From Shy and Unmotivated to Confident and Strong
As I began my journey I was a 14 year old who was stubborn, lazy and unmotivated. When I encounter people, I’m usually shy as well as uncomfortable. It was different when I began training with Aviva. She welcomed me with open arms, motivating me from the moment we met. Aviva greeted me with smiles and motivating words from the start. I’ve never felt as though someone had so much interest and concern about my well being and health as she did. My natural personality includes being very stubborn; being pushed to workout was very difficult. Although it would seem exhausting to deal with someone who is so stubborn and uncompromising, Aviva managed to do it.
Throughout my entire childhood I felt ashamed of my body and felt the need to hide. With Aviva’s help I was able to feel comfortable with my body and feel secure being out in public. Of course it was not easy to obtain and reach the goals I set out for myself. From training hard to eating right, it was always challenging. What got me through these tough times was knowing I had Aviva by my side whether she was training me or not. I knew if I was having a difficult time Aviva could always change my mood by just a simple text. She knows just how hard to push and just the right things to say. I truly feel I would never be able to accomplish the things I have without the help of my amazing trainer, role model and mentor.
Thank you so much,
