| Dear Members and Friends,
As we approach the end of yet another year, we reflect back on all the changes that have taken place at PrimeTime and in our world. The goals we’ve accomplished, the new friends we’ve made, and the loved ones we’ve said good-bye to all have served to make 2014 most memorable. If your year hasn’t been all that great, we hope that the new year brings better times – but if this year has given you joy, we hope that you find more of the same waiting for you and your family as we step into 2015.

| New Faces Continue to Appear –
Steve will help you eat clean in 2015!
Last year’s December newsletter delivered the announcement that Ken was leaving us and heading to, of all places, Iowa. Of course, with Ken’s departure came a great deal of trepidation and concern from all of us here at PrimeTime. We’ve been lucky enough to land Mitch in his place, and now we have another new face to welcome to the PrimeTime team!
At this time of year, and especially as we enter 2015, many of us begin to ask questions and set goals around our fitness. Exercise . . . yep, we know we need it. Got questions about what to do, when to do it, and how to do it most effectively? That’s why your PrimeTime Fitness trainers are here. Nutrition . . . of course, you know you need to pay attention to yours. But where do you begin?
Welcome on board Steve Benjamin! Although your trainer is certainly qualified to give you general nutritional advice (eat your veggies; consume lean protein at every meal; don’t drink your food, eat it; don’t eat too much; avoid processed anything; and stay away from too much alcohol), Steve can help you with the specifics.
Steve is a recent graduate of The Ohio State University, where he obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Nutrition and Community Health, and is also an ISSA (International Sports Sciences Association) Certified Sports Nutritionist. He played on The Ohio State University JV football team for three years, while creating nutritional and strength programs for a number of athletes on the team throughout his tenure.
Steve knows the importance of nutrition in reaching your fitness goals, and has experienced the benefits in his own physique and performance. With his expertise, Steve can create a nutritional plan that is right for you, not the masses.
With the help of your trainer along with Steve’s nutritional guidance, you can create a combination of both diet and exercise that brings you the most beneficial approach to your overall health and optimum performance.
One of Steve’s favorite quotes reminds us that changes do not occur without action:
“Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.”
-Norman Peale-
So it’s time to take action! Join us for an introductory program with Steve on Sunday, January 11, at 4:00 p.m. He will walk you through the basics, answer your questions, and perhaps get you started on the road to better eating habits.
2105 – The Year to Eat Clean!
Sunday, January 11
4:00 p.m.
e-mail us to save your spot!
If you’d like to go ahead and jump into the holidays with a customized nutrition plan, call or e-mail us today to set up an appointment with Steve for an initial nutrition consultation!
