Total Nutrition Technology

I have been so busy lately that I feel I have neglected the blog, so I wanted to let you all in on what I have been up to. In March, I joined with Total Nutrition Technology as the company's first Private Chef as well as a Health Educator.

I am so excited because this is my first opportunity to bridge my two passions for food and fitness! TNT's mission statement is to optimize your health by creating a realistic, affordable, and customized nutrition program that aids you in weight loss, health maintenace and/or sports performance! The greatest part is that TNT's nutrition programs create for you a healthy lifestyle change not simply a diet! Also, as you continue you will find that these programs are so awesome, but maybe you live far away, not to worry... we have online programs as well! If you have any questions or want to know more, e-mail me at kayla@tntgetfit.com!

• Metabolic Testing

The professionals at TNT can accurately and quickly measure your resting metabolic rate (RMR). Resting metabolic rate represents the number of calories your body burns to maintain vital body functions such as heart rate, brain function, and breathing. This accounts for approximately 75% of total metabolism. The remainder of your metabolism (or the calories you require in any given day) includes daily activity (occupational & lifestyle) and energy spent exercising.

“Companies that have implemented high-performing corporate wellness programs have annual healthcare costs that are $1,800 less per employee than organizations without such programs…In a company that employs 10,000 people, this translates to an annual cost savings of $18 million.” This service can be done online or on-site. We will customize it to your specific needs!
