I'm an 59 year old male with back, shoulder, and knee problems. Worked out at LA #%**/# for one year with a trainer and got nowhere. It waa cheap and close to home but my weight and strength didn't seem to move.
Went to a small gym up north but my back blew a disk lifting heavy. Did #*ossfit in Chandler but my back acted up again.
So I started driving up here 2 hours from Queen Creek! I heard about it from some friends in the body building arena. I'm not a body builder but if trains them then I fiquire he could get me stronger quicker.
Long ass drive but after 2 months I'm seeing results. I've lost weight and gotten stronger which I understand is hard to do both at the same time.
Chris understands how to manage my difficult expectations. Finally I'm listening. ....2 days rest for my old body, follow his meal plan, and cut down on my frequency of cardio. I thought if one hour cardio was good then 3 hours of cardio was better......not always. Why the body sometimes burns lean muscle mass before fat is frustrating!
My back is getting better by modification of my workouts and strengthening my core. Chris understands why my back doesn't like certain exercises and modify s the workout.
I'm training for a Tough Mudder so I'm doing muscle endurance exercises now then muscle building when I'm done with TM. I could have never gotten this far so fast with the other places that I mentioned above.
I give this place 5 stars because of my results, meal plan info, working with my difficult personality, and his knowledge of the human body. If I had any advice I'd say to give it 2 months. Work as hard as you can while you're here. Follow his meal plan and training rules. It's money well spent. read more
