\n

Open the Watershed was designed to make sure you never stress about your health, fitness, or nutrition. You have questions, and we work with the world\u2019s best experts to provide a variety of clear, helpful answers.<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t matter if your goal is losing weight, gaining muscle, living longer, or eating healthier \u2014 we make sure you don\u2019t stress the details and have solutions that fit your needs.<\/p>\n

Think less confusion, more assistance, and a place you can trust.\u00a0No matter what you might believe, good health is simply a matter of having access to the right information that fits into your preferences and then being provided with a roadmap of what to do so it\u2019s easy to take action.<\/p>\n

We understand that you are frustrated by too much information, too many conflicting ideas, and non-stop empty promises.<\/p>\n

Your struggles are our motivation to solve your problems. No question is too big or too small. If we don\u2019t have an answer, let us know and we\u2019ll provide it. That\u2019s the Open the Watershed way.<\/p>\n

WHY NOW?<\/h2>\n
\n

There are lots of good trainers, nutritionists, researchers, and writers.\u00a0Our job is to bring them under one roof, and have them create solutions that are not only helpful, but also easy to understand, practical, and doable.<\/p>\n

We will help you identify the best diets, exercises and workouts, and strategies that you can apply to your life to feel better, look the way you want, and live stronger and longer.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no reason for you to be stressed or believe that a healthier, fit body, a better mindset, or a better life isn\u2019t for you.<\/p>\n

And more than anything: thank you.<\/p>\n

Thank you for having the courage to continue searching for a better way to live. Thank you for not giving up. And thank you for giving us a chance to be the light at the end of the tunnel. Our job is to make sure that you\u2019re never in the dark again, and that we can provide solutions and strategies for all of your health, fitness, and nutrition needs. Welcome to the family.<\/p>\n

YOUR HEALTH, YOUR WAY<\/h2>\n
\n

Your health isn\u2019t limited to a gym, a diet, or the image you see in the mirror. It\u2019s much bigger than that. And we focus on giving you the tools to be in control of your body.<\/p>\n

Your health is what you make of it.\u00a0The real distinction between healthy and unhealthy is giving a damn about your body, and making sure you do something \u2010 heck, anything \u2010 consistently so that you can live a long, active life, take care of yourself, and take care of others in this world.<\/p>\n

We believe in setting goals, creating good behaviors, and sharing options that are sustainable. But that\u2019s only half of the battle.<\/p>\n

You need better ways to make movement and eating an easy, seamless part of your life.<\/p>\n

Notice that we didn\u2019t say lifting weights or doing cardio, never mentioned a specific diet, or ask you to remove anything from your life.<\/p>\n

Do we have our preferences?\u00a0Of course. But, we also know that there isn\u2019t one route to success. You have many great options, and our job is to point you in the right direction for what will work for your life and your body.<\/p>\n

Any other approach is a recipe for failure.\u00a0We believe that dessert can be part of a healthy eating plan, that walking can be a perfectly suitable form of exercise, and that \u201cone-size fits-all\u201d is code word for \u201cone-size-fits-none.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is a family.\u00a0It\u2019s a community. And most of all, we are a team dedicated to providing clarity in an industry of noise and deception.<\/p>\n

Your life doesn\u2019t have to play by someone else\u2019s rules.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
