Mind & Body Resilience Coaching

Your coaching experience is a whole body focus and will adapt and change as you do. TJ will help you take back your health and well-being, and declare your intention for what you want in your own wellness. Ever wonder why some people are always working out but not really getting anywhere? Their mistake is that they are not incorporating a program complete with strength exercises, movement patterning, neuromuscular re-education (and rewiring), timing, and stretching. Everybody is different and should have a program designed to facilitate change to achieve their goal.

To perform exercises or movements your body is not prepared for can cause injury and slow your progress in reaching your goals. I will help by providing the proper movements for the abilities of your body and guide your progress as your body changes.

Health Screening

A health screening includes Weight, Body Mass Index, Blood Pressure, Hip-to-Waist Ratio, and body fat percentage. Having measures of where your health status is helps you to know how to change it.

Metabolic Testing

As we age, our metabolism changes. Challenging situations such as stress, varying activity levels, dietary needs, pregnancy, hormonal imbalances, illnesses, and changing medications affect our metabolism. Knowing how your metabolism is functioning helps to identify and develop the most effective path to help you reach your health and wellness goals.
Nutrition, movement, and proper structural alignment is key to longevity and an increased quality of life. Knowing your body’s resting metabolic rate helps you to understand your body’s daily caloric needs. This helps us know how much you should be eating to stay healthy and understand the health of your organs. This information is key to developing proper strategies to help you achieve your health and wellness goals.
