30-Day Christian Fitness & Weight Loss Immersion with Personal Coaching in Las Vegas

This retreat is a structured, results-driven weight loss and fitness immersion that has been operating since 2008, originally as Live-in Fitness. Guests live in an upscale private residence, away from public gyms and crowds. Daily programming includes up to three or four hours of exercise, which may include outdoor training in the cool desert air, strength training with free weights, biking, and yoga or mobility work. Each day also includes hands-on meal preparation using whole foods provided by the host, teaching guests how to fuel their bodies properly.

What sets this retreat apart is its privacy and level of personal attention. With a maximum of three guest rooms, guests receive semi-private training that is adjusted to their personal ability, whether they are a beginner or a seasoned athlete. The host, Debra Stefan, lives in the residence and is present throughout the stay, providing constant guidance and coaching. She is a USPA Powerlifting Coach, a world record holder, an ERYT-500 certified yoga instructor, and the 2020 Educator of the Year from the League of American Bicyclists.

The location is a private community on a golf course overlooking the Las Vegas Valley and the Strip, with access to a quarter-mile scenic paved trail. The retreat is ideal for individuals weighing up to 500 lbs, and has hosted clients from 18 to 81 years old, including those using GLP-1 medications under physician supervision. Guests often come from overseas—places like Saudi Arabia, Australia, and Norway—seeking a focused environment for significant life changes.

A typical day might start early with a workout on the outdoor patio facing the mountain range, followed by a biking session on the nearby trail. Afternoons might be spent on strength training, learning proper techniques with kettlebells, dumbbells, and barbells. Evenings conclude with stretching, guided relaxation, and goal visualization. One guest preparing for Marine Corps active duty noted the sled pushes, mountain bike climbs, and summit hikes, while another appreciated learning how to prepare meals with real food and give thanks for them. The environment is controlled, non-clinical, and focused on measurable progress, aiming to replace old habits with a structured lifestyle that can be maintained at home.
