In August of 2007 I weighed 262 pounds and stand 5’ 8”
tall. I wore a size 38 pants and had to squeeze into them.
It wasn’t a pretty sight to say the least. I knew I had to
change something in my life and decided that exercise was
the answer. In December of 2007 I became a member of
Anytime Fitness.
That is when I met CJ of USA Elite Trainers, who was getting
ready for a body building competition. I knew right then,
that was what I wanted to do. CJ convinced me to get into
the “Total Body Challenge” competition that they were doing
at the gym and it was fantastic. He helped all of us
understand the whys of what we were doing, went over
nutrition and supplements. Not just telling us what we
should do but explaining why we were doing it. That made a
huge difference in how I was thinking about fitness.
Thanks to CJ and the other trainers in the gym, I am now 177
pounds and wearing a size 30 jeans AND I am training for my
first body building competition. I have had some health
issues that have subsided due to the nutritional guidance I
have received from CJ. I am also studying to become a
personal trainer. This life switch is due mainly to the
dedication and passion I see through CJ on a daily basis.
It is a passion that I now have in my life and I thank him
greatly.
Even if you are not completely out of shape, CJ and all the
trainers with USA Elite Trainers are a great source of
knowledge to keep your health and well being on the right
track.
