😴 Take Your M.E.D.S. ---- S is for Sleep 😴
Sleep often gets pushed aside, but it plays a huge role in how we feel, move, and recover.
A helpful goal for most adults is around 8 hours of sleep per night. Just as important is sleep hygiene, creating habits that help your body wind down and rest well.
That can look like lowering lights in the evening, reducing screen time before bed, and stepping away from activities that keep your mind and body “on.”
You don’t have to change everything at once. Even one small habit, like putting your phone down a little earlier, can improve sleep quality.
👉 Better sleep supports better movement, recovery, and overall health.

This past January I set a hefty goal that I've contemplated doing for years, I signed up to compete in my first bikini bodybuilding competition. Like most people, I had made many excuses in the past why it wasn't the right time to pursue this interest. I 'm proud to say that I couldn't have made this dream come true without Dunamis Therapy & Fitness Center and its very own personal trainer, Lacey.
There are many ingredients that played a major role in my quest for fitness. I believe that Lacey helped prepare me for success by setting up consultations prior to my start date; where she walked me through the importance of meal prepping, organization, and time management. I left Dunamis Therapy & Fitness Center with the understanding that to make this work, I needed to hold myself accountable. I needed to meal prep on the weekends (this was a must, for my week to be successful). I needed to allot one to two and half hours of strength training and cardio, six days a week. I needed to understand that my bad sugar habits were going to be tough to break, but I had to be tough on myself. She warned me that the first couple of days were going to be rough but it will get easier mentally and physically. I was sore. I was hungry. And well, maybe, a bit crabby. Through every step of the way Lacey was always there to support me on my journey.
In addition, I really liked the app that she used to set up my workouts. This app allowed me to receive customized workouts, along with videos to help show me how to do an exercise. I connected my, "My Fitness Pal" account to it so that Lacey was able to monitor what I was logging on a daily basis. I was able to contact Lacey through this app or per text message. She was always prompt with support or feedback that I was seeking.
During my training, Lacey and I met on a regular basis to discuss how things were going struggles, strengths, and to measure my body composition —tracking the progress I was making. On a weekly basis, I weighed myself at home and took pictures that I shared with her, to continue monitoring my progress.
That being said, I feel that if you want results I whole-heartedly recommend Lacey for the job. She does a terrific job customizing a program suitable for your specific goals and you will get the results you are looking. Are you ready to take the next step?
Sincerely & forever grateful,
