Pushin' 500

That's some serious weight to be throwing around there.  Be we are talking about something more serious than how much weight you can lift.
This is even more important than your weight or the number on the scale.  Being strong is important and losing weight is important when its put in the proper perspective.
But most importantly you have to focus on two key things.

Functional Movement Training and Nutrition.  These two components go hand in hand with any transformation.

Last week, I had the pleasure of speaking with Mark Johnson, General Manager at Applebees.
Here is a sneak peek behind what makes a place like Applebees Neighborhood Bar & Grill just that great.
We took the time to snack on apple slices.  He also ordered a delicious pasta on the house.  Mark and I discussed his background with Applebees and you could tell that he truly takes pride in his work.

Mark has been with Applebees in Milford, Delaware for 5.5 Years.  Before that, he was the Assistant General Manager for the Travle Plaza.


What are 3 things that are a MUST that a customer expects when dining at Applebees?

• "The customer must leave happy and experience the friendly service only found at Applebees.  The customer will find value in the quality food.  And cleanliness is an absolute must!"

Is there a secret to preparing  some of these delicious meals?

• "The food must be hot or cold as it is expected and ordered.  There must be a consistency to the quality of the fresh ingredients and recepies used."

Shouldn't every experience be the same?

• "Absolutely, that is why we coach consistency."

How important is Consistency and Attention to Detail?

• "It is the basic foundation to building repeat guests and customers.  This is the Key Ingredient to the Recepie of Success."

What healthy meals do you recommend on the Applebee's Menu?

• "The 550 and Weight Watchers Entrees are delicious and healthly sized portions perfect for anybody that is being conscious about eating but still looking for a tasteful experience."

With the finiest staff in Milford, most people can't hope to compare to the dining experience, but what about somebody that wants to prepare their own healthy meals?

• "Anybody can do it on their own, but we do it so well, why would you want to go anywhere else?"

You want to create value for the customer, but portion control has to be important, right?

• "Absolutely, especially for somebody counting calories.  We are very particular about the amount of ingredients used for every dish."

I recommend that clients eat half of the entree and take the other half home.  When should the entree be eaten by?

• "I would recommend finishing the meal in less than 24 hours."

Some ingredients must be prepared ahead of time when we are so busy and on the go.  Could a client prepare their own salads and protein?

• "Absoulutely."

 How long will the ingredients, such as salad mix last for?

• "Approximately 2 days.  Make sure to eat at least one fresh salad, then finish the rest before 36-48 hours."

What about proteins?

• "All of our entrees are cooked to order.  However, you can prepare enough protein to last approximately 48 hours.  Be sure to avoid wasting food."

Now, everybody, remember that food is not for pleasure.  Food is fuel that drives us to reach new fitness levels.  Are you ready to rise to the next level.

Have you built a solid foundation?
