Juan came to the SPA Fitness Center and joined our Mixed Martial Arts program...Advantage MMA!  After a long gap between his high school days spent at the SPA's Advantage Wrestling Academy, Juan felt it was imperative to get healthy again, especially after the birth of his son and after gaining close to 100lbs. He weighed in at 271lbs his first day.

His goal from the start was to shed the weight, and fight within a year...well, its been about 11 months! The left photo is Juan about 1 month into his membership weighing around 265lbs and the right photo was taken in April, two weeks before his first fight, weighing very close to fight weight of 170lbs.
With the help of owner/operator Tom Loperfido, and other staff members Juan lost over 100 pounds since he joined the Spa. His journey began at 271lbs and he is now a strong, slim 165lb amateur fighter. He lost all this in just under one year!

Juan has been training with our Mixed Martial Arts Academy and just competed in his second amateur MMA fight and won! Juan is a dedicated, hard-working individual. We look forward to seeing his next fight and working out with him and the rest of the Advantage MMA! Congratulations Juan!

Anita is a participant in our RESOLVE TO DISSOLVE Grand Loser Challenge. 
Anita's Testimonial:  New Year's resolution was to lose weight.  I saw the ad for the contest and met with Mike at the Spa.  When I joined the program I was 245lbs.  It has been 60 days and I have lost over 25lbs, 16inches and decreased my body fat 3%.  I'm so glad I joined the weight loss challenge!  I have more energy and feel 65% better than when I started.  By the way, my biggest motivation is using the website to track my exercise and food intake. 

 I LOVE IT!  Thank you Spa Fitness Center!

April 2010

I started training with Mike in November of 2009.  I've already gone down one dress size.  I really like the meal plan and the workouts are challenging and effective.  Within 5 or 6 weeks I had very noticeable changes in all body areas. 

June 2010

I began training with Mike in January of 2010.  My goal was to firm up, increase my energy level and lose weight.  After several months of training 2x week I feel much better than before I started.  I seem to be losing inches and getting firmer.  I really trust Mike and would recommend him to all my friends!

May 2010

When I began training with Mike my goals were to re-gain strength and re-build muscle after my surgery.  Mike was an excellent trainer and very helpful with my medical conditions.  I would not have been able to stay at my job or take care of myself if I hadn't started training with Mike.

I began training with Mike in January, 2010.  Mike was very helpful and informative.  He recommended a meal plan and gave me a customized workout plan.  I lost 4.5 inches and 7.8% body fat!  I am much stronger and have more energy.  Thanks Mike!

My fitness goals were to lose weight.  I began training in April of 2010 and by June I had lost 29lbs and 12.5inches!  I really liked the interactive Meal Plan.  I was educated in proper nutrition and learned how the body rebuilds itself after workouts. 

June 16, 2010

When I decided to start training with Mike I wanted to tone up and lower my cholesterol.  My cholesterol was over 200 when I started.  I know have a total cholesterol of 162!  I loved the interactive meal plan.  I have never felt better!
