My Journey...
Plagued by a weight problem starting at 8 years of age, I grew up as an obese child. In fact, I weighed as much as 275 pounds with a 50-inch waist!
After graduation from high school, I went to college with a mission... to find out how to reverse the weight gain process.
The more I learned, the more weight I lost. Then, 50 pounds later, I chose to dedicate my life to health and exercise. Since that time, I have lost an additional 30 pounds of fat and increased my lean body mass (muscle) by 20 pounds.
Certified and Experienced...
I acquired my first personal training certification from the International Sports Sciences Association (ISSA) in 1995. Since then, I've earned certifications from the American Council on Exercise (ACE) and National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), as well as a dozen others in my pursuit of knowledge in fitness. And, today I continue to further my education through seminars and course work.
With my knowledge and experience I have been professionally working with clients for over 20 years.
Interestingly, at one point in my life I was "living to die." Now I am "dying to live!"
How about you?
