TESTIMONIAL
When I started Black Iron Nutrition, I wasn't sure what to expect. I was at a point in my life where I was not happy with the way I felt or the way I looked, but I wasn't really sure where to start. I had an image of myself that I wanted to achieve, & that was really it. Little did I know that my nutrition journey was so much more than just a fantasized "six-pack" version of myself.

Being a former collegiate athlete, life after sports was difficult to navigate. I went from working out, practicing or competing 4+ hours a day, to sitting behind a desk barely working out for 45 minutes 3 times a week. My daily activity changed, but my nutrition did not. Within a few years after college, I found CrossFit. I honestly thought it would answer all my problems. It answered some, but obviously not all. I wasn't seeing the results I thought I should - & now I understand why.

Fast forward four years & I couldn't feel more in control of my life! And I attest it all to my amazing coach, Lauren. Within a year of being with BIN, Lauren has taught me more than I ever imagined or thought I needed to know. I've improved not only my daily nutrition, but my relationship with food, my sleep habits, my performance in the gym (I feel like I've PR’d more than I did in my first year of CrossFit!), my self confidence, & most importantly my relationship with myself & my body. I needed Lauren so much more than I thought I did - she has seriously turned my life around & changed my view on nutrition & most important myself for the better. I can't thank her enough for her guidance & support, & I can't wait to continue my journey with her!
