THE J.B. IN JBEWELl

Let me tell you, I am no athlete ... I'm a fitness enthusiast, former client and regular person. That's what makes me the perfect person for this mission.
My passion stems from overcoming my own personal battle with yo-yo dieting and emotional eating. I figured out a way to chose wellness while balancing a typical, hectic New Yorker's schedule. I'm living proof that it can be done and I want to share that with you. I came home from college with the all too familiar "Freshman 15", which in reality was the "Four Year 50". At five feet tall I weighed in at 180lbs. I was overweight, but moreover I was unhappy. I was starting off my adult life on the wrong foot and I knew it. At the time I wasn't a personal trainer. My first job was in your typical office setting. I commuted into the city from the south shore of Staten Island and sat at a desk all day long. I decided I needed to change. I hired a personal trainer. I lost every pound I packed on in college with straight up hard work. I can't say that I loved every moment in the gym, but I loved the results. I spent the next four years working my 9-5 and keeping the weight off. In fact, I just kept getting more fit. In 2011 I decided to become a Fitness Professional and do for others what my trainer did for me. If I can do it, then so can you. My training philosophy is simple - gradual changes over time. It's not a sexy Get Fit Quick, Abs in 28 Days type of program, but what I do WORKS. So now, it's time to get motivated and take action. You've thought about this for long enough. |
