My Bio

My name is Laura Henry and I am the owner of InnerCore, Inc., a personal training business located in Campton Hills, IL. In addition to being a Certified Personal Trainer and a Specialist in Performance Nutrition, I am also a CPA.  I have been in the finance industry for over 10 years but my passion resides in helping others find balance in their lives.

For most of my life I have struggled with my weight. I had such an obsession with food that it stuffed the emotions of turmoil in my mind and buried it. Trouble is my outward appearance was a reflection of my inward struggles.
	
My before and after pictures can attest to that fact.  Twenty years ago I was 257 lbs. and miserable.  Today I am lean, healthy, and happy.  Because I understand what it feels like to be morbidly obese and then go on a continuum of yo-yo dieting for fifteen years, I am passionate about helping others achieve a fit and healthy lifestyle.

I never really knew what to eat, when to eat, how to workout.  I knew some things but I didn’t know how to put it together to reach my goals.  I thought the answer was to just workout hard, but I was doing that for 8 years and I was getting fatter. Why? Because I didn't understand the significant role that nutrition played in this. I was eating junk!  This is why balance is the key to success.

See it’s not about nutrition, fitness, or weight loss.  It is these things combined that create balance that allows you to move forward toward your goals.  It is a lifestyle change not a quick fix to fit into those size 8 jeans.  It is a transformation that will last a lifetime, not a moment in time.

I continue to move forward with my fitness goals as well as helping others achieve their own.
