My Path to Fitness: An Update

September 25, 2011 By Michael Mahony, ISSA CPT Leave a Comment

My Update

My path to having a body that looks good has been a long one, but I am on a path that leads to the promised land at the current time. I predicted this a month or so ago when I told you about a change in my training and nutrition. I am no longer just confident that things are going in the right direction, I am 100% certain of my ultimate success. It is an awesome feeling to know you are going to reach your goals.

Always Be Aware of Potential Changes

One thing I've learned is that help is always in places you least expect. For me it all began at the Los Angeles Fitness Expo in January of 2011. It was there that I met Chris Albert, owner of Metroflex Gym – Long Beach. I took the time to talk to Chris and really enjoyed our conversation. I was one of the very first people to join the gym when they opened up membership. Eventually, Chris agreed to handle my nutrition program. He now handles all aspects of my fitness life–training and nutrition–and has given me the confidence that I now have.

Teamwork Brings Success

Don't get me wrong here. I am not saying that Chris is the only reason I am going to be successful. The reality is that Chris is part of a team that includes him, me and my wife, Alison. It takes the active involvement of the three of us for this to work. Chris is there to give me the professional, unbiased advice on my progress. He tweaks my nutrition and runs all of my workouts. My wife, Alison, is there to support me and hold me accountable for eating on time, etc. My job is to implement the suggestions that Chris gives me, train hard and eat right.

Teamwork brings success. Don't try to do this all by yourself. If you are having a hard time getting in shape, give a personal trainer a try. Make sure they understand your goals and that they have experience doing this for other people. If you are interested in the kind of nutrition plan I have, Chris has an online nutrition counseling service. Get in touch with him and you will find your success is within your grasp.
