My name is Jared Countess and at the age of 10 I weighed 200lbs and was labeled clinically obese. I struggled with my weight, my self-worth and finding direction almost my entire life. It wasn't until I found a fit and healthy lifestyle that I truly gained self-confidence. When I started to help others find themselves through being physically fit and mentally healthy that I found self-worth. Through my own experience I have learned building self-confidence is not easy. So, one of my passions with my career is assisting others to find their self-worth, confidence and finding their own identity. I find that many simply struggle because they do not know the way, rather than lacking desire or drive. After having my own obese issues, diet issues, social unacceptance and overall appearance and self-confidence issues, fighting is the only option. I have also learned having a great support team around you can increase and fast track this for each client I am privileged to work with. I take pride on the referral business I have built and continue to create through current and past clients. It is human nature to help each other and this is a critical part of my being and my WHY with my business. Helping others whether they deal with extreme cases of obesity, diet, overall health or dealing with professional athletes get to the next level, my goal is my client’s goal. However, I create the correct and healthy path to improve overall health, fitness and getting them back on the right track and breaking bad habits, bad form and overall years of physical abuse. The fitness industry is full of myths, magical supplements, short cuts, that beat yourself into the ground mentally and emotionally which set you up for FAILURE. I have tried every method and what I have found are short cuts, and promises that again lead to failure. There is no short-cut to success. This is no different when it comes to your health and fitness. Hard work, diet while enjoying and building your confidence will always be more successful than any “magic pill”. The real key to life achieving fitness goals is blending workouts with your diet in the proper way. What I have also discovered through many years and many hours of research is there is no ONE method. Knowing each client, their individual diets, body type, gene, daily routine and overall DNA allows me to set them up for success. When my clients succeed, I succeed. For example, a professional sprinter will have a completely different workout than a marathon runner. Diet, exercise, weights, sleep habits and overall lifestyles will be completely different. Also, believe it or not, men and women are built very different, their hip alignment for example must be recognized and treated individually. As I increase my knowledge and clientele, this allows me to continue to grow in my overall knowledge and education. I pride myself in this continued education and growing my own knowledge as life, technology, medicine and fitness continues to progress. I enjoy the constant challenge of keeping on the cutting edge of fitness and how I can continue to improve for myself and each of my clients. Jared Countess
