Why Choose Ashley:
My strengths as a coach include, making sure clients know that they matter, and that their goals and well-being are important to me; providing encouragement and accountability; laying out realistic goals and diet phases, overcoming stumbling bocks along the way; teaching exercise technique; teaching scientific principles of nutrition and strength training, and making sure my clients are following these guidelines for their best outcome.
One of the best tips I can give someone who is considering doing a scientific diet for fat loss or muscle gain is to have a distinct beginning and end date, so that you don’t talk yourself into putting things off until “tomorrow”.
I also want to emphasize the importance of removing as much emotion from the scale as possible. The most successful dieters never get too high from a "good" weigh-in or too low from a "bad" weigh-in.
When it comes to diet and nutrition, you can piece together your own protocol from YouTube videos, magazine articles, podcasts, and perhaps even books and research papers, but a one-on-one coach with a graduate degree in this area will allow you to reach your goals sooner with less time wasted through trial and error.
I am turning 40 in a couple of months and I am so thankful that I have found RP. I am happier and healthier then I have ever been.

I have learned that eating more doesn’t mean weight gain but strength and fat loss is a slow but successful process.
