Jamie D is a fantastic gem of a health coach! A close friend of mine introduced me to her a few…read moreyears ago and I'm so grateful for that! She is funny, intelligent, and a subject matter expert in this field of healthy living. She also practices what she preaches: she does daily exercises, morning runs, and strength training so she can vouch what she does for herself and her clients really works.
As for myself, I've struggled with my weight post-pregnancies, with several permanent injuries, bad knees, and being my mid-forties. I really wanted a patient trainer that will keep me motivated, keep me in check to be mindful, aware and accountable for my life style choices, YET still not be a mean drill sergeant that I want to hide from! Jamie is the perfect blend of humor, honesty, positivity, humility, and deep well of knowledge and experience. Bonus: she also is a SME in real estate!
I find her 1 hour sessions to be highly effective, efficient and fun workouts. Jamie has an amazing vibrant personality, motivating me especially when the set starts gets challenging, giving me clear, concise tips on getting my form right and pretty soon the session flies by. Two days later, the inevitable muscle soreness comes in to prove the workout has made me stronger and healthier!
I'm still a work in progress as I have an end boss goal to drop from 200 lbs to my weight pre-pregnancy days. My initial goal is hit a healthier BMI by being 10% less than my start weight, which will be my first milestone.
The coaching sessions tremendously help me mentally and physically since we laugh and talk about life's crazy adventures as I lift, squat, lunge, push, pull and pump iron. It's a full-body workout that has short little rests in between and she'll pace it to make it enough of a challenge each time. Checking your form, adding more resistance, counting it down, easing it if needed and most importantly, encouraging you as sweat is rolling down your back as you plank down.
I put a few pictures of me and my family below to show that no matter what age, shape or stage you are in life, you can always be an inspiration and role model to your family and loved ones. I just love feeling stronger and knowing I'm adding years to my life to be there for the ones I care about.
In conclusion, I highly recommend Jamie for her health coaching services and as you get to know her, it will be revealed how very gifted and talented she is that your coaching sessions will fly by and you will feel great afterwards!
