Most of the folks who sign up for Nutrition Coaching are after a strong, healthy, nice-looking body that makes them proud and keeps them feeling good for decades.

​

After 12 months — and, believe me, a lot of hard work — that’s what most achieve. 

​

However, despite all the amazing before and after photos, despite the fantastic weight loss, despite the gains in strength, there’s one thing that really makes them light up.

​

They’ve become capable, confident, and free.

​

That’s worth thinking about.

​

You see, my Nutrition Coaching is both research-driven (powered by Precision Nutrition ProCoach) and personal. This means I use the latest scientific findings to help coach people through the unique challenges in their own lives; whether physical or emotional ones.

​

It’s part physiology. Part psychology. Part science. Part art.

​

And it typically leads to fantastic physical changes: My clients lose weight, gain strength, go off meds, shed scary medical diagnoses, and more.

​

For most clients, these changes are only the tip of the iceberg. Because their improved bodies have now become vehicles for accomplishing inspiring things.

​

Indeed, they’ve become ready, willing, and able to tackle challenges they were previously afraid of, even incapable of.

 

About the Postcards From The Future exercise.

 

Throughout the program, clients are asked to envision where they’ll be in the future. What their new bodies will look like. What they’ll feel like. What they’ll be able to do.

 

But then, they take it one step further. I ask them to write ‘Destination Postcards’: Personal notes from their future selves to their current selves to inspire, motivate, and encourage.

​

Kinda like:

 

“Hey John, the weather’s great here. You won’t believe it but Dr. Smith, for the first time in years, gave us a clean bill of health. Plus, get this, we just ran a 5K. Can you imagine?!?”

 

Then, at the end of the program, I ask clients to make it real. To share photos and stories of what they are now able to accomplish after working with us.

 

The submissions are always incredible. And today I’m going to share a few.

​

These clients started out obese, or overweight, or injured, or bogged down, or unconfident, or feeling incapable, or imprisoned by all of the above.

​

Now, they’re climbing mountains, cycling on top of the world, and vaulting railings that stopped them before. Most importantly, they’re full of hope and looking forward to the adventurous, active years still ahead of them.
