training your mind to transform your body

In my 30 years of teaching nutrition and exercise I have learned that training the mind is the key to training the body. Over-training, under-training, eating, compliance, discipline, work ethic, overcoming adversity, focus and confidence - all begin in the mind. We need to create new habits and overcome our personal adversities so that the mind, body, and performance can change. Neuroplasticity is the ability to change your brain’s wiring and habits. This is the key to our training.
— Joe Garafolo CSCS, Founder of Performance Incorporated

Since 1985, exercise, nutrition, and mental health have been our focus at Performance Incorporated. Our program's 'bio-psycho-social' model looks at the whole person, a state of the art method of treating fitness for performance-oriented clients and athletes. We understand your total needs and provide customized individual strategy focused on healthy eating with a training program geared toward helping you to actualize your own best "fit" self.
