Thomas Phillips of Tinton Falls, New Jersey
Disgusted with his
body, lack of energy and inability to focus, Thomas Phillips
knew that a lifestyle change was not only necessary but also
mandatory. As a husband, father, high school teacher of special
students and graduate student, he became frustrated with himself
since he could not muster enough energy to fully perform the
various duties of his life.
"My attitude and performance
in life gradually became unacceptable. Changes were absolutely
essential or failure was inevitable."
Despite a very hectic schedule, Phillips signed on for the Body-for-LIFE Challenge. With the support of his wife and family, he
effectively managed his time to make room for exercise and better
health. In matter of only three weeks, he began to see dramatic
changes in his physique, strength and energy, which lead to
a better focus and attitude.
"I came to realize that exercise and physical
health dramatically improved my overall quality of life. The
results kept me motivated and inspired."
When his transformation was complete, not only had his energy
been recharged, but Phillips dramatically changed his body composition
as well. He lost 28 pounds, took five inches off his waist,
dropped his body fat 15 percentage points and dropped his cholesterol
level by 66 points.
As a result of his participation in Body-for-LIFE,
he says that he is a better husband, father, teacher, grad student
and person. He also credits the program for giving him a new
appreciation of all the wonderful things in his life. |
