Hello!
I am Yarrow, owner of Barbells and Brussels!
At 18 I attended The Institute For Integrative Nutrition while indulging my love for travel.
I got into nutrition in an attempt to heal my unruly skin that insisted upon continuously having acne for almost a decade. The deeper I dove the more curious I got.
I was introduced to CrossFit a few years later. This was the first I had ever felt like exercise/training had purpose. I was not burning calories for calories sake. I was learning what my body needed to accomplish what I was asking of it. In how I trained and what I ate.
I was becoming stronger, faster, fitter.
I grew confidence in myself and what I was capable of achieving. Inside and more importantly outside the gym. I was hooked!
I have spent the last 10 years broadening my depth of knowledge in both nutrition and exercise science. Discovering what we can accomplish with the right tools.
I am now a Level 3 Crossfit Trainer, Precision Nutrition Certified and a Nationally Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach.
My mission is to simplify the abundance of information surrounding nutrition, exercise, and health to make it more comprehensible and attainable for all.
My name and logo, Barbells & Brussels, stands for the necessity of strength training and whole foods for our health.
