Our Mission – The Fat Loss Habit

No Gimmicks. No Quick Fixes. Learn to form the habits essential to developing a lean, hard, fit body. A program backed by science, not bro-science.

Our MissionOur mission is to help as many people as possible to improve the quality of their lives. I believe it begins with improving our health and appearance. I found this to be true in my own life. Our health is our most valuable resource. Exercise improves our mood and focus. It can lift us out of depression. It has even been shown to stimulate our mind. When we begin to look better, we begin to feel better. I believe a better life starts with the development of healthy habits because that is where it started for me.

flying blind

The most common excuse I hear, and probably the lamest is, “I don’t have time to log my food.” I get frustrated with this excuse more than any other. I am willing to help just about anyone, but when they refuse to log their food, that’s the moment I realize I am wasting my time and they’re never going to achieve results.
