FITNESS PHILOSOPHY
I’ve been at this fitness thing for a while now, and while I have my preferences with training, and nutrition, please understand there is no one-size-fits-all approach.
Just because one method works for someone, doesn’t mean it will work equally as well for you. We at Tri-Valley help come up with a plan that will work for your specific needs.
Remember, it’s going to take a lot of work, but nothing worth having ever comes easy. This is a journey worth traveling.

TRAINING
There are many ways to get lean, add mass, or improve your athletic performance. How you go about it should primarily be a result of your goals, temperament, training experience and individual abilities.
If you want to be a powerlifter, and compete, train like one. The same goes for Olympic lifting.
Want to be a bodybuilder? Good, spend your time training like one, and not like one of the previous athletes I mentioned.
Remember, this is about you, so you should always train in a manner that suits your personal goals.

NUTRITION
Nutrition can be hard to understand. I get it. There’s a lot of confusion surrounding certain diets and what is optimal.
I believe wholeheartedly in a diet that is primarily a variety of whole foods with the treats you enjoy built into your schedule.
A diet should serve and fuel you, not make your life complicated. Your diet shouldn’t stress you out, cause fear, anxiety or worry.
