The Hardest Event

Life is not all about going fast and winning races. D and S are every bit as hardcore and mentally tough as my elite ironman clients. Both these girls have health issues and physical limitations, but they don't let it hold them back from working towards their goals.

They train with me at the Wellness Center at Baptist. We focus on a combination of strength training for toning, functional fitness, and fat-burning cardio. We keep accountable with Food Logs and discussing eating habits.

When you have health issues and limitations, a good trainer will know how to kick your butt but not aggravate those problems. One of my goals with a "fitness" client is to help get the joints as strong, healthy, and pain free as possible. That makes life worth living.
