I first started working out with Rod in April 2010 as a part of a live healthy program at work. My primary goal at that time was to simply lose weight in preparation for a vacation. Well, Rod quickly made it clear that he was more concerned with my health and wellness. He tried to tell me over and over to stop focusing on the scale and focus on my health, but I, like so many other women wanting to lose weight, was controlled by appearance alone.
Over the months we discussed proper nutrition, the risks associated with being inactive and overweight, and the general need to take control of my health and fitness. If you ask me today why I continue to exercise, it won’t be because of weightloss…it will be because I want to live a totally healthy lifestyle and in the process the weight will naturally disappear. Rod helped me to reprioritize my health and fitness goals from the inside out and instead of the other way around.
Since working with Rod, I’ve gone from tipping the scales at 221 pounds to 179 pounds. And, I know it will only get better from here!
