Tales from the Scale- July Edition

 My favorite client stories so far...

Client A- Trying to lose 25 pounds as a gift to her husband for his birthday...  She is my favorite.  She will do anything/everything that I ask her to, and NEVER complains.  It's AWESOME.  She's already made huge improvements in the short amount of time I've been working with her.

Client B- 60 year old male with a 29 year old heart.  Yes. My heart transplant patient.  Two years ago he received a new heart, and has shown me ALL of the scars that went with it.  Definitely never used a gym before now.  Very challenging to just to get form correct, but motivate to lose his HUGE GUT- "Ms. Jonna, if you can help me get rid of this huge gut, I'm gonna buy you lunch!"  That's enough motivation for me!  :-)  Oh, did I forget to mention the 25 year old girlfriend?  No wonder a new heart was needed ;-)

Client C- New graduate from Texas A&M University.  Absolutely AMAZING.  Awesome athlete just needing to tone up after the "college" years.  We get along really well seeing as we're almost the same age and she loves a good challenge.  Unfortunately, she was unable to raise her arms after our first workout.  Oops!   

Coming up with exercises that they like while still challenging them has been interesting, but I'm definitely 110% more confident than I was two weeks ago.
