Being Unhealthy and/or Overweight is NOT the Problem…

The problem is the behaviors which led you to gain weight or become unhealthy in the first place. The problem is that you cannot eat “healthy” for more than a few days or a couple of weeks without being tempted by your favorite fast food or sweet treat. Here’s the reality: It’s very simple to […]

Costa Rica, 5 Reasons To Go

5 Reasons You Need to Visit Costa Rica By: Amanda Finn To be completely honest, Costa Rica was never on my bucket list. I had seen the photos of the gorgeous country, the wide variety of animals, and the food that words cannot begin to describe, and yet it just never called to me. That […]

Happy New Year fellow Vai Athletica supporters!! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season. We had a lot of fun and some good quality family time but I’m not gonna lie, I’m glad it’s all over! Not that I’m some sort of Scrooge or Grinch, I’m just excited to get back to regular stuff […]

Hard Work Pays Off (End of 2021)

This world isn’t easy. It isn’t always fun, it rarely makes sense, and sometimes it makes us question, what is the point of it all? Whether you believe in a higher power or not, the same truth holds for all of us: we are rarely given anything we don’t work for.  Every single person on this […]

NYC with Vai Athletica

If there is one thing I can teach anyone about visiting New York City, it’s this: be comfy. Over the course of my weekend in NYC in October I walked nearly 70,000 steps (that’s 35 miles) without even realizing it. You just walk everywhere in New York, how else can you experience the city? While […]

Where Does The Time Go?

      I can’t believe that it is already August of 2021, where has the time gone?  Between working a full-time job, raising a 5-year-old, rescuing a 7-month-old German Shepherd,  maintaining a household, and running a small start-up business I can see why time flies by!  It’s almost impossible to manage Marketing, Social Media, bookkeeping, networking, blogging, […]

What Do We Do When the Motivation Runs Out?

Hello, again and happy summer time! Our last discussion revolved around understanding your “why”: Why do you live your life the way that you live it; why do you want the things that you think you want; why do you wake up each morning, exercise, go to work, eat the foods that you do, go […]
