Why are gyms and fitness classes packed with new gym-goers in the beginning of January but then back to normal crowds come mid-February? I don’t think the problem is that we’re bad at trying to be healthier, but that we are inherently bad at setting ourselves up with New Year’s resolutions we can actually keep. Today we’re talking about 3 things you can do set goals you can actually keep in 2022.
Read MoreOur team has grown since our last Gift Guide, but we love sharing some of our favorite products - nutrition, cooking, fitness, and health related - and are doing so early this year knowing that the holidays are sneaking up quickly. This week we’re each sharing a favorite health or fitness gift that we hope you find useful as you start holiday shopping (or start your own list of what you may want this holiday season!)
Read MoreToday’s post talks about the power of setting minimums - how they can be an effective tool for progress, and the recurring theme that progress is about flexibility, not about an “all or nothing” approach.
Read MoreI believe it can be really helpful to understand what our body’s physiological response to stress looks like and how it relates to food (including digging into why stress eating can feel so good). From there, we can get into a few practical exercises to help manage our physiological response to stress to help interrupt the physical urge to stress eat.
Read MoreI had an overwhelming response to my call for your nutrition questions, so here are some of those great questions answered in part 2 of this Q&A series. Nutrition can be confusing and overwhelming, and I hope some of these responses help clear up some questions you’ve been wondering about as well!

Read MoreWe’ve loved sharing a glimpse of what nutrition for our coaches looks like in the past. As our KLN team has expanded, we wanted to again share the diversity (and similarities) in our approach as we all juggle busy schedules, responsibilities, personal goals, and our love of good food.
Read MoreThis fixation with the scale is a pattern we see with clients often. It’s natural, but it’s also preventable. Rather than just suggesting that you don’t let the number on the scale bother you, today’s post dives a little deeper into how you can make the most of this (often inaccurate) measure of progress and other ways to determine the true changes you are experiencing on your fat loss journey.
Read MoreToday’s post is the second in a two-part series all about tracking your macros. If you missed the first post, go back and read it here - we talked about what macros are and why you track them. In today’s post we’re going a little bit deeper into how you track your macros and how to know if hiring a coach is right for you.
Read MoreYou’ve probably heard the word “macros” or know someone who has “tracked” them when working towards a fat loss or performance goal. The idea of tracking macros is not new in the health and fitness industry, but if it’s new to you, it may seem confusing. We use the term Flexible Nutrition to describe the process of tracking macros, which is the approach we use with our clients who are working towards fat loss, performance, and overall health goals.
Read MoreJust as there is no one size fits all approach when it comes to nutrition, there’s also no one size fits all approach to meal prep. Everyone has different macro targets and every individual can choose how much time is spent in the kitchen in order to hit these targets. However you choose to prep your food should suit your lifestyle and be sustainable for long-term success.
To give you a bit more insight into what meal prep while tracking your macros can look like, we are showing you what a week of meal prep looks like for each of us. While we all follow the same concept of flexible nutrition, our approaches are very different and are dependent on our personal lifestyles.
Read MoreWe talk about goals a lot with our clients, so we wanted to kick off the year sharing some of our big, broad goals for this coming year. Read more about what we’re working on this year to improve our fitness, nutrition, and mental health.

Read MoreWith Thanksgiving behind us, the holidays are definitely in full swing. It feels like just about every other post I see from anyone in the health or fitness industry is about how not to overeat at holiday meals or parties. I do think there’s a lot of value in being strategic or even just extra mindful about your food intake through the season - but if your household is anything like mine, you probably need to be aware of what’s missing from your fridge and not just how to handle the extra cookies that are making their way into your kitchen.
Read MoreThe process. At some point, your coach has probably told you to “trust the process,” but what does that mean? And why trust “the process” when you’re frustrated that you’ve had a tough week or aren’t seeing the progress you’re looking for?
