🌿 Nutrition doesn’t have to be all or nothing.

Feeling overwhelmed by what “healthy eating” should look like? You’re not alone—and you’re not doing it wrong. ❤️

In her newest blog post, Anna Carne, dietetics student at EMU, invites us to reframe how we think about food with the 80/20 tool—a flexible, guilt-free approach that encourages balance without restriction.

🥗 80% nourishing foods that fuel your body
🍪 20% joyful foods that feed your soul
No guilt. No shame. Just real life.

✨ As Anna says: “Wouldn’t it be wonderful to enjoy those foods and leave the guilt behind?”
Yes. Yes, it would.

Want to boost your results and stay consistent?
Start with something simple but powerful:
📝 A fitness journal.

Whether you're practicing yoga, strength training, or just getting back into movement, tracking your journey helps you.

You don’t need anything fancy — just start where you are.
📒 Write it. Move it. Own it.

💪 Let’s Talk About Sarcopenia 💪
Starting as early as your 30s, we naturally begin to lose 3–8% of muscle mass per decade — a process called sarcopenia. By age 60+, this accelerates, affecting strength, balance, and independence.
(Source: NIH, Ageing Research Reviews, 2010)
But here’s the good news:
Exercise is the most powerful tool we have to slow or even reverse it.
💪 Resistance training just 2–3x/week can:
✅ Increase muscle mass
✅ Improve balance & coordination
✅ Reduce risk of falls by up to 30%
(Source: Journal of Aging Research, 2012)

It’s never too late to start moving. At Imagine Fitness and Yoga, our classes support strength, flexibility, and function — in a safe, welcoming space for all ages.
👣 Ready to age stronger?
Let’s move — together.
