- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I have always been an active person but never had a consistent workout routine, I was always ÃÂjust happy & contentÃÂ with my body and weight. Between 2001 ÃÂ 2005 I had 3 children, all large at birth and all delivered via c-section. With each subsequent child I kept a few pounds on. By 2006 I was starting to push the limits with a size 10-12 pants and knew that if I did not do something & remain consistent with it I was going to go down a road that I did not want to be on. In December 2006, my neighbor asked me if I was interested in joining Weight Watchers with her. My response ÃÂSureÃÂ but I knew I was not committed. My diet was my main focus at this point - I started counting my points, watching my portions and choosing better food. I slowly started adding in walking around my development and then a few strength training exercises. By August 2007 I had lost 30 pounds, hit my lifetime goal with Weight Watchers and was fitting into a size 4 pants. In September 2007, I started researching more strength training & eating more clean food (all natural, not processed). Since then I have continued to work on building my muscle tone and maintaining my weight. I know that there are hundreds of people who have a very similar situation as I did as well as hundreds of frustrated people looking to lose weight and get in shape! This is why I followed my dream of becoming a Certified Personal Fitness Trainer and started Evolution Fitness. I will show you how to GET FIT and STAY FIT without having to belong to a gym or needing expensive exercise equipment.
- What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
Being a trainer involves understanding how the human body works but knowing that each body is different and it requires trial and error to find the right program for each person. That it takes commitment; both as the trainer and as the client. You have to WANT to make the change to your mind, body, lifestyle to see the transformation. It will not happen overnight, so don't throw in the towel when you do not see immediate progress.
