LEANFIT FOR THE WIN!!! From Hip Replacement to Peak Performance

Increasing my daily PROTEIN intake was a game changer for me on my fitness journey– that is when all my hard work in the gym started to pay off, and strangers started commenting on my physique, and asking what I was doing. Training, of course, is a big part of your physique results, but truly, it is your NUTRITION that is the main driver for results, and a big part of that is your PROTEIN intake! LEANFIT protein powders were INTEGRAL to this process, they are a NON NEGOTIABLE in my daily food intake.

Fast forward a few years… I was in need of a hip replacement. I was devastated. After getting over the initial shock, I decided that I would face this bravely head on, researching optimal RECOVERY STRATEGIES from this procedure, as I did not want my muscles to atrophy post surgery. There are a few key elements I chose to focus on to promote optimal recovery:

1. ADEQUATE PROTEIN INTAKE: 1 gram per pound of bodyweight daily. In addition to using whole foods, LEANFIT PROTEIN POWDER was a non negotiable in my daily routine, via a green smoothie for breakfast and/or a chocolate protein shake for a snack. PROTEIN POWDER is one of the easiest & most convenient ways to ensure you are hitting your daily protein goals.
2. GREENS SUPPLEMENT: Of course, it is important to give your body all of the vitamins and minerals needed for optimal health and enzymatic reactions. Again, in addition to focusing on a variety of colours daily with my fruits and veggies, LEANFIT GREENS was an additional “insurance policy” to flood my body with a variety of nutrients it could use to rebuild and repair.
3. COLLAGEN: I have taken LEANFIT COLLAGEN for years for the benefits to the hair, skin and nails, but now the stakes were much higher… my body needed all the help it could get to promote STRONG CONNECTIVE TISSUES as I recovered.
4. CREATINE: I was unable to work out for several weeks post surgery, as all of my body’s energy was needed in the recovery process. I began to supplement with LEANFIT’s CREATINE to GAIN BACK my muscle post surgery. I noticed a difference right away– I immediately felt STRONGER once I was able to work out again, which in turn allowed me to start LIFTING HEAVIER once again.

I am proud to say that I feel STRONGER THAN I EVER HAVE. I am fully back to my lifting routine, teaching 8 group fitness classes per week, personal training in addition to this, and, as a Registered Holistic Nutritionist,  counselling others for optimal health, wellness & maximum energy. LEANFIT products are ALWAYS a part of these plans!

In addition to the above supplements, I also take the LEANFIT IMMUNITY STACK daily (Vitamin C, Zinc, & Vitamin D3), Spirulina & Chlorella,and  electrolytes. I have to say, for a 53 year old woman with a huge daily physical output, my ENERGY is AMAZING (I still feel the energy I did in my 20’s)!

LEANFIT is an affordable, Canadian, organic, high quality company, with a diverse range of products to help people achieve their goals! Over the years, I have had a handful of clients who “don’t like the taste” of protein powders, and without fail, once I refer them to LEANFIT, they find this is one that they truly enjoy! THANK YOU, LEANFIT, FOR HELPING ME & MY CLIENTS LIVE OUR BEST LIVES!!!
