Amy Kok Testimonial
Testimonial
________________________________
From: Amy Kok

It’s been about one month since I joined Fitness Concepts.
The results are starting to really show through. I have loss over 17 pounds; inches are melting off my body.
When I first inquired about the program, I didn’t think I would be this motivated and see results this quickly.
I thought this must be another program that may work for some and probably not for me, but what the heck, I’ll try it.
Dr. Saman told me that I was on the borderline of being obese, I am only 26 years old. How can I be obese?
I can’t be, just a couple short years ago, I was in pretty good shape.
I want to look and feel young again, without having to shop at the plus size store.
I have two young kids, 4 & 2, am I going to be able to keep up with them at the park, or am I going to sit on the bench and have trouble breathing everytime I move?
Dr. Saman helped me set goals & steps in helping me achieve that goal.
He held a nutrition seminar that both my husband and I attended, what an eye opener
Immediately, Dr. Saman motivated us so much, we went home and cleaned out our fridge and pantry.
Donated all of our hamburger helper, canned soups,cookies, pastas, etc. to the local food bank.
Dr. Saman showed us how to shop for our food, how to eat, his blogs on how to order food at a fast food restaurant, how to control your portions.
Between Dr. Saman, Armando, Maria Macias (master trainer), I am working hard to lose the weight, gain muscle, learning how to workout the correct way.
This is just the beginning for me, I look forward to a bright future with Fitness Concepts.
You have truly proved that your program works as long as you have the drive, willpower, visualize what and how you want to feel.
Kind regards, Amy Kok

The new year is approaching fast and year after year “the new year resolution people” are gung ho about going to the gym and getting in shape for the new year.
We already know 95% fail because of lack of accountability.
“The Boiling Fog Phenomenon” is another reason that the 95% quite after only a few weeks.
As your personal trainer and coach it is my duty to educate you for long term success.
If you’ve ever yo-yo’d on a diet or tried to start an exercise program, but couldn’t stick to it, this one is for you.
The following single bit of information has been a “game changer” for many who used to struggle.
It all boils down to …
“The Boiling Frog Phenomenon”
It’s a psychological phenomenon that dates back to research conducted at Johns Hopkins University way back in 1882.
Here’s how it works.
Imagine you want to cook a frog …
If you throw a frog into a pot of boiling water, it will jump out. But if you place a frog into a pot of lukewarm water and slowly turn up the heat, it will stay happily inside the pot … and before the frog realizes what is happening … you have frog soup.
The human nervous system works much the same way.
If you try to introduce a radical change in your life, your system fights back – much like the frog jumping out of the pot of boiling water.
To create lasting change – you simply have to slowly turn up the heat …
Over time, these tiny changes are almost imperceptible to your nervous system, but over time they add up to HUGE transformations.
This is similar to the Japanese concept of “kaizen” whereby one makes small constant improvements that eventually add up and make a radical difference.
Want to see how it works?
Let’s say you want to lose 10 pounds.
Knowing the Boiling Frog technique, you know that making a sudden, dramatic change in your diet and exercise habits won’t likely stick.
It’s too much of a shock to the system.
A smarter way to go is make a more gradual change like this:
Week 1 – Stop drinking canned sodas. Instead drink water.
That’s it! Don’t do anything else. Just that one change.
Then …
Week 2 – Take long brisk walks every other day
And so on …
At the end of a year you’ll have a whole new set of habits and you’ll be a totally different person.
And you know what?
It will stick!
