Foods That Taste Good and are Healthy

1. Beans and Lentils

They are rich in protein, fiber, complex carbohydrates, iron, magnesium, potassium, and zinc. Beans are versatile and easy on your wallet.


2. Watermelon


One of the most popular fruits during the summer, watermelon "should be a staple in everyone’s diet. "It is fun to eat, sweet, juicy, low in calories, and chock full of vitamins C and A, potassium, and lycopene (cancer fighting agent and a powerful antioxidant). Because it is so high in water, it helps meet fluid needs."


3. Sweet Potatoes


Sweet potatoes are high in vitamin B6. They are also a good source of vitamin C, vitamin D, iron, and magnesium. 


4. Plain, Nonfat Greek Yogurt 


Greek yogurt is an excellent source of calcium, potassium, protein, zinc, and vitamins B6 and B12. Also, it contains probiotic cultures and is lower in lactose and has twice the protein content of regular yogurts. Greek yogurt contains twice as much protein than other yogurt choices.

Small Goals Leads to Increased Motivation

Do You Ever Want to Give Up? Well...Setting Small Goals Can Keep You Motivated.


Many times when setting goals we say "I want abs" or "I want to run a 5k by November", but how are we to go about not only meeting these goals, but staying motivated during the process?

D1 wants you to know that setting small goals every day can keep you motivated throughout your long term fitness journey. How do you begin you ask?


1. Start. 

This may sound obvious, but many people worry about irrelevant obstacles. An irrelevant obstacle can be your fears, what other people might think, or your feelings/mood.

“Fear is not real. The only place that fear can exist is in our thoughts of the future. It is a product of our imagination, causing us to fear things that do not at present and may not ever exist. That is near insanity. Do not misunderstand me danger is very real but fear is a choice.” - Will Smith

What other people think should not influence YOUR fitness journey. Stop letting other people determine how you will live YOUR life. And feelings are inconsistent. If you FEEL like you don't want to go to work, what do you do? Go to work. Right? You push through the drowsy feeling when you wake up and go to work because you need to. This also applies to fitness training. You many not FEEL like going to the gym or doing your workout, but just go. You will find that you are stronger than you thought. 


2. Set small goals 

Instead of having an overall goal of "getting abs", start by just going to the gym everyday. That's it. Make it to the gym everyday, or what is suitable to your schedule. This will not only keep you encouraged, but will help you succeed at your overall fitness goals. 


"What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals" - Henry David Thoreau


3. Ask for help


When beginning something new, ask for help. No one knows everything. You may find out new and helpful fitness, nutritional, and goal setting techniques.


4. Do not be hard on yourself


You didn't reach your overall goal? So what? Did you try your hardest? Did you accomplish the majority, if not all, of your small goals? Well then relax. Keep going. No one person is like the other. Your progress is not their progress.


When a baby learns how to walk they always fall. The parents NEVER look at the child and say "look at how much he/she fell", no they say "look he/she is walking". 


D1 hopes this encourages you in your fitness journey. For anyone looking to achieve 

personal, sports, or fitness modeling goals stop by 6150 Old Pineville Road, Charlotte, NC 28217 or call 704.523.2229.

What Do You Value Most In A Trainer?



Being a college student, saving money is always my priority. Utilizing my dollars to the very cent helps me use self control in many aspects of my life, from food to extracurricular activities. However, I have found that sometimes spending extra money to get a valuable product or service is necessary.

As an intern at D1 Personal & Sports Fitness Training, I was introduced to specialized fitness training that I had never seen before. With trainers that access your initial fitness level and coach you through your desired fitness goals and nutrition, I experienced clients walk in 3 weeks after their first training session six pounds lighter with hope in their eyes or highschool athletes gain 10 pounds of muscle within a month as they prepared for collegic competition.

The workouts are not boring, repetitive lifts or stretches, but active and agility based workouts for any age group. D1 Personal & Sports Fitness Training is the best training anyone could receive for the price that they offer. Come and visit us at 6150 Old Pinevile Rd, Suite C, Charlotte, NC 28217 or call at (704) 523-2229 TODAY.

The main qualities I look for in a trainer are empathy, patience, helpful, cost efficient, active listening skills, and creative and effective workouts. D1 Personal & Sports Fitness incompasses every quality for its clients. What do you value you most? Comment below.
