In 1996 I realized that I needed to change some things in my life in
order to return to living a much healthier lifestyle. Being an ex
college athlete I once was in tremendous shape. I found myself like many
people who once engaged in various physical activities, had gotten away
from engaging in a consistent routine of physical exercise combined with
proper balanced diet. As a result my body fat had reached a level of 28%
and I found myself easily fatigued.

I sought assistance from a personal trainer where I wanted to embark on
a schedule of regular exercise combined with a proper nutrition program
to attain a body fat of 12% which at that time would have been
considered in "good shape" for my age. I also wanted a program that gave
me results on a slow but steady change. So many people look for a quick
fix and are able to achieve dramatic results quickly. Often times they
are unable to be maintained for extended periods. The result can be
worse than where they started once more normalcy returns.

Over a period of 1 1/2 years I achieved my goal of 12% and in fact was
convinced by my trainer to reduce to under 4% and enter body building
competitions. I was able to maintain the discipline and actually
achieved a result under 4% but chose not to compete.

Unfortunately, I received an injury and had to get away from the
workouts. Like many things I somehow got back in to the old ways of
eating and lack of exercise. I am looking forward to being a beach body coach and implementing the tools that are available.
