You can thank Chip and Joanna Gaines for farmhouse kitchens — or blame them, if you’re not fans! While this trendy kitchen style was a thing well before their show got popular (after all, the current-day style is based on historic homes), the couple’s signature Fixer Upper farmhouse vibe seems to be what everyone is craving these days. And with relatively good reason. It’s cozy, charming, and has that perfectly worn-in feeling that makes it ideal for families, cool couples, and every homeowner in between.

Not sure who Chip and Joanna Gaines are? They’re a married couple who run a remodeling and design business. They’re also the stars of HGTV’s widely popular show Fixer Upper, which gives a farmhouse look to basically every house in Waco, Texas.

In Houzz’s 2017 Kitchen Trends Study, millennial respondents (ages 25 to 34) named farmhouse kitchens their preferred style. According to the survey, with homeowners focusing on wanting more family time (49 percent) and more home cooking (41 percent), there’s a natural need for a space that can do double duty as a stylish spot to entertain and a family-friendly zone where cooking up weeknight meals is easy and seamless. Enter: farmhouse-style kitchens.

Warrior Fit Testimonials

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
