A little more than 10 weeks ago The Mo and Sally morning show on Kool 105.5 FM( http://loser.1055online.com/main.html ) launched a “Biggest Loser” contest for Palm Beach County. Ten local residents would compete for 10 weeks to see who could lose the most weight during that time. The winner would be crowned Palm Beach County’s Biggest Loser and would win a all expense paid cruise to the Caribbean.
The World Gym’s in Palm Beach County donated the facilities where these losers could workout and Director of Personal Training, Rafael Moret, donated the trainers. Each contestant would have unlimited access to the World Gym of their choice and a professional fitness trainer would meet with them at least once per week for the 10 week contest to develop their exercise programs and supervise the meal plans. Now even though the trainer all have different styles of training and meal planning, the basic principles were the same, no fad or crash diet can replace supportive eating and the right amount of resistance and cardiovascular training.
The contestant would have random weigh-ins during the contest and would be guest on The Mo and Sally morning show to go over their work out plans and all the changes in their lifestyle. The results were, after 10 weeks the contestants lost a combined 297lbs and made some very important lifestyle changes. Not only did they lose weight but they got into the habit of exercising and making better decisions about what they were eating. “The long term results of something like this still can not be measured.” says Rafael. “Adopting a healthier life style is not just something that helps you physically…it’s mentally stimulating and emotional empowering.” Quick fixes are good but going in to the gym and working with your fitness coach and watching your body transform every week is a lot more rewarding.

"Thinking Of Hiring a Trainer?
Here Are5 Alternatives That May Save You Time, Effort,and Money!
Alternative #1: Continue to avoid fitnessThis is a sure way to save time, effort, andmoney, and it's easy! Unfortunately, it's alsoa route that’s physically detrimental. Why chooseto be tired, sluggish, and mellow, when you canbe energized, healthy, and excited for life! (That’s what exercise is all about!)
Alternative #2: Continue to procrastinateProcrastination is natural, especially when itcomes to exercise. However, it only takes a smallamount of discipline to get going.If you don't generate the discipline, you'lltend to feel that tomorrow you’ll have more time,more money, and more motivation. That's silly, thatnever happens.This is procrastination’s biggest deception! Procrastination saves you time, effort, and money,but leads you to worry, doubt, and depression....and in this case...physical deterioration!
Alternative #3. Continue to look for “Trainer of Utopia”“Utopia” is a word that means "perfection" or"happiness". Sometimes, when we’re searching fora trainer, we wait for the “Trainer of Utopia”to appear, i.e., the perfect trainer, in the perfectlocation, for the perfect price, that gives us theperfect feeling, and at the perfect time.Let me let you in on a little secret....that isperfectly impossible! It obviously doesn’t happen! Trainer of Utopia will save you time, effort, and money,but it’s not a reality, it’s never going to open!It's never going to happen! Living in the land ofmake believe won't get usinto shape.Make the most of reality and your current situationby remembering that commitment determines yoursuccess and nothing else!
Alternative # 4: Continue to think you may want todo it on your ownBefore we consider hiring a trainer, wealways think of all the possible alternatives.Doing it on your own, at home, in the park, walking,jogging, running, or other similar options alwayscome to mind. Doing it on your own saves you time,effort, and money, but it’s conveniently ineffective!Why? Working out at home is convenient but becomesineffective because the results stop due to minimalequipment and variety. Plus it gets so boring. Ask any of your friends whohave the treadmill or exercise bike sitting dustyin their spare room.(Some home equipment may begood for hanging clothes.)
Alternative #5: Continue to wait for your spouseor training partner to rise to the occasionSome people want to workout with their friendor family member. They feel they’ll get betterresults due to the motivation. This rarely happensand never works out the way people originally planit to!
If you depend on someone else to motivate you toworkout with, you most certainly will have a shortexperience with exercise.Exercise is an individual decision. You make thecommitment and decide you’re going to do it alone! If your spouse or friends want to come along forthe ride, that’s great---but it shouldn’t effectyour success either way!!
You’re doing this for your goals, your body, yourhealth, your energy, your mindset, not anyoneelse's!
Make the commitment today.
That's theonly alternative.

Local Fitness Coach Launches Website Providing Free Fitness Information for Delray Beach Residents
The director of Personal Fitness Coaching for the all World Gym's in Palm Beach County, Rafael Moret, launched a new website providing free fitness information for Delray Beach residents. "With all of the advertising and marketing behind dieting and fitness information there is to day, the need for REAL and true fitness information is overwhelming," says Rafael. "The amount of false advertising and misconceptions is creating a lot of confusion in our community."The new site, www.DelrayBeachFitnessExpert.com , provides free reports for people looking to lose weight, golf fitness, sports performance, pre and post natal exercise, pre-wedding and more. Everyone's fitness needs are different, so to provide general information for everyone is unrealistic. That is why they offer so many different categories. A golfer's needs are going to be different than those of a mom who just had a baby."As fitness professionals we have a responsibility to our community. Personal training is not rep counting and it's not providing workouts," says Moret. "It is delivering fitness results and empowering people by educating them." We live in an age where people want instant gratification. The new website does just that. It gives people the information they are looking for now. The time it take to achieve any fitness results will vary, but if you have the information needed to get started right away, there is no excuse for waiting.
