    I believe most fitness options on the market are great for people who are already very fit, but not properly formatted for those who are new to fitness, returning from an injury, have poor flexibility, or just getting back into shape. This leads to unnecessary pain, stress, and burnout. While soreness can be expected, your workout should not leave you debilitated for the rest of the day (or week). It should provide an adequate stimulus for change, using exercises and equipment appropriate for your ability, specifically targeting your weaknesses and gradually progressing as you gain fitness. You should feel a sense of accomplishment the end of a workout, not weak or inadequate. This does not mean easy, you will still be challenged.

    I am fully committed to helping you reach YOUR goals, not mine. If your goal is improved health and well-being, I’m not going to put you on a scale each week (but if your only goal is to lose 10 pounds this month, you can count on it). If you’re a vegetarian, I won’t try to persuade you to eat paleo. In fact, I don’t encourage any specific diet for anybody. The truth is – most diet and exercise programs can work for anybody. The key is that you must enjoy it, believe in it, and be consistent. The most important factor in achieving your goal is consistency, and the fastest way to become inconsistent is to do workouts you don’t like, don’t understand, and that are geared towards results you didn’t want in the first place. Everyone has different reasons to exercise, and my job is to create a plan that works best for you.
