LifeStories

David V.
Our featured LifeStory for April 2020
I have been able to lower my cholesterol by 45 points since my last blood work one year ago, as well as blood pressure as well as losing 35 pounds since April!
My ongoing success story with LifeStart started with my assessment. It was an eye opener for me, I would highly encourage everyone to do it. As scary as it was for me it was the best decision I made for my health and general well being.

Since I started personal training three times a week in April this year I have had trainers who have motivated and inspired me to push ahead.

With nutritional improvements, three personal training sessions a week, as well as training on my own using their advice I have been able to lower my cholesterol by 45 points since my last blood work one year ago, as well as blood pressure as well as losing 35 pounds since April!

My journey continues but with the help of my LifeStart trainer I'm sure they'll continue to keep me on the right path
