I began my weight loss/get fit journey in February 2019; I joined Snap Fitness at 44th&France and started a low carb/high protein diet. I went to the club 6days/week, walking on the treadmill for @5 miles and circuit training. After a few months my progress slowed and I wasn’t gaining any muscle tone. I noticed Joe training another member on several occasions. I got his information, did my research and hired him immediately after our first consultation.
In four months time I went from over 30% body fat to 12.5% and gained a fit and muscular physique. Joe also helped me with my diet, still lower carbs but higher protein and a new vitamin regime. It’s helped me tremendously- strong hair, and nails, great skin, too! He also helped me with my sleep, I went from spending over 12 hours in bed each day to a healthy, great 7-8 hours, and track it daily. My fellow gym members and customers at my favorite restaurant positively comment on my transformation. Joe has asked me if I’d like to train for competition; not right now, but it’s an option! I frequently recommend Joe and hand out his business card and contact information-he’s not awarded the Best Personal Trainer in the city by accident, he’s all that and more!
I have been training with Joe for what will soon be two years. When I first began training, Joe’s recommendation of twice a week for 15 months seem insurmountable. Two years later, not only have I lost weight (75 pounds total), I have lost a total of 17% body fat and am now in single digits for the first time in my life. My strength continues to grow, and I’m finding more and more things I can achieve athletically. I have run several 5K races. I have become an avid cyclist. I spent this past summer commuting 35 miles round-trip on my bike, and have the legs to prove it! The best accomplishment so far, though, was when Joe and I completed our first Rugged Maniac obstacle course together this past September. I finished as one of the fastest in my 50+ age group because of his training and support the entire way.
With the New Year, and my desire to continue improving my fitness (well beyond the original 15 month target), I have increased my sessions to 3 times a week for the next several months. I’ve been inspired by not only what I have been able to achieve, but also with what Joe has accomplished with his own physical fitness. He stays in fantastic shape and lives a healthy lifestyle I want to emulate. He lives what he teaches, and that continues to be my biggest motivator in every aspect of my life.
I recommend anyone considering investing in a training program to consider calling Joe first. See for yourself what I’ve been able to experience first-hand; it is possible to live the healthiest and fittest life you can dream. You won’t be disappointed.
