Over the past three months, Wendy Carvalho-Ashby has coached me throughout a transition I cannot explain in words.
I have dedicated my time towards reaching healthier lifestyle habits and working towards a physique of a fitness competitor. After years of competitive soccer, I had grown into an athletic body that was built for speed and had hit a point of plateau. I wanted to change my physique to become more balanced, and with the guidance of Wendy, I have begun the process of achieving this.
This process has been very eye opening and has given me a better understanding of why nutrition is so important. I now have a better relationship with food, which has become more of a fuel for my body rather than the center of social gatherings. Wendy has helped me to eliminate foods that I am sensitive to and gear me towards a healthier, long-term approach. I have learned to take each day at a time and to remember that with patience, I will reach my goals if I continue to work hard and stay motivated. I always remind myself why I train the way I do and if I slip one day that it’s not the end of the world but to get back on track and continue to see progress.
I wake up in the mornings feeling energized and eager to hit the gym for another great training session. Wendy, Thank you for all your motivation and support. I look forward to continuing this life changing process!
