Time to FINALLY make a change

It happens to everyone, 

That moment when you realize that it’s time to do something about your weight.

It may happen when you’re looking in the mirror or standing on the scale.

Your first thought is to go on a ‘diet’ but as quickly as that enters your mind the ghosts of a hundred diets past return…along with all the frustration.

Then you wonder, why bother?

The weight will come back, as it always has. Then you’ll be back in front of the mirror as discouraged as ever.

The answer is not to go on another diet.

The answer is to create a vision and make it a priority.

Creating a Vision. What exactly do you wish to accomplish? If it’s weight loss, exactly how much weight? What size will you be when your goal is accomplished? Can you picture what you’ll look and feel like? Take time to clearly visualize what you really want to accomplish. This is your vision.

Make it a Priority. Having a vision is great, but unless you make it a priority it will get lost and fade away. Embrace simple, small changes that will add up to big improvements in your lifestyle. Starting small allows you to stick with it, and to build upon your success. These are your main venues for change:

What You Eat. Let’s face it, most of the foods you eat aren’t the healthiest. Some are downright terrible (the burger and fries you had this weekend). While others are simply excessive (the snacks you eat while watching TV).

The solution to cleaning up your daily diet is NOT to go back on a ‘diet’. In fact, I never want you to go on a ‘diet’ again. (Yes, you heard me right!) Instead I want you to make permanent healthy changes to your eating habits.

Here are some practical examples:

• Choose salad over chips or fries
• Don’t add butter to your food
• Eat fresh produce with every meal
• Limit desserts to one per week
• Cut out mindless snacking
• Drink water, not soda

I don’t expect you to eat a perfect diet every day of the week – that’d be very difficult. You should, however, make MORE healthy choices every day than unhealthy ones.

How You Move. Exercise is a huge component to a healthy lifestyle, and quite frankly you’re not getting enough of it. How often does an entire week go by without you ever lacing up your tennis shoes? Don’t disregard the importance and power of a good workout.

Your new healthy lifestyle means exercising on most days of the week. This may seem tough, but I have the perfect solution – the way we train our clients were created for busy people just like you who only have so much time to dedicate to exercise. We work smarter without overtraining. You only have so much time in a day. Our training sessions are only 45 minutes long!

I understand how hard it is to find the motivation to stay consistent and to push yourself. Make exercise a no-brainer—contact me to get started on a lifestyle enhancing program today.

Here are simple ways to move more:

• Watch less TV
• Stretch stiff muscles every day
• Play at the park with the kids
• Go for a jog

Your lifestyle is the balance of all the choices that you make regarding your body. Swing the balance in your favor—make a majority of your choices health conscious.

So the next time you’re in front of the mirror you won’t worry about your weight.

You’ll relish it.

Are you ready to transform your lifestyle and body?

Lost 70 lbs

Body Fat 36.4% to 22.6%

Lost 14% Body Fat

Last December, my husband approached me about us setting a goal of getting healthier in 2023. So, we made an appointment to talk to Rob at RobZFitness, who was recommended to him by our primary care physician Dr. Shawn Wallace. Upon meeting with Rob, we both decided it was time to commit to a healthier way of life. With the help of Rob and Taylor, and the support of each other, we have lost about 170 pounds total over the last 8-10 months. I have lost 70 pounds and lost 14% body fat in 10 month. My overall fitness level was at 15% when I started and now its at 88% for women at my age.

Like a lot of women, I have struggled with my weight all my life, especially after kids. This time my weight loss feels different. I wasn’t sure what to expect in the beginning, but I am surprised at how much stronger I’ve become, and the weight seem to just come off, losing an average of 2 pounds a week. I am 5’10 and I haven’t weighed under 200lbs in years. Now I weigh 195. With Rob and Taylor’s encouragement, I am pushing myself to get stronger and doing exercises I never thought I could accomplish. I have a few limitations with my knees but both Rob and Taylor worked around it and still push me to get stronger.  

Rob focused more on strengthening during his sessions and I am lifting amounts I never imagined. Taylor designated Wednesdays as Carolyn’s Core night. With his help, I am doing core exercises that I never thought I was capable of. With the support of Rob, Taylor and my husband who encouraged me all the way, I am stronger and healthier than I’ve been in a long time.  

Thank you for helping me get stronger and healthier.

Lost 31.5 lbs, Size 8 to “0” – 3 Months

“As a mother of 2 and business owner, I felt as if I had tried everything humanly possible to get in the best shape for my health and overall well-being with the time and resources I had available to me. I had been dedicated to cardio exercise and strength building for years, but was not seeing the results I thought I should be seeing. I decided it was time to go to the experts.”

“I looked at a couple of possibilities, and determined that if I wanted the best results, I needed to go to a proven source of expertise.  I had seen RobZFitness testimonials and heard about the results and after doing some research on what I should expect and gathering a great deal of courage, I decided to walk in their door.  I found RobZ staff to be very welcoming, encouraging and knowledgeable.  As hard as I had tried all these years, many of the exercises were incorrect in technique, not enough weight, or just simply not pushing beyond what I thought I was capable of doing.”

“The results were fast and furious– I was amazed at how simple the theory of exercise and healthy eating really was, and although not one for pressing myself in the area of physical fitness, I found the benefits FAR outweigh the sweat equity.”

“Not only did I surprisingly drop 31.5 lbs of body fat and a 14.1% body fat change the first three months (a welcome plus), but lost 19 total inches (6.5” waist and 4” thigh, etc.) and was seeing visible sculpting.  I had walked in hoping to tone up, which I did, but found so much more. Rob mentioned at the beginning I was in better shape than 20% of women my age and now I am in better shape than 91% of women. I suffered from migraines since adolescence and being on RobZ plan, I did not have one migraine- which to me, was nothing short of a miracle.  The trainers helped me to understand the dynamics behind balancing food intake and how this affected the chemical balance in my system.  I had never looked forward to working out the way I have while working at RobZ.  The workouts turned out to be the biggest stress relief of my life and the education I received will follow me and motivate me for a lifetime.  My only regret is that I did not walk into RobZ sooner!  What are you waiting for?”

“Tired Of Having No Energy”

Just like a lot of couples that after being married we never were concerned by our weight and health. We were tired of having no energy and clothes that were fitting tighter and tighter. My low back pain and Larry’s high blood pressure were a couple of deciding factors that we had actively do something now before it was too late.

We first met Rob for our initial consultation and it was an eye opener. My weight was 167 lbs. with 30.9% body fat and Larry’s weight was 217 lbs. with 29.3%. Rob was incredibly helpful in explaining our present condition and designing our training regimen to put us on a new path of a healthier lifestyle. If it wasn’t for Rob’s help and training, we would not have succeeded the way we did. His perseverance in making sure we kept to the exercise plan and doing it correctly is how we knew we were in good hands. Rob answered any questions we had, whether it was about low back pain, fatigue, and they made sure that what we ate was right or wrong.

After three months at RobZFitness we have both had a significant weight loss and we feel so much better having an active and healthy lifestyle. My weight is now down to 146 lbs and at 21% body fat. and Larry’s weight is now 178 lbs and 14% body fat. 

Thank you from the bottom of our healthy hearts for starting us on a journey to a long and healthy lifestyle together.

Chandler Beattie

I started with at RobZFitness, at age 14, for a few reasons.  The first was my doctor informed me that my cholesterol was high and I needed more exercise to help lower it.  Next, I knew it was what I needed to do to in order to look and feel my best.  I had recently started watching WWE (wrestling) and wanted a fit body like those athletes.  Lastly, I was ready to change, but had been unsuccessful with staying committed on my own.  I asked my mom to bring me to a “jacked” trainer.  Since my dad trained with Rob at RobZFitness in years past with great results, it only made sense to also bring me there.

November 2025 is when I first started at Rob and committed to 12 sessions up front.  Having scheduled pre-workout times helped me stay on track for my home workouts I did in between RobZ sessions.  I started using a fitness watch to track my heart rate and calories burned to help me stay motivated and workout longer.  RobZ advice to never skip breakfast and make sure I consumed enough protein in a day made all the difference.  I went from hardly ever eating breakfast to always drinking a protein smoothie in the morning.  Instead of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, I switched to chicken in my lunches for school.  I also cut down on mindless snacking and sweets.  I even turned down cake on my birthday!

Before I started training with RobZ, I felt weak and out of shape.  Now, I feel so much stronger and more athletic. After 3 months I have dropped my cholesterol from 217-154 and I have lost 20lbs, lost 11.2% of body fat and gained plenty of strength. I improved my overall fitness for boys my age from 15% to 64%. My clothes are looser and I need to buy smaller pants. I have lost 3.23” in my chest, down 3-4” around my waist and hips.  I am also more disciplined and efficient throughout the entire day no matter what I’m doing.  I am excited to keep going on my fitness journey as I continue to build more muscle and confidence.  

– Chandler B (14 years old)
