Background

When I Started: Sep 2007
HOW I STARTED:

Started with football workouts in high school, then started to lift for health and lean muscle mass instead of just size training after going to Basic Training in the summer of '07. Became fully certified through ISSA in January 2009

WHY I LOVE IT:

It's a great release after a hard day of classes/work

New Nation-wide Award!!!

Posted in Training  :  Dec 28, 2010 9:56pm
Today, April 29th 2010, I have been named Personal Training Center's Nation-Wide Feature Personal Trainer of the Day!!!!  http://personaltrainercentral.blogspot.com/2010/04/personal-trainers-in-whitman.html

12 Weeks Out, 8 Weeks In

Posted in Training  :  Dec 28, 2010 9:56pm

A loss of a full percent! Notonly that either, but my weight maintained itself completel...
