Pollen or Covid?

Although we could not wait for Spring to arrive, to get outside and enjoy the beautiful weather after being cooped up for a year, many of us were dreading this pollen season. Growing up in Detroit I was never affected by pollen, but these days I watch the pollen count like I watch the weather. Millions of allergy sufferers feel my pain. But this season was different for me. I was diagnosed with being Covid-19 positive. When I went live to tell people that I was Covid-19 positive, many stated, but you look so good, high energy, no body aches, no chills, cough, fever, or any breathing issues. How did you get so lucky? Well first getting Covid isn’t lucky at all, ....

Just Do It and If You Fail Do It Again!

“He who fears he will suffer, already suffers because he fears.” - George Bernhard Shaw Read that one more time! This first week of Bootcamp I witnessed a lot of fear. I saw it in people’s eyes and facial expressions, and I heard it when they spoke to me over meal plans and while reviewing scans. I especially saw it when I was demonstrating certain exercises during the workout sessions. As I walked around the room, I noticed some clients never tried the exercises, because the fear overwhelmed them. Others tried once, failed, and quit trying, again due to fear. But then there were a few clients that tried, were successful and truly surprised themselves, ....

It’s Time to “Turn

I want to thank each and everyone of you all for participating in my 50 th birthday bounce back bootcamp. When I was a little girl, I used to think the age 50 was so old. This was my state of mind. The years have flown by and now I am officially 50. I could not imagine being any other age. I feel like one of the luckiest girls alive to able to see fifty blessed years, I am healthy, happy, I have peace, love and joy in all aspects of my life. For many the countdown begins and soon we no longer belong to the 30 something age group. While some may dread crossing the 40 and especially the 50 thresholds, I greeted this milestone with anticipation and open arms. While you cannot turn ....

It’s Time to Take your HEALTH serious!

I felt like several people were trying to April Fool me this week, but come to find out they were dead serious. All I can say is, it is TIME to take your health seriously before TIME runs out for you. As I was going over a client’s Fit3D scan I asked her if she had high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or diabetes. She quickly answered No! As I continued going over her scan, I asked her how much water she drinks in a day, she stated I do not drink a lot because my “water pill” makes me go to the bathroom too much. Some people forget I am a registered nurse of 26 years. I asked why she was on a water pill? She said just to get the extra fluid off (first, no ....

Why don’t you trust your trainer

It’s in our nature to bargain shop or to want to DIY. Why pay full price when you can score a discount or find a YouTube video and do it yourself, right? I don’t disagree with this mentality when it comes to getting a deal on some shoes, starting a small garden, or getting some decorating ideas. However, there are certain instances when choosing the rock bottom price or when DIY’s can really cost you not only extra money and time but possibly even your life. I find that when it comes to fitness many people come up with their own idea of how they can lose weight quickly, based on someone they follow on social media. The person they follow is a friend who ....

My Birthday Advice

I never know what I am going to write for the newsletters until I sit down at the computer. I often think about conversations I’ve had with my family, friends, or clients and draw inspiration from there for the newsletter. March 8th I celebrated my 50th birthday and during Bootcamp this week we kicked off my birthday celebration TFC style. We dressed up in 70s attire, we laughed and danced for the birthday chick, and after I wiped my last tear of joy a dear client shared something with me that resonated in my soul. This client has been with me for 5 years said, “You have more years behind you than you do before you so live every day in happiness and with a purpose” I ....

This is 50!!!!!

Welcome to my 50th Birthday Bounce Back Bootcamp! The number 50 couldn’t be more perfect to represent my present state of mind, position in life and prayer for all my clients. As I walked back into the gym on day one of this epic 50th Birthday Bootcamp, I felt a vibe in the air that I hadn’t experienced in a long time. It felt like the old school TFC. Although we are social distancing, I could physically feel the hugs that I used to give and receive daily. I saw the genuine care and concern for others as people were doing their PT tests, getting their body scans, adjusting to my return to the stage and the first workout or encouraging one another to keep ....

“Quick Fix” Syndrome

Can I get it, Get it, Get it? Today is another day to get better. Often when we are focusing on improvement, we start EXTREMELY motivated. We don’t miss workouts, we eat clean, and we do all the right things to ensure success. Progress is going well, we’re doing awesome. Then suddenly… That initial energy and enthusiasm fizzle out. Usually, we are SO focused on the outcome and end result that we get frustrated all together when we don’t reach our goal immediately, no matter the amount of progress nor the number of successes we’ve achieved. More often than not, we would all LOVE overnight results. I call this ....

This place is truly No Mess. Be prepared to get what you put in. Taddas’s Fitness gives you every opportunity to reach your goals, from meal plans, excellent trainers and dynamic work outs. Most importantly it’s the atmosphere and people. We work hard together, push and encourage one another. You will not find that at LA fitness or Planet fitness . I love it and because of it I love me inside and out.

I am half way through my first boot camp with Taddas and I am truly impressed. I wasn't sure I could do it and a few people confirmed that I was crazy to sign up when I haven't worked out in years but I was determined to at least try. Well I love it and am looking forward to being on that other stuff for the next few weeks. Tadda has helped me change my way of thinking and I'm healthier because of it. I've tried some foods I would never try before. I'm eating foods because of the nutritional value and how it will benefit me. I know, I can't believe I said that either. I recommend Tadda's Fitness to anyone looking for a healthier you. #nomess
