Why I am a Trainer

I asked a friend last week…”What should I right about?” We talked about me explaining how exercise affects the brain. What exactly happens with our hormones and what gets released, and why. We both thought it would be very interesting, and people would like to know that information. However, that’s not what I am going to be writing about today. I promise I will, just not today. Today I want to talk about why I have personally chosen this profession. I’ve been doing some reading lately, and in the business books I’m reading the question “Why?” keeps coming up. Everyone that knows me knows what I do, and how I do it, but I’m not sure peeps know why I do it. Deep question!! I’m not going to get all lovey dovey with you, but I am going to be honest. The reasons why I am a Professional Fitness Trainer are because: I love fitness, I love results, but seriously, most of all, I love people and caring for them. I really do care about every single individual that walks through Elevate’s doors. I know that sounds kind of stupid and not realistic, but it’s so true. Why the heck else would I wake up at 4am and come home at 7:30pm? There are easier ways to support my family then working those hours. My search for the right path in life has sent me down many roads. But they have all lead back to this. Why? Because I care! Results are important too. I come into EVERY session with a purpose. That purpose is different for each client. But for that hour or however long we are together that day, I am striving for a specific result for you. In my opinion if you’re not getting some kind of result then what’s the point? Over the years I have found that the result does not have to be life changing at that moment. It could be anything from losing weight to sleeping better. Everyone is different. Being passionate about fitness helps a ton. This industry is forever changing. Now a days, anyone can write a blog post and change people’s mindset about how to workout, what to eat, how much to sleep, etc. But what always stays the same is the need to exercise correctly and eat healthy food. For me, exercising comes easy and I can’t believe I have a career where I can share that with people. In closing, I guess I’m writing this to talk out loud and help you understand me a bit better. Also, That is why EVERYONE works here at Elevate. I'm going to say that I'm the voice for everyone here, and reason why we do this is simply because we care.
