She doubled her time on grip strength hang test yesterday! Her lifting form is stellar on all the foundational exercises she learned too.

-Back to how she made her health a priority: We call it healthy selfishness at Feel Better Training… creating time for our own health is how we set ourselves up to take care of anyone or anything else. That can be especially hard for a Mom used to taking care of everyone else first. If she can do it so can you!

Congratulations on moving to our Ascend Phase Kate! She’s moving on from Development Phase (one on one training) to following FBT training on her own. We believe in you!

Let’s hear it for Kate everyone! 👏 🙌

Their journey started with the chair strength training class Feel Better Training offers Gibson Memorial Library

After that Peg and Jackie decided they wanted to invest more time into building strength to put more life into their years.

One of my favorite things is helping clients add movement snacks to their daily life.

Jackie decided her daily movement snack would be dancing in the mornings. When I asked what kind of music she listened to while dancing? Michael Jackson of course! 🕺🏻

Peg does daily walks for her movement snacks.
They are both getting much better with nutrition to support their strength training. 🫡💪

She did it! Candy is graduating into our Ascend Phase with high honors. It started with her attending a free strength training class we offer Gibson Memorial Library and from there she dove in headfirst to her Feel Better journey.

-Undoubtedly the strongest 60+ year young client we’ve ever worked with. All her lifts in the foundational movement patterns improved considerably.

-Locked in new habits on all 4 Pillars of Health:
1) Exercise/Daily movement
2) Nutrition
3) Sleep/Recovery
4) Mindset/Stress management

-Lost body fat while building lean muscle.

-Talks to herself nicer and proved to herself she is the kind of person who follows through after trying many different fitness programs throughout her life. She’s made health and fitness a lifestyle instead of a 30 day challenge.

Ascend is phase 3 of our program.

Phase 1 is assessments and education.
Phase 2 is development (one on one training)
Phase 3 Ascend is where she follows Feel Better Training training on her own with weekly communication from a coach and a monthly check in.
Phase 4 is Freedom… where she’ll graduate into doing everything on her own living an active life safely and confidently.

So proud of you my friend and will miss your strong hugs! Can’t wait to see you for first check in and hear more of your bright spots.

Love,

Coach

We are open and thriving! Drop in and say hi 😊💪

Due to construction on Adams, Montgomery and Maple, it may be difficult to drive by some of your favorite Uptown Businesses. Have no fear, they are still open!

The Chamber encourages you to continue to support the Uptown Creston businesses during this season of construction. If you are able, consider walking, biking or parking in a different area to keep our Uptown thriving!

Candy said before she took our strength training class at the library she was ready to throw in the towel on life… to just give up.

After only a few months of strength training she has a new lease on life! Be like Candy. 🫡🙂💪

I’ve noticed a trend of getting more cancellations when the weather is cloudy and rainy. Be like Sharon and show up anyway!

She used to train 2 days a week. She was making progress but since we went to 3 days a week she’s shown a marked improvement in energy, balance, and strength.

Her motto: “I want to live every day until I die!” Considering she just celebrated her 86th birthday and is healthier & stronger than she was at 85 I’d say she’s winning!

The best time to start getting healthy was 5 years ago. The next best time is NOW. The worst time is next week or waiting for next year.

If we really get what we give Bre better be ready to receive a lot! I can’t describe what she’s meant to Feel Better Training and me personally but here’s what I can say…

Always believing in our mission, when I was stressed she was positive, when I felt overwhelmed she would say “what can I do to help”, when I was afraid to ask for help but did she’d say “no problem I got you.”

No matter what I asked her to do she delivered and always went above and beyond… she is the bright candle in a dark room … or makes a bright room even brighter. 🕯️ ✨

FBT wouldn’t be what it is without you Bre! Sad to see you go but more so happy and excited for you and your next adventure!

If you know Bre you love her. We sure do. Thank you a million times over! 🫂
