My name is Anne Urubkov!I created this site to share about the health and fitness journey. My hope is to share content to help you live and active and healthy lifestyle no matter what challenges arise!Exercise has been a passion of mine for 30 years. When I was in the eighth grade I joined a local gym and my health and fitness journey formally began. From here I began exploring exercise, nutrition, and supplements and have been learning ever since.I've experienced pain, setbacks, surgeries, and other challenges of many kinds on my health and fitness journey. In the midst I learned to lean into the right support people and remain active no matter what challenges showed up. Guess what? You can too!I live by the motto, "You can. End of story." Taking I can't or it's too hard out of the equation opens the door for learning, growth, and forward moving progress!I live authentically and value being honest with myself and others. I believe that these play an important role in relationships and living out a successful active and healthy lifestyle for the long term!Most of what I share will be from personal experience and experience helping others. If certifications are important for you to know, I have mine listed below.I'd love to share with you what I have learned on my journey and help you see how you can implement exercise and healthy choices, even if you have limitations due to pain or surgery! The benefits of incorporating exercise/activity can change all aspects of your life and rehabilitation/recovery processI love connecting with others and doing what I can to help along the way! If you have any questions, feedback, or want to share your experience with me feel free to reach out!The journey can be challenging, encouragement and support are super helpful in staying the course for long-term success!
