She didn’t package the good stuff with the bad stuff so she could watch us struggle for thousands of years until the invention of Egg Beaters.” Liz Wolfe, NTP Our world was created for us to thrive. Just like you, we care a lot about what goes into our bodies. We’ve all heard the saying “You are what you eat.” The food we eat directly affects how we feel, both physically and mentally.  We enjoy doing research and getting educated constantly so we can make sure we are using the best ingredients. Which is why we use organic produce, organic grass fed beef and organic...Read more

By: Alvie Hafen You walk into the gym and go straight to the board to look at the workout. You see some heavier weights in the workout. The person next to you is loading up the RX weight on their bar. Should you? Or should you scale the weight back? These are questions which go through the minds of clients all the time. Here are my thoughts as a Coach and an Athlete who has been doing Welded for almost 7 years. 1. Faster is better. Scale the weight down.

From elite athletes to the everyday athlete the answer to that question is usually pretty universal, little to none. Whether it is a time restriction or just a lack of understanding, too many athletes wreck havoc on their bodies by not focusing...Read more
