NICK

  • AFAA Certified Group Exercise Instructor

Nick I was an overweight teen. By the time I reached high school it had gotten out of hand.  I decided I needed to make a change after my freshman year. 

I began eating healthier and exercising religiously. When I returned to school my sophmore year I was lean and muscular. People were coming up to me in total shock!  I looked like a completely different person.  I felt so much better physically and mentally due to all of the positive feedback I was getting from everyone.  I felt reborn! 

Ever since then, I have been passionate about helping others achieve that very same feeling by reaching their goals and changing thier lives. I wasn't blesssed with great physical genetics, so even today I have to fight to stay in shape.  I've  been there. I know how it feels to be out of shape. But most imprtantly I know how to fix it!
