Nice to Meet You!

Hi, I’m Chris Freytag—fitness lover, nutrition enthusiast, and total wellness advocate. Movement has been my thing for as long as I can remember, and for over 40 years, I’ve made it my mission to help others discover what it truly means to feel strong, energized, and happy in their own skin.

And if there’s one thing I know for sure at 59, it’s that how you move and what you eat has a profound impact on both your body and your mind. I’ve been through it all—pregnancy, perimenopause, post-menopause—and I get what it means to navigate the changing seasons of life.

I keep it real. No gimmicks, no quick fixes—just science-backed, practical advice with a dose of motivation to get you moving. I’m mildly obsessed with sharing everything I’ve learned so you can feel strong, confident, and beautiful every single day. And let’s be clear: being healthy isn’t about squeezing into a certain dress size or chasing some unattainable ideal. It’s about taking care of yourself today so you can feel amazing for years to come. It’s about longevity!

Oh, and that “perfect” body? It doesn’t exist. But your healthiest, happiest body? That’s 100% within reach—and I’m here to help you get there.
