“I’ve had such a great experience with Body Tempo. Erin and her team know how to get the best out of you. Last summer I joined before my wedding and surpassed my fitness goals in less than six weeks. The group workouts are so finely tuned, especially for women’s trouble areas and the PTs are attentive and personable. That’s why I’m back again this year. There’s real community here and the owner takes great pride in how she runs her business. The gym is pristine, prices are competitive and the nutrition plans are worth their weight in gold.” Debra, current client.

What comes to mind when you think of a healthy meal? Baked chicken, steamed broccoli with a side of plain brown rice, might come to mind but where’s the fun in that? A rule of thumb when it comes to a healthy meal is that your plate should be about ½ fruits and/or veggies, ¼ protein and ¼ starchy carbs like rice, pasta, or potato. Spice it up by playing with new cooking methods, seasonings, cultures such as Mexican, Italian, and Asian, and new foods and herbs. Your food can be fun, tasty and healthy. Get adventurous.
