Down 47 lbs. In Less Than Six Months
Bill Ahern began training at my gym in December of 2015.
As of May 17, 2016, Bill has dropped 47 pounds. Losing this much weight has allowed him to improve across the board - resting vital measurements, body composition, posture, flexibility, strength, endurance, confidence, etc.
Two specific indications of his health improvements that excite me the most...
1. His ability to perform chin ups. I now have to sling a band around him to provide an adequate challenge.
2. Improvement in his jumping and landing mechanics. He is able to be "lighter" on his feet with jumping and footwork drills.
I do not take the credit for Bill's success - the credit goes to Bill himself.
He is the one that has put in the work, and now is the one to reap the rewards of being stronger and healthier.
Bill's mindset and habits are the gold standard that anyone seeking a fitness goal should adopt...
He understands that changes don't happen quickly.
He has made entire lifestyle adjustments, not only adding in exercise.
He doesn't skip workouts.
He pushes himself and takes accountability in his own training.
He is coachable - willing to try anything you offer him, and listens to, and applies your suggestions.
Bill normally gets to the gym 3-4 days per week. When he is away on vacation, he asks that I send him work outs which he does on his own.
Bill also works out at FXB several times per week, and is very active with his dog in his free time.
Congratulations, Bill, and keep up the great work!
-Drew
