Use THIS to achieve your goal (guaranteed to work…) This technique is so simple and yet it makes ALL of the difference when it comes to your results.

I believe that you deserve to get the best results possible from the time that you invest in exercise. Use THIS to achieve your goal… Crank up the intensity of your workout. You get what you give when it comes to exercise and results. When you simply go through the motions, while staying in your comfort zone, then results will ....

Get Fit Newsletter June 14, 2019 Once overweight, always overweight? While many people are able to lose a substantial amount of weight, very few keep the weight off for more than a year. In fact, less than 1% of the formerly obese will maintain their weight loss for more than a year, according to a study conducted in the UK in 2015. Specifically this broke down to just 1 man out of 210 and 1 woman out of 124. Does this mean that once overweight we are all doomed to stay overweight? Participants in the study were told to eat less and move more, a method that failed to deliver long-term results. Clearly this sound bite advice wasn’t enough. Now I ....

Get Fit Newsletter May 17, 2019 4 Easy Steps to Quit Junk Food If only junk food didn’t taste so good, then it would be easier to resist. The reason for its craveable flavor is a specialized balance of sugar, fat and salt. But while it tastes phenomenal…it’s detrimental to your fat loss results. Wondering what exactly classifies as junk food? You’re not alone, especially now that many junk foods are being cleverly marketed and packaged as healthy choices. Here’s what classifies junk food:
Junk food has little to zero nutritional value
Junk food is processed and packaged
Junk food is high in sugar, fat and salt

Get Fit Newsletter May 10, 2019 Get what you really want Have you ever acted against your better judgment? Ummmm, of course you have. We all have. Sometimes you do things that you later regret. And this keeps you from achieving that lean, sexy body that you want.
You hit snooze rather than waking up early to exercise before work.
You blow off your healthy eating plan to indulge in a hamburger and fries.
You start an exercise program only to drop out two weeks into it. These regrettable actions prevent you from achieving your goals and keep you stuck. Most of us are all too familiar with this frustrating paradox. It’s almost as if there are two ....

Get Fit Newsletter May 3, 2019 Better than crunches Your basic ab crunch isn’t the most effective way to get toned abs. It simply doesn’t activate your core muscles to the extent that other exercises do, it can hurt your back, and the small motion doesn’t do much by way of calorie burning. So why are you still doing crunches? What the basic ab crunch does have going for it is its no-equipment, on-the-go nature. You could plop down onto the ground in a park, a hotel room, at the beach or at the gym to crank out a round of crunches wherever you happen to be. Not the most effective, but, until now, the most convenient. It’s time ....

Get Fit Newsletter April 12, 2019 When you fail to see results from diet and exercise I saw an infomercial the other day for a weight loss solution targeting the frustrated people who, “fail to see results from diet and exercise.” Had to scratch my head on that one. When does diet and exercise fail? This, of course, is a trick question. Diet and exercise don’t fail. The only way for diet and exercise not to work is if you fail to stick with it long enough for the results to show. Plain and simple. End of story. I’ve seen more clients than I can count transform their bodies through the power of diet and exercise. Without ....

Get Fit Newsletter April 5, 2019 You’re 5 feet from gold… There is one reason why most people haven’t yet reached their goals, and it’s a simple one. It’s something that I’ve struggled in the past, and it just may be the one thing that’s holding you back from your big breakthrough. That one thing is consistency. Think about it. The difference that separates a fitness star from a couch potato is the consistency with which the former applies to their diet and exercise routine. That’s it! Look, I know you can exercise and eat right. You’ve done it before! But a fitness plan only works when you ....

I have been at southpaw for about 2 years and I must say this is my home away from home. All of the coaches and staff members are helpful and kind. The owners Stephanie and Vic don’t treat the gym members like clients, they treat them like family. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone who is looking to get a great workout and meet some great people.
