Miranda Alcaraz - Street Parking & Fitness Simplified

Street Parking was founded by Julian and Miranda Alcaraz in 2016. Miranda – after 15 years in the fitness industry, 8 years on CrossFit HQ seminar staff, and 8 years competing in CrossFit. Julian – after 10 years in the fitness industry, and 5 years competing in CrossFit. Both having trained and competed at the highest level – the CrossFit Games – they found themselves in new territory – busy. Julian was running a business and Miranda had settled into a full time job. At the time the couple was dating and lived over an hour away from each other. They noticed something interesting. The workouts they would post on their social media from HOME – with simple equipment – was what people who followed them responded to most.   An idea was formed. Post the simple workouts we are doing at home – so people can follow along. Charge a fee that is totally doable for most people. Create a community where we can push and motivate each other. The first ever workouts were posted in November 2016 (just a few days before Miranda found out she was pregnant with their baby boy). Memberships went up for sale the week before New Years. Within the first month, Street Parking had 700 Members.   Miranda has had huge success in the fitness industry and now in business. Her current business, Street Parking, has over 10,000 members and she started in less than two years ago! Street Parking is a workout program designed for people who have limited time and/or equipment. Let’s listen to how she accomplished this in such a short time. Listen, subscribe and share!

Reed Davis: General Principles of Health Building

Reed Davis, Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner (HHP) and Certified Nutritional Therapist (CNT), is an expert in functional lab testing and holistic lifestyle medicine. Over 20 years ago, Reed Davis recognized people were caught in a “cycle of trial and error” and he committed to being the last person they needed to see. While working with top leaders in alternative medicine, he ran thousands of labs on thousands of people and learned to identify “healing opportunities.” Using all-natural, drug-free protocols, Reed made observations about who got better and who didn’t, codifying which “general principles of health building” would outperform “specific treatments” being provided by standard and even alternative medicine. And through this work, he then developed the Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® Certification Course and D.R.E.S.S. for Health Success Protocol® to educate and empower as many people as possible about how to get well and stay well naturally, so they, in turn, may empower others to do the same.   Resources and Links:  https://www.facebook.com/FunctionalDiagnosticNutrition/  https://twitter.com/FDNtraining  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7xDnEKCe9gKeWZ2vbE3C8w  https://www.instagram.com/fdntraining/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/san-diego-natural-health-&-fitness-ctr/   Connect with us: https://www.futureoffitness.co/
