| Mark's Initial body fat result was 24.36 per cent
in November 2005. In April of 2005, his body fat
tested at 17.3 per cent. For Mark Schulz, fitness has been the best medicine. Eighteen year- old Mark Schulz came to One On One based on his doctor's recommendation. Mark's physician wanted him to maintain an exercise program to decrease his headaches and regain his vision. Mark's primary goal was to be a normal young adult and be able to function in society. Not too long ago, Mark had been hospitalized for six months with severe headaches and couldn't move. Prior to coming to One On One, Mark tried several other fitness facilities. One On One seemed to hit the spot. I asked Mark what made One On One different. He said, "It's the environment. David, my trainer, applies non-stop pressure. He takes a hold-no-prisoners approach. David doesn't let me stop, and now I'm addicted." The toughest part of Mark's training was running. He couldn't rationalize the time it would take him to run when he felt his time could be better spent elsewhere. Always strategic, Mark had a plan. His first passion is cooking, so he coordinated running on the treadmill with watching a cooking show. Even more efficient, Mark runs while doing work on his palm pilot. Not something I recommend to everyone! At his heaviest weight in October 2005, Mark was 245 pounds. He is now a trim 210 pounds. He feels energetic and excited to go shopping for new clothes. Even better, his headaches are nonexistent and he believes that fitness is "an effective medication." Mark works out six days per week. He runs five days per week and completes two weight training workouts with his trainer David at One On One. He also completes up to three additional weight training workouts on his own, and on the sixth day he walks. Mark attributes his ability to overcome his obstacles on the path to better fitness to his stubbornness. "It is mind over matter. You are the only barrier that can hold you back or stop you from succeeding. I've learned that you either do it for yourself, or you are the only one to blame." Mark will graduate from high school this June and wants to look good in his tuxedo. His goal is to continue to increase his muscle mass and decrease his body fat. He will definitely continue with his fitness regimen. "Exercising is not a have to anymore; it is a want to!" |
