"Prior to starting the program at Elite, I was feeling like my age had “caught up with me.”
I had been gradually gaining weight over the years and, at 64, figured that I just wasn’t going to be able to do a lot of things I’d done when I was younger.
Everything, from household chores to playing sports to riding my motorcycle, was harder and took more effort. My wife signed us up with Elite after seeing the results her sister had achieved with Sascha and her team.
I was a little skeptical as we’d tried fad diets and exercise videos over the years with only marginal success. I could tell from the first meeting with Sascha that this program would be different. She is knowledgeable, friendly, supportive and committed to our success. I was also a little worried that the program would be full of “gym rats” that would intimidate or be condescending towards newbies like us. Nothing could be further from the truth. We found a group of friendly, supportive, accepting people with the same goals that we had.
Once we started, we found the workout sessions to be challenging but not impossible. The biggest shock for both of us was, hands down, our results.
We had set a goal of 20 lbs. of weight loss in six months and immediately began to see results. We achieved our six month goal in eight weeks and have regained the energy that I thought we’d lost to old age. To be honest, I feel better and have more energy at 64 than I had at 44.
I’ve learned about nutrition and make better food choices to support my new lifestyle.
