I want to explain to you why the calories listed on a label and the calories you burn during a workout are often very misleading. The calories within a meal are not the same as the calories your body utilizes or digests. Processed foods are already “pre-digested” or partially broken down. Lets say you eat 500 […]
So how often should you work out? It depends. Something that’s more important than how often you work out, is what kind of effort you give during a workout. So if you go in, and you push as hard as you can, and really get after it then there is a big difference, versus showing up for […]
I wanted to make a quick video to show you why you shouldn’t stretch first thing in the morning. Lets talk about your spine. Between every vertebrae, every bone in your back, you have a disc. This disc is mainly water. Here’s kind of a cool fact: When you wake up in the morning, you’re […]
Alright guys, I’d like to talk to you a little bit about workout timing today. So I was recently talking to one of our members, and he was talking about how he had a day of work, where he was outside and it was a physical day of work, and he just felt super sore […]
A question I commonly get is, “Do I need to do more cardio?” Let me be honest, cardio is probably my least favorite term in all of fitness. The term cardio is short for the term “kardia” which is a Greek word for the heart. So the cardiovascular system is your heart and all your blood […]
This is extremely important. Always Always Always think long term. For everything in life but especially your workouts. I’ve had a number of people ask me “can I work out twice a day? I have this friend at a different gym and they’re going twice a day two hours a day, yada yada yada…” That is […]
Ok, so how do you get stronger? This is one of my favorite things, I love working to get stronger. I’ve kind of backed off over the years, but when I was younger, I just wanted to get as strong as I possibly could. It was fun, but over the long-term my goals have changed. […]
“Dr. Czys, what do I need to do to see my ab muscles?” “I want to see my abs.” Hey , I want you to see your abs too, I think that’s a great goal to have. Here’s what you have to do: Number one: You’ve got to melt the snow to see the trail. […]
Alright everyone I’m going to answer a question that I often get, and that is “Should you work out if you’re sick?” And my answer is always going to be no and there’s a lot of reasons for this… So here’s the thing, when you get sick your immune system is what’s working to kill […]
There is an endless supply of different exercise programs, gyms, videos, etc that exist. Some are more effective than others but the truth is any exercise will get results if done consistently. It’s the consistency that is key. Most people want and fall victim to the quick, the fast, the overnight, the instant and the […]
It felt good to see that the work and diet were paying off
Since I joined Eupraxia I have completely changed my diet. I ate pretty crappy before, A LOT of junk food. I was taking Omeprazole to treat GERD. It was prescription strength, about twice the dosage of Prilosec OTC. Once I started Eupraxia I started dropping weight pretty fast. The change in diet had me feeling better. I stopped […]
You won’t find another gym that cares more and is willing to tell you the flat out truth
Love doesn’t even come close to the feelings I have about Eupraxia. In a nutshell I have to say that it is the most well thought-out, well researched, and evidence based fitness program that I have ever come across. When you apply what Dr. Steve Czys teaches about nutrition, and how to effectively workout, you […]
The only regret that I have is I wish I would have started sooner
The impact Eupraxia has had on my life is almost indescribable. They have sparked my love for fitness/physical activity that has led me to do things that I never imagined and to challenge myself in new ways everyday! I used to be very sedentary, but I’ve done 2 warrior runs now and couldn’t believe […]
