Nicole, Marcus and Brenton share their experiences with college and professional athletics and reflect on the lessons they learned by living in a competitive environment, how it affects their drive in other facets of life, and most importantly, what it takes to have and develop the mentality and confidence to face adversity, overcome hardships and failures, and how to celebrate little wins that add up into big wins.

Ryann and Diana sit down to talk about what inspired them about being BIN clients enough to work to become BIN coaches. Krissy has always been clear about her preference to hire people who have learned BIN's philosophy and software and experienced firsthand success as clients then completing a rigorous internship under the guidance of our coaches. If you have any questions about the process or are interested, get in touch with us!

Reunited at last! Ryann, Acacia and Q are now scattered across the country but came together to chat with the boys about pandemic life and what they've been doing since it turned life upside down. They talk about having meets cancelled, what to do about it, and how to come back to them now that they're starting up again.

Zach Anderson (@motionsustained) sits down to talk about what was originally going to be a conversation around building nutrition strategies for working professionals. What it evolved into was mostly talking about his story (he's literally an attorney!) and a broader conversation about the small changes that add up to big changes and the wisdom of taking the long view with nutrition, or as he calls it "Big Picture Energy". Enjoy!

Megan, Ashley and Nicole talk about their experience of losing their periods as a result of over exercising, under fueling, and putting too much stress on their bodies. They go through what causes hypothalamic amenorrhea (the loss of menstrual cycle), why your period is so important and how to go about correcting it.

Ryan and Brenton sit down with BIN's newest coach Marcus Watts on his journey from professional basketball to Crossfit and going from eating whatever through the health scares that initiated the process of editing his diet down to veganism. He talks about the best approaches to transition to veganism and how to change your diet generally by experimenting with yourself and listening to the feedback your body gives.

Coaches Nicole, Jess, and Emily talk about nutrition during and after pregnancy. There are particular vitamins and minerals to take into consideration, how to deal with no appetite and bizarre food cravings, going easy on yourself, loving yourself as your body transforms, and how pregnancy is both the most challenging and most rewarding thing a woman will go through, and how pregnancy changes your priorities and sense of perseverance.

We are back! We all know what's going on. So we invited coach Nicole to talk with us about our varied experiences with quarantine. We talk about grocery strategies, skills transfer and how not being able to go to the gym and practice your sport isn't the end of the world.

Emily and Marisa talk about severe periods, what causes them and what to do about them. They also give a few diet and supplement recommendations that might help alleviate some of the severity.

There are two ways.
