I finally tipped the scale at over 200 lbs...I could not believe it.  I felt awful, my clothes were tight and I was tired all the time.  My oldest son had finally gotten to where he could ride a bike without training wheels and was asking me to take bike rides all the time.  I never wanted to because I was just so tired.  I felt like a bad dad, as all I wanted to do when not at work, was sit on the couch and rest.

Towards the end of last year our company offered a fitness challenge.  I decided not only to participate, but that I would be the grand champion.  I knew it would not be easy and I would have to work hard and I knew exactly what I needed to do for the 12 weeks, the MAX Workouts program AND the Lean Body Diet and that is what I did.

I remember after the first week I looked ahead at the future level workouts and thought, there is no way I’m going to be able to do that in a just a few weeks, but when it came time, I not only did it, but made improvements week after week, pushing myself to do more in less time.  I loved and love the workouts, especially the Olympic type lifts.  They are the most fun to do and although I am still not as strong as I would like, they make me feel strong and powerful doing them.

I am so thankful for this program and what it has done for my overall health.  I am healthier, happier, and have tons of energy to play with both my boys and take bike rides anytime they want.
