I am going to warn you all right now that I am totally & 100% obsessed with tin foil dinners. This recent obsession with tin foil dinners is really just a rediscovery. My mom made a very traditional tin foil dinner every few weeks for us growing up, more of the meat and potatoes “hobo style” tin […]

Success Story: Alyssa Mitchell

What motivated you to get started at AFS? What motivated me to start at AFS was getting into a car accident in 2015, then undergoing spinal surgery in 2016.

Featured Client: Danielle Stephens

What motivated you to start at AFS? Until last year, I never considered my fitness to be a priority. See, here’s the thing: I’ve always hated the way I looked and the way I felt when I looked in a mirror. In my mind, being skinny was more important than being healthy, so my relationship […]

Strength Class

When I first started at AFS, I was newly single and wanted to feel better about myself. I didn’t like the person in the mirror anymore—it was like I was a ghost of myself, and with all the change already occurring, what was one more? It was time that I prioritized my life and put […]
