I'd like to start by saying Team America Fitness changed my life. In August of 2008 I hit my all time low as far as body composition. I was 206 pounds, with a 40 inch waist and 38% body fat. I did not know how I was going to get the weight off. I had trained with trainers in the past...many times and it never worked. I never found my flow. In Sept. 2008 I joined Gold's Gym in Huntington Beach and started doing cardio. I wanted to be left alone and go un-noticed. A trainer named Terry Hairston (Team America Fitness), kept an eye on me and was always nice. As weeks went by, he only said, " with how hard you work on cardio...weight training would make all the difference, I am here if you ever want to start training". I thought about that for about a week. Something about him seemed different, like he actually cared about my results. I decided to go for it. Kim Hairston, who is also on the team sat down with me and formulated a diet to help me reach my goals. Eating is such a huge part of it and this way, it was easy for me to follow. I started training 3 times a week with Terry and doing cardio every day.

After 3 months, I had dropped 30 pounds. By the 7th month, I went from 206 to 150 pounds...I went from 38% body fat to 21% and that 40 inch waist is at a 29. Yes...it took my dedication...But the winning combination was Terry's dedication to my success...I didn't want to let myself down...and I didn't want to let my trainer down because I knew he had a vested interest in my success. My goal is 140 pounds and to get to 16% body fat. I would have never thought that was possible a year ago.

With Team America Fitness, you are a part of a fitness family where every member will never let you forget that everything is possible if you are dedicated to reaching your goals. Whether you train with Terry, Kim... Mike Dunn.... Or any other member on the team, all the trainers work together to help you find your flow... they are always around to answer questions or help you out. I had given up on getting in great shape. All trainers and programs ARE NOT the same. I urge anybody who is in an unhealthy place as far as fitness to join this team. Nothing else worked for me. Team America fitness teaches you how to change your lifestyle, which is a gift that keeps on giving. Aren't we all worth this investment in ourselves? We have one life to live... why not live it being in good shape which in turn gives us all a better quality of life? Team America fitness was that golden ticket for me, and I know it can be for anyone who has a fitness goal.
