If you had asked me 4 months ago, I would have said that your have a better chance of seeing me lying on a slab in the morgue or a bed of nails than on a workout bench. However, the people at Avatar have changed all that. After my initial disappointment upon realizing that leg warmers were no longer in style on women at the gym, they made me feel completely at ease by focusing on where I wanted to go (my goals, objectives, schedule, etc.) vs. my past poor lifestyle choices (eating crappy food, drinking too much, sitting at my desk all day at work and they on my sofa all night at home). I was paired up with Steven and he has been absolutely amazing!!!
When I initially went to Avatar on the recommendation of my wife (oddly enough a workout nut), I weighed 242 lbs and had virtually no tone. After 2? short months, I now weigh-in at 203 lbs and have developed definition all over. In addition, I can feel a physical and emotional difference as I have noticed a dramatic improvement in my energy and stress levels. I have also made significant changes in my eating habits based on their recommendations and actually now enjoy eating healthier foods (and in smaller portions). And this is from a guy that at one time ate a 50 oz. porterhouse steak, tuna sashimi appetizer, a cantaloupe-sized piece of chocolate layer cake and two bottles of wine ? all for a $200 bet.
Again, I cannot say enough good things about my experience at Avatar. While I can still think of about 328 things I would rather do than go workout, the people at Avatar keep me coming back twice a week. Steven has been truly wonderful and is a primary reason that I have made the positive changes in my lifestyle and had them actually stick for more than 3 days ? my previous record. Eric is an incredibly knowledgeable trainer who has a calming influence while working to your correct level. And gentlemen ? do not be shy about training with the ladies (Lauren and Andrea) because they will KICK YOUR A**!!!
