In June of 2009 I had the pleasure of meeting Kate. She was referred to me by her doctor, Dr. Spencer Rozin, for a fitness assessment. After reviewing her results and talking about her goals it was time to make a change.
As Kate said, "When I reached a big birthday milestone I realized I’d better address my physical fitness. My hobby is training my dogs for AKC obedience competitions so I have to be able to keep up with active, athletic Golden Retrievers. This requires balance, strength and flexibility.
After flunking a fitness evaluation at my doctor’s office I signed up to train with Steve Collett at Enhancing Health twice a week. Many months later I started the Take Shape For Life nutrition program as well. Now I am stronger, more agile and 26 pounds lighter and 10% leaner. This leads to smaller blue jeans! More importantly; I have found that I’m more confident of my physical abilities.
Here are two of my favorite accomplishments. One day fairly early into my training I realized I was running down the stairs. When was the last time you did that? Also, it still amazes me that 10 minutes on the elliptical machine isn’t all that difficult when 2 minutes used to leave me sweating and breathless with legs of rubber.
Of course I’m not actually getting any younger but I do feel as if I inhabit a younger more capable body. Feeling that I look darn good is fun too. Thanks, Steve!

60 second plank! Strong CORE.
Great flexibility and strong upperbody.
Kate is one of many people that I have helped not only reach their goals physically, but more importantly feel much more empowered and an enhanced feeling of body awareness. If this is something that you would like to achieve please don't hesitate to ask!
