Cornerstone Fitness Studio owner Paul Elmore says they offer nutritional coaching and metabolism reset, in conjunction with one-on-one personal training, small group training, agility honing and youth training.
"I'm a motivated health professional who has experience in every area of fitness. I've always had a deep passion for assisting others with finding their top potential and then helping them achieve it. From all that I witnessed, I learned people need much more than just diets and exercise routines," Paul states.
"I truly feel it's a privilege and a blessing to be in a position to help others improve their overall lifestyles."
To choose foods for a metabolism reset, Paul recommends focusing on nutrient-dense options that are high in protein, fiber and healthy fats, ones that require more energy to digest and help stabilize blood sugar. A diet rich in whole foods, such as those found in DASH diets, are beneficial. Specifically, the DASH diet, or Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, is a heart-healthy eating plan designed to lower blood pressure by emphasizing fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean protein, low-fat dairy and nuts, while limiting sodium (salt), added sugars and saturated fats.
Seek more ‘real’ plant-based foods and beverages that feature wholesome vegetables, nuts, seeds and plants, compared to ultra-processed plant-based choices such as potato chips and cereals, Paul says is a great first step.
To help older adults have lean body mass, Paul says they can close protein gaps based on current muscle, no matter age. "Add protein powders to sauces, or snack on protein bars."
Well-rounded, sustainable diets, such as the Mediterranean diet, are the best way to eat. Paul says the Cornerstone Fitness approach has never been about fad diets. From Bargersville, Paul assists others with diet planning and weight loss, along with supplements and meal options.
Food industry analysts indicate the following foods and beverages in moderation help boost metabolism in overall ways: protein-rich foods, mineral-rich foods, chili peppers, coffee, tea, beans, legumes, ginger, cacao, water, seaweed and medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) oil, a unique type of fat that may offer some metabolic benefits. Most fats found in foods are long-chain triglycerides, but MCT oil comprises medium-chain triglycerides. Unlike long-chain fats, some health studies show that once MCTs are absorbed, they go directly to the liver to be turned into energy, which makes them less likely to be stored as body fat.
"We've had a lot of success in helping people learn how to eat healthier within their busy lifestyles, such as blending up green smoothies. Opt for grilled or baked foods instead of fried," Paul adds.
He says fitness is much more than just weights and cardio. "It's a lifestyle. That's the approach I take to training. It's all about the total lifestyle change. Fitness and life are really about challenging yourself to do things that you never thought you could do. That's my base philosophy on training."
Results are driven not only by motivation with Paul as a National Academy of Sports Medicine certified nutrition specialist, but through a step-by-step personalized exercise routine that best fits individual lifestyles. "I believe that working toward, and achieving, your fitness goals not only improves your appearance, but will most importantly improve your total outlook on life."
