Coach Brooke
Hi there!
My name's Brooke and I'm so glad you're ready and willing to improve your lifestyle. After all, if you're reading this it's probably because you feel like you need to make a change, huh? Well, a little bit about me...
Health and Fitness hasn't always been a way of life for me. In fact, growing up I didn't really know what healthy was. I ate enough frozen meals and 'Cup O Noodles' to feed an Army, and I was only really good at one sport. Can't say that I was too athletically inclined.
It wasn't until I became a mom that I realized how truly out of shape and unhealthy I was. Not only was I a pack-a-day chain smoker, but I was also an avid binge eater and fad dieter who suffered silently for years repeating the binge and restrict cycle with a horrible relationship with food. I was out of breath moving from the couch to the floor to play with my son and that's when I knew I needed to make a change.
After trying fad diet after fad diet, losing and gaining the same 20-40 pounds, I realized that everything I was doing wasn't healthy or sustainable. I decided to go to school at the National Personal Training Institute for Fitness and Nutrition to teach people like you and I what it means to live a healthy, balanced lifestyle. Upon graduating, I became certified through the National Academy of Sports Medicine and have other certifications in TRX and Suspension Training, and Kettlebell Training.
I'm happy to say that throughout my own journey I've fallen in love with movement, developed healthy lifestyle habits and a healthy relationship with food where I believe all foods have a place in a balanced, sustainable diet.
Nothing is more rewarding to me than seeing you reach your goals. Whether it is developing a healthier relationship with food, or doing your first deadlift, nothing gives me more joy than seeing you succeed and gain confidence from the inside out.
I can't wait to work with you and always remember...
You got this! - Coach Brooke
