  1. Bill H. Success Story

    I chose Bill to be our 2011 client of the year because of the very valuable lesson he learned with regard to his nutrition. We featured his client success story one year ago having no idea that he desired to take his health regime any further. He surprised us all by reducing his overall composition by another 6.21%, losing an additional 15#’s of body fat and gaining another 2#’s of muscle. We’re not sure he’s done yet! Wow! Way to go Bill!

    Bill Hardcastle

    Age 65 · Corpus Christi, TX · Dub’s Garage Owner

    Lost 15 lbs of Fat

    Gained Strength, Endurance, Muscle

    Favorite Healthy Meal: Grilled Tilapia, Fresh Veggies, Brown Rice

    Favorite Free Day Food: Apple Turnovers & Margaritas (not at the same time)

    Toughest Eating Obstacle Overcome: I didn’t believe I was eating that bad until I wrote it all down. I didn’t think the program Lisa was suggesting would “actually” make this big of a difference.

    Current Exercise Routine: Combination of strength & cardio, 3x weekly, 45 min sessions. Two days of private kickboxing or step classes for 30 min with Terry. Saturday runs for 30 min to an hour.

    Favorite Benefit of This Lifestyle: Feels like I can do things that I could do when I was younger like running, chasing kids. I would like to start to swim again.

    Bill Hardcastle owner of Dubs Garage came to us back in September of 2008. His origional goal was to get “LEANER and INCREASE MUSCLE”! In less than six months Bill’s stats were as follows:

    • Body Composition decrease of 3.18%
    • Muscle gain of 1.5#s
    • Fat Loss of 7.5#s
    • Overall inches loss of 3.5″

    A body composition and fitness analysis determined that Bill’s primary concern was to lose fat and at least maintain his muscularity. In other words, he was already strong and just had a little muscular “waking up” to do!

    Bill continues to trust us with his fitness and is a joy to train. At 64 years old, he motivates ALL the other clients in the gym and keeps us hopping with new ways to challenge him. My hope is he will motive YOU!

    Congratulations Bill!
