Hitch Fit Living Magazine Volume 1 July/August 2015 | Page 3

Welcome to the first edition of Hitch Fit Living magazine! This publication is a blessing and an exciting step for us in our mission to make the world a more healthy, fit and happy place one person at a time. Micah and I thank God every day for the opportunity to do what we love and to serve Him through fitness! If you’re familiar with Hitch Fit, you know that our focus is transformation. Since 2009 when Micah and I founded Hitch Fit, we’ve been striving to help our clients, both online and in person, achieve their fitness goals through healthy eating and exercise. The goal is to help them develop a healthy sustainable lifestyle, so that they can enjoy the benefits of transformation for years to come. We know that sustaining something for life means you need consistent incentive, fresh ideas for healthy eating and workouts, and a regular boost of inspiration, so that is exactly what we intend to provide with Hitch Fit Living! We have an incredible team of over 20 TRANSFORMERS who are now part of the Hitch Fit personal training teams at our two locations in Kansas City, MO and Overland Park, KS. These are people DEDICATED to helping people transform, and they are also a wealth of information on healthy living! This magazine will serve as a resource for them to share their knowledge with you too. Our motto is Believe – Transform – Inspire. That is the goal of the content that you will see throughout this magazine. First you must BELIEVE in yourself and your ability to succeed. This is achieved by mental preparation. Being clear with your goals and dreams, being cognizant of the story you tell yourself about yourself, and intentionally developing new thought patterns that will keep you on a path to success. Next is to TRANSFORM, which involves exercise and eating right to improve health, enhance confidence, and yes of course the fun part, changing the way that your body visually looks. Transformation is about FAR more than the physical though. The discipline and determination that it takes to go through a physical transformation, develops strength in all other aspects of life for our clients. THAT is the exciting an amazing part to see, the internal transformation as people become more fit, healthy and strong emotionally, mentally, spiritually AND physically. Phase three of Hitch Fit is INSPIRE. When someone goes through transformation. They inspire the people around them to make healthier choices for themselves. This has happened with every single person. No matter your age, your body type, your goals, your obstacles, your gender or your fitness level…YOUR story is going to inspire someone else. We love it when clients Pay it Forward by sharing their stories. That is how the RIPPLE EFFECTS of healthy living continue to spread! Thank you for taking your time to check out Hitch Fit Living! We hope that you enjoy it, and welcome your comments, feedback and ideas for topics for future issues. God Bless! Diana Chaloux - LaCerte Photo by Brandi Wisdom BNW Photography [email protected]
