THE BELLA MINDSET
Your Body, the Way You Want It
Hi, I'm Brenda! I'm an ACE certified Personal Trainer and Precision Nutrition L1 Coach with over 12 years of experience in a health industry that has gotten away from my passion: Truly changing lives.
I will EMPOWER you to create a LIFESTYLE change and not a quick fix. I'm a mom, wife, and coach who will help you navigate your wellness and weight loss journey through ACCOUNTABILITY and a personalized approach that WORKS!
​
Not seeing the results you want despite hours in the gym?
Tired of diet fads that stop you from doing what you enjoy?
​​
You name it, I have been there, done it, bought the t-shirt. From putting in 3+ hours in the gym with marathon cardio sessions for a bikini fitness competition (no thanks), trying EVERY fad-diet (20-something day fixes, shakes, no carb, extra fat, low cal), lost weight, gained more weight back, measured food like a scientist, cried from obsessing over the scale...I could go on - can you relate?
​
After years of knowing what doesn't work, I now know what does. YOU are not a cookie-cutter client. No more yo-yo dieting or fads: TOGETHER we will work through the BEHAVIORS that will help you SEE and FEEL results.
​
If you are FINALLY ready to get life long results that last, let's touch base and see how I can help!

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
Real Experiences, Stunning Results
I have spent the last 10 years just going to the gym and going through the motions. I wasn’t seeing any results even though I was going in for over 2 hours. After sharing my goals with Brenda, she prescribed me a gym workout that had me seeing results in just a week! My only regret is that I didn’t do this sooner.

STRESS MAY BE IMPACTING YOUR WEIGHT
April was National Stress Awareness month (ya think?). All of us are under more stress than ever, and with that stress comes increases in Cortisol levels as well (our body's main stress hormone). Unfortunately those increased levels of stress often lead to overeating (and of course, your body won't be craving veggies and the other healthy stuff).
​
It is important to learn ways to manage your stress, as opposed to trying to completely get rid of it. Check out this article from ACE on ways you can manage stress and the positive effects it will have your immune system, digestion, and your waistline!
WHY AM I NOT LOSING WEIGHT?
THE PLATEAU PROBLEM
Ok, this is a question I get almost daily from clients. My answer usually goes like this: "Do you want the real answer, or do you want me to tell you what you want to hear?" In all honesty, you are probably doing a lot of things right, but here are a few common areas that could need addressing:
​
You are TOO obsessed with food and exercise (yes, it's a thing).
You don't get enough sleep and your hormones are pissed at you!
You are eating too little or not enough variety. Or, you are not being honest about what you ARE eating (it's ok, we all do it - often it is just that we are not conscious about our decisions).
You are exercising too much (Adding more and more cardio isn’t necessarily better—you eventually reach a point of diminishing returns).
You aren't lifting enough WEIGHT - weight training will boost your metabolism faster than marathon cardio sessions!

If you need help getting through your plateau, reach out! I would love to help you reach your goals.
