Welcome to our blog, The Bench Press.  Get it?!  We know, puns ARE awesome!  Almost as awesome as late night Stephen King movie marathons or, better yet, the made-for-TV movie Ghost Shark.  (If you haven't seen it, contact us & we'll set up a movie night. Let's just say it will change your life!)

This blog is dedicated to training holistically, eating happily & living vibrantly.  As holistic personal trainers & yoga teachers, we are passionate about sharing how we eat, workout, & get our zen on.  We have learned quite a few fun, effective tips from our years as trainers with a variety of wonderful clients & want to share all that we've learned & continue to learn with you.  Our philosophy is simple: we believe in gastric delights that come from whole foods rather than processed packages (except for gummi bears, Ryan LOVES gummi bears), yoga that is about much more than flexibility & smart training that starts with safe alignment & ends with great results.  If you love weighlifting, endurance sports, yoga & meditation, or healthy eating, welcome home!  If you're not so sure yet, hop right in & have fun reading around!  We're glad you're here either way!
