About Lani
Hi, I’m Lani Muelrath, aka ‘the Plant-Strong Fitness Expert’.
You can think of this website as your clearinghouse for info on how to bring a whole foods, plant-based diet and specific workout strategies together to give you success in achieving radiant health and fitness.
I’m known for helping you cut through fitness chaos and the clutter of ‘mythinformation’ (I just made that word up!) because it isn’t all that complex. When it comes to weight loss, it’s all about the food. When it comes to shaping your body, it’s all about muscle challenge. I specialize in helping women who struggle with their weight and energy transform their bodies. without hunger or exercising like a maniac.
I created my blog, the Body Transformation Formula™, Fit Quickies™, and the Woman’s Fitness Blueprint™ to help you do just that..
Perhaps the fastest way to get to know me is to watch a few of my video blogs or check out the archives of hundreds of articles on the blog here.
If you’re publishing something about me or just want to hear about me in the third person, here’s my official bio:
Lani Muelrath, M.A., CGFI, CPBN, has over 30 years of experience as a teacher, coach, and trainer. She has been a Guest Lecturer in Kinesiology at San Francisco State University, and has been awarded the Golden Apple Award for Excellence in Instruction. Lani also created and starred in my own CBS TV show, “Lani’s All-Heart Aerobics”, and is Healthy Living Examiner at examiner. com.
Lani is the Fitness Expert for Dr. John McDougall’s Health and Medical Center, Health and Fitness Lifestule Expert for Vegan Mainstream™, contributing Health & Fitness Columnist at Engine 2 Diet.com, and is Certified in Plant-Based Nutrition via Cornell University.
Lani overcame her own lifetime struggle with weight over 13 years ago when I lost 50 lbs, which she has maintained easily with the tools that she now coaches other women to be successful with weight loss, body shaping, and health.
Lani synergizes smart exercise, optimal nutrition, and mastery of psychology in realizing your body ideal.
