Check Out What Past Participants Have to Say
“I decided to join the Healthy Habits program because I thought I knew how to have a healthy diet and lose weight but wasn’t having the success I wanted on my own. I knew a group setting would help motivate me.
Healthy Habits really surprised me. Most of the habits are things I’ve continued to do after the program and plan to continue indefinitely. During the program I lost weight, toned up and could feel myself getting better at a lot of movements at the gym.
As the weight slowly came off I could tell it was easier to do things like burpees, box jumps, push ups and other body weight movements. Increasing and being aware of my protein intake left me with more energy for evening workouts.
Before the program I never really bought into the idea that carbs and processed foods made you tired and sluggish. One day mid healthy habits I had a sandwich from Jimmy Johns from Lunch and could barely keep my eyes open that afternoon. It was a good lesson that what I eat directly impacts my performance at work and the gym.”
–Jen Rice, Foundry Printer’s Row Athlete
Those of you who have been a Foundry member or CrossFitter for a while have likely been introduced to the Paleo or Zone diet and possibly participated in a nutrition challenge in the past. While these challenges serve as a great template for learning how your food choices affect you, it can be difficult to maintain consistency once the challenge is complete.
Healthy Habits is a 12-week program that introduces nutrition and lifestyle changes in an incremental way resulting in the ability to lose body fat, build muscle, and, most importantly, learn how to maintain these results moving forward. The program includes bi-weekly habits, nutrition education, strategies for implementation, advanced body composition analysis, a weekly scorecard and friendly competition. Heading up the program is Coach Matt Brown: CF-L1 Coach, Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, Precision Nutrition Level I Coach, 5-year CrossFit Athlete and Foundry Coach.
Nutrition is the cornerstone for optimal mental and physical performance. The Healthy Habits program offers you the choice between fat loss or lean mass gain and will help you achieve your body composition and performance goals more quickly and effectively than with exercise alone. You will develop tools and knowledge to achieve your goals during the program and maintain your results well into the future.
