    Robert Saalfeld never cooked. A few months back, before he began Courthouse Nutrition, Robert was asked by Fitness Coach Sarah Rossi what would be his “go-to-meal” if he were at home and needed to eat. “I looked her in the face,” Robert says, “and told her, I’d just go to Subway.

    Imagine Everything has a beginning. Fitness has its beginning in the imagination. When we think about what we want to do next, what’s coming up in the future, we work to turn our imagination into our reality. Think of what you imagined yourself doing when you were a kid.
