In just over one month after beginning my Ripped
Freak Training Program, I started to see results I didn’t think were possible,
especially in such a short amount of time.
From what I remember, the first time I had the confidence in myself to
wear a tank-top to a training session, Dean seemed to see the same
results. At this point, Dean presented
me with a challenge, to work towards preparing for a photo shoot with Pink
Elephant Photography at the end of October.
Without even thinking about it at the time, I agreed to take on the
challenge. I must say this was both
extremely difficult and a very rewarding experience. The intensity of training and focussed meal
planning showed me just what my mind and body is truly capable of. From doing this photo shoot, I then took a
chance to submit one of my photos and personal story to Inside Fitness
Magazine, with the hopes of being selected for the magazine’s Feb/March edition
to highlight amazing transformations. After
a difficult three month wait for the release of the new issue of the magazine,
I was extremely honored and thrilled to find that my submission was selected to
be featured as one of the transformations.
I now
feel more focussed and committed than ever, to my meal planning, cardiovascular
endurance and weight training. One thing
I have found a key to my success in staying focussed, is that I have not fallen
into the traditional “off season” style of eating and training. I am often asked by friends and co-workers
for advice on ways to adjust their habits to eat healthier. It feels good to be able to share some of my
experiences with these friends to help them begin their own journey to improve
their overall wellness. I took it as
such an amazing compliment, when a friend sent me a message to ask for advice
on how to start on a path of living a healthier lifestyle and told me, “You’re
a motivational force!”
I look forward to share more insights with
you and continue to share my ongoing journey of Transforming Wellness.
Thank you for reading! Talk to you soon.
