I joined Fitness MD’s Fit Club in
October of 2006 and I’m in the best shape of my
life now!
I was
223 pounds and was tired of being unhealthy and
overweight. In the early 90’s I was a marathon
runner participating in marathons around the
nation, most notably the Boston Marathon. I
completed the Boston Marathon twice in ’93 and
’95, with a personal record time of two hours
and fifty-five minutes. Soon after my marathon
days, I started losing focus on health and
fitness. Like so many people my career and
family grew and I stopped exercising and became
less aware of my health and fitness. In the
beginning of 2006, I decided that enough was
enough and I was going to try and “get back into
the gym”. I struggled for months trying to
recuperate my prior fitness level that I had
attained during my marathon days. To add to the
suffering my eight year old daughter couldn’t
even put her arms around me to hug me. She
frequently commented, “Daddy, you’re bigger than
my friend’s dads”. After struggling physically
and emotionally at the gym and at home, I was
referred to Fitness MD’s Fit Club. After four months of the
Fit Club at Fitness
MD, I feel better at 43 years of age than I did
when I was running marathons in the early
1990’s. At 43, nothing is more important to me
than my health and my ability to be available
for my daughter.
Today
my daughter can hug her Daddy and I have Fitness
MD and their Fit Club to thank for
that! Fitness MD’s Fit Club has improved every aspect
of my personal fitness. I’m faster, stronger,
more confident, healthier, and best of all I
feel better than I ever have. Aside from my
personal fitness achievements, what really moves
me in this journey is seeing the physical,
mental, and emotional changes in the people who
have chose to make the commitment, and change
their life in this unique and un-replaceable
health and fitness program by Fitness MD. I’ve
made friends, lost weight, and I plan on getting
back to running marathons… Thanks, Fitness MD!

I joined Fitness MD Fit Club program on
September 1st, 2006. This day has to be by far
the most life changing day in my life. As well
as being my 42nd birthday, it was the day I
joined and committed to the most positive life
changing program I have ever experienced.
At the
time I joined Fit Club I weighed 256
pounds. My life had been reduced to 10 hour days
at work, 10 minutes with kids and falling asleep
from pure exhaustion. I could not sit for more
than 10 minutes without falling asleep. Poor
eating habits, lack of any physical activity
contributed to my then present state of health
and mind. I joined several health clubs with all
the intentions in the world to get in shape and
ended up paying monthly dues to a building I
visited only once or twice. Lack of motivation,
lack of proper discipline and direction always
led to that feeling of failure.
Mike
and Dave at Fitness MD have provided a program
that will guarantee you results if you desire
them. At my first personal goal of 10 pounds I
was hooked. The feeling of accomplishment, the
excitement of achieving something that had
eluded me for so many years is indescribable.
Through this program I have met and exceeded my
goals. I have gone from a 44 waist to a
comfortable 34 waist. I have lost a total of 56
pounds and now maintain 200 lbs. without
starving. The atmosphere of the classes, the
comfort of working at your own ability level
while working as a group, is exceptional. There
is no pressure to be the best, the fastest, or
the strongest. To see the people around you who
have joined start to reach personal goals is
rewarding as well. Through the demanding
physical workouts and the professional
knowledgeable dietary assistance all of this is
possible.
Joining this program has by far been the most
positive decision I have ever made! My wife has
joined the program as well and we look forward
to our classes on a daily basis. My thanks to
Mike and Dave, for their continued
professionalism and enthusiasm, in providing
this outstanding program. If you truly want
results, this is the place to be. |

My
journey to better health began on May 9th 2006.
I was tired of being a couch potato and avoiding
mirrors. Also, my best friend asked me to be a
bridesmaid in her June 2007 wedding. My 40th
birthday was approaching and told myself I
better get with a program and soon!
I
first began my training with Mike in one-on-one
sessions. I promised myself I would stick to a
3-day a week program for six months. It was one
of the hardest things I have ever done. But,
after each session I felt better and stronger.
At the end of six months I had lost a total of
22.5 pounds, 18” and 15% body fat. I felt
fantastic and decided to keep going with
additional sessions.
In
November of 2006 I joined Fit Club. I really
enjoyed the workouts and found myself wanting
more. Mike and David truly have a unique program
that keeps people on their toes. The superior
work-outs and their enthusiasm are extremely
motivational. I really enjoy working out with a
group of people. It is rewarding to see people
progress and share in the celebration of meeting
new goals.
I
can’t express my gratitude enough to Mike and
David for my new fitness level. As of today, I
have completed a year of non-stop exercise. I
have lost a total of 33 pounds and 30”. More
importantly, I have an achieved new confidence
level within myself.
I have
become a fitness lover and plan to continue with
the program well into the future. My next goal
challenge is the Tri-Girl-Tri Triathlon in Napa
this coming October.
If you
are looking for a fitness program that
incorporates fun, education and motivation into
achieving results, then you will be thrilled
with Mike and David!
Thank
you Fitness MD!! |

I
decided to join a gym after putting on a couple
of pounds a year, for many years. I also had
high blood pressure, high cholesterol and was
almost 50 years old. I was able to stop gaining
weight, but wasn’t able to lose any and my blood
pressure and lab results remained dangerously
high. My wife saw a flyer for Fitness MD and
decided to give it a try. She had great results
and wanted me to join. I really didn’t want to
spend the extra money on myself, but I wasn’t
getting the results on my own at the gym. I’m
very glad that I made the decision to join. I’ve
lost 18 pounds (current weight 152 lbs.) and now
have 19% body fat at the age of 50. The weight
loss is nice, but having my blood pressure and
lab results come back in the healthy range was
my best result. I owe it to the trainers and
Fit Club at Fitness MD for keeping
me motivated and for making exercise fun and
exciting. I’ve made some new friends, and look
forward to all the workouts. Thanks, Fitness MD.
