As a personal trainer I try to keep your program realistic to your lifestyle. There is no shortcut to get to your goals. No yellow brick road, just hard work. Sometimes people don't like working out at all or even cooking. To get to an individuals goal we need to find out which actually works for them and their lifestyle. Finding types of workouts or routines they enjoy doing and even finding healthier food choices from cooking or even eating out. You shouldn't want a program for that moment.
Lets start new lifestyle habits that you can actually commit to.

Soup is an awesome trainer and motivator. He's constantly changing up my workout so that my body doesn't get complacent. The weight is coming off faster than I thought it would. I highly recommend hiring Soup as your trainer.

Soup is a very dedicated trainer who goes out of his way to help his clients succeed. He's always available for nutrition or workout advice outside of scheduled training sessions and even provides personalized incentives to reach your goals. The gym itself can be very loud, and sometimes lacks privacy for sessions. Even though the building may seem a little dingy on the outside, the inside is always very clean and well-equipped. Overall, I've had a great experience! I would highly recommend Soup to everyone I know.

Soup was such a joy to work out with!!! I looked forward to our workouts at the end of the day. He made the experience fun, and encouraged me and educated me throughout the process. He cares about his clients and takes the time to get to know them individually. One of the things I appreciated the most about working out with Soup was his focus on safety right at the beginning and testing my skills levels and flexibility instead of just throwing me into a workout routine. For me that was important b/c I was new to working out and with a less experienced or more "results-driven" trainer I could've easily ended up with injuries. Overall, I loved working out with Soup and would highly recommend him to anyone whose looking for a trainer.

Soup was an awesome person to train with! If I hadn't moved away from the area, I would still being going to him. I would hit him up at random times for help with deciding appropriate food options. And he was extremely flexible with my rotating work schedule. Once I moved, I tried other trainers, but it just wasn't the same.
Soup is definitely one of a kind. I chose him as a trainer because when I first met him I liked his vibe. He's got a great personality, so all those grueling workout sessions were more than bearable. They were actually fun -- despite all the sore muscles! Even when I was struggling through a workout session, I was still always laughing. I can be stubborn, and he was very patient with me in finding ways to incorporate the foods I like with his nutritional plan. And I absolutely noticed results when I followed his plan of action!
If you're willing to put in the effort and you want a motivating trainer who talks to you like a friend, I HIGHLY recommend Soup! I've encouraged friends and colleagues to go to him because he honestly cares about helping you reach your goals, and you'll leave every session energized and motivated to keep going. He definitely sets the bar high.
