Welcome and thank you so much for reading the FitFeat blog!

Fitting fitness and healthy nutrition into an already busy life can be quite a feat (hence the blog title) but it’s well worth the investment of your time.  Hopefully some of the tidbits you get from my blog will help.

I became a personal trainer in 2001, after my own struggle with weight gain (and loss and gain and loss  – you know the drill.)  My fitness philosophy has evolved immensely through the years as I continue to learn, apply and grow.  If there is a fitness and nutrition book out there, chances are it’s sitting on my bookshelf right now!  After years of trying a multitude of diets with my own body as a sort of science experiment (with and without successes), I have settled into an intuitive, natural eating pattern and fitness routine where maintaining my weight is pretty simple.  And trust me, I like food.  I especially like tasty treats.  You will see through the course of this blog how I eat and exercise to stay fit and healthy.

I love to run, hike and lift weights.  Mostly things where my feet stay firmly planted on the ground!  I’m a five-time half-marathoner, a former NPC Figure Competitor, a one-time triathlete, and more.  I’ve listed the events in which I have participated over the years at the bottom of this page.  You’ll notice that after 2007 there are NO events!  That’s because I decided to exercise for enjoyment and pure FUN, rather than because I was “in training” for something.

I am an ACE Certified Personal Trainer with a true passion for helping people implement real and healthful change into their lives.

Thanks again for reading and don’t be a stranger!  Read and comment often – I look forward to hearing from you!

– Shari B.  =)
