About Us

Hi, my name is Brian Stramel and I am an officer in the Oregon Army National Guard with combat tours in Afghanistan and more recently in Iraq. I worked as a security contractor on a protective detail in Iraq and served 7 years on active duty in the Army.

My main motivation to learn about fitness in the past has been to keep myself in shape for high risk security work and to be able to perform my duties as an infantryman in combat. Now that I am home (again), I want to help other people get better results with their fitness and weight loss efforts.

My wife Rachel posts reviews and blogs from time to time. She is a working mom who just wants to stay in shape and can relate to the struggles of balancing all those things. We have an 8 year old daughter, and 3 year old twins

I'm Rachel, and I'm a mom to a very active set of three year old twins as well as a 2nd grader. I'm not a great athlete and was never that interested in sports or in working out. From the couch, I watched my husband workout with his Kettlebell for years!

After our 1st daughter was born, I decided I needed to get back into shape and get serious about lowering my cholesterol and getting healthy. Being so fatigued, it was a struggle simply trying to get off of the couch and get through the day. I was pretty sick of saying "I should workout" and then finding excuse after excuse and not having any energy to exercise. I was just tired of being tired.

I have come a long way since then. I love helping and encouraging other Moms to get fit and to make time for themselves. It *is* possible, even with our crazy lives and busy families. I hope you find some great ideas here. My Kettlebells have given me a healthier and slimmer body, stronger muscles, and increased self-esteem and energy. As they say, enjoy the pain!
