It’s Friday, or should we call it Fryday! 🍟
Today we are sharing an air fryer recipe for sweet potato fries!
All you need is 2 sweet potatoes, a little olive oil and some seasoning that you enjoy.
Peel those taters and slice them to your desired thickness, though we recommend near ¼ inch. 🍠
Toss those bad boys in a bowl with the oil and seasoning. 🧂 In the words of Outkast “Shake it like a polaroid picture!” toss the potatoes around so they get the oil and seasoning on them. 🖼️
Throw them in the air fryer for around 12 min, shaking it at the halfway point.
Then you can yummy down on those fries with your dipping sauce of choice.

Simple changes like using the air fryer and adjusting recipes can make a huge difference in weight loss goals. Our trainers and staff have tried tons of different “healthy” recipes, so we can tell you if they are worth your time. We can tell you whether the recipe is 🤢 or 😍

We are back at it again with another 30 Min Mission workout. 🎉
Do you only have 30 minutes to hit chest? WE GOT YOU! 🦍

As always, the free weight exercises can be scaled. One can utilize dumbbells for the barbell bench press.
The intention of the first lift is to be heavy. We are getting strong today! 💪
If you happen to have extra time, you can add more machines or just lift more weight.😎 Some recommended machines are the chest press (machine 11) and the tricep press (machine 14).

Feel free to ask the staff to spot your lift or check technique. We are here for you! 💛

Let us know how your workout went in the comment section.

Have you ever felt guilty about missing the gym? 😞 You’re not alone!
Maybe you were too busy. Maybe it didn’t fit your work schedule. Maybe you woke up late for work and couldn’t go in the morning. 😴⏰🚘🏢
For your convenience we are open 24/7. You don’t have to feel guilty because the gym is always available to you. 🥳
You work the night shift and get off work at 3am? We are open. You have insomnia and are bored at midnight? You can workout rather than doomscroll 💪
We know what it feels like to miss a gym session, but we try to make it as convenient as possible so you don’t have to miss?
Interested? Call us at (681) 207-5059 to inquire about memberships. You can also purchase a day pass on our website to try us out.

We recently did a post describing how leg strength affects brain health as we age.
What we didn’t do is go into depth of exercise itself’s effect on the brain.

Exercise stimulates the body to produce brain-derived neurotrophic factor, which is a neurotropic protein that fosters neuroplasticity. In layman’s terms, this protein promotes the growth of neurons as well as help the existing neurons to survive. Who doesn’t want to protect their brain and nervous system? 🪴

Some studies have shown that exercise can also increase the volume of the hippocampus (the memory formation and learning part of the brain)
Literally trying to get this big brain energy in our lives. 🧠

Plus, exercise is known to help with emotional regulation. How many times have you heard the joke that “my gym membership is cheaper than therapy”? So, there actually is merit to that, although some of y’all probably do need therapy 😅
But we aren’t here to judge.

Want in on this big brain energy? Our memberships are a great deal and provide lots of value to your life and brain! Call us at (681) 207-5059 📲 and we can help you out.

When we say “I got that dog in me” these are the dogs in question. 🐶🐾

We probably spent more time thinking about this than we should have😅😂

Have you ever thought about what dog you would be? Leave a photo or a gif of your dog or whatever dog you would like to be.

Wonder why our trainers are so good? We have some qualities you don’t find everywhere.

Jake and Courtney have been doing this fitness thing for a while, and have experience with all sorts of training clients. They have worked with young athletes, older individuals, parents, and everyone in between. 🧓🧒🧑‍🧑‍🧒

Our current trainers both have degrees in exercise science. 🤓📚
Every trainer we hire at least has a personal trainer certification, if not, higher education than that. We go above and beyond for our clients to ensure the best possible people are here for you.

Everyone loves sharing their life story with our personal trainers… and they listen! They also adjust your training when something happens, like an injury at work or you didn’t sleep the night before training. 👂

Our trainers watch the latest trends and do their best to stay up to date on the current training literature. This is an industry that has emerging evidence every day, and we are interested in what has advanced and what principles still hold true.

If encouragement was not part of our vocabulary, we probably would not have such great trainers. Plus, if extra encouragement is needed, they are not afraid to get Alan and Tina in on the action. Nothing like all of the staff cheering for you during your max lift. That level of support could bring a tear to a grown man’s eyes 🥲

In all seriousness, our trainers work hard to give you the best workout experience for your goals. They are constantly learning and working hard for you, because when you succeed, they do, too.

We have been told that we have the cleanest gym in the area. We have to live up to that reputation!
You'll catch us cleaning something every day. Just don't tell Alan that he missed a spot 🧹🧽🪣🧴

Big brain energy does not always come from the classroom. 🧑‍🏫
There is increasing research in the effects of exercise on brain health.
So, how does exercise affect brain health? 🧠
A long term study from King’s College compared identical twins leg strength with brain health and cognitive performance. The twin with greater leg strength had more grey matter, and performed better on memory, reasoning, and cognitive tasks over time. So as they aged, the stronger twin performed better. Our take away from this is to not skip leg day! 🦵
But that is not the only study focusing on the effects of exercise on brain health. Lactate that forms from exercise (specifically anaerobic) has been shown to stimulate learning and memory processes.

📝More research is being conducted and is needed to make any conclusive statements. However, overall brain health is not hindered, but likely improved by exercise and strength training throughout life.

It is never too late to start working out!

We have machines and professionals that can assist you during any part of your fitness journey.

We go hard in the gym, and we take recovery seriously!
Some of our favorite ways to recover are
🗞️Foam rolling because it helps loosen up tight muscles and fascia (connective tissue that covers muscles and other parts of the body).
🍽️ Good food can help to replenish the glycogen stores depleted from exercise. It also helps to get your protein in, which helps to rebuild damaged tissues from exercise.
🧖The sauna helps blood to flow to the sore and tired muscles so that they can recover faster, and it builds resilience to temperature. And our saunas are pretty nice, not gonna lie.
💦 Hydration is important, especially after a sweaty workout. Your body needs the water to transport nutrients, keep stable blood pressure, and maintain homeostasis. You can keep track of this by weighing yourself before and after a workout and noting the difference or one could just be mindful of fluid loss. :water
😴 Sleep is when your body takes time to repair itself from activity, stress, and life. This is one of the most important pieces in recovery.

Y’all have a fantastic and relaxing day!
