TEAM STRONG GIRLS Biweekly Progress

I am beyond proud of Jennine J’s amazing ‪#‎progress‬. She came to me a few short months ago looking to for strategies to eat better and feel ‪#‎healthy‬ as she suffered from headaches and migraines for years. Jennine is also on medication to combat early stages of Cervical Cancer so we had to be very strategic with her programming. After a few weeks of assessing her range of motion, biomechanics, and strength progress, we had identified a lot of tightness in her trapezius muscles that was the root of her headaches as a simple movement with a very light bicep curl would bring this on. I suggested to bring my findings to her Chiropractor and we put together a strategy to break apart the scar tissue that was built up in this area and, the great news is, she has now slowly resumed exercise for the purpose of Stabilization and Strength Endurance with simple band work and increased range of motion. Jennine says, “Hi Jenny!!! I’m very excited that finally at some point I might …

TEAM STRONG GIRLS Success Story – Joanne J.

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting Joanne J. (age 48, mother of 2) for the first time and I am so, so, so proud to share her journey with us. She came to us a few months ago looking to lean out and under the tutelage of Coach Kim G. who put together a strategy of consistent exercise along with eating more quality foods measured for her and her goals, this STRONG GIRL is down 21 lbs and has also lost over 23 inches. As far as the scale goes, she is the lightest she’s ever been and feels fantastic! Joanne also borrows her teenage daughter’s clothes! LOL! Love it!

Looking at pictures of myself when we got home, I felt terrible because I felt like I looked like a ” square box”, with no shape whatsoever. I had been following JVB Fitness and Nutrition on Facebook because of STRONG GIRLS Tanya B and Kelly …

PINK MONTH for TEAM STRONG GIRLS

I refer to October as PINK MONTH in which I will be campaigning TEAM STRONG GIRLS to join the fight against, not only Breast Cancer, but all cancers. We’ve all been affected in some way by this dreaded disease and I’m confident, with everyone’s support, we will find a cure! I will be supporting this cause on a regular basis personally and through my business. The heart and soul of my team, Jackie J., is one of my biggest inspirations. She is also an AIDS researcher, a humanitarian, a health/fitness enthusiast, and also a Cancer Survivor. This photo was taken last year when I flew down to San Francisco to meet her after her incredible 20 lbs weight loss journey to better health. Since her Success Story was posted, I’ve lost count as to how many messages of hope that I received from so many people because of her journey and am excited to share a few of these stories as quickly as this week! I cannot thoroughly express in words how much this visit …
