One of the most common things we hear is some version of, “I can only make it a few times a week, is that even worth it?” The honest answer is yes. For most people, three well-programmed sessions a week is plenty to build real strength, add muscle, and lose fat. More is not always…
If you live in Redmond and you are tired of wandering into a gym, doing a few random machines, and hoping something happens, you are not alone. Most people do not need more willpower. They need a plan and someone in their corner making sure they do it right. Sasquatch Strength & Nutrition is right…
Most training programs pick one lane and stay in it. All heavy lifting, or all cardio, or all high-intensity classes. That gets you good at one thing and leaves gaps everywhere else. Real fitness is broader than that. You want to be strong, have staying power, move well, be explosive, and keep your engine healthy….
You built the career. You built the family. You show up for everyone who counts on you. And somewhere in the middle of all that, the guy in the mirror stopped matching the guy everywhere else in your life. Maybe you noticed it coaching your kid’s team. Maybe it was a photo, or a flight…

If you have looked into weight loss medication at all, you have run into two names: semaglutide and tirzepatide. They show up under brand names like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound. People use them interchangeably in conversation, but they are not the same drug, and the differences are worth understanding before you start. Here is…
Step on a regular scale and you get one number. It goes up, it goes down, and it tells you almost nothing about what is actually happening in your body. An InBody scan tells a much better story. It breaks your weight into muscle, fat, and water, so you can see whether the work you…
If you only understand one principle about getting stronger, make it this one. Progressive overload is the idea behind every good strength program, and it is the reason some people keep improving for years while others stay stuck. The concept is simple. Applying it well is where a coach earns their keep. What progressive overload…
GLP-1 medications like semaglutide have helped a lot of people lose significant weight. But the question we hear most often is the one that really matters: what happens when you stop? The honest answer is that without the right habits in place, a lot of the weight can come back. Here is why, and how…
If you are a woman over 40, strength training is one of the best things you can do for your body, and it is probably not what you think it is. This is not about getting bulky or spending hours doing cardio. It is about building muscle that protects your metabolism, your bones, and your…
