The reason….

Aaron and I often chat about the reason why we set up Chisel Fitness, and what makes us different to some of the other training companies that exist.  In our minds it’s as much about education as it is about training….put simply we want to teach you how to lead a healthy lifestyle.

Michael’s email….

And it was only a few days ago that we recieved an email from an ex-client that gave us one of those ‘warm and fuzzy’ moments. 

Hi Chris & Zimmo,

How are you guys? Hope the colder months are treating you both well.

I just wanted say how much I enjoyed all the hell you guys put me through, and that I haven’t stopped training, infact I have started training in Arakan, a burmese martial art, and also boxing and other various cardio/core excercises.

I am actively training 1.5 hours every second day, so 4 times a week… then 3 times every second week, and so on…

What you guys taught me, in the little time we shared, was invaluable and has set me on the right path to enjoying my life in ways I had always dreamed of but never felt I could attain.

For you guys it is probably a matter of fact getting up in the morning not having breathing problems or other issues to do with asthma or generally being unfit and unhealthy, but for me this was a daily occurance for over two decades.

The real value I found in the time I had with you guys was the obvious kowledge and understanding of body mechanics, health and nutrition (among other things) that you shared with me, without which I probably would still be sitting on my couch wondering what my life COULD have been.

This new found understanding is what drives me to better myself, not just in fitness and nutrition, but in all parts of my life, and what has enabled me to earn a new and real form of self respect.

Maybe one day you will see me out there training someone myself, giving them the confidence to face mortality with a new found sense of freedom, throwing away the shackles of self doubt and apathy. <<- I laughed at that sentence too…

Once again, thanks for showing me the light.

Sincerely

Michael

That’s what it’s all about.
