The Shifting Years Difference
You’ll be coached by career professionals who understand what it means to juggle a pressure packed career and family life. We spent years playing that role and learned - the hard way - about events like business travel, meetings and dinners with clients as well as the responsibilities of family. A successful - meaning permanent - lifestyle with workouts, diet and healthy habits will help you integrate your responsibilities into a system that produces excellent results while still allowing you to enjoy life, have great times with family and friends and not worry about ruining the results of your hard work.
We’re not here to shove you into a cookie cutter program because, while it might give you good results, they’ll only last as long as you can keep a death grip on the program itself. You’ve done the work to get there and there’s nothing we hate more than seeing someone reach their goals, leave us and then – a year or two later – and they’re as big as or bigger than when we first met. We know how frustrating it can be to spend year after year and attempt after attempt losing the ten or twenty pounds you somehow keep “finding.” There’s a better way.
It may take a little bit longer but it produces results that are “sticky” which makes them much more permanent because they’re based on incremental changes to your habits and lifestyle. Just like building a career, a business or raising a family, it takes slow, careful work but the reward is a system that produces results automatically and continuously.
Along the way you’re going to find that you:
Feel better and better about yourself.
Increase your energy and stamina.
Lose the weight you’ve struggled with for so long and then keep it off.
We started this journey a long time ago and noticed as we reached our forties and fifties things didn’t seem to work the way they did when we were younger. And that wasn’t working for us. We realized there’s no better way to enjoy a long, happy and successful life than being healthy, liking how you look and feeling great about yourself.
The Benefits of Shifting Years Coaching
We’re going to live life to its fullest, enjoy great times with friends and family and we’re still going to reach our goals. It’s the secret to staying at our goal weight, reaching new levels of fitness and muscle, if we want, while not yo-yoing until we just give up.
We’ll…
Work together to make an ongoing series of small changes to the way you see and think about food, exercise and health. Those small changes produce results automatically and, over time, add up to progress that lasts because it’s the result of carefully building a system designed to produce it instead of following a “program.”
Carefully build a lifestyle that focuses on healthy habits that also include eating foods we enjoy, having a great time with family and friends, going on vacations, enjoying holidays and also learning that making mistakes with all of this is part of life.
Fight the symptoms of aging like muscle loss, increasing body fat, Type 2 diabetes, heart disease and osteoporosis, it boosts cognitive benefits and fights the horror of Alzheimer’s.
Learn…
The relationship food, drink, exercise, sleep and stress have to our current weight and body composition, how to alter that current state and how to live at our new weight and body composition while still eating and drinking our way through life.
How to implement strategies around nutrition, exercise and living that automatically produce the results you want and help you stay there forever.
Enjoy eating out and how to order at restaurants - the pitfalls and better options - and that it’s okay to go crazy every once in a while.
A way to arrange eating and exercise so they’re compatible with your lifestyle and can be easily executed over the years.
Deal with family, business travel, holidays and spending all day on the weekends at football, Little League or gymnastics while knowing how to handle it.
To reach, and then live, at your goal weight where you enjoy life and all it has to offer. Go to restaurants with friends and family and travel to all the places you’ve dreamed about knowing you have the tools and the knowledge to keep your weight and physique right there through it all.
Build…
A healthy lifestyle that supports your goals and the new you you’ve created. We won’t say you can’t have a drink, eat dessert or enjoy the holidays – we’re saying life requires it – or whatever your version of it happens to be. You’ll be able to stay at your goal weight indefinitely while learning how to occasionally sit outside, drink beer, eat nachos or whatever happens to strike your fancy.
An exercise system that effectively changes body composition by removing fat, adding muscle and reducing cardiovascular disease factors such as high blood pressure, A1C, cholesterol, triglycerides and blood glucose levels.
A system allowing you to function on a day-to-day basis while producing the results you want to see.
A system defining the boundaries and encouraging you to have treats and indulge yourself because that’s what life is made of – great times with family and friends.
Daily meals from foods you enjoy eating, that are whole and healthy, eaten in the correct amount and with the occasional sinful indulgence will last a lot longer than a diet you can’t stand.
An exercise program that’s palatable while producing fabulous results and the health benefits that go along with it. If you’re stuck with an exercise program you hate, it’s a guarantee you won’t do it for long.
We’re going to make all of this easy to do over a long period of time and with the normal distractions that happen in a busy, everyday life.
Our Accountability To You
We’re here with you every step of the way because we’ve walked the same path as our clients. Our goal when we started Shifting Years was to give clients the advice we wish we’d received. We started coaching full time because it was something we did after our regular professional jobs and we wanted to help people avoid the things we struggled with during our journey.
Depending on the program, we’ll do phone calls each week; we’ll custom tailor the workout program to your unique life situation and experience and provide education on developing an eating plan that will allow you to enjoy the foods you love while still making progress towards the physique, health and energy you’ve dreamed of having. We’ll track your progress and you’ll receive weekly reviews along with a self-study curriculum designed to help you build the lifestyle that automatically produces results.
We’ll educate you on dealing with off-schedule eating situations, the daily emergencies that occur in this hectic life and how to keep them from throwing you off track. Most importantly, you’ll learn to enjoy vacations, football games on the weekend, special events and the holidays while avoiding the dread that often accompanies those occasions.
Even the inevitable mistakes are celebrated as learning opportunities because everyone makes them and will continue to do so. It’s not the special occasions that get us into trouble, it’s the everyday. There aren’t enough holidays and birthdays to make us overweight or unhealthy. We’ve had to reach way back into the everyday in order to do so. We’ll work together to build a system that keeps you from ending up right back where you started and makes sure you don’t “find” that weight you lost.
Remember: If you want something to change you’re going to have to change something.
We’ll show you how to do it. You’ll realize the new way is far better than anything you’ve tried before.
