The POWER Transformation

2007 is definitely the year for transformation, in so many ways. We are starting off February with a great partnership and program to work with 10 individuals over a period of 12 weeks. Exercise & Nutrition Works, Inc. in partnership with Bobby Kelly of Results Only, LLC are kicking off February with the POWER Transformation 12 week program.

So what is The POWER Transformation you ask? Well, in a nutshell, we are working with a group of motivated individuals in the Phoenix area, and providing them the opportunity to make an unbelievable body transformation over the following 12 weeks. We are teaming up to give each participant a guaranteed blueprint for changing the way they look and feel forever.

Here is the deal: Each participant will commit to staying on the program for 12 weeks (this time is necessary to see real change and to make cardiovascular, strength, and nutritional gains to ensure your success). We will take before and after photos to show the amazing results you will achieve in those 12 weeks. Each participant will follow the fitness, nutrition and supplementation schedule Bobby and I prescribe. Each participant will agree to a body fat test on the first and last day, AND you must smile through the whole thing (you will, naturally).

Obviously we will outline everything in detail on February 5th (in Phoenix), however please feel free to contact Lisa or I for more information if you are interested in attending. Remember, the overall winner will receive FREE tuition to our Lifestyle Seminar in Southern California (valued at over $7,000) next September.

Now, continuing with the Transformation theme, Lisa is putting herself out there to fulfill her goal for 2007. She "kicked ass" this last week as we did a bit of a tweak to her meal plan. She is now on the zig-zag plan, and her body really responded to it. Here are her stats for last week:

Lost 3.25 pounds (this is huge for Lisa, especially in one week)
Lost 1.49% Body Fat (excellent)
Lost .43 pounds of lean mass (a little dehydrated at weigh in - this should be a gain)
Lost 2.72 pounds of FAT (Really excellent, probably due to the change in program)

Lisa here: Listen out there - especially ladies!! I am 44 years old, and will be competing in my first Figure Competition in 12 weeks. I feel SOOO great right now. I am eating clean (very clean) and training hard - Thanks to Iron Mike Boticelli - Mr. San Diego 2007 (he pushes me hard and I LOVE it), and I have more energy and motivation than ever. You know it is hard to see the changes on yourself, but people at the gym have definitely noticed and they let me know it!

I know that it is still early and it will get much tougher in the next month or 2. However for NOW, I am feeling fantastic and I am very focused on this goal. My point here is that when you set your Intention, clearly state your goal (I have mine written down on 3x5 cards and read them each night and morning) and see your vision, YOU CAN ACHIEVE SUCCESS! This is as true in business as it is in your personal life.

So, go ahead - start your nutrition program, exercise program, business development - whatever it might be!

See you next time,

Lisa & Lucho

Progress Report

Here I am getting ready for work!! :) That's how I feel most days.
As I said before - I feel great! My meal plan is changing so I know the hard work is just beginning. However, I am off to a great start. Week 2 stats: lost 1.42% BF, .20 lbs, increased 2.14 lbs lean mass and lost 1.94 lbs. of fat!

Week 3: -.62%BF, -1lb., +.08lbs lean mass and -1.08lbs of fat!! SNAP!!

We met with our Mastermind group this past week, so my week 3 results were while travelling - I feel really good about that. Of course we worked hard on our business, and set our plans in action for the year. What an amazing group of people. We came away with some new JV projects that are going to be really exciting and planning has begun on our BIG event in South Orange County the end of the summer. Stay tuned...

Of course, make sure to keep an eye out for the launch of our new website - and in the meantime, you can always read new articles and check out all of our great nutritional products at Exercise & Nutrition Works, Inc.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Welcome 2007!!! We are looking forward to an another amazing year. As a way to jump start the events, I have set a pretty BIG personal goal for myself, and am putting it "out there" for all who care follow along.

I (Lisa) will be competing in my first fitness competition (figure) in a few months, and am training hard to reach my new goals. Of course, Lucho is my Nutrition Coach on this endeavor and has me on my new meal plan. This is so great because not only is he supporting my goal, he is joining closely with me in our eating program. We are planning and fixing all of our meals together so I don't feel like I am missing out on anything - which I'm not!!

I feel so GREAT eating clean!! I have so much energy that I can get right up at 5:00 a.m. to training for 2+ hours at the gym with my trainer - Iron Mike (Mr. San Diego 2007)!!

So, my week one results were -3.29 lbs of fat, +1.59 lbs of muscle, -1.7 lbs, and -2.04% total body fat. WooHoo!! I just need to keep this up for the next 4 months!!

I'm not ready to show my "before" pictures yet, however I will keep you posted on my progress. I would love to hear any words of encouragement, hints, tips, suggestions, etc if you wish to pipe in.

To your Health, Wealth & Success
