He introduced me to every form of it, but I fell in love with running. I became very competitive, eventually garnering a U.S.A. Division I Track and Cross Country scholarship. That love also became my ticket to a bigger world: my career and a big part of my identity. I loved the simplicity of pure physical exertion and the discipline and commitment it taught me. Fitness truly is the best teacher and metaphor for life.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What makes your workout method unique?<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nIt\u2019s all based on my training as a competitive 10,000 meter runner. After a career-ending injury, I could no longer run, but I was determined to get back into top shape &#8212; physically and mentally. I use a specific combination of weights, cardio, and plyometrics. It\u2019s really a formula and a recipe. When you start following the workouts, it becomes addictive because the results are like no other.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Any client success stories?<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nSo many! I\u2019m genuinely moved, and inspired by the hundreds of letters I receive every year from people around the world who share the incredible transformations they\u2019ve gone through, their own journeys, their obstacles and challenges, and how these workouts, our community, the support, the coaching and the access, has truly and deeply helped them rise up.

I believed what came in the form of an injury was the universe\u2019s way of telling me I was meant to take a different path. When you\u2019re an athlete, it\u2019s all about you &#8212; but at the end of the day, who cares? You don\u2019t touch anyone. When you train others, you touch so many lives.
