Born and raised in Utah, a state known for its plethora of outdoor activities and family dinners, you might expect me to have grown up with healthy habits;\u00a0 You would be wrong.\u00a0 The youngest of 4, and the only left at home, I grew up primarily eating fast food.\u00a0 My family is heavy, and I have struggled with weight for many years.<\/p>\n
I have always had the dream to pursue acting, and at the age of 15 decided if I wanted to make it far in that industry I would need to get in shape.\u00a0 I started going to the gym, but had no clue what I needed to do to actually see progress.\u00a0\u00a0 My real journey to fitness and health started in college when I joined the cross-country team and started eating healthier.\u00a0 My diet ranged from “normal” to vegan at some points.\u00a0 I came to love being physically active and healthy.\u00a0 I realized that the body is an instrument that we need to treat properly–\u00a0 We only have this body for a limited time and with proper care we can be healthy for a long long time.<\/p>\n
Now, almost 5 years out of college, with some ups and downs, I am back to my college weight.\u00a0 Nice part is, I don’t have to run 5-7 miles a day to stay here.\u00a0 With proper nutrition and activity I am able to stay in shape and not spend hours upon hours working out every day. Along the way, I tried so many different methods to lose weight to no avail.\u00a0 At one point I was only eating 1200 calories, working out 2 hours daily and didn’t lose any weight. I tried almost every diet known to man, and it wasn’t until I really did some research that I figured out the right way for my body to slim down and tone up.\u00a0 Gabe and I realized through our journey into health and fitness that a lot of the necessary information and resources to help ourselves and others reach their goals were not easily accessible.<\/p>\n
That is where this blog comes in.\u00a0 We want to help you to reach your goals too, in a healthy way.\u00a0 We, having opposite goals (He wants to bulk while I want to lose weight) will be able to give advice in both areas, so no matter what you are looking for you should be able to find it here. We will be sharing our thoughts on fitness routines, diets, recipes, and many other areas to give you the tools for success.\u00a0 You can be healthy and happy– Trust me. . .\u00a0 It takes work, but is worth it in the end.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
