Dear Chad,
As I begin to write about my good experiences at Shaping Concepts
I realize that I've lost the names of the two other people I worked
with. I think the wonderful kind girl is named Hillary, but I'm
not sure... The chap is a fire fighter... I had their names written
down but I've lost them. All of these
kids went out of their way to make me feel it was possible to do
the things that would make me stronger. Each one was inspiring as
well as encouraging. It was interesting. They told about how they
kept their training up. And made being able to do exercises seem
like fun, which was new to me.
No one ever
gave me something I could not do. I did not go home in pain and
it was never boring. I learned that fire fighters walk backwards
to gain strength. I had never played ball before and they were so
kind and encouraging that I wondered whether [like that sweet girl]
I'd soon be playing ball. Each person who helped me opened a view
of the world of physical activity which looked attractive and beneficial.
No one scolded me or tried to make me feel guilty, or poor at what
I was doing.
It is good
to hear, "You are stronger than I thought you would be".
"You are going to be able to go out boating soon". These
kids set it up so I will do well; so it's a pleasure to go there.
And I am getting stronger and I'm sure I'm going to be able to reach
my goals.
I thought
exercises were either something you did that hurt, bored you, and
very likely would be humiliating if you did not do well at it. At
Shaping Concepts you can find the way to improve fitness and enjoy
doing it. They are great trainers!
Thanks you guys!

"THANK
YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Since starting the Shaping Concepts program
a few weeks ago, I am definitely noticing a difference in the way
I look and feel. Although I've only lost a few pounds, I'm very
excited at how much tighter my body is-less flabbiness and more
muscle definition. My clothes are fitting better and some are even
loose! As a result of attending the Body Transformation seminar,
I'm eating more nutritional meals. I now read labels and have a
better understanding of what's in the food I buy and how we are
often misled by advertising. I also drink A LOT more water. I was
surprised at how much of a difference the water makes-I feel much
less bloated throughout the day. Thanks for the enlightenment! The
workouts have such variety that it is never boring-challenging yes,
but not boring! Your guidance in doing each move correctly and encouragement
in pushing for "just two more" has given me the confidence
that I can do it. I highly recommend the program to anyone who wants
a challenging workout with personal attention that gets results
quickly. Thanks again."

"For more years
than I can even think of, I have been battling my weight. It has
affected my career, my personal life and left me in medical terms,
as "morbidly obese". I recently turned 50 and felt like
if I didn't do something now, my life would not last much longer.
I had tried every diet known to man with very poor results. Then
one day I was going into Domino's for pizza when I saw next door
was a place called "Shaping Concepts". After talking to
my doctor I decided to go the route of exercise and good eating.
(To which he had been telling me for years to help combat my diabetes)
I enrolled in the program and found that first off, the trainers
really care about you and are dedicated to helping you attain your
goals. They are friendly, personal, and professional. They design
a program that is just right for your personal needs. Along with
all of this, they even provide education on how to shop for food,
what to look for and even an eating plan that I can stick to. I
started slow (because of my poor condition) and was astounded how
quickly the body reacts to exercise. I am six weeks into my program
now and have lost 10lbs, many inches, and feel 10 years younger.
My blood pressure has come down from 130/90 to 112/66 and my blood
sugar numbers are coming back to normal. I have discovered a lifestyle
that will not only lengthen my life span, but allow me to enjoy
a better quality of life, one full of energy and vitality that I
would never have had without Shaping Concepts. I will continue this
program knowing that finally, I have found the vehicle to help me
reach my goal in conditioning and weight loss. I thank God for Shaping
Concepts……"

"This is the best
exercise program I have ever done!"
-Margit Cook
"I enjoy walking
in and being greeted with smiles and everyone knows your name -
you are treated as an individual, not just a member. I definitely
have more energy and I can see that I am losing weight and getting
in shape. I can eat without feeling guilty - I now know I NEED to
eat to be fit and healthy. I went from eating one meal a day to
eating at least 4 times a day."
-Cyndi DeTurris
"I like the way my
workouts change every time I go in. Chad and his staff treat the
customers very well. I'm very happy with my sessions."
-Galen Miller
"After just 5 sessions
the progress has been amazing -stress reliever; strength enhanced
in both my arms and legs; more stability. They even "forced"
me to improve my eating habits. Thank goodness and healthfulness
for my Christmas present".
-Jean Washington
"I began working with Chad about two months ago and really
enjoy it! In fact, I look forward to working out twice a week and
I can't even believe that I am saying this. I just have never dedicated
time to establish and stick with a fitness routine. It was always
too easy to make an excuse not to do it. But when you have an appointment
and know that you will feel great when you leave, you never want
to miss it. I definitely get pushed further than I would push myself
and that's exactly what I needed. This is something that I am doing
just for me! Not only am I seeing the difference, but I am feeling
it too. Thanks!"
-Lynda Halpern
"When I began this
program I was in really bad condition. I suffered of everything
from obesity to bad vision and something I would really like to
mention is working out with ya'll helped me control my hypertension.
I had so many problems, but you helped me through my strife. Thank
you Shaping Concepts for saving my life!"
-Ravita Bhimbra
"Shaping Concepts
has accomplished what seemed like an impossible task. It made a
believer out of my sister-in-law. I have always had a hard time
convincing her to workout. Now she is the one rushing to squeeze
a workout into her busy schedule. Whenever I se her, I see her as
a health conscious person, I want to thank Chad and Roberto for
their encouragement and support. Keep up the good work and keep
changing the world one fitness freak at a time."
