Whitney’s Weight Loss Success! From 28.7% Body Fat to 10% and 1st Place Figure Competitor!

Whitney Shed 18% Body Fat in 18 Weeks and Won her First Figure Competition!

Whitney has a story that hits home with a lot of women. She was active all of her life, very involved with sports and never had to worry about her weight, but then once “real” life settles in, things start to change, a couple pounds of weight gain turns into a few more pounds and before you know it, you no longer recognize the reflection in the mirror.

When Whitney and I first met, she was interested in Figure competing, it was something she had thought about for a while, but just wasn’t sure where to start or how to get there. I told her that the journey would be a tough one, but that whenever she was ready to take that leap of faith I’d be happy to help her. I saw a lot of myself in Whitney, her story reminded me of my own, I remembered how it felt to feel out of control of my own body and not quite sure how to get it back to where I wanted it.


Whitney’s journey began on March 3, 2010, she weighed in at 149.6 and had body fat of 28.7%. She had chosen a show that was in July so our journey had to begin immediately to get her to 10% body fat in order to step on stage and compete! I couldn’t have asked for a more dedicated client, Whitney followed my instructions to a T, and her body started changing immediately. Every week she was leaner and leaner, we started seeing more and more muscle definition and I could see her confidence growing on a regular basis as she told me about the many compliments that she was now receiving.

On the day of her final photo shoot, which was two days prior to her competition, Whitney weighed in at 126 pounds and 10% body fat, goal achieved!! Along the way, we discovered that this girl has some  phenomenal abs!! She competed in Springfield, MO on July 17, 2010, her very first show, and walked away with not one but TWO first place finishes in two Figure Divisions!! With a taste of success under her belt, Whitney is hungry for me, I can’t see what the future has in store for her as she continues to take on the world of competition!! Congratulations Whitney, super proud of you!

WHITNEY’S STORY

“Diana has given me the tools for a healthier and happier life. Five months ago I was the heaviest I’d ever been and very unhappy with myself. I’ve always been an active person; I played completive sports all through high school and every intramural sport possible in college. I’ve always loved working out and somehow got off track which caused me to gain a few pounds and then a few a more.  After noticing the weight gain I kept telling myself I’d get back on track next week but the weeks turned to months.  Finally I didn’t want to look at myself in the mirror anymore and was becoming depressed, I thought back to why I used to work out all the time and what had kept me motivated in the past. I realized I was always training for something. I had played with the idea of becoming a figure competitor all through college since I was no longer involved in competitive sports, I mentioned the idea to Diana and she jumped all over it never doubting me and said she could help, which surprised me because I wasn’t in my “normal” shape.

I started with Diana in the beginning of March and by July I surpassed my “normal” good shape and reached the best shape I’ve ever been in, a kind of shape I never thought was possible. Throughout the last four months Diana has helped me with my Diet, my biggest problem, as well as my workouts. The first weeks were the most difficult and frustrating because I knew I was capable of so much more. I learned that my body wasn’t what it used to be but if I pushed it would come back. I followed Diana’s instruction said pushed through until the workouts got a little easier and my weight and body fat began to drop. Eventually I started to feel like myself again. Diana continued to push me harder than anyone has helping me pass any kind of “good” shape I had gotten myself into in the past.

Today I’m so much happier than I was in March. I hardly recognize the before picture and don’t ever want to see it again! I placed first in my first figure competition and plan on continuing to compete in the future.  My friends and family can even see that I’m happier than I’ve been in a long time, and the change has motivated then to start working out as well. My dad has lost over 30 ponds and my mom has lost over 15.  All I have left to say is thanks to Diana for helping me get the body I have always wanted!!!!”

AMAZING!!!!!!!

When Josh came in day 1 I remember thinking this kid has no idea how much his life is going to change.  I cannot tell you enough of how proud of you I am Josh.  You didnt cheat on one meal from oct. 15th 2009- june 15th 2010, The only meal he cheated on was one i told him to eat because i wanted to show him how one meal could change his workout for a positive if looking to increease strength so the night before leg day I had him eata a pizza.  Sure enough he comes in the next day and destroyed his prior record of 500 lbs for 100 reps by over 1 minute.  He understood after that how food is your fuel and you use it for your health and your strength.  Eating pizza all the time is not a good option, but when your trying to add size on and become stronger adding some different foods in came greatly help.  Throughout his journey I had him eating very balanced, lean meats, veggies good carbs, he cut every negative thing out of his life, he quit drinking, quit partying, he became structured within his lifestyle.  This is a story and a transformation that will blow you away.  It almost looks too good to be true or fake/photoshopped, I assure you the pics are real, the videos are real, this guy worked so hard and lived it everyday from the first day i met him.  You want to look and feel like this then you have to LIVE AND TRAIN like this.  Major props to you.  Josh will be competing at the wbff world championships in sept 2010 and is also in the middle of getting his certification to become a Hitch Fit Trainer!!!  Josh is like family to us now as are all of our clients.  You see this is more then just teaching someone how to look good, this is about making relationships, friendships and changing someone life for the better. 

Also LADIES.. THIS MAN IS SINGLE.  Through his transformation he put his love life on hold to get himself 100% in everyway.  He is a great guy and looking for that good hearted fitness chick to complete him :)   I had to do it JOSH , lol!!!!!

My story starts in October 2009, as a guy who was living the complete opposite of the 3 key components in the Hitch Fit system.  I think the easiest way to describe myself back then was your typical guy you see at most sports bars.  I was drinking alcohol, eating the worst foods possible, staying out late, making poor choices and not working out at all. I was in terrible shape, felt lethargic and all around unhappy with the direction of my life. All of that was about to change the first day I walked into Hitch Fit to meet Micah.

I had my “ah-ha” moment one day just looking in the mirror.  I was so disappointed that I had let myself go and never reached any of my goals or aspirations.  I always wanted to be ripped like the guys you see in magazines, movies or even MMA fighters.  I would always tell myself one day it’ll happen, but I never did anything about it.  I decided that day looking in the mirror that I was going to change my life and do everything I’ve ever dreamt of.

 I found Micah online and started following him on Facebook.  As I looked through his transformations, specifically Jared’s, I knew this was the place I needed to be.  I emailed Micah and within an hour he had responded to me.  I was probably the easiest person ever to sign up for a program.  I pretty much just confirmed everything and told him I needed a 16 week program.  Within a couple weeks I started my transformation.

The first day I arrived I met both Micah and Diana, which was surreal for me since I’d seen all their videos online and felt like I knew them even though I’d never met them before.  After discussing the program in more detail and what my goals were from the transformation, we checked my body fat and took before pictures.  The first workout was an eye opening experience!  I knew I was out of shape, but had no clue how bad it was.  Within the first ten minutes I was exhausted, but I kept fighting through the pain.  Little did I know then, but the burn from the workouts would never stop.  The most challenging day with Micah is definitely leg day.  He would break me mentally about every 3-4 weeks, but I came back stronger each time.

I think the best advice Micah gave me throughout my transformation was to cut out all the negatives in my life that wouldn’t help me reach my goals.  We did this by focusing on the three keys to the Hitch Fit system:  Nutrition, Fitness and Lifestyle.  Micah made me a custom meal plan that was awesome!  It was all healthy foods that tasted great too.  It was completely balanced and I was able to eat every 2-3 hours.  The fitness aspect was challenging. Micah would push me way past the point where I wanted to quit.   I swear some of the most difficult exercises were with no weight at all.  The final part was lifestyle changes.  I obviously had a lot of work to do on this part.  I stopped the late night partying and drinking.  I found that I liked spending my Friday nights at the gym!  For me, my success was simply about being 100% committed to these three components.

Josh’s Insane Hill Workout

About a month into everything I started a transformation contest to help keep me motivated.  I thought I had a good chance of winning and asked Micah if it was ok to train with him all the way until June.  He was all for it.  He told me I could get my body fat in the 5% range by then.  I couldn’t see it myself, but I believed him.  That might be the best part of having him as a trainer……I trusted him 100%.  He’s very sincere and cares about the transformation just as much as the client.  As my transformation ended I found out that I made the top 20 out of 7000 contestants for the contest.  Now I’m waiting to see if I have won the whole thing!  I couldn’t have done it without Hitch Fit!


Going into my transformation I wanted a major visual change.  As I leave Hitch Fit as a client, I got that, but I feel so much better than I ever have too.  I wake up in the morning with so much energy and am a happy person.  There is no better feeling than being healthy and in shape.  It’s hard to describe, but once you get there, you understand what everyone means when they say that.

Throughout my transformation at Hitch Fit I became good friends with Micah, Diana, James, Glen and Stephanie.  They are all awesome people and great trainers.  I would recommend anyone wanting to get in great shape and feel better about themselves to join Hitch Fit.  Make sure that you are 100% committed to this process and the results will come!

Training at Hitch Fit was such an amazing experience.  The positive atmosphere is evident right when you walk in the door.  It’s so good in fact that I am currently working on my training certification and will soon be training clients at Hitch Fit myself!  Micah asked me if I’d like to train and the answer was obviously “YES!”  It’s a huge honor to be asked and I can’t wait to train lots of clients and help them get their life back just like I did!

Mary drops over 25 lbs of Fat and 16% bodyfat… Inside Out Looking Great!!!

Marys story is such an amazing one.  She overcame so much adversity and stuck to the plan all the way through.  I remember her coming in day one and it took nearly 10 minutes for her to take her shirt off to take the before pics.  She was not happy with where she was at and inside was just as bad.  She wanted change and I was 100% confident that change was going to happen.  I take different approaches with different clients.  With Mary I was very straight forward and told her that the choices she had made over the past 2-3 years had caused her to become FAT.  Even though her scale weight was not overweight in most peoples mind 35% of her body was Fat which put her in the obese category.  Too many people focus on scale weight to determine success and health, bodyfat is what is important.  So 1 I tell her YOUR FAT but i knew it was the fire she needed to prove me wrong and change that.  Through her transformation she dropped 25 lbs of fat, almost 16% bodyfat, 5 1/4″ off her belly and 4″ off her hips.  Mary is only 5’2″ and finished at 112 lbs from 135lbs. 

Mary Im so proud of your hard work.  everything that I told you about how i felt about your transformation and what you did was 100% truth, its inspiring what you did and when you left i knew that you would continue living this lifestyle forever.. Your the best!!!!!

“You’re fat, but I will make you fit”-Micah LaCerte

 These are the words that echo in my mind every time I think about how my journey began at Hitchfit. There I was, the heaviest I had ever been and at one of the lowest points of my life when I heard these words from a perfect stranger. I hope my story encourages, motivates and allows for no more excuses to those contemplating transforming their bodies and lifestyle. To those of you whose lives consist of literally doing things for everyone else around you…stop…and take care of you!! And although it was a gift to myself…it is truly the best gift I have ever given.

   

So, day one, I walked into the gym, conservatively dressed and with every piece of skin covered. Micah, whom I’ve known for all of…hmmm…5 mintues, tells me to take my shirt off so he could take my before pictures. “You have got to be out of your mind,” was seriously my first thought. I didn’t want to take my clothes off for anyone I knew, let alone someone I didn’t know. And in all seriousness and as calm as he could, Micah said, “This is the first step in completely trusting me.” So, I listened to him, dropped my t-shirt, but quickly picked up my sweatshirt to cover myself just one more time before being completely vulnerable to the fact that I was fat and needed help getting fit.

My transformation is different from recent stories in that, I am not a mother trying to get my pre-baby body back. I do not have a husband or a busy/hectic lifestyle. It is just me and so I really have no good excuses as to why I allowed myself to become so unhealthy. I promise you, I wish I had something I could blame it on. But, my unhealthy habits began, 2 ½ years ago with the choice to quit smoking. Ironic I know, but while managing to kick one nasty, visible to everyone, type habit, I had unknowingly picked up another one not as easily recognizable as cigarettes…food!  In the past, I  had not attributed smoking a cigarette to dealing with a stressful situation in my life, but when I didn’t have one light up and something stressful happened, I went for food…of any kind… to make me feel better or to ease my anxiety. So, my food-comforting habits spiraled out of control when my father passed, I had a broken engagement, and suffered a miscarriage in a very short amount of time. Emotionally, I was a mess and the inner turmoil was so much more than what I allowed people to see. Food and soda always put a smile on my face and rarely let me down.

 

Then, I saw my girlfriend Gwen, who had recently had a baby in June 2009. She looked fabulous before baby and looked fabulous while pregnant. But when I saw her at her birthday party in November, I thought she looked amazing…”not for just having a baby” as is customarily said to women who give birth…but plain and simple she looked amazing! After she gave me her transformation explanation,  my hesitation didn’t come from what I had listened to about the dieting or the working out…it was committing to doing something for myself because as I said earlier, I had never made me a priority in life. So, we partied and drank at the birthday party and I put out of my mind what my friend Gwen had said and for that matter what she looked like…right?

Then Thanksgiving rolled around and my nephew said to me…”Aunt Mary, you are pleasantly plump.” And as I stared at him, my cold as ice stare, my mother followed up his comment with, “Well, sis, it’s not like you’re ugly fat…”

Still, my “ah-ha” moment didn’t come until right after Christmas time when I decided that 2010 was going to be my year…because I was going to make it my year. I contacted my girlfriend Gwen again, who said, “Don’t do it if you’re not serious.” And then I called my girlfriend, Ashlie, who had just started the transformation process. She, too, had just had a baby, and raved about how wonderful she felt.

Fortunately for me and this process, I have a “rule-follower” type personality and am very routine based, so when Micah told me to do something, I just did it. The first month went as slow as molasses, however, when I learned that I had lost 4.66% body fat in one month and I was no longer obese…I was pumped!!!!! There was nothing going to get me down. I went from doing the elliptical 30 minutes a day to running 6-7 days a week, 7 miles a day. I found a “high” in challenging myself and accomplishing new goals. I was tooling along, losing weight, losing body fat, feeling in complete control of my achievements. And then, such is life…a couple of bumps occurred during the process. I had an allergic reaction to some medication that caused hives on the bottoms of my feet, I had to be out of town for work for a couple of weeks and I ended yet another relationship. I thought for certain, I would resort back to my old ways of relying on food to make me feel better. But, with encouragement from friends, family and Micah, I focused in on what I had learned thus far in the transformation. I exercised to relieve stress and low and behold…it made me feel better!!!! I was finally at a turning point, where food was no longer the sole source of my happiness.

 

Then I pulled a muscle…or so I thought week 11. I was at a point, where I could see the end. I had planned for a 16 week transformation and I had five weeks left. I had a “whoo-hoo” attitude and was ready for the transformation process to end and begin the new challenge of being on my own, holding myself accountable. But, the pulled muscle never went away, the pain just continued to get worse. I couldn’t lift my leg without picking it up with my hands, let alone run any more on it. So, long story short, I ended up on crutches with a stress fracture in my femur. I was devastated!!!! The medical instruction was no weight bearing activity for 6 weeks, so I was certain I would have to stop training.  After talking with Gwen and Micah, it was decided…I would change my 16 week transformation goal to 20 weeks and concentrate on arms while my leg healed. I hobbled around the gym on my pink, faux-gem, bedazzled crutches while Micah accommodated the situation with creative workouts. Staying positive was the only way to persevere…and as the saying goes, “Fall seven times and stand up 8.”  I remember one day going into the gym and hearing about the push-up competition between the women. My instinct initially was that there’s no way I could participate. It’s amazing what one can accomplish when you tell yourself “I can” rather than “I can’t.” Maybe I would have been able to do more if I had had two legs, but the achievement wasn’t about the amount of push-ups, it was about not making excuses. You see, I had a temporary disadvantage, but I was not disabled.

The irony of overcoming this leg obstacle was the thing that had control of me when I started the transformation process became the only thing I could control…I had to control what I ate or I would not continue to lose weight. I fully comprehended now what Micah had been telling me all along…diet, diet, diet. So, from week 11 to week 16, I was not able to participate in fat-burning cardio like running or the elliptical. I controlled what I ate and focused on my arm workouts. Then week 16, I began swimming morning and night to get my cardio workouts in because it was low impact on my joints. My misdiagnosed stress fracture turned into having bone deterioration of my ankles, hips and lower lumbar. So, I was cleared from the doctors to do swimming and only tolerable leg workouts. So, the last 3-4 weeks, Micah was creative in the Tabata and the infamous red hill!!!!! Without cardio or leg workouts, I still lost from week 11 to week 20, 15 pounds of fat and 9% body fat. Eating properly is key during any weight loss/fat loss/getting in shape regimen, but it was crucial for me during my transformation.

The benefits of the transformation process are far beyond the outer appearance. Micah equipped me with such a strong educational foundation about food, cardio, and weight lifting that is specific to me that I will never be what I was five months ago. I truly am a more positive person and the word “happy” can’t describe the way I feel. But, I am happy all the time…seriously all the time.

Micah, thank you for believing in me before I did, thank you for inspiring me to be better and for being one of the most genuine people I have known. You have an amazing gift and I will forever be grateful for this experience. It has truly changed me…thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me have a better life.

See how this 34 Year Old Mother got her Hot Bikini Model Body

I am so proud of Brandi for what she accomplished. Brandi started at 38.7% Bodyfat which is only 1.3% away from being Morbidy Obese, even though her bodyweight wasn’t majorly overweight her body was made up of amost 40% fat.   For her to drop her bodyfat to under 20%, its just AMAZING.. she  turned her life around 100% now being in a  bikini/athletic range of bodyfat.   What she did body wise was very amazing but how she changed inside is what really hit home for me.  I know how important it is for herself and her family for the rest of her life.  I also know that she can now teach those around her that they can do it too.  This mother is now looking like a Bikini Model and So confident that she can take on anything that presents itself.  Im crossing my fingers but hopefully will encourage her to step on stage as a Diva Bikini Model for the Wbff in the future.  We will see!!!!

 Brandi.. Clients like you are why I do what I do.  All that I ever ask is  live as active and healthy as possible for the rest of your life.  I am very proud of you and wish you nothing but happiness for the rest of your life.

Brandi’s Inspirational Car Wreck- Its was Fate

My story with Micah begins and ends with tears. I am a mother, a wife, a business owner, and a friend to many.  But before I met Micah, I felt very empty inside – even though my outside surroundings were full and vibrant.

The love of my life, Ty, was born in May 2005.  With this brand new person in my life, I became overwhelmed with responsibility.  How in the world could I keep it all together?  I owned a business, I had laundry to do, and a baby who needed my attention all the time, I had a husband who got put on the back-burner for everything because I simply didn’t have time to make him feel important, I had friends I barely spoke to (and lost) because I didn’t take time for them either, and did I mention laundry???  So officially in May of 2005, I became the happiest person in the world because of my son.  Unfortunately, at the same time, my eating habits and lifestyle were spinning out of control and I became very unhappy inside.  (*note my weight right after giving birth to Ty was around 130-135 pounds).

Fast forward four years.  It is Winter 2009.  My weight is now around 155-160 pounds (sometimes possibly pushing165 pounds).  What in the world happened over 4 years that made me gain so much weight?  I can tell you exactly.  It was excuses.  I am too busy!!!  So I got McDonalds for breakfast (or totally skip breakfast in some cases), had Taco Bell for lunch, and carry-out Applebee’s for dinner….EVERYDAY!   I had so much work to do – there was no way I was going to make time to exercise.  Lord, I felt I barely had time to breathe let alone pop in one of my many unopened exercise DVD’s to get in a workout.  Excuses, excuses, excuses…   

My friend Gwen, (a former client/transformation of Micah’s) (http://hitchfit.com/micahhitchfit-com/2009/12/30/before-afters/gwen/), came over to my house shortly after she finished her transformation…and she looked amazing!  She had recently had a baby and lost a lot of weight and had this beautiful glow about her.  I asked her what her “secret” was – thinking that I would run off to the store the minute she left and buy the magic pill she had been taking.  Gwen told me her success came from a personal trainer named Micah.  She had been seeing him to help her lose weight and he was teaching her how to eat.  Gwen was my little angel that stepped into my life at probably one of the lowest points of my life.  She gave me Micah’s information and off to the internet I went to look at his website and I started setting up my appointments. 

January 5, 2010.  My workouts with Micah began.  I cried that morning.  I didn’t think I could possibly workout and be successful.  However, through my journey I found out that Micah’s heart is stronger than any other muscle on his body.  He is probably one of the most caring people I know because of how compassionate he is about your life.  From day one, he saw right through me…he knew I was hurting – and took his time during my transformation to find out where my broken pieces were….and he helped me mend them.  He pushed me to failure in most of my exercises – but what he was doing was breaking me down only to build me back up.  He never once made me feel like I was weak…..but when I was feeling weak – he would remind me of how strong I was and that I could do it for “5 more seconds.”  And guess what, I did.

June 2010.  By now Micah is a dear friend.  He knows my quirks.  He knows my story.  He knows I am succeeding.  Every time I would drive to work out with Micah – I would dread the butt – kicking I was about to endure.  But every time I walked out of his gym I felt like I could conquer the world.  I followed his plan.  He gave me directions – and I took them very, very seriously.  The diet was strict – but never one time did I cheat on ANY food.  Not even a nibble of a cookie.  Not even a lick of icing off of a cake.  Not even a sip of soda pop.  I followed his exercise plans and MADE TIME for myself to exercise and change my life.  And I followed what he said because I believe in him.  And guess what, I succeeded.

Last week of June 2010.  It’s my last session.  My drive to workout with Micah was different this time.  I didn’t dread the butt-kicking.  Rather, I cried because it was over.  In fact, I cried the entire session!  He took time through my tears to recap how much I have changed my life, my son’s life, and my future because of diet, exercise and dedication.  Micah and Diana embraced me with hugs.  Their chemistry together is inspiring – and even though I wasn’t one of Diana’s clients – she always treated me as a friend.  So needless to say – Diana’s hugs meant a lot on my emotional last day.  Micah became such an important part of my life because he changed my life. It was really hard to say goodbye.  One of my fondest moments with Micah is when he complimented me for the very first time about ¾ of the way into my transformation and called me “Skinny Mini.” You see, Micah doesn’t hand out compliments like candy – I found you have to earn it.  At that point I knew I had made it!

I stand here today a better mommy, wife, business owner, and friend.  I am strong inside and out.  I have the ability to control my life – as Micah taught me.  My marriage is stronger than it has ever been.  I love running around playing baseball with my son. Before Micah, I would have rather taken a nap than play outside.  That is a sad thought.  I can organize my life better because I have energy, direction, and will-power.  I want to inspire other moms out there who are stuck in a rut like I was.  There is hope.  I promise diet and exercise will change your life.

Thank you to my husband who supported me from day one.  He works so hard for our family and sacrificed so much so I could work out.  Micah is currently working with him and changing his life too.  My husband is the most amazing man and held my hand through my transformation.  Thank you to my son Ty who wants to challenge me to the PLANK all the time!  He is learning great things from what I have learned.  He will be a better, stronger, healthier little boy because of Micah being in our lives.  Thank you to Gwen – I firmly believe God planted you in my life for this particular purpose – you came to me when I needed someone the most – you were and always will be my rock.  Mary and Ashlie – who worked out with Micah the same time I did and helped encourage me.  You girls became lifelong friends and we shared one of the hardest journeys of our life together through Micah.  And lastly, thank you to Micah for wiping my tears from day one and allowing me to reach the potential you knew I always had.  Your purpose in life has clearly been established.  You are a dear friend and I can never explain to you how much I appreciate the tools for life you have left me with.  And please know that I will always do 5 more seconds whenever I feel like giving up! ;)

When I first started working with Micah, I could hardly do a push up, and could only do about 20 body weight squats before my legs got all wobbly. Today i stand proud, being able to do more then 50 push ups in a row and stronger and leaner then i have ever been in my entire life. I came to Micah at a really all time low in my life. We had just returned home from vacationing from Forida, and i was the most depressed i have ever been. i was near 200 pounds and wearing size 38 pants and large and x large t shirts. I hated the way i looked, i slept all the time and had no energy for anything and was not motivated about life at all. Then one day it just hit me, i looked in the mirror and i was not happy about the way i looked, and i knew it was time for a change.

I joined a local gym and started working out, i looked at the way the trainers interacted with the people and i did not like it, seemed so routine and unfriendly. I see a lot of other people working out with personal trainers, and they keep doing the same boring exercises over and over again. That NEVER happens with Micah. Even after all this time i trained with him, I am constantly amazed by how he keeps coming up with new things that I’ve never seen anyone else do.

Try a few sessions with Micah and you’ll see for yourself. I could have hired any personal trainer I wanted. But i knew after the first session, I’m sticking with Micah. I was friends with Micah on facebook for a long time and would always see pictures of his transformations and was always amazed by them, i sent him a message and he responded quickly. I told him i would do whatever it took, any sacrifice big or small i would make to finally be happy. He not only became my personal trainer but also a great friend, he genuinely cares about how you are doing and what has happened in your life to get you to the point that you are and that’s why i stuck with him. I followed his diet, exercise program and fast forward today i am in the best shape of my life. Through winter, the flu, job changes, and other obstacles we pushed through it and never gave up.


During the time that you coached me, i have enjoyed the BEST HEALTH i have ever attained. As a result of your customized sessions, I enjoyed a superior level of strength, stamina and flexibility that, ultimately, made me happier, calmer, more productive and boosted my self-esteem. He clearly possesses a wealth of knowledge which he freely shares with his clients. One thing is for sure, although I got tired, I never got bored. After just a few workouts with Micah, I saw and felt immediate changes to my body and posture. I also felt more energized and confident. Ask him for his special treat – the red hill, or even better them mean green calf machine.

You had an outstanding ability to connect with people and as peope striving to be better, not just about money in your pocket. You were always open and worked hard to understand and respect me as an individual. Last but not least, you coached me with the right way to overcome my worst habits and bad fitness attitudes. You were my role model and you always embodied the wise path to progress. Most importantly, you made me laugh brother!!

Everything you taught me and all the patience and faith you showed me have kept fitness at the top of my mind. Because of you, Micah, I seek out opportunities to pursue healthy lifestyles everywhere i go and i am dedicated to making you proud of what i achieve.
