2/3/2019 0 Comments February 03rd, 2019Congrats to one of my newest clients Alex Hall. He has done some amazing accomplishments since starting with me January 7th of this year. Alex is an ex vet who came to me driven, excited and sarcastic as all hell, he had a goal and was determined to make these goals into results, he trusted me to help him do just that for him. When I first met this dude, I was nervous as fuck, because he is a hard ass for sure.. & I wasn't sure what would come of it, but since then I've learned he has a huge heart and has experienced life in ways that have made me more humble after learning more about him. I'm so proud to announce that he has lost 15lb , close to 2% body fat and his BMI decreased as well since having me train him.
He's always willing to do whatever workout I set out for him to and he pushes himself to finish and always gives it his all. He came to me with lower back pain, couldn't manage a pull up, and used the lowest possible platform to do step ups, and struggled with planks. NOW.. this dude can do 5 reps of pull ups, can use the next size platform for step ups, his planks are close to 30seconds, and his lower back pain is hardly an issue when training with me (also me working with his physical therapist to help this) I'm so proud of you dude. Again, because I'm proud of my clients accomplishments and how far they have come, I'm giving away a gift card of his choice to him. One thing that stuck with me today was when Alex told me "you keep me coming to the gym, I get so amped working with you" like that made me feel like a superhero, so thank you! Long story short. I took a video with his permission of some of the workouts he did today.

2/3/2019 0 Comments Congrats to Jessica!One of my clients Jessica has been with me since the beginning of January and her last session before deciding to sign up with me again was January 31st. Jessica started off a timid, not really sure of herself, with anxiety but eager to learn new exercises and the goal of wanting to lose weight but put on some muscle at the same time. She came to me with a positive attitude but with issues with nutrition, body image and confidence. I wanted to let Jessica know she was in good hands with me, that I wanted her to meet her goals & that I would help her do so, not to mention, I had a plan for her to build her confidence back up and feel better about herself and what she is capable of. The last session she really exploded with power, confidence, pushing herself and really shown an improvement in her overall performance. I am so happy for her and what all she has conquered during her own journey, I am looking forward to continuing work with her and see great things in her future if she continues to strive for her best. I am awarding my client Jessica with a giftcard for her efforts because she has come a long way, I want to keep her excited about health & fitness and continue to cheer her on as she meets more goals and accomplishments. Everyone give Jessica a HUGE congrats! Thanks Jessica for your hard work!

Within the last week, I decided that I would submit a workout/article to Muscle&Strength. Many of you are unaware of my writing profession, but I have been a fitness/health blogger for 3 years now, and my first big break was when the chief editor of Muscle&Fitness magazine (Shawn Perine) got a hold of me to submit an article to be published on in their magazine (he has since passed away) but since that day, I had been eager to start having my writing published by different fitness publications and decided to once again take the dive -- well it all worked out in my favor when I got an email back from Muscle&Strength letting me know they were interested in my content and will be set to have it published in May of this year! What does this mean? it means my workout inspired by all my clients will be set to be published by a well known online workout and fitness supplement company this May & it means I will have the attention of many fitness professionals, athletes and basically worldwide interaction -- which could lead to bigger opportunities down the line. This is very exciting for me and I feel blessed beyond blessed & when this publishes, I will be sharing it on all my social media platforms including this website (and adding it to my resume as well) -- I just wanted to say thank you to any and everyone who has been more than supportive of my writing and work ethic. This was a long time coming. Thank you.
