Prospective Client:

I met David in December of 2005. I had been living with my fiancé for about two years. Subconsciously, I had assimilated to his eating habits. The result of a demanding career, and the spoils of an ex-college athlete who was used to eating whatever she pleased without gaining so much as an ounce led to many unaccountable pounds. Our busy lives revolved mostly around convenience. The upcoming wedding and honeymoon in Hawaii signified a time for major change.

I came to David as someone who always “knew better”. I had a working knowledge of dietary needs, as well as my physical strengths and weaknesses. I had been an athlete all of my life. I understood the pedagogy necessary to lose weight and maintain a healthy lifestyle, but had not put it to practice. Still, I found myself making the wrong sacrifices in attempts to simplify my hectic schedule. I needed accountability and a plan.

David was astute. From the beginning, he was able to see my strength potential and set the bar much higher than I would have, otherwise. Breaking back into shape was not easy and I had to be patient, but diligent. During this time, I became more toned and increased my overall strength. I lost some weight, but was more pleased with the way I felt. After a month, David and I increased our weight training from one session per week, to two. I also, increased my weekly cardio from three, forty-minute sessions to five, one-hour sessions.

The subtle differences I have noticed have grown into major differences others have noticed. Currently, I have cut my body fatby 25% and gone down a size and a half. Although I am principally, intrinsically motivated, I could not have progressed this far without David’s vision. I surprise myself constantly at what I am able to accomplish during our workouts. David still keeps me all the time challenged, and realistically, I can accomplish just about anything he puts in front of me, which is a pretty awesome feeling. David’s focus has been what has sustained me throughout this process and for that I am grateful

I am so happy with the progress I’ve made. I am conditioned and feel confident the upcoming months will be that much more amazing because of the hard work I’ve accomplished with David.

Sincerely,

Shana Nelson
