Build a plan for lasting change, specifically designed with you in mind.

 

The process for getting healthy has a bad rap.

If we listen to the experts, our perfect plan should look something like this… 

  • Eat chicken and broccoli for every meal. 
  • Workout for an hour a day. 
  • Stop snacking. 
  • Make sure you drink 8 glasses of water, walk 10,000 steps, and get at least 8 solid hours of sleep every day.
  • Maybe keto?

Oh, and you also have regular life obligations to fit in there somewhere.

A job that requires you to be at your best while navigating family needs and the “new normal” that comes with a global pandemic. 

Piece of cake.

did someone say cake meme

The perfect way to get healthy may sound good in theory, but it’s just not practical. And if we can’t do things perfectly, is it even worth trying at all? 

We hear this kind of thinking all the time from members of our community.

I’ll miss a workout, then it could become a week or more.

I always end up slipping into old patterns when something happens beyond my control.

I keep hitting walls, but can’t ignore this anymore.

If things aren’t perfect, I tend to say ‘”forget it.”

But here’s the thing.

Perfect is only perfect if you do it.

And someone else’s idea of perfect might be ok for them, but wildly unrealistic for you.

Perfect for YOU takes your life into account:

Your goals – both in health and fitness (I want to lose 20 pounds) and the way you like to enjoy life (I want to eat the same meal as my family each night)! 

It’s also flexible in a way that allows you to continue to make progress even when the inevitable stresses and surprises pop up. 

So we can listen to the experts and try to do their version of “getting healthy…”

Probably fail after 2 days like we’ve done before, and then give in to the idea that getting healthy just isn’t possible for you right now.

You’ll try again later when life settles down.

Or we can shift the way we think.

We can be honest that life isn’t going to “settle down.” 

Instead of relying on the expert’s idea of a perfect plan, we can build a sustainable, perfect-for-YOU plan that looks at getting healthy like a dial, not a switch

By shifting our thinking from “all or nothing” to “always something,” making progress can immediately feel less overwhelming. No matter life’s circumstances, there’s always something we can do.

And customizing your priorities allows you to laser focus on things will make the biggest impact as you balance your goals, your lifestyle, and the things that bring you joy (like chocolate!).

Sound like a superpower? 

Well, it sort of is.

But the good news is that you don’t need to be bitten by a radioactive spider or injected with super serum to bring these powers to life.

You already have all the tools you need. You just need someone to show you how to maximize them.

This intentional approach will help you to master skills before leveling up, and will set the stage for long-term change.

While your Coach is an expert in health and fitness, YOU are the expert about your life.

And when each of you brings your own expertise to the table? Bam. Magic happens.

If YOU commit to open, honest communication about your preferences and challenges…

Your COACH will outline clear, daily tasks to complete that strike the balance you need to feel supported, accountable, and confident in your own abilities.

And don’t forget about the secret sauce…

As we strive for our own version of perfect, one of the hardest considerations is mastering the push and pull: the balance of hitting your goals and keeping up with life. 

Knowing when to scale up and push yourself, when to stay the course, and when to give yourself permission to dial down is the secret sauce to lasting change.

With a Coach, that guesswork no longer has to take up space in your brain. 

Your job is to focus on taking action each day and communicate about any challenges.

Our job is to meet you where you are, make any necessary adjustments, and continue customizing your perfect plan over time.

Your Coach has a 50-foot-view of the work you’ve done and where you want to go. 

They know the challenges you’re up against, they can see when you’ve been consistently crushing workouts or tasks, and they know the path.  

Whether you want to build a plan for strength, weight loss, or just want to have more energy for daily life, we got you, and we’ll show you the way.

We’ve helped thousands of Rebels just like you unlock their superpowers and find permanent, lasting changes

Jimmy was a picky eater who wanted to look like Spider-Man

He thought he needed to eat foods he didn’t like and get a gym membership to achieve his goals, but under Coach Justin’s guidance, he went from Peter Parker to Spider-Man starting with ONLY bodyweight exercises at home and enjoying a nutritional strategy that kept his food preferences in mind.

Radioactive spiders: who needs ‘em?

Emily was obese her entire adult life and knew she needed to change

emily progress photos

After trying dozens of diets and popular (but generic) fitness plans, Coach Staci focused on an approach Emily LOVED (strength training!) and stuck with, prioritizing consistency over perfection. 

Now over 100 pounds down (!), Emily’s crushing handstands, a pro at meal planning, and still working with Staci on finding out what else her new body can do.

Sarah was a new mom with a full time job who struggled to stick to a plan

sarah progress photos

Her past efforts to lose weight were derailed when life got crazy, and with a new kid in the mix, those disruptions were now a given! 

With help and accountability from Coach Jules, Sarah made incremental adjustments to her nutrition and shifted her mindset about what a workout routine “should” be. The changes worked for her busy life, allowing her to surpass her initial goal weight (!), and Jules continues to help Sarah adjust the dial to keep making progress.

While their starting points and goals may have been completely different, they (and our other successful clients) share one important thing in common:

They worked with their Coach to build a perfect-for-them mindset and plan.

They approached the Coaching relationship with an open mind for collaboration, experimented with different types of skills to find what worked best, and built a structure uniquely their own that struck a balance between “regular life” and getting healthy.

Along the way, they learned when to lean in and push themselves and when to have patience and scale things to fit their life’s circumstances. 

They trusted their Coach to remove the guesswork and hold them accountable, and now they’ve each surpassed their initial goals and are pushing the limits of what they thought was possible!

When you become a client, here’s what you can expect from us:
  • A structured, tailor made roadmap that guides you through incremental habit change
  • Customized workouts based on your goals, preferences, and available equipment
  • Nutritional guidance and strategies that focus in on solutions that work for your life
  • A professional guide with certifications and training in the areas that matter most to you
  • Expert form checks so you feel confident in the way your body is moving
  • A collaborative relationship where we ask for your input before making decisions
  • Unwavering encouragement, support, and accountability
  • Video and text messages within the app or SMS
  • One business day response time to all questions, and a minimum of 2-3 check ins per week to assess how things are going
  • Goofy gifs, memes, and videos that keep things fun
  • Backup and emergency plans for social or stressful situations
  • A completely judgment-free zone 
  • An enthusiastic Coach who actually cares about your long term success
And here’s what we expect from you:
  • An open mind that approaches the process of getting healthy as an experiment
  • Regular, honest communication, particularly when things are challenging
  • Patience, consistency, and trust in the process
  • A commitment that you’ll make your own health a priority, knowing we can adjust the dial for any situation

Common questions from future clients

 

First of all, that’s not a question but I’ll let it slide. Second of all, I hear you! After trying a lot of different things in the past without finding the success you’re after, it can be super tempting to relinquish control and rely on someone else to just give you the answers. 

We will build a clear, structured plan for you to follow, and we want you to be involved in some of the decisions that are made. After all, YOU are the expert about your life and what’s realistic to commit to. After collaborating and getting your input, we’ll take the baton and turn those ideas into a plan.

Remember when we talked about other people’s idea of “perfect”? Meal plans fall into the category of “sounds great in theory...not so much in practice.” Instead of giving you strict orders to eat specific foods at specific times, we’ll work together to build a habit-based nutritional strategy that works for you in any situation and focuses on foods you enjoy eating.

In practice that looks something like this: 

Instead of instructing you to eat a specific meal at a specific time, we might focus on getting one serving of protein twice a day, one serving of veggies at each meal, or even putting your fork down between bites for one meal (don’t underestimate the power of this one!). Then we help you put that in practice using your favorite foods and troubleshoot any challenges along the way. Once that becomes a habit, we level up!

Through this habit-based leveling structure, we’ll help build your confidence in the kitchen to take the guesswork out of the what/when/why/how of staying nourished. Ultimately, our goal is to give you daily action steps to practice that will build skills within the realm of nutrition you can utilize for the rest of your life.

Hey, no problem! Above all, we are completely diet agnostic and want to find the nutritional strategy that will work for you. We can apply our principles of nutrition skill and habit development to absolutely any kind of diet.

That said, we have a team of over two dozen Coaches, each with different nutritional expertises and backgrounds. No matter your nutritional preferences - vegan, vegetarian, keto, intermittent fasting, paleo, celiac, or any type of hormone-related nutritional considerations - we have a Coach who can help!

Your Coach will stay in close contact with you throughout the week to answer questions, offer guidance, and hold you accountable. 

You can send your Coach video or text messages through the app any time - day or night. Your Coach will send a response within 1 business day.

And whether you touch base with a message or not, we’ll still check in 2-3 times per week to review your progress and make any necessary adjustments!

Honestly? It depends. 

When you begin the program, you and your Coach will talk through any goal expectations you have and what it will take to achieve them. You’ll continue to have regular checkpoints to make any necessary adjustments and have candid conversations about any changes in pace to consider.

With consistent work, we hope you start feeling a shift in your mindset and approach to getting healthy within 4-6 weeks. Overall, you’ll get out what you put in, but you should approach this journey as a long-term commitment. Our most successful clients typically stay with us a minimum of 6 months, and many have been in our program for more than 2 or 3 years!

Absolutely not! If you join NF Coaching as a monthly client, you can end your membership at any time. Even without contracts, our average client stays in the program between 10-12 months.

In most cases, yes. Nearly every Coach on our team has experience helping clients work through basic injuries, and several of them have deeper experience in rehab and PT.

However, if we feel you’re better served by seeing a doctor in person, we won’t hesitate to suggest it. And in every case, we’ll abide by your doctor’s recommendations when applicable.

Investing in NF Coaching is a serious commitment, and we don’t take that lightly

 

In-person trainers can cost anywhere between $60-$150+ per hour – based on a wide variety of experience levels, gym overhead, and location.

Training with them just twice per week in a gym means you’re shelling out at least $500/month, with experienced coaches coming in at over $1,000 per month (or $10,000+ for the year!).

Plus, many of these gym training sessions don’t address your nutrition or your mindset challenges related to long-term change.

When you join NF Coaching, you’ll have no contract to sign.

You’re free to continue the service at a monthly rate of $197 for as long as you are hitting your goals and finding value in the accountability and structure your Coach provides.

We also have discounted opportunities for those ready to commit to their long-term health and want to pre-pay for 6 or 12 months up front.

But is it worth it?

After learning more about who we are and how we can help, that’s a question you’ll need to consider for your own situation.

But if you’re looking for some insights from successful clients who have been exactly where you are, maybe this will help…
