“After taking the MentalFit Course, I understood the importance of mindset, how to help myself first then my clients and community within the facility. This gave me the tools I needed to be able to talk to my clients, stay within scope and help make progress with their mindset and feel confident in that path to do so.“

Listen To Her Story 👇🏽
Melinda is a fitness, nutrition, and MentalFit coach at Portside Fitness and Nutrition. Portside Fitness and Nutrition has been offering fitness and nutrition coaching to their clients since they partnered with HSN Mentoring in 2018. To better serve her nutrition clients and community, Melinda recently invested in the MentalFit & Mindset Course.
Melinda and her team realized that mindset was the missing component within everything that they were already doing.
Melinda and her team ran a MentalFit Reset Challenge with the plan to have about 10 participants, the challenge reached an overwhelming amount of interest and it ended up with 32 participants!
Portside Fitness and Nutrition is a smaller-scale gym with less than 100 clients, having 32 participants for a challenge is huge!
They ended up working with 50% of the clients within 6 weeks of the challenge ending. They have three that have continued for 8+ months and are going strong!
With the help of HSN Mentoring and the MentalFit & Mindset Course, Portside Fitness & Nutrition is making more of an impact in their community by offering nutrition, fitness and MentalFit & mindset to their clients.
Melinda's Favorite MentalFit Client Win:
My favorite MentalFit win overall was having over 50% of our participants sign up to work with a Mental Health Professional after realizing that mental health is health, and we helped myth bust many stigmas around it.
How The MentalFit & Mindset Course Is Helping The Community At Portside Fitness
“The course has helped our community because it normalized the conversation around mental health and helped participants see how beneficial the 7 pillars of the MentalFit framework are. They also learned how to identify which pillar they need to lean into based on what is going on in their lives, how they feel, and their reactions. We discuss mindset daily and ways to reframe in our gym community and nutrition coaching program. “
