Xtreme Advantage Open-Faced Salmon Sandwich

Hello my name is Taylor! I'm am 26 years old and currently getting my doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology. I have been training at Xtreme Advantage since September 2020. I signed up for the Small Group Training Package with the overall desire for a healthy lifestyle change. More specifically, my goals were to develop better eating habits, lose body fat (body fat percentage was about 47%), increase my endurance, and tone muscles. I was coming in to train 3 times a week for 10 weeks, in the evening for 30 minutes. On the days I did not have my training sessions, I attempted to do cardio exercises for at least 30+ minutes for 3 days out of the week. I really appreciate the safety precautions that were taken to make clients feel safe to workout despite being in the midst of a pandemic. I also loved the individualized attention during sessions and my specialized No X-cuse Nutritional Guidance Plan that was provided to me. I started my journey only eating an average of 1-2 meals a day with minimal snacking to eating 4-5 healthy meals. Increasing my food intake was not only important for my overall functioning, but I noticed my metabolism appeared to increase as well. During the fifth week, I could notice my endurance building up and it was easier for me to get through the HIIT style workouts without feeling overly exhausted. By week 8, I could tell that my body was beginning to tone, especially around my glutes and legs. Thank you, Harold Irby, for this experience! I would suggest if you're thinking about starting a healthy lifestyle change, come to Xtreme Advantage! 

Approximately 1½ years ago I weighed 245 lbs. I was running 3 to 4 miles about three times a week and trained with weights about three times a week. All and all I thought I was in pretty good shape and wasn’t really thinking about losing weight and was pretty satisfied with my physical condition, until I went to a Doctor’s appointment. My physician told me that my blood pressure was very high and that I was really overweight for my height. My physician then told me that he was going to put me on high blood pressure medication and a diet (which seemed like an impossible diet to be committed too). I asked him if I could ever get off of the medication and he told me that if I lose weight I possibly could. When I left the doctor’s office I got in my car and called Harold and told him that I needed to lose weight because my health depended on it. Harold told me not to worry and that he would create me a diet (his No X-cuse Meal Plan) that would get the weight off me. I also asked Harold questions about my workout and he gave me some sound advice on a few changes I needed to make. 6 months later, after following the No X-cuse Meal Plan Harold gave me, I weigh 208 pounds, off medication and my blood pressure has been in the normal range. I feel great and everyone is asking me how I lost all my weight and what my secret is. I feel much better, my workouts are much better, my health is great and I look much younger than I use too. I tell everyone that my only secret is Harold Irby!!!!!!!

I joined Xtreme Advantage because I decided that if I wanted to be a better me, then I had to work on becoming a better me. Sitting on the sofa was easy and so was gaining 30 pounds. My body had started aching and I felt so unhealthy. I have a gym membership that I wasn’t using because I needed structure and direction around weights in a gym, someone to give me a program where I could see results. Harold was able to provide me with a fitness plan which included HIIT workouts that worked EVERY part of my body. He customized a program specifically to me, Harold would show me an exercise two ways, the proper way and a modified version. I would always attempt the proper way to perform the exercise but sometimes I needed to do the modified version. Harold always demonstrated the new moves and made sure I knew what I was doing before I started my sets. I feel confident in doing my exercises but each one is a new challenge. I’ve been working with Harold twice a week for 24 consecutive weeks doing the Xclusive 1on1 Sessions and Small Group Training. I now have energy after work to accomplish things versus hopping on the sofa and looking at television. I love the way my clothes fit and the way I look in them. Some of them have gotten too big. This is a process that requires dedication. I want to thank Xtreme Advantage for giving me the tools and support to become a HEALTHIER ME.
