Feelings about your own progress

Nick Baker and Erin Bidlack have been excellent. I have lots of support from them, family, and social media. Progression is slow, but I’m starting to get in the groove. Finding that balance between work and health is hard, but I’m dedicated to see results. Getting there is the hardest part. Nick and Erin make the rest easy.

I am dedicated!

COMMENTS ON Dale’s PROGRESS: 

“Getting started is always hard, but now Dale has improved his endurance to get through an hour workout. That change happened in less than three months. It will never be easy because the class is designed to allow you to push yourself harder when you can.

Dale has gotten stronger in all his major lifts and continues to come to group workouts. We meet on Wednesday mornings to start the day together and work it out. Overcoming the challenges that work and life bring is key to consistent progress.

Dale is also following our weight loss and cleanse nutritional program with Isagenix.”

Feelings about your own progress

To be honest, I’m feeling frustrated with my body. I’ve been working so hard, eating right, exercising a lot, and doing it consistently, but have seen very little change. I’m hoping my body is just taking a while to rebound after having a baby so recently. I am loving the experience though. If nothing else, I know my endurance is a lot better, I feel stronger, and I’ve made so many new friends.

I am stronger!

COMMENTS ON Meghan’s PROGRESS: 

“Megan is on point with her workout routine, and I’m so proud of her! She is working out four to five times a week at the studio consistently.” — Erin Bidlack 

“The best part about getting healthier is learning what will work best for you. Megan is doing amazing at learning what works for her busy lifestyle, and we are excited to see the progression!” — Angela Bax

Feelings about your own progress

Erin has a great way of motivating me to work out harder and meet all my goals while Nick has helped me build more muscle mass on every monthly weigh-in. Angela’s health coaching and meal preps have also been great. She’s taught me how to live a more healthy lifestyle.

I am getting there!

COMMENTS ON Andy’s PROGRESS:

“I have been so impressed with how consistent he has been coming to the group fitness classes. He comes to my Muscle Up Monday and pushes himself to the max. He has improved his overall strength in all muscle groups.

Andy has dramatically increased his performance and cardio endurance. You can tell he thrives on the healthy community, and it’s fun working together on fitness goals.

His nutrition has improved so much, and now he is clear on the process to healthy change. He has also been using our nutritional weight loss and cleanse program with Isagenix.”
