And so it begins....

I have wanted to start a blog about health and fitness for awhile now, ever since I started Dynamic Fitness Solutions. Anyone who knows me knows that I could spend hours talking about fitness! My journey into fitness started long ago when I was playing high school sports. Competing in sports taught me many things that helped form my personality from a rather young age-discipline, focus, time management, persistance (practice pays off!), self-confidence, a "never give up" attitude, but more importantly, how much I loved being fit and healthy and testing my body's physical limitations. Ever since then, I have had a life-long quest to help others learn these skills and grow to love exercise and being healthy FOR LIFE. To me, there is nothing more gratifying than seeing someone overcome tremendous adversity with their health and/or weight and not only reaching those goals with my help, but becoming happier on the inside. The "before" and "after" pictures are only the icing on the cake, the real reward is seeing the changes within and how much that affects their lives in every way.

I have trained people across the whole spectrum-the stay-at-home mom hoping to lose those "last 10 pounds", the 75 year old grandma with severe health problems, the middle-aged man rehabing an injury, the high school athlete, the pregnant woman, the novice runner training for their first marathon, or just your average Joe. I've trained them all and I love a challenge more than anything! For me, it's a learning experience as well-I learn that everyone has different physical and mental capacities, I learn how to tweek a workout just enough to motivate someone who despises exercise, how to get a client to eat healthy who has lived off of fast food their whole life, the list goes on. It's an evolution for me as well, and with more experience and working with all walks of life, I become a better Trainer and person in the end. I love that part the most too, because it keeps my job anything but boring and the learning never ends...And so on that note, I hope that this blog will help people LEARN, get questions answered, get creative ideas for their own workouts or diets, and have fun along the way...ENJOY!!!
