TESTIMONIALS

"Wow! I am ecstatic of the results that I have seen in such a short time.  I now have more energy & confidence but less aches and pains. Which this only makes me want to go back for more. I have learned that it takes a combination of proper nutrition, weight training and cardio to see that longer lasting results that you are looking for. This is not a diet & exercise program it is a LIFE STYLE CHANGE. Trust me I know you will be happy with yourself in the end.There are several reasons why I feel it is a good idea to hire a trainer. But, the one that I feel most important are they keep your workouts safe and make sure you are doing them correct. I know you are probably thinking “can I really afford this”? Believe me I did the same thing. I finally decided yes I can afford this because I am doing it for ME & my HEALTH. Sometimes you have to put yourself first.

Michele and Mike are both wonderful to work with. Michele has been there to answer my questions 24/7. Thank you so much for all of the support that you have given me. I couldn’t have done it without you! "

I was introduced to Michele by Scott Herkes at an open house where they were manning the Max Muscle booth.  I had reached a point where I was at my heaviest and feeling down on myself.  I talked with Michele for a while and she was very encouraging...just what I needed!  I went home and talked to my husband about joining the MaxFormation challenge.  I am so glad I did.  Begin Again Fit For Life has been training me and the results have been amazing.  I still have a long way to go, but the positive attitude and gentle nudging i get from them keep me headed in the right direction.  They understand where I am coming from (since Michele's been there) and has helped me through those times of doubt and fear.  They are way more than just a personal trainer!  They really care and want to see me succeed.

CLEAN EATING GROCERY STORE FIELD TRIP
Thanks so much for taking time out of your very busy schedule to share your knowledge of nutrition with me.  I must say, my head was pounding a bit by the end of the trip, but what I learned was so very valuable and necessary.  I started on this journey with you out of a desperation to regain my health.  No one should feel like 70 at the tender age of 41, but that's exactly how I had been feeling for quite some time.  You have more than convinced me of the importance that nutrition plays along with a great workout schedule.  Since the first day I began on the nutrition plan you established for me I have been taking back my health, meal choice by meal choice.  I think it is important to underscore the word choice here.  I choose to eat healthy, it can be done and it can be sustained because I am in control of my food choices which in turn puts me in charge of my health.  So at the end of the day, I can take all the wisdom you have passed along to me and use it to benefit my life or choose to neglect it and go back to feeling like I'm 70 years old.......I choose health!!
 
So, to sum up in a nut shell what my grocery store, clean eating field trip experience was like, I'll mention the top 3 things I took away with me.  First, sugar is not going to benefit my health in any way, shape or form and yet it is in practically everything that the grocery store has to offer us.  So how do I make the best decision about a product as it relates to it's sugar content.  I know how to now thanks to you Michele......wow I never, ever heard of sugar alcohols before!!  2nd, deli meat is NOT an option for my family anymore.  I always thought I was making a better choice by going to the deli counter rather than buying the "packaged deli meats" in the refrigerated section.  I could not have been more wrong, way too much sodium.  From now on it's a turkey breast in the crock pot or chicken on the grill for my families wrap choices.  And last but certainly not least, just because Cheerios offers a Multi Grain version of their product it does not mean it's supremely heathier for me to put in my body.  How stupid we all must appear to these companies?  One looksie at the label and I realized to my shock and amazement that I had been fed a lie, a wolf in sheep's clothing is more like it.  You taught me that if they take something out of a food, they have to replace it with something else and what is that something else?  Call MJ, she is passionate about exposing the lie!!
 
Thank you MJ, you are my hero!!
