There is no magic wand.

There is no pill you can swallow.

Fitness is a life long commitment. By practicing healthy lifestyle choices everyday you will learn to take care of your self both in the present moment and in your future. I will help you look at your schedule and sort out reasonable goals, which will set you up to succeed. I will teach you how to deeply connect your mind and body by exercising with attention to detail. In deepening this connection, you will develop a nuanced relationship that can last a lifetime. My training sessions are not easy and I will push you, but never more than you can handle. The only requirement I have is that you commit to doing the work and giving me your all. I will do everything in my power to get you to where you want to go. It is my pleasure and my passion to empower you.

I love the metaphor that is strength training. In order to build power, size and strength you have to literally break down your muscle mass. This in turn switches on the body's survival mechanism and makes the body build back faster and stronger. This reveals a law of nature that can be applied across the board: sometimes life falls apart to come back together. You need to break things down to build things up.
