I guide you back to your best you with a variety training techniques.

You'll gain fresh perspective and insight for how to resolve your health and fitness challenges that have plagued and prevented you from reaching your healthy lifestyle goals. The key to improving performance is choosing the right exercises that improve function while offering new challenges.

Breathing

Breathing diaphragmatically is foundational to improving balance and performing any other movement pattern. The likelihood of injury will increase dramatically if a desirable breathing pattern is not established.

Strength Training & Kaatsu

We will take a look at common exercises, lunge, squat, plank, push-up, pull-up and more. Explore how these exercises can be performed in a way that improves alignment and function for optimal health and reduced injury.

I offer the use of KAATSU. KAATSU established the BFR market and is the world-leader in Blood Flow Optimization training, recovery, and rehabilitation. Regular use of the KAATSU Cycle modality can enhance functional strength and muscle tone not only in your upper and lower body but, crucially, also in your core and lower back.

Glucose + Ketosis

Fasting glucose levels can easily be measured.  Fasting glucose is at the top of the list of important bio-markers to track and keep under control, since blood glucose levels are linked to many lifestyle diseases.  

Posture

Common posture misalignments can affect balance and movement. Learn about the interrelatedness of the feet, knee, pelvis, lumbar spine, shoulder girdle, and cervical spine to improve body alignment and overall health.

Yoga

Whether you’re new to yoga or an experienced practitioner, I help you reaffirm basic alignment in the poses with a focus on initiating a balance between strength and flexibility. I teach alignment concepts, and relevant anatomy associated with each pose.

Heart Rate Variability

How well can you bring it today?—that depends on your HRV. When your HRV is high it’s time to kick it, when it’s not, you’d better slow down. You won’t know unless you measure it.

Stabilization & Balance

Once you are able to breathe diaphragmatically, have improved posture, and the ability to optimally stabilize the joints, we will integrate these abilities into strength and movement patterns that will advance your fitness level within a solid and stable framework of balance.

Meditation

Working IN is as important as working out. Mediation is a primary component in my work. I also incorporate meditation practice using a Muse headband, giving real-time feedback on how well your meditation is going.

Grip Strength Indicator

Measuring grip strength as an indicator of overall body strength and longevity is incredibly important. It offers insight into strength capabilities and deficiencies. Again, you won’t know unless you measure it.

VO2max

It’s time to know your VO2max. I’ll take you through an estimated VO2max protocol. Once you have an estimate of your Vo2max we will then create a program to improve it.

VO2max correlates with longevity, and cardiovascular efficiency. Low VO2max correlates with high risks of cardiovascular disease and even early death not just from heart disease, but also cancers of the breast and colon. Improving your fitness (increasing VO2max) reduces the risk of early death from all causes. VO2max will decrease as we age. This is why it is imperative to train specifically to improve it.

Power Plate

Let’s incorporate the Power Plate into your workout. Power Plate vibrates up to 50 times a second sending tiny vibrations through your body. These tiny micro vibrations activate more muscles, burn more calories, improve circulation, assist muscle recovery, improve bone density and balance. Whole-body vibration is a technology that was first developed by scientists in the second half of the 20th century as a way to reduce bone density loss and muscle atrophy in astronauts exposed to zero-gravity conditions.
