      <image:title>What is HRV? - Parasympathetic State (rest and digest )</image:title>
      <image:caption>A healthy heart, at rest, does not beat in perfect rhythm. During the rest and digest state, our hearts should beat out of rhythm. Example: Beat……………Beat…....Beat…………...Beat……Beat………..... Beat….Beat The more variability of time between each beat, the more relaxed or parasympathetic state we are in (Meditation, rest and digest). Also, the higher our HRV, this is good during times of rest!</image:caption>

      <image:title>What is HRV? - Sympathetic state (Fight or flight)</image:title>
      <image:caption>During states of emotional stress and intense movement our sympathetic system (fight or flight mode) kicks in and our heart beats more in rhythm. Example: Beat.…Beat….Beat....Beat….Beat….Beat….Beat The more rhythmic our hearts are, the more sympathetic state we are in (Fight or flight, high stress). With a wearable like WHOOP, we can now measure this biomarker and tailor a program designed specifically for the individual struggling with stress and an underutilized parasympathetic system/vagal tone. Take our quick 5 min quiz to see if your “Fight or flight” system is overactive!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Stop guessing at what you need to train, and know now by assessing: AMR Understand how your body uses fat vs carbs at certain intensities, your breathing efficiency, and how to change your physiology to reach your genetic potential. RMR Your resting metabolic rate quantifies how many calories you burn at rest during the day. Measuring the gases you breathe we can assess your caloric needs.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Who We Are - Why We're Different</image:title>
      <image:caption>At FP Fitness, our objective is to help individuals maximize their performance. Whether it’s on the field or in the office, when humans can operate at their genetic potential, the sky's the limit. Poor sleep, malnutrition and inappropriate training can severely imbalance our nervous system. This damage is slow and gradual but compounds over time, often going unnoticed. Our job is to expose the root of this detrimental cycle and facilitate sustainable change. Designing training regimens, correcting breathing pattern disorders and improving dysfunctional sleep schedules are the main areas of focus for our clients. We want your nervous system working for you, not against you. The body’s issues are rarely one-dimensional. Our coaches understand this and approach every issue with an open mind, while keeping you in the loop the entire way.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Who We Are - Meet Rick Crampton</image:title>
      <image:caption>Rick is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and graduate of Springfield College with a BS in Exercise Science. For the past 20 years, Rick has worked in sports performance, a cardiac rehab facility and most recently a personal trainer helping people move and age without pain. However, educating others is Rick’s true passion. Researching and sharing digestible information to help others is what motivates him every day. Growing up with dyslexia and ADHD, he understands the challenges of learning that has taught him patience and empathy to facilitate the learning process. Educating through sound principles, he helps clients learn in a clear manner by simplifying complex concepts in a practical way.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Metabolic Assessments</image:title>
      <image:caption>Everything is connected. The more scientists research, the more validation comes from this message. At First Principles Fitness, our two assessments combine psychology and physiology. Simply put, your brain behaves with your physical capabilities and the phenomenon that straddles both - your breath. How you breathe = how you perform. Physically or cognitively, proper breathing is essential for performance. Both our fitness and metabolic tests assess the client's respiration, using a spirometer that's a clinically-proven accurate medical device. The gathered data is important for diagnosing any mechanical breathing pattern limitation that may exist. Functional respiration is crucial for nervous system balance and athletic performance. Through testing, analytics, and interpretation of your body's respiration, you'll gain an understanding of the effects that your breath has on the autonomic nervous system and skeletal muscular function.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>What do the following all have in common - posture, cardiovascular performance, anxiety, chronic pain and sleep? Breath!
