6-Week Nutrition Course - In Person & Online
Jan

12:00 PM12:00

6-Week Nutrition Course - In Person & Online

Understand YOUR behavior and metabolism to create joyful and rewarding eating habits that yield consistent results.

Our 6-Week nutrition course is for people who want to learn how to adapt their eating habits for their lifestyle, activities, and energy needs, and who have struggled with traditional weight-loss or dieting methods like macro-counting, keto, paleo, Weight Watchers, and others.

Many of these methods can be too restrictive, too time-consuming, and result in a bad relationship with food. It should not be that hard to know what to eat, when, and why.

It’s time to start treating your body the way it deserves; a subject not an object. This course will teach you the fundamentals of food and behavior, so you can understand how to adapt your eating to your daily and seasonal needs not only for weight loss goals, but also to improve your energy, productivity, mood, and self-image. Food is fuel, not the enemy!

Get on track for long term success by signing up for this course.

Can’t make every class? No worries! This class will be streamed on Google Meet and participants will have access to the recordings. Google Meet participants can also ask questions live and be included in group discussions!

NOVEMBER 25TH THROUGH DECEMBER 31ST, THE FIRST 10 PEOPLE TO REGISTER GET 35% OFF!! Save over $200!

Space is limited!

Includes:

  • 2 hour class sessions every Saturday from January 14th through February 18th

  • Access to the Google Meet live stream & class recordings

  • Manageable “homework” each week to build sustainable habits through exploration and self-awareness

  • Group discussions to learn from real-world examples and have your questions answered

  • Optional discount on our Empower strength and conditioning membership.

Class Dates: (In person & online!)

Classes are Saturdays from 12pm-2pm

January 14th: Metabolism: Efficiency and Stress Management

January 21st: Behavior: Responses to the Nervous System & Lactate

January 28th: Understanding Your Relationship with Food

February 4th: Understanding Rewards & Guilt

6 YEAR ANNIVERSARY PARTY

WE MADE IT!

We are especially grateful to celebrate our 6th year in business. For those of you that don’t know, our home was in the path of the December 11th tornado that devastated Bowling Green last year. Such a close call obviously makes each day sweeter. The gym was untouched and remained a safe haven for us all in the aftermath of what continues to be a crazy period for all of us. Because of our wonderful members, community partners, and friends, we recovered well and were able to continue moving forward. Year 6 has been an adventure and we are excited for year 7!

GET YOUR FIRST MONTH FOR $6!

To celebrate this year, we are inviting everyone to come experience BG Powerhouse for our anniversary! Please come out to meet our coaches and partners while challenging yourself to our 6 physical contests showcasing all aspects of training at BG Powerhouse! After you test your fitness, grab food from a food truck and play games with fellow attendees! To top it off, we are offering new members their first month for just $6 when they sign up at our event! No matter what program you choose!

No registration necessary! Bring a friend between 11am and 3pm and enjoy the BG Powerhouse experience!

Reflexive Performance Reset (RPR) Clinic - Levels 1, 2, & 3

Reflexive Performance Reset (RPR) Clinic - Levels 1, 2, & 3

  • BOWLING GREEN POWERHOUSE (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

We are so excited to be hosting Chris Korfist at BG Powerhouse this June for all 3 Reflexive Performance Reset courses currently available! We have been using RPR here at BG Powerhouse since Coach Burba completed the Level 1 and Level 2 clinics in November of 2019. Since then, we have used RPR principles in every service we provide, including youth sports, Olympic weightlifting, Powerlifting, Strongman, and Massage Therapy. RPR is like flipping the light switch on in the body; priming the nervous system to communicate with our muscles so that every movement we do is more effective and useful.

We have seen incredible results incorporating RPR techniques to reduce pain, enhance muscle function, improve movement patterns, and even prevent injury. If you are interested in learning RPR for yourself OR learning how to implement it for your clients, members, and athletes, this opportunity is for you!

This is a two-day clinic, with Levels 1 & 2 on Saturday and Level 3 on Sunday! Sign up for 1 & 2 or all 3!
