Your life, your body, and your circumstances are different than ANYONE else’s.
Your Program Should Be Too
Our 1:1 Health Coaching Approach
IS ALL VIRTUAL! SO WE CAN TRAIN AND COACH YOU FROM ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.
We believe coaching is more of partnership between us as the coaches, and our clients.
We don’t just tell you what to do, we guide you and let you make the informed, educated decisions for your health. We teach you along the way so that you can carry tools with you that last a lifetime.
We only take on a small roster of clients at a time to take care of you. We specialize in unparalleled customization, meeting you where you’re at, and creating a sustainable program that works for you and your lifestyle.
Your life, your body, your circumstances, and your schedule, is different than ANYONE else’s. Your program should be too. It’s your own! The pillars of our program include Nutrition, Exercise, Lifestyle, Accountability, and Hormonal Health
-
Your nutrition goals are set to your body, your life, and your goals. We also don’t encourage any dieting or restrictions, rather, learning HOW to eat, eating the things you love, and giving your body what it needs.
We believe that just like there is not one specific program that works for everyone, there can be no cookie cutter nutrition program either. We work with what is REALISTIC and SUSTAINABLE for you.
-
Your exercise program has to also suit your life, your schedule, and your goals. Whether you want to work out at the gym or at home, we’ve got you covered!
Your program will match with that and how your body moves. We do an assessment right at the start to see how your body moves, what imbalances you have, and program for you with the equipment you have. We monitor injuries and make sure we teach injury prevention through the process of programming workouts for you!
-
Your lifestyle is the foundation of your health. You can be doing all the right things, but if you’re chronically dehydrated, not sleeping, and are stressed to the max, we have to work on these lifestyle factors.
We teach you how to control your life, not let your life control you. Many of our clients find that once they do, their whole life improves, and their health follows.
-
A huge piece of working 1:1 with you, is giving you support weekly. We do weekly check ins, either via phone call, or virtual recorded video, in order to keep you on track with the next goals for the week. We keep these goals simple, sustainable, and doable for YOU. This helps you “climb the mountain” one step at a time, rather than feeling like you’re being drowned by a fire hose from throwing everything at you at once.
Then, once you move on and do not need us anymore, you have the tools, the habits, and consistency to sustain this for years to come. No more crash diets, yo-yo diets, quick fixes, just long term, sustainable, longevity.
-
We could not help you and your total health without monitoring the foundational pieces of your health like your gut, hormones, thyroid , and adrenal function. We work with your health in TOTAL, holistically, not just throwing basics at you. We want you to thrive, feel your best, look your best, and perform at your best, at any age by optimizing your nutrition and lifestyle to match it.
Founder, Coach, Tana Grenda
I live in southwestern Alaska. I built this virtual coaching business when I got 5 foster kids at ONCE and became an instant family. I wanted to work and help people, but also be home with my kids.
I could only help so many people on my own. So when I built my team, I brought together a collection of outdoor-loving, adventurous coaches with different specialties and experience that believed in customization with programming and a person’s total health, from their lifestyle, nutrition, and exercise, all the way down to their internal health, hormones, gut health, and past trauma.
We believe that your life, your circumstances, your adventures, your time, and your body is unlike anybody else’s, so your program should be too. We also believe in the power of strength and eating a lot of food, not cutting it out!
This ensures that we can meet you where you are at with the struggles you have, create your ultimate custom program, walk alongside that journey with you, and help guide you to where you want to go.

It depends. We want you to get RESULTS that LAST. A majority of people would not get results without nutrition accountability, because nutrition is 80% of your goals and is the biggest hurdle for most people. We will only do this if we have determined the client already has a sound nutrition regime, and it already supports what their training program will be. We can determine this on a consult call.

1:1 Life Coaching with April, 1:1 Health Coaching with Lindsay Persico
“I couldn't speak more highly about these two amazing women! The help, support, and encouragement I've gotten (and continue to receive) from them is something I will be eternally grateful for. I feel I was such a broken shell of a human being when I first started my program with Lindsay over a year ago. That's now very far from how I feel.
Not being at all dramatic or exaggerating, I wouldn't be here today without all the help I've recieved from two of them. I also feel I owe you a big thank you for that as well. If it wasn't for you/ Bristol bay, you're incredibly caring coaches, things would be so dramatically different. So really, thank YOU!!
I also appreciate the hand of support you offer. Though, I'm always at such a loss as to how people can help or support me, knowing that there's people here for me, in my corner, it means so much. “

1:1 Health Coaching with JJ
“When I sought help for myself, I didn’t think it would impact others. I am now sharing what I learned with others.
I am still working on challenging myself even after not having you as my coach holding me accountable anymore. Is my fibromyalgia in “remission.” I don’t know how to say it, other than I have NO symptoms when I do my foundations consistently!”

1:1 Health Coaching with Tana
“Hi Tana! I’ve been in survival mode and haven’t been able to send you something through the mail so here I am texting you.
I just wanted to tell you thank you… for changing our lives. I learned so much from you about how to take care of myself, and we barely even scratched the surface with exercise, but I learned so much about my hormones, what food is good things for me and bad, how much Whole Foods help me, and I don’t function without enough calories.
Our family will finally found out this weekend, and I will share on Facebook sometime next week, but I’m currently 11 weeks pregnant with a healthy baby. Five years of infertility, perfectly healthy test results from a fertility clinic, three miscarriages, and here we are naturally pregnant. I wholeheartedly feel you put us on this trajectory with stress management, water, food, & movement. My body finally felt safe. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Tana.

1:1 Hunt Prep with Tana
I was broken and weak when I started working with Tana. My airplane wreck messed me up inside and out. Tana activated something inside of me that was really a launching point and has never slowed me down. This body has amazing capabilities when its fueled correctly.

1:1 Coaching with Lindsay, JJ, and April
Thank you so much for your teams help and support the last few years. I have a spinal injruy that I have tried to work through and am finding out the hard way that the doctors are right and I need to take it easy so I had to pause theh program. But Lindsay has truly been great, and it has been life changing for me to work with her the last 1.5 yeras. Together we far exceeded my goals and even though I had to cancel my hunt, I think we have for sure accomplished what I came here to do. Everyone on your team has been great also, JJ, and April as my life coach.

1:1 Hunt prep with Tana
Prior to this, I have done some kind of P90X and HIIT workouts and running on and off the last 10 years. I could see some changes in my body, but they were minimal. Two years ago I did keto and lost 25 pounds, but had no muscle growth, even while continuing to do P90X workouts and running. I gained 15 pounds back just adding back in carbs. Fast foward to 4 months with Tana, I went from eating 1500 calories to 2700 calories/day, eating foods I love, working out 4 days a week, and walking and hiking and I am down inches, and have more muscle. I can see it in the mirror and feel it in my clothes. It’s amazing. I have better posture and my body feels better. I sleep better and eat more carbs so I have more energy throughout the day. Bristol Bay Fitness Is what I needed all along! I now feel Unstoppable for my bighorn sheep hunt this fall!
