OUR LIFESTYLE FITNESS EDUCATION & TRAINING CURRICULUM

Next Step: How to start living intentionally and discover what God really wants for your life, by Timothy K. Lynn, was developed and written to show you how to get from where you are to where you want to be – and it all starts from where you are right now.

A faith-filled system for intentional living, Next Step facilitates building Lifestyle Fitness in the four key components or pillars in one’s life – Faith, Self, Family and Life’s Work. We understand that being healthy is about striving for excellence in all areas of your lifestyle.

From taking action in your faith, taking action for your self, including eating a whole-food, plant-predominant eating pattern, regular physical activity and exercise, restorative sleep, stress management, avoidance of risky substances, to taking action in your family and building positive social connectivity with others around you, to taking action in your Life’s Work so you are in joy each day, expressing your self to the fullest in your work.

NUTRITION

One of the most powerful steps you can take to improve your overall health, boost your energy, and prevent chronic diseases is to change to a Whole-Food, Plant-Based, Nutrient-Rich diet. Our “Food Choice Management” program is an individual approach and practical method of moving you into eating nutrient-dense foods for optimal health. The scientific evidence is clear: A Whole-Food, Plant-Predominant eating pattern is a powerful way to lose weight, reverse and prevent chronic disease, live better and more vibrantly, strengthen your immune system and slow the aging process.
We offer one-on-one, small group and class instruction for you to change and manage your food choices.

EXCERCISE

Regular, consistent physical activity and exercise that can be maintained on a daily basis throughout life – walking, hiking, running, resistance training, rebounding, gardening – are essential to your lifestyle. The scientifically proven benefits of physical activity and exercise remain indisputable, and they can be as powerful as any pharmaceutical intervention in preventing and controlling a range of chronic diseases and medical conditions. Exercise is Medicine! 
We offer one-on-one, small group and class exercise instruction for you to build this essential piece of your lifestyle. 

 

SPA, RELAXATION & STRESS MANAGEMENT

Stress can lead to improved health and productivity – or it can lead to anxiety, depression, obesity, immune system dysfunction and more. Helping you understand and recognize negative stress responses, identify positive coping mechanisms and stress reduction techniques will lead to improved health and well-being. Our Lifestyle Fitness Retreat is the ideal getaway for you to relax, manage your stress and rejuvenate.
We offer one-on-one, small group and class instruction for you to learn and practice relaxation and stress management.

Message From Adam Hamilton, Health & Wellness Expert

Hello! I’m Adam Hamilton, M.S.Ed., ACSM-EP, and I’m happy you’re here. I love the science of Lifestyle Change. Lifestyle Change is actually the foundation of conventional medicine. We know that 85 percent of chronic disease today is caused by unhealthy lifestyle choices.

I have been a Health & Fitness Practitioner for nearly 20 years, and I have seen incredible transformations from simply making lifestyle changes. Here at Lifestyle Fitness Institute, we strongly emphasize diet and exercise, but we know it takes more than that.

Our Next Step System all facilitates building fitness along with personal and spritual growth based around the 4 pillars of Faith, Self, Family & Life’s Work. Our program is about intensive work to strive for excellence across all areas of your life: Taking action in your Faith, taking best care and action for your Self, including eating a Whole-Food, Plant-Predominant diet, regular physical activity and exercise, restorative sleep, stress management, avoidance of risky & unhealthy substances, taking action in your Family & building positive social connectivity with all around you, to taking action in your Life’s Work, so you are spending each day in joy, loving what you are doing & expressing yourself to the fullest.

I am looking forward to helping you adopt a healthier path forward!

Client Testimonials

“For many years I have been in and out of living a healthy lifestyle. It’s easy to get started but takes discipline to keep going. Starting LFI has been a great help in keeping that discipline. Being here, there is constant support and accountability, two very important things that keep me going! Not only have I been working my body but my mind as well. “The Next Step” classes help me understand my daily life better and ways to KEEP a healthy and well balanced lifestyle for the future.”


“I have struggled with my weight for as long as I can remember and this system has really taught me how to manage it. Between the workouts and the classes, I have learned more about my body, my life, and my mind than I would ever had learned on my own. With the help of Adam and an amazing support system, I know that I am on my way to the healthy lifestyle that so many, like me, strive to get to. I am proud to be a part of this program and will continue to carry the lessons I have learned throughout my day to day life.”


“The Next Step by Tim Lynn has been a great tool that I find myself going back to when I need to reset. It has helped to remind me to balance faith, self, family, and life’s work. Now that I am in my 40’s the lifeline goal setting plan has helped me to plan and figure out what’s next for my life. The book talks about the fact that visualization is a big part of seeing and then achieving your goals. I kept a model Saratoga airplane on my desk, noticed it everyday and visualized my goal of owning one. Last year I achieved the goal and purchased the Saratoga! Tim Lynn provides the path to improving balance in life, achieving goals and accomplishing both in harmony.”
