Success Story: Rachel
Published: 09/18/2016
25 year old Rachel first contacted me in May of this year. She had previously worked with a trainer but hadn't seen results. She told me that she wanted to lose body fat and gain muscle, improve her energy and improve the nutritional quality of her diet. We decided that a weekly in-person training session and a weekly nutrition session phone call would work well for her.
In addition to teaching her a strength training routine with dumbbells that she could do at home, she purchased a TRX system and I taught her several workouts that she could do for variety. She was inspired to lift weights more often by the knowledge of how much muscle is lost with dieting alone.
We recently completed a progress report and in 133 days she has lost 12.2 pounds, 5% body fat, almost 11 inches (3.75 inches from her abdomen alone), and increased her strength. As you can see from her pictures she is very toned. Doesn't she look great?!
Rachel is thrilled with her results. See her Yelp review here. She says that it was helpful to learn about a correct heart rate zone that would maximize the effectiveness of her workouts, make them more challenging, burn more calories and increase her fitness level. She also enjoys having several different weight training workouts that she can do at home.
