My favorite client story

My client, a mom of two little boys, absolutely hated training. I prepared fun sessions for her and introduced her to running. Now, we train 3 times a weeks together, she has lost 20lbs and she ran her first race. She is loving her new life and body.

Guys, Maria is the best trainer ever! The workouts are challenging and interesting and I already see so many changes. She is someone who could have trained me when I was 20 30 40 or 50. She really has designed an amazing program for me. I'm getting stronger every week and I love it Give yourself a chance to feel really good about yourself.!

With a lot of resistance but with a great desire to continue collecting anecdotes with my lifelong friends, I was training with the great Maria who helped me a lot, and even managed to get me to stop.

I never liked all this, least of all running. It lasted 2 minutes and I had to stop because I felt like I was going to spit out a lung, and here I am running my first 5K race! Absolute happiness and proud of myself. Thank you Maria for always motivating me more, a large part of all this is thanks to you.
