New Habits
Starting any new habit can be exciting yet difficult. I witness this on a weekly basis with current and potential client. Some people say to successfully adopt a new habit that you must do it consecutively 20 times or for 30 days. My passion is coaching people at any fitness level to improve in order to reach their desired goals. I strongly encourage you to plan for your short and long term goals, while focusing on proper eating and intense exercise one day at a time. You can only be your best in the present, so give yourself a gift and complete your wellness wishlist and make the transition into the healthier person who you have invisioned.
Post workout chat
I was truly inspired and encouraged today by one of my clients (K.R.) . He shared with me how exercise has become his medicine of choice. He is such the avid proponent of incorporating fitness into your life. We shook our heads at how many people we interact with who often talk about starting/needing to workout. He vowed to continue to be an example of exercise can change your life. I was proud to hear that since we began working out in 2005 his Diabetes (Type II) is no longer detectable. His glucose and cholesterol levels have steadily improved and are now at normal healthy levels. K.R.’s strength has also improved. We both laughed as reflected on the first time we met and he was not able to do 2 push ups. Now he is bench pressing 205lbs and even doing walking push ups amongst a variety of other exercises that we do. His motivation and commitment come from his desire to live healthier than he ever has. K.R. told me that it has been worth it and the old 300lb K.R. is just a guy he sees in old photos.
