One of our major goals, when we opened Wilcox Wellness & Fitness, was to provide a place for trainers to be able to grow and develop careers that they felt really good about. Where they could do the job that they love, make a really incredible impact, and also have a life. With our Innovate for Maine Fellow, we made this recruitment video to explain how being a trainer at Wilcox Wellness & Fitness is different. And it gives me the chills. Hearing Katie explain in her words what she loves about her job is exactly the vision that Mike and I had from the very start. It took us a while to get here but I am so excited to be on this path with these people in these communities making this impact. We are so thankful for our community, for our team, and for the ability to positively impact so many lives. Thank you for your support, for your encouragement, and for believing in us.

“The Switch Witch” for a healthier Halloween Halloween with is kids can mean candy overload! In fact, according to data from 2013, the average child will eat about 3 cups of sugar on Halloween… That’s equal to 220 sugar packets! That’s over 16 times the recommended amount of sugar. GASP! OMG - our kids are going to be swinging from the rafters for weeks! Last year I learned about the ‘Switch Witch’ and it was a hit - our 5 year old, Hazen is already talking about the Switch Witch again for this year. Meet the Switch Witch. She even has her own poem.  As the poem suggests, the night after trick-or-treating, have your kids set their candy by the door and after they go to bed, you swap it out for a toy they want (Hazen knows EXACTLY what he wants), tickets to a movie or concert, or basically any non-candy item they’d like!
This means they get double the fun of Halloween – not only trick-or-treating, but also a surprise gift when they wake up the next morning. Then you can donate the Halloween candy to a local food pantry, homeless shelter, or the organization Soldier’s Angels (learn more here: Treats for Troops) and get a tax-refundable donation receipt. I hope this helps your family have a healthy (and happy!) Halloween. ENJOY! Paige REFERENCE: www.insider.com/how-much-sugar-the-average-kid-consumes-on-halloween-2017-1 WANT MORE OF THIS?

So many of our clients absolutely LOVE pizza and I have been on the hunt for a recipe that is healthy and delicious. This is a true winner in my book! For a long time, I have been experimenting with cauliflower crust, and while I do have a few cauliflower recipes that I love, they are incredibly time consuming. This recipe is super simple and you can see me whip it together super fast in the video below. AND - it has just a couple simple ingredients that you could have on hand at all times, so the next time you get that crazy craving - you are able to whip up something healthy vs calling the pizza delivery man. Super simple, right? And just a few ingredients: quinoa, an egg, salt, pepper, baking powder, and oregano. HEAVEN! Quiona is referred to as the 'mother of all grains' and for good reason - it has high in protein and is one of the very few plant foods that contain sufficient amounts of all nine essential amino acids. It is also high in fiber, magnesium, B vitamins, iron, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, vitamin E and various beneficial antioxidants. Read more here! Here is the recipe from Run Fast Eat Slow:  I hope you love it! Please let me know if you are going to give it a try for your next pizza night!

We can't wait to connect with you and support you along your journey with healthy living! Sometimes I wish life would just be simple, care-free and wrapped up neatly with a bow. But, I have learned that some of the biggest struggles in my life has given me the strength to conquer the next big thing or have compassion for someone else. So, I have taught myself to shift my mindset around whatever challenge that I am facing. The challenge is there ‘for me’ to help me get better - it is not ‘happening to me.’ I think the same thing is true for training in the gym - it’s not about what obstacles you overcome in the gym - it’s about how overcoming those obstacles helps you become stronger in all other aspects of your life. I don’t train for what I can do in the gym - I train to have the energy and strength to handle whatever life throws my way.  Are you with me? What obstacles have you faced in your life that have prepared you for something even more challenging? Craving more inspiration? Watch this video - it gets me every single time! Pretty powerful! I hope this served to inspire you and encourage you!

We can't wait to connect with you and support you along your journey with healthy living! You are going to love the recipes that we are sharing here! We created this guide for you so you can enjoy the most delicious, warm, cozy drinks without all of the unnecessary sugar, artificial flavors & sweeteners, preservatives, trans fats, and other not-so-good-for-you ingredients, all while leveling up your nutrition. The truth about coffeehouse drinks is that they seem like a treat when you’re ordering them… but when you dig into the nutrition facts, they actually can feel more like a trick. Some coffeehouse drinks are loaded with more than DOUBLE the amount of added sugar you are supposed to have in a single day! That’s why we created this recipe guide – so you can still feel like you’re treating yourself, but without overloading your system with too much sugar and other unhealthy ingredients that leave you feeling tired, bloated, and jittery.  Seriously: a grande (aka medium) Frappuccino from Starbucks can contain up to 69 grams of sugar! And a grande caramel macchiato contains more than 30 grams. When you consider the recommended limit for added sugar for women is 6 teaspoons (25 grams) and for men is 9 teaspoons (38 grams), that’s pretty wild, right? A sudden big influx of sugar can affect even the healthiest person’s blood sugar level, shooting it up quickly– which causes your body to release extra insulin to return it to normal. But afterward, you can end up with lower-than-optimal blood sugar, which can make you feel tired, hungry, and even a little cranky. This ebook contains the “basics” for custom-creating your own recipe swaps that are equally as delicious... from homemade cold brew coffee to pumpkin spice creamer to Mexican coffee and more. Then, it dives into different hot and cold coffee and tea drinks, along with some refreshing options. I know you’re going to love it!
