I can be a renegade. I can be vocal about what I do not like but just as easy I can be understanding and above all coachable.

It is not often you find a trainer/coach who is dedicated, passionate and understanding. Anthony has been a key element in my transformation. He is passionate about fitness and understands how important it is to modify exercises for my fitness level. He also knows when it's time to push harder and make me do more. A prime example of this was when he pushed me to complete the spin workshop. I was trying to just participate in only the HIIT workshop because I did not enjoy the spin class I tried in the past. I tried to talk my way out of it by stating how hard, uncomfortable and painful it was the first time. 



He listened then simply stated, "it's not optional". Yes, I wanted to throw myself to the floor kick and scream and throw a CLASS A tantrum but (1) I'm grown and (2) he wasn't listening. **HAHA ** So I said, "fine, I will remain coachable and do it". This is because I trust his skills and know in the end he's on MY TEAM. He has not guided me wrong with ROAR and he is dedicated to his clients/students obtaining optimal results. He provides weekly workshops to make sure we remain informed and tries everything to keep us focused. I have lost 101 pounds to date - 60 of them while training/coaching with Anthony. So I listen and trust his guidance. 

Spinning Workshop with Anthony Freeman - Nov. 2, 2014

The result of the spinning workshop: 

It was not as bad the second time. It was not as painful. It was still uncomfortable but I chose to focus more on the elements I liked about the workshop and his coaching methods. Once it was over I committed to doing it twice a week. Today is day two of week one in spinning. I'm ready for another awesome fitness adventure! 


Here's to remaining open to change.
