I was encouraged to workout with Andrew by a friend. Honestly, I thought….why? I already took aerobic classes and worked out, and I didn’t want to pay the extra money. What would be the difference? The difference was: Andrew changed the way I thought about working out, he changed my body, he gave my self-confidence a boost, and he became a great friend! I know, it is hard to be friends with your trainer, however, Andrew was different. I respected him for what he was doing for me, and he respected me as his client. I am not going to lie, it is tough but if you are in the right frame of mind and want to change your physique, change your attitude, and live longer, then working out with Andrew is a MUST!

Almost 4 years ago, while at an orthodontic conference in Palm Springs, CA. I met an owner of a software firm from Chicago by chance. He recognized me as a “wannabe” fitness buff as I had been out for a morning run. He introduced me to a fitness regimen called “SuperSlow.” I returned from California and began my search. Fortunately, I found an instructor very close by. My plan was to “try it” for a few months and then simply do it and go on my own. Rich Brown, my trainer, easily demonstrated to me over the past 4 years of the incredible benefits of the technique but, more importantly, the role a professional trainer provides. Measurable results are a 10 pound weight loss over a 3 year span (my weight is about 140 and that never a goal but a byproduct.), increased faster 10k times, and appreciably better up hill running. Time management is part of my DNA and the efficiency Rich provides in the training session is amazing. Anyone who places a high value on health and efficiency will find this to be beyond belief. And, Rich is not too bad of a guy either; although during the session one wonders, “And I’m paying good money for this!”

I have been participating in the Super slow program with Andrew now for 6 years and prior to him I was involved in Super slow for another 4 years. This has been throughout my 40’s when maintaining your muscle mass gets harder and harder with each passing birthday. Just going one day a week has enabled me to maintain and keep muscle tone. Andrew is a great instructor. He is patient but knows when you need to be pushed a little harder. I would recommend that you get started in a program with him now. You won’t be sorry and you’ll look and feel better.
