Christie Gilbert,
CPT|Health Coach|
Women's Metabolic Specialist
I've spent over 25 years coaching women to feel powerful in their bodies again-because I know how it feels to suddenly struggle with weight gain, low energy, and stalled results in your 40s.That's why I co-created the Carb Cycling Code, our hormone -smart, metabolism-rebooting method that's now
John Wolnik
CPT| Kettlebell Specialist| Strength Coach
A former competitive bodybuilder and lifelong martial artist, I've dedicated over 25 years mastering strength, movement, and long-term health.
As a kettlebell training expert and certified coach, I've helped hundreds of women transform their physiques- with smart programming that builds lean muscle, burns fat, and boost confidence.
Now in my 50s, I walk the talk. I prioritize nutrition, recovery, hormone health, and consistency-because results don't come from going harder, but from going smarter and with purpose.
