As a san diego personal trainer and nutrition counselor in over the past ten years, I have worked with a lot of clients with many different perspectives. The main difference between those who achieved great success with their health and those who did not is their openness and willingness to change. For most people, it’s not a matter of being able to change, it’s a matter of being willing to change how you go about your day. What you decide to do, where and what you decide to eat, whether you take the time to unwind and take care of your body, if you get enough sleep, if you have belief in yourself, all contribute to how you feel and look.

I recently started working with a client who has the classic profile of someone with every excuse in the book available to her. She is 60 years old, has never developed a consistent pattern of exercise, and needed help with nutrition. Her body fat was in the high 30s, weight 25-35 pounds more than she wanted, and energy inconsistent throughout the day. So what has she done?

She started to eat in alignment with her body’s metabolism, functional strength train 3 days per week, and do 1 day of interval cardio training. In a 6 week time frame, she has lost 5.5% body fat, 5.5 inches, and 9 pounds of fat…..may I repeat…in six weeks!

The key to her success has simply been an openness to change and the willingness to put in the effort.
