Derek and I met at a West St. Louis County Chamber of Commerce meeting last year. I’m always intrigued when someone owns a gym. Derek didn’t disappoint!
Listen here to our StoryCorps interview as Derek and I discuss health, fitness, and the science behind it all. Derek Hoffman: Ignite Performance and Health – StoryCorps Archive
Ignite Performance and Health is a concierge strength training, coaching, and medical clinic. They believe in changing habits, teaching people how to recomposition their bodies, build muscle and burn fat, increase longevity, and live happier, healthier lives. The medical clinic is integrated into everything they do. Ignite prides itself on being holistic, considering many variables for success.
Using medications as accelerators, Ignite creates a habit change program. Ignite believes that when clients feel quick wins and see results, they also can get over the hump that might have been bothering them for a long time. There’s a combination, a formula and its data driven. It’s also individualized for all clients.
“It’s all about how we look and feel and how our clothes fit. Weight is ONE statistic we use to track a much more complicated set of data. If you are losing weight while gaining muscle-you are doing something different for your body. The more muscle you have on your body, the more you can eat! In addition, lean muscle mass increases bone density. This is the difference between a bruise and a break.”
The Ignite philosophy: Longevity! Which can include self-care, self-love, and healthy self-esteem.
