My name is Bernard from Singapore.  Although I purchased the MAX Workouts program a couple of years ago, I haven't had the discipline and commitment to follow through beyond the first month of the 90 day program. It was not long before complacency set in and I found myself terribly out of shape again. My fitness level dipped, and I was back to my old lifestyle of late night binging and feeding on junk food. I blamed my hectic work schedule, poor genes, and everything else other then myself. I could barely even fit into my clothing. That period was the low point in my health and fitness level.

After receiving the details for the MAX Workouts transformation contest, I decided to take control of my fitness and body by using the contest as a motivating factor. The initial stages were difficult as I had to clean up my diet and wake up earlier to work out. The good thing was that along the way, I received email tips from MAX Workouts which guided me in my journey. The 30 minute workouts also allowed me to better fit them into my work schedule. As the weeks went by, I could feel myself having more stamina and strength. This 'feel-good' factor helped me resist temptations to binge and to persevere on with the workout plan.

Today, with what I have achieved with my health and fitness, I feel that I am already a winner, whether or not I win this contest. But I hope my transformation can inspire others to start afresh, just as how the stories of past contestants have inspired me. I will continue to train hard and incorporate the MAX Workouts into my daily routine.
