| - I'm going to start this review by using the old cliched adage, 'if I can do it, anyone can do it.' And while true, I knew I couldn't do it on my own...and that's where Shawn comes in.
During Memorial Day weekend, I decided to make a change. I knew I needed to get in shape, lose weight, and be healthier if I was to actually accomplish the goals I had set for myself. I knew I wanted (nay, needed) to hire a personal trainer, I just had to find one...a good one. I searched Yelp and found 'Get Results Personal Training' and read the great reviews. I wrote Shawn's info down thinking he was a top candidate, but also wanting to exhaust all my options, I googled 'Las Vegas personal trainers' and used Thumbtack. Lo and behold, Shawn was the first to respond to my criteria. After speaking with him, he offered a free assessment that was able to be scheduled for the same day.
After spending some time doing a few exercises (I was definitely out of shape), he patiently sat down and discussed my goals and what he could offer (his background, the workouts, nutrition and supplement information, motivation, etc.). Before going into this, I had 3 criteria I felt the person must meet (besides the obvious of being qualified): be patient, be personable, and have a real desire (and ability) to motivate. I could tell his level of patience was high with all the questions I asked. And though I don't have bouts of spontaneity often when it comes to major decisions, I hired him before I left.
Fast forward to today where I'm just a little over half way through my 40 sessions, I have no doubt in my mind that Shawn was the right choice to help me achieve something I wasn't sure possible. He had already proved his patience in the beginning, but his personality helped calm the introvert in me down and gave me the bout of confidence I needed to keep going while his ability to motivate helped push me through when my brain kept telling me it was too hard.
In just under two months, I have seen incredible changes. Shawn has helped me work my behind off (both literally and figuratively) and I can't be happier with the results. I still have a ways to go to reach my ultimate goal, but I know it's possible to achieve by continuing to work with him. He has given me a new outlook on working out and (never thought I'd say this), I now look forward to it.
Shawn is definitely a capable trainer with a vast knowledgeable background. He's able to motivate, offers positive reinforcement, and has the personality to work with anyone. While you're working out all his focus is on you (I cannot appreciate this enough). I want to stress that if you are like I used to be - knowing that you were wanting to make a change, but not knowing how/who - or like me, introverted, shy, and/or worried about embarrassing yourself, I think you owe it to yourself to get up and try... give Shawn a call...you have nothing to lose with his free assessment. Take that first step for yourself, get the help you need, and achieve the goals you want - it IS doable.
And when my 40 sessions are up and I have completed my first goal in October (walking around Asia without being winded), I will definitely be hiring him for more.
