Personalized Fitness & Nutrition
January 4, 2011
We met Patrick about two months before my second figure competition – I needed help with posing and knew that having a professional guide my diet would improve my presentation. With little time, Patrick taught me how to showcase my hard work in the gym, and wrote a diet that tightened me up into the leanest I had ever been. His guidance helped me earn 2nd place in my height class at the Arnold Amateur in 2009!
While I was deployed in Iraq, my husband started training with Patrick, with the goal of stepping onto the competitive bodybuilding stage again after a 10-year break. Patrick showed him techniques and exercises to improve his weak body parts, and how to maximize his strengths. He wrote both our diets, and we were able to achieve the dream we had of competing together in a show in the spring of 2010. After many more weeks of posing practice and Patrick’s diet, I was thrilled to place in the top five in my height class at my first National level show – winning a 4th place trophy at Jr. Nationals! My husband wasn’t finished yet, and with Patrick’s help he continued training, posing and leaning down. In October of 2010, he brought a lean, tight package to his next bodybuilding competition, and was rewarded with 4th place in the open Middleweight division at the Red River Championship.
As a dual physician couple, we probably weren’t always the easiest clients! Patrick seemed to anticipate our questions about the ‘why’ and ‘how’ of the diet and training program, providing detailed explanations when we wanted them. He also was a great source of motivation during training sessions, posing practice, on-line and often just during the random 5-minute phone calls to check in on our progress.
Although competing is an important aspect of our lives, the thing for which we are most grateful to Patrick is emphasizing a healthy way of life with a clean diet. The lessons we have learned from him regarding principles of exercise and nutrition have become the foundation of our lifestyle, which we will carry with us long after we leave the competitive stage.
