Thanks to Mark Hill and Lifestyle's Fitness I was able to lose more than 210 pounds in only 30 days....

 

ok here's the real story:

February, 2004

"It's all about improvement and small changes"; that's what my wife and I call my diet. A little over 2 years ago I decided to improve the quality of my life by trying to lose weight (at one time I tipped the scales at more than 400 pounds). I started by reducing the amount of food I ate and I also started substituting low calorie and low-fat foods wherever I could. I stopped eating red meat and I focused on eating fresh fruits, vegetables, chicken & fish.

After a few months, I realized that in order to be successful I also needed to exercise regularly. In the beginning, I could only exercise 5 minutes at a time on a stationary bike. After a few weeks I was able to exercise 24 minutes at a time. Since then I increase my intensity and time a little each month. I give myself one day off every week from my diet, but I have not missed a day of physical exercise in over 2 years. Currently, I exercise at least an hour every day either on a stationary bike or I ride my bicycle more than 21 miles (in addition to my fitness program at Lifestyles Fitness).

When I went to buy a new exercise bike a little over a year ago, the salesman recommended Mark Hill and Lifestyles Fitness to help me get in better shape. When I first met Mark Hill I told him that I didn't think I was in good enough shape to go to a personal trainer. Mark told me that personal training is for everyone and that he would customize a fitness program just for me. My fitness program at Lifestyles Fitness has a good balance of high intensity cardio exercise and weight lifting. Every week we have a different theme where we work on strength, endurance and building muscle along with burning fat.

I now realize that my fitness program at Lifestyles Fitness was the best investment that I have ever made in myself! Even though I was having good results on my own, my fitness program at Lifestyles Fitness has taken me to a higher level than I was able to achieve on my own. I am proud of my accomplishment losing more than 210 pounds and thanks in large part to Lifestyles Fitness my self image is better than it has ever been. The hardest part of any fitness program is getting started. Anyone can get the same results I have had if they stay focused and work on small changes, but if you really want results I would recommend Lifestyles Fitness to help you get in shape today!"
