RESET90
RESET90 is a new, 90-day, coach-led nutrition and habit program designed to help you build consistency, feel more confident in your routine, and create habits that last beyond the program.
RESET 90 is a 90-day performance-based nutrition and accountability program led by Balance Trainer Laquita Carr. It is designed to teach you how to fuel your workouts and sustain results.
This Is For You If:
· You train consistently but feel under-fueled

The program is led by Coach Laquita, a seasoned fitness professional with years of experience guiding clients toward healthier, more sustainable lifestyles. Her coaching is practical, personalized, and results-driven — focused on helping you make progress you can actually maintain.
While RESET90 is designed to be flexible and largely remote, the accountability is intentionally high and often feels similar to a 1:1 coaching experience. You’ll receive ongoing guidance, check-ins, and support throughout the full 90 days.
What’s included:
In-person kickoff with goal setting, Technogym Check-Up and MyFitnessPal setup
Weekly nutrition and habit education (food + fitness)

FREE for Members: Hormone Reset Workshop
Periods, peri-menopause and menopause don’t have to be hellish.

She will weigh in on what forms of exercise and what nutritional approaches are best for each stage in your hormonal journey and do a deep dive into silent sabateurs to your hormonal harmony. She will share two client case studies revieiwing functional hormone testing and what was implemented to help each client achieve success. Can’t make it live? We will send you the recording.
Testimonial: “Susan’s recommendations based on my hormone lab work have improved my quality of life - I am sleeping better, am less anxious and moody and have finally shifted my body composition. I was told an anti-depressant was my only option; I’m so empowered finally understanding the root cause of my symtpoms and have a plan that’s personalized to me.” Nanci T.
Hormone Friendly Cook-A-Long
Take what you learned and put it into action with some accountability in the kitchen to begin to heal your hormones with your fork. Susan will send you the shopping list organized by aisle at Whole Foods (how easy is that!?), the recipes and then you show up on zoom ready to chop Sunday at 3:00. These 90 minutes in the kitchen pays you back all week long – helping you make the right choices and stay on track when life gets in the way. You will be high fiving yourself all week long when you have nourishing food in your fridge to keep your blood sugar stable and hormones happy all week.

Kettlebell Fundamentals Workshop
Kettlebells are one of the most versatile tools in the gym, but only if you know how to use them well.
On Saturday 1/24 from 12:00–1:00pm, I am leading a Kettlebell Fundamentals workshop. This 60-minute session is focused on learning the basics that make everything else work — positioning, breathing, and the key movements that show up again and again in training.
I have trained with kettlebells for 8+ years and uses them daily in my own training and coaching. This workshop will be coached the same way I coach on the floor: slowing things down, focusing on quality, and helping you understand why each movement matters.
This session is ideal if you:
Want to feel more confident using kettlebells
Have used them before but never learned proper fundamentals
Want to move better, not just lift heavier
Are looking for strength that carries over beyond the gym
You’ll leave with simple cues, a clearer understanding of the movements, and tools you can apply immediately in classes or training.
The cost of attendance is simply a class! Use your current class plan or drop in for the base rate of $25.
This is an exclusive invitation as it has not yet been communicated via social media or newsletter. If this sounds like something you’d benefit from, we’d love to have you join us.
Only 16 spot are available to keep the coaching hands-on.

Testimonial: “I have spent years dealing with chronic constipation, acid reflux, bloating, headaches and stubborn weight loss despite eating right and training hard. I have seen countless doctors and GI docs and have only been prescribed band aids that have long term side effects like omeprazole and miralax. I tried all the things I’ve read about - from collagen to bone broth to probiotics to juice cleanses and nothing has ever helped my symptoms. Doing the GI MAP stool test with Susan was the best money I have ever spent on myself – I finally got real answers and a plan that reversed my symptoms – my test showed I had h pylori, SIBO, histamine intolerance, low digestive enzymes and trouble with gluten. The test even showed me I was super low in the GLP-1 producing bacteria that help with a healthy metabolism. Within one week on my nutrition and supplements plan, my headaches and bloating were gone; within one month of my plan, my reflux and constipation were gone and my body composition finally started to shift. I only wish I had met Susan sooner!” -Carrie T
