My Journey:Â The Hustle & Grizzle Story
After being an undersized athlete during my high school years, I gained 50 pounds in less than a semester of college. This led to years of struggle with weight management and unhealthy living that was compounded as I transitioned into corporate America. I had the ambition to change for the better but lacked a good understanding on how to make it happen.
After experiencing a major health scare in my 30’s, I participated in an office weight loss challenge. I got myself to trust the process to stay dedicated to a 13-week workout program (P90x) and made my fitness breakthrough. While I managed to lose the competition by 0.1%, I ended up creating a level of fitness that was better than my teenage years. I lost some cash but gained something infinitely better!
After conquering my own fitness journey, I gained a better understanding of how to structure my nutrition and how to get the most out of a workout program. It only made sense that I take on the challenge of helping others through their fitness journeys. I use my experience to help simplify the process for my clients.  It's a great feeling to help others accomplish what they once thought was impossible.
This process has helped me become the best version of myself for my family and friends. The path has its fair share of obstacles, but the experience will strengthen your body and your mind. We all have problems to deal with as well as responsibilities to handle. The key to success with your fitness is learning how prioritize the value of effort and making it a priority. With patience and persistence, you can accomplish anything. So as you begin your own journey, I say keep grinding. You and the people you love the most will be better for the it. If you need help, I will be here to extend a hand....and most importantly, enjoy it!!
-Good Luck,
