Long post warning, but good stories always take a little time to tell.Seems like a long time ago, but in 2018 I sat in my doctor's office listening to some pretty rough test results. At one point, he even told me that on my current path I was going to die. His recommendation, was prescription based. In his defense, he had been telling me to change my lifestyle for a long time, but at this point, I had let things get out of hand. I had high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, and I was pre-diabetic. My weight at my heaviest was around 260. I begged him to give me time. I didn't want the list of complications that came along with the medicine added to an already long list of issues I was experiencing due to my poor health. September 2018, I left my doctor's office at one of the lowest points in my life with a list of precriptions and a follow up appointment.I spent the next 2 months wrestling with fad diets, researching quick fixes, and generally doing the same thing I did every other time. My weight fluctuated some, but it wasn't going to be sustainable, as I wasn't really committed to the change, and saw anything I was doing a bridge to continue a lifestyle ultimately detrimental to my health.Thank God for my wife!For our wedding anniversary in December, she signed us up at 2nd Chance Fitness on a 21 day challenge. I met Shawn Serfass for my weigh in, initial measurements, was given a meal plan, and told that if I put in the work, I could drop weight and get in better shape. Me being me, I was sceptical. I made excuses for why the meal plan wouldn't work, or why I couldn't do the exercise. Shawn gave me things I could do to make the diet fit my issues, and encouraged me to give the exercise a try. I even remember hearing go at your own pace at one point. I tried to make excuses for why it wasn't going to work, but Nancy reminded me, that she had paid for this, and I was going to at least try.I showed up to the first workout. About 30 minutes later, covered in sweat and breathing hard, I had survived. I will not say that I did all the exercises correctly, or that I looked good doing them, but I did do them. I modified my meal plan to fit into my lifestyle, but followed the recommendations of the trainers.That first week was hard, but the second was harder. One of the issues I dealt with alot due to my weight was complications from allergies. During my second week of the challenge, I ended up needing a steroid shot, and was told no workouts for a few days. I continued to eat per plan. In total, I probably only got to workout 7 times in that initial 21 day challenge. I weighed in on my anniversary, December 24th. My expectations were not high. After all, I had missed almost a full week of workouts, and how effective could this really be. The scale was down 14 lbs. It took a minute for that to sink in. This small change had manifested in 14 lbs dropped in 21 days. I was ready to keep going, so I signed up for membership.In my first 60 days, I was down 30 lbs. At my six month checkup, I was down 40lbs, and the test results indicated that through diet and exercise, I had dropped all those bad numbers. Cholesterol and triglycerides were down, blood pressure was normal, and my blood sugar was low. Nevertheless, my dr scheduled a followup to see where I was in 6 months, and to ensure I kept it up. At that appointment, Sept 2019, I was down 60 lbs, and he was asking me for advice. I completed my 1yr weigh in at 69 lbs down.Weight 258 at my heaviest - 189 @ 1yrChest 47 in start - 40 in @ 1yrStomach 47 in start - 34 @ 1yrHips 46.5 in start - 40 @ 1 yrBodyfat over 37% start - 18% @ 1yrThe things I learned here have helped me to maintain the weight I lost, even during all the Covid lockdowns.If you are looking for a change, Shawn and his team can definately help you on a path to better health.

This is the best place to work out! 30 minutes! The staff is like a family. The owner is very knowledgeable and so motivating to everyone during each session. I love going there and will never.

I have been to a bunch of gyms before and this one is BY FAR my favorite! The trainers are outstanding, the equipment is extremely clean, and the environment is like a family. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this gym!!!
