When Lauryn Burkhalter was faced with a breast cancer diagnosis, she had some decisions to make. She could react or she could respond with a plan of action.

And that plan involved looking at the things around her with new eyes.

But just like so many of us, Lauryn got overwhelmed with the amount of information out there. So she took a big step. She reached out to her sister and founder of Stacked Nutrition, Emily Schneller.

Today Lauryn sat down with Bradley and Emily to talk about her journey. Celebrating hitting 40 pounds of weight loss in 6 months, how she was able to accomplish this, how it has been working with her sister throughout this process, and more.

Losing weight is tough under the best circumstances, but it can be especially tricky when you’ve got “do this” and “do that” advice coming at you from all angles. Whether you’re digging through the internet or talking to friends, it can be tough to figure out what is fact and what is fiction, especially because weight loss is so dependent on individual needs and goals.

On today's episode Bradley, Emily, and Sarah have the most important things to help you lose fat. And it isn't cardio or staying away from carbs and fats. Tune in to find out if your pyramid matches ours.

Have you ever felt like your metabolism is just broken?

We've got something pretty important to say... Are you ready?

Just because something is good for someone, doesn't mean it's right for you.

We're big believers in functional fitness and we also know the massive benefit of training in a group setting with like-minded people, but we also know that each body is different and one workout doesn't work for everyone.

Today Bradley sat down with Doctor of Physical Therapy and Active Life Coach, Maysa Hannawi. Maysa realized that she could impact lives not through a clinic, but through the gym and has been helping people all over look, feel, and perform the way they want. Tune into to learn more about Maysa and what you should be doing to optimize your performance inside and outside of the gym.

Have you ever been working out, moving light weight, when suddenly you feel a tweak? Maybe you felt fine on your 52nd kettlebell swing, but on rep 53 your back tightens up and you can barely look at your shoes, much less drive home.

Turns out, that it probably wasn't the kettlebell swing that made your back so angry and avoiding that movement in the future won't fix you. Weaknesses develop over time.

And it turns out that you start loading your body from the moment you wake up, well before you even step foot into the gym.

On today's episode of "Probably the Best Fitness and Nutrition Podcast" Bradley, Emily, and Sarah talk about the concept of load vs. capacity. Learn how sleep, stress, diet, injury, and your anatomy play a role in your capacity before you even start your workout, why that matters, and how to improve your capacity while moving better.

🌟 MEMBER OF THE MONTH 🌟

Some of you know her as Ya-Ya, but we all know her as Charlotte Schneller.

In addition to being a Roux member and Stacked Coaching client, Charlotte is mom to our owner, Bradley Schneller. Even though Charlotte has been around Roux from the start, she was intimidated. She finally made the leap to try classes 3 years ago, but she just wasn't ready and was inconsistent.

Charlotte has had diabetes for many years, but after watching her sister get sick, Charlotte flipped the script. When Roux re-opened after quarantine, she made a commitment to herself to come to the gym 3 days a week and has stayed true to that for a year now.

In addition to that, she started working with Coach Claire and Stacked and has not only lost weight and become stronger, but she is off of one of her diabetes meds and has decreased her insulin. In fact, her doctor can barely keep up to adjust it because she is doing so well.

Charlotte is the perfect example of what is possible when you decide to say yes to yourself and we are thrilled that she is our June 2021 Member of the Month!
