At DIAKADI weight loss coaching is a structured, evidence based process built around individualized assessment, intelligent training, and long term accountability. Each client follows a personalized plan designed to support sustainable fat loss while maintaining strength and performance.

Jonny began his journey in March of 2023 at 24.9 percent body fat. Through consistent coaching, progressive training, and nutrition strategy, he reduced his body fat to 15.8 percent by July of 2024, losing over 20 pounds of fat while building long term habits that support continued progress.

Sue started her weight loss journey in March of 2024 at 24.7 percent body fat. By August of 2024, she reduced her body fat to 19.3 percent while losing fat and gaining lean muscle.

Both journeys were guided by DIAKADI coach Austin (.fitness), one of several DIAKADI coaches who specialize in weight loss and apply the same high standard of individualized programming, nutrition guidance, and habit focused support across every client they coach.

Plans evolve through regular assessments so results remain intentional, measurable, and sustainable.

Ask the Coach: How do you go about creating a New Year’s resolution for yourself, and how do you keep them?

As we step into a new year, our coaches share how they set meaningful resolutions—and actually follow through.

Gavin (): “I spend time reflecting on the year just gone, my aim is to maintain a healthy balance between my physical, emotional, and mental health. I then plan on how I can improve that balance in the New Year—maybe I need to be more consistent with my strength training? Maybe I need to socialize more? Spend more quality time with my family? Or maybe I need to visit a new place or try a new hobby? I then make a plan and work toward achieving my resolutions.”

Tracy (): “I start by setting goals that support my own well-being, knowing that taking care of myself allows me to be fully present for my clients. I focus on intentions that help me slow down and create balance, including prioritizing things I might otherwise put off, like doctor’s appointments. By doing so, I can consistently show up feeling grounded, healthy, and energized.”

We’ve added two brand-new pieces of equipment!

We now have a second Lat Pulldown (located on our first floor) which includes a Low Row Machine.  

Also, we are psyched to introduce a Belt Squat Machine into our extensive list of lower-body equipment options. The Belt Squat allows for heavy loading opf the legs with minimal stress on the spine. This makes it a valuable tool for building strength, supporting joint health, and progressing safely over time.

Every piece of equipment at DIAKADI is chosen to support how you move, not just how much you lift. These new machines are now on the floor and ready to be integrated into your training.

Ask the Coach: How Do You Practice Moderation During the Holidays?

We asked our DIAKADI advanced coaches how they stay consistent — without missing out.

Aurora (): “Holiday Aurora needs to stick to a movement routine as a constant so that I go into the holidays feeling grounded when schedules and nutrition are different. I set some intentions before going to gatherings, and while I’m there, I choose what’s worth indulging in and what’s not and not overdoing it. Setting up a holiday identity helps me make good choices and knowing I have a workout the next day reins me in.”

Anthony () : “Between traveling, social gatherings, and all the irresistible desserts, practicing moderation during the holidays can be really tough! That’s why I like to go in with a plan: Instead of piling a huge plate right away, I start small. I take a little bit of everything; I’m excited to try it, enjoy it, then pause for a quick check-in. If I'm about 80% full, not hungry but not about to burst like a blueberry in W***y Wonka, I hit the sweet spot! If I'm not quite there, I go back for seconds of my favorite dish! The same goes for desserts; instead of a full slice of pie, I slice a smaller one, knowing that someone else will probably appreciate my bravery and take the other half. This approach satisfies my urge to finish everything on my plate, while still letting me enjoy all the incredible dishes my family and friends poured their hearts into making.”

What helps you stay grounded this time of year?

To Our DIAKADI Community…

Billy and I want to extend our deepest gratitude to all of you who contributed to Compass Family Services’ Adopt a Family program this year. Together, our DIAKADI community raised over $3,000 to support an 8-member household.

Thanks to your incredible generosity, we were able to provide this family with everything on their needs lists—items many of us might take for granted. This family received grocery funds, gift cards for clothes, gift cards for the parents to care for themselves during the holiday season, and the most-needed and most-wished-for gifts for each child.

Beyond fulfilling their immediate needs, we had some left over to include extra gift cards, giving the family the opportunity to save for a vacation, enjoy a special meal out, or purchase something meaningful for their household—things they may not have been able to do otherwise.

This family has faced significant challenges, and I am overjoyed that our community came together to bring some light and magic into their lives this holiday season. Billy and I completed the shopping and wrapping this weekend, and the physical gifts and gift cards will be dropped off tomorrow. The family will receive them next week, just in time for the holidays.

Once again, thank you for being part of this beautiful effort. Your kindness and generosity have made a meaningful difference, and we couldn’t be more proud of what we’ve accomplished together.

Wishing you all a joyous and peaceful holiday season!
Happy Holidays!

Mike and Billy

Holiday stress is real — the gift doesn’t have to be.

At DIAKADI, massage therapy isn’t just a luxury — it’s a purposeful way to help someone recover smarter, feel lighter, and move more freely, whether they’re recovering from daily stress, a tough workout, or just need a reset this season.

Our expert therapists tailor every session to the body in front of them, supporting alignment, mobility, pain relief, and overall well-being — so your loved one leaves feeling recharged, rebalanced, and ready to take on the holidays (and the new year).

Perfect for the busy friend, hard-working parent, athlete, or anyone who deserves a moment of calm.

Give the gift of recovery and relaxation this holiday season.

Strength is built through consistency, intention, and the support of the people around you.

At DIAKADI, we know training is more impactful when it’s shared, which is why our Partner Fitness Program is designed for duos who want to elevate their performance together.

This is not a generic buddy workout. It’s two personalized programs, coached simultaneously, created around your individual bodies, goals, and movement history. You and your partner train side by side, each receiving expert guidance while benefiting from the motivation and accountability that naturally comes from working as a team.

We don’t just focus on exercises. We focus on the whole human—how you move, how you feel, and how you grow over time. If you and your partner are ready to invest in your health with clarity and purpose, this program offers a powerful way to move forward together.

It’s time for one of our favorite DIAKADI traditions — our annual Adopt-A-Family Program with Compass Family Services.

We’re aiming to raise $3000 to fulfill their holiday wishlist — essentials, gifts, and items that will bring comfort and joy. 100% of every donation goes directly to purchasing their gifts.

HOW TO DONATE:
+ Venmo DIAKADI owner Mike Clausen (-Clausen-3)
+ Drop off cash/check donations at the DIAKADI front desk
+ Deadline: December 5th

Thank you to our heart-led DIAKADI community for always showing up with compassion and love.
