I joined Foundation Fitness about 2 years ago after more than a decade of barely going to the gym at all. Before joining Foundation Fitness, several times over that period I joined big box gyms but I didn't haven't the discipline to workout consistently, and my diet was just awful. I knew that if I wanted to get truly fit again, I'd have to get some professional help in training and setting appropriate fitness goals (I'm in my mid 30's now), and starting eating properly.
The guys at Foundation Fitness (Devon and Patrick) put me on the correct diet (calories target and macro-nutrient balance), and are crucial in keeping my form correct in the gym and keeping me motivated and working hard. Frankly, I can't imagine ever working out by myself again. This is the way to do it. Plus, you'll meet other like-minded people who are working just as hard as you to achieve their personal fitness goals.
Whether you're just trying to get back to the great shape of your youth, or perhaps when you were a competitive athlete, Foundation Fitness will get you on track. Many of their staff are athletes/former athletes, and they know what it takes to get fit and avoid/take care of injuries as well, which is so important, especially as you age.
As far as personal progress, in the first year I cut about 20 lbs. of fat and gained 10 lbs. of muscle. In my second year, the progress has continued. My diet is healthier than ever and I have so much more energy now day and night than I've had in the last 10+ years. This is really important to me since I have three small and very active children, and I can wear them out playing rather than the other way around. Just recently, my fitness has gotten to the point where I'm getting back to playing competitive tennis. This is only possible because of the diet, strength and fitness training programs at Foundation Fitness.
