If you think starting a fitness regimen is hard, try keeping one going.  Life happens, routines get disrupted and fortunately, Milestone has been there to help me reset, restart and keep my fitness momentum going.

2019 is here and one word typically associated with the New Year is resolution. Resolution by
definition is “a firm decision to do or not to do something; the action of solving a problem, dispute,
or contentious matter.” Resolution comes off to me as something that is started but not usually
stuck with. With the turn of a new year, I like to set new goals not resolutions. Habits, not quick
fixes.

June is here and we are excited to celebrate Men’s Health Month. We all know that men are not the first to suggest a doctor’s visit. From flu-like symptoms to a bad back, it seems they always push through no matter what their bodies are dealing with. We applaud them for being so tough, but ultimately, we want them to stay as healthy as possible. As time goes on, it may be important to make sure they pay a visit to their doctor. Here are four simple things that they can do each day to improve their health. 

One of Milestone's greatest strengths is its personal training program.  It is comprised of 58 personal trainers who all hold bachelor of science degrees and nationally accredited certifications for personal training.  All of these trainers work with the general population, helping people become stronger, more toned, increasing cardiovascular health, weight management, improving mobility, and much more.  Some of these trainers carry additional specialties.  Andrew Crowe is one who specializes in sports conditioning and boxing.  He invites YOU to join him at one of his upcoming demos!
