💯 Let’s get real for a quick second.. - I used to be embarrassed to take my shirt off in public. My confidence was in the toilet, I hated the way I looked, and most importantly I hated the way I felt. - I felt lunky, sluggish, weak, and tight. The pool was my #1 enemy because I knew I had to get shirtless to get in the pool. I knew I had to reinvent myself. - Flash forward 7 years and I’ve dropped over 50lbs of body fat and increased my muscle mass substantially. I’m not saying that it’s easy but I will say that it is 100% worth it to take control over your health. - Nowadays I can’t wait to strip my shirt off and jump into the pool! It truly is a beautiful thing when you take control over your health and start working towards a better you. - If you feel stuck and don’t know what to do to get out of the hole you are trapped in, please send me a DM. Know you are not alone in your fight to become the BEST version of yourself! - #fitness #fitnessmotivation #mystory #transformation #motivationmonday #pushyourself #notalone #weightloss #fatloss #pool #summer #summervibes #sixpackseason #bodybuilding #fitnessmodel #flex #mentalhealth #movemore #thefitcooklife (at Sandy Springs, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEAYLVUH6LW/?igshid=1qtspkrd9tsna

It’s SIX PACK SEASON! 🌞 . Here is one of my favorite variations of an Alternating V-Up that hits your abs and obliques at the same time! I like to call that a Core Crusher!🔥 . The key to doing this variation is to really emphasize the twist at the top by reaching across for the outside pinky toe with the opposite hand and rotating your same side arm back behind you making a T. That rotation at the top really puts this one over the edge!👌🏻 . Just for added measure I like to include a pause at the top and really focus on making my stomach as flat as possible. I promise this one is killer!🥵 . If you’re interested in working with me to reach your fitness goals, send me a DM and let’s schedule a FREE Consultation! . #fitness #abs #absworkout #sixpack #summerbody #fitnessgoals #functionaltraining #freeworkout #personaltrainer #onlinetraining #groupfitness #activelifestyle #thefitcooklife #canon (at Sandy Springs, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCoihmwHFn2/?igshid=5t6jlgfz44j4

It has taught me a valuable lesson in patience and self-control. ✌🏻 . I highly recommend you find something healthy that allows you to escape the craziness of the world. Whether it be fishing, hiking, exercising, singing, reading, drawing, or whatever else tickles your fancy.

Have you ever been doing a bench press and noticed that one side is a little bit harder to push? 🤔 . If you said YES, then start incorporating this exercise to your training routine! Chances are, you have a strength imbalance between your right and left sides. . By adding in the single arm chest press, you can expose that imbalance and start working to get both sides even so you stay safe when lifting! . Oh also this exercise hits the core like no other upper body exercise does so keep it tight and keep it controlled! . If you’re interested in learning more exercises that you can add to your workout routine, drop a COMMENT below and let me know for what muscle groups. 💯 . #fitness #chestworkout #exercisescience #coreworkout #strength #bodybuilding #functionaltraining #fitnesstips #fitnessinstructor #personaltrainer #atlantafitness #thefitcooklife (at Sandy Springs, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCTK_3QH7fy/?igshid=6g2aizw02zd9

This old pupperoni has been by my side for almost 10 years now. He enjoys going on walks in the woods, chasing squirrels, and ripping the heads off of his “babies”. 🐿 . He is my adventure buddy and never says no to getting outdoors and exploring! He is my excuse to get outside and is my best friend! 🐶❤️ . #dogdad #dogsofinstagram #doggo #hikingdog #boxer #mansbestfriend #adventure #explore #getoutdoors #smilemore (at Sandy Springs, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCHgX0mHpX6/?igshid=15ehpu3pe25o2

I love getting outside and enjoying the beautiful summer weather! This weekends adventures included some fishing, hiking, a pizza party, and a day out on the boat soaking up some sun rays!

Next time you have a craving for sweets, try eating some fruit instead! 🍉 . The natural sugar found in fruit can help to curb those cravings AND you also get vitamin and minerals from fruit that you probably wouldn’t get with your “cheat food”. Oh and not to mention, you get more bang for your buck when you choose fresh fruit!👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 . BONUS: When you choose fruit over candy or chocolate you get to EAT MORE! The high water content found it fruits means you can have more volume with less calories! This simple trick has helped me avoid mindless eating and help keep me on track with my personal fitness goals!💪🏻 . Try it out and see how it can help you! 💯 . #nutrition #healthylifestyle #fitness #fruit #watermelon #eating #food #summervibes #summertime #personaltrainer #diettips #eatclean (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB9SZz3nehn/?igshid=1ttscg1huh4bj

Another #fishingfriday in the books! 🎣 . Unfortunately all that was caught today was some sun rays but it was still a great time to get out by the water and relax for a little bit! .

🗣LETS GET MOVING! . After a few failed attempts I think I’m starting to get the hang of rotational snatches with a kettlebell. 💯 . Remember that your body is made to move in other directions besides forwards and backwards! Kettlebells are great for training in different planes of movement because they move with your body and follow the path you set for them! . If you’re interested in learning more kettlebell movements drop a COMMENT below 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 . Shoutout to @kettlebellkings for making my favorite kettlebells! . #fitness #kettlebell #snatch #control #explosive #functionaltraining #atlantafitness #kettlebellworkout #personaltrainer #thefitcooklife #healthylifestyle #core #kettlebellflow (at Sandy Springs, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB4JEE7HTS9/?igshid=1779wsuawseaj

This is one of my favorite moments for helping unlock upper back tightness! 👍🏻 . Sit those hips WAY back to help lock in your lower back and rotate your body as you reach up and back with one arm, aiming to make a T with your arms. . It’s important to move your body in all directions to avoid getting TOO TIGHT! Too much time seated with your shoulders rounded forward will do a number on your posture. . Interested in learning more mobility exercises?
