So you’re ready to make some lifestyle changes and really start taking care of your health this year? It can be overwhelming with all the conflicting advice from different sources. Sure, you can follow any random workout program you find on YouTube or Instagram, but is it right for you? What credentials does the person hold who created it and is it safe? When it comes to nutrition, it can be dangerous to do some diets longterm. One person may tell you it’s safe to consume a certain food, while another tells you it’s not. Unless you’re taking advice from a certified or licensed professional who has experience in Holistic principles and organic standards, it may be the wrong advice.

Why I don’t use or recommend supplements/foods with silicon dioxide -
What is it? A form of nanotechnology that is between 1-100 nanometers. This could potentially have negative effects on cellular health, especially over time. It may also cause allergic reactions and digestive issues. In Europe where standards are more strict than the US, silicon dioxide is NOT classified as safe for consumption. To me, it’s not worth the risk.

Hi, my name is Laurie Carroll. I'm glad you stopped by. I'd like to tell you a little more about myself and what I offer at Gunz & Bunz LLC. There are many choices for fitness training in our area, so I would be delighted if you decide to let me help you reach your goals!
My love for fitness probably stems back to my childhood, when I would attend classes with my mom, who taught aerobics. In my teens and early adulthood, like most women, I struggled with body image and tried crash diets, pills and even starving myself. Needless to say, none of those things helped me to achieve the ideal body and self-confidence I was trying to obtain.
I came to a point where I was putting myself in danger, through trying to control every single thing I ate. My doctor told me I was borderline anorexic, and if I kept up my current behavior, I would end up in the hospital soon. I knew something had to change. My obsessive compulsive behavior was wreaking havoc on my health.
I slowly began to make changes as I educated myself on proper nutrition and fitness. It was during this time, that I was attending Southern Wesleyan University for my Bachelor's in Business Administration, when I decided that my passion was in health and fitness. I would talk to family and friends and tell them that I knew what I wanted to do with my life. I wanted to become a personal trainer so that I could help others, who like me, wanted to change for the better. I don't think anyone ever took me seriously at that point, or believed that I could achieve this dream that God had placed on my heart.
Soon after, I started working as a personal trainer under some wonderful mentors. In the years that followed, I would complete numerous workshops, certifications, licensures and attend events that helped to further my knowledge of the industry. The experience with clients at all different ages and fitness levels is what really helped me to become the best trainer possible, and continues to enhance my skills.
Over the years I have continued to further my education and I aspire to be the best at what I do. My love for fitness and nutriton has continued to deepen and it brings me joy to share this love with each and every one of you! My goal is to give you the tools and education you need to treat your body with the care it deserves, and my hope is that my passion for these things fuels you to share this knowledge with your family and friends. My heart is that each of you live longer, healthier lives because of the changes you make!
