What You Appreciate… Appreciates
Think about a time when someone showed appreciation for you. Maybe your boss thanked you in front of the whole team, and even described how your extra effort made a big difference for the company. How did you feel? It felt amazing, didn’t it? And it spurred you to grow even more. You probably felt encouraged to do a good job again the next time, right? That’s a great example of a powerful principle we can apply in all aspects of our lives, including our exercise and nutrition

It's National Foam Rolling Day!
Today we recognize a therapy that helps reduce stress, relieve muscle aches and pain, increases range of motion, improves flexibility, and more! We only go to the dentist 1-2 times a year, but brush our teeth every day. While we can’t get a massage every day, foam rolling offers the next best thing! Brush your muscles daily with a foam roller 😆 A common technical term for foam rolling is Self-Myofascial Release (SMR), and Coach Heather Binns have been a proponent of this the

Today is International Firefighter's Day!
Hi there! This is Coach Heather Binns. Today we honor the firefighters who put their lives at risk for our safety and well-being every single day. Not everyone knows this, but one of my dreams that I had since my 20's was to become a firefighter. I took Fire Science classes at Santa Ana College years ago (I was the only girl in my classes) and at the end of the program, I ran up and down the tower in my gear with a dead fire hose (no water running through it) and passed the p

Are You a Risk-Taker?
We believe that risk is invaluable, and an inevitable part of life. The past year has taught us that! While risk can be terrifying, it can also generate huge rewards. If it weren't for taking big, scary risks, Renov8 Fitness would not exist, nor would we be pushed outside our comfort zone daily to become the happiest, healthiest version of ourselves. Recently Coach Heather Binns was honored to be interviewed by Shoutout SoCal as a leader in the health and business community.

How Good Is Your Excuse?
Let’s play a game called “What’s Your Excuse?” Before you answer, let’s review the most common “reasons” people cite for not exercising and eating right. Do any of these ring a bell? “I don’t have time.” “It’s too expensive.” “I’ll go to the gym once I get in better shape.” “I don’t have anyone to exercise with.” We hear these “reasons” all the time. But the truth is, they’re all just excuses. All of them. And there’s no excuse that’s valid when it prevents you from prioritiz

It’s Coming!
Are you ready for the Summer? That’s a loaded question this year, isn’t it? But despite the uncertainty all around us still, let’s remember that Summer is almost here. What does that mean for your healthy lifestyle? Well, it usually means looking better with fewer clothes on, as we spend more time outdoors, right? And that’s great, of course. But this year, let’s add a touch of grace to our desire to lose a few pounds, grow muscle, or tighten and tone. We’ve all been through

“Let Me Think About It”
There’s a phrase we all tend to use when we want to politely get out of certain situations – usually right after someone has asked us to make a commitment. And that phrase is, “Let me think about it.” We’ve used it. You’ve used it. Everyone has. Take out a car loan? Let me think about it. Buying a house? Let me think about it. Accept a job offer in a different town? Let me think about it. But here’s something you don’t need to think about at all, ever: Taking action to im

The Only Reason You Haven’t Achieved Fitness Success
Let me tell you about someone I know. She’s in her 40s, divorced, and raising two kids. She’s busy, but comfortable, and enjoys a nice life. But every few months, she tells me how she wants to start working out and lose weight. Of course, I always encourage her. And then she says, “But I can’t. You know…the kids have so much going on right now…And my busy season is coming up at work…Maybe later, I guess.” The next time this happens, I’m going to gently point out that she is

February Doesn’t Mean Failure
February is the second month, but it might be first in feelings of self-disappointment. How many times have you felt by this point in a new year that it was all going to be a failure – that, since you already had dropped a resolution or even forgot to make one, that you were doomed to have another year of unmet healthy living aspirations? Well, we’re here to keep you from going down that rabbit hole again. You can still have your fittest year yet. You just have to get your mi

5 Tips for Navigating Your Cravings
It’s no secret that the New Year brings on new inspiration and desire for health. I don’t need to say it again, but I will remind you that less than 10% will still be pursuing their resolution within just a few months. I believe that one of the reasons people fall off the wagon is because of the all or none mindset. Thinking it has to be all health or nothing at all is a guarantee for failure. One of the top reasons people struggle with sticking to healthy habits is because o

A Holiday Message From My Heart
I hope you settled in for some downtime with family and friends. This is one of my favorite times of the year because I’m constantly reminded of how much I have to be grateful for: People I love, my home, my health, my business and obviously - you :) Renov8 Fitness may be a small part of your day or week, but it’s my life 24/7. You may not even currently be training with us. But I want you to know I spend most days and nights thinking about how we can serve you, get you bette
