Why do you I need to be a size 0?

I do play around on the Internet and came to this forum section. Of course I was curious and ended up looking up IsoBreathing. I love to see what individual have to say about the program. Well the comment that struck me was- How can you believe this program when she is overweight. I believe that each individual is entitled to have their own opinion. When it comes to me I actually laughed at the comment. Why do individuals feel that to be a personal trainer you have to look like a bodybuilder or be a size 0 to encourage individuals to become healthier and fit. I am 5'2 and a size 6. I am happy, healthy and strong.? Why should I diet and become a size 0 or work out for hours a day to look like a bodybuilder? I find that too many individuals have a very odd perception on what healthy really is. If I was a size 12 and was still fit would that mean that I didn't have the same knowledge to help others become healthier and fit?

I think that individuals forget that the IsoBreathing program is not geared toward bodybuilders. It is geared to get individuals motivated and feeling good about themselves with a kindergarten approach with exercise. Remember that exercise should not hurt to work. That is why I designed this program to get back to basics and start with isometric exercise. This program is not for everybody and that is understandable. But if you know someone that is looking for a starting point this is the program for them.

interesting comments

I was playing around on the computer looking up all different things that are associated with IsoBreathing. I came across a sight where individuals were rating the IsoBreathing program. I really did appreciate all of the comments mentioned. www.dietblogtalk.com/isobreathing

Some were positive and some negative. What I was amused at were the negatives and I truly understood their comments. This program is not for everyone. It is a learning process without the hip hop music and fast "booty" movements.
I designed the IsoBreathing program to teach individuals that exercise does not have to hurt to work. IsoBreathing is the Kindergarten of exercise. You need to start someplace and this program is your starting place. It teaches proper body positioning with a number of exercises so once you learn body positioning you need to move forward and increase intensity and perform different exercises. There are alot of great programs out there but I have found when watching individuals perform different exercises their body positioning was off.

The biggest complaint that I received from new clients that belonged to gyms was that they were not obtaining results. I worked with them for one week and changed their body positioning and they felt their muscles working where they did not feel them work before. For some I had to change their eating habits and for others they needed to include aerobic activity. This program is not aerobic. It is for strength training.
I hope that this will help others that are considering the IsoBreathing program. I have helped thousands get on the right path to a healthier lifestyle and I want to help you.
