Success Stories
Holly
For most of my life, I followed the classic pattern of “dieting my way to obesity.” I’d lose weight, then gain it all back, and more. Every year, it seemed that my weight was at an all-time high. Finally, I decided I wanted to break that cycle. One of my fit friends referred me to John Stewart. We started working out three times a week. John designed a manageable workout program that gave me results almost immediately. Pretty soon, I noticed how much better I felt and how much more energy I had. My once-tight clothes had become loose. As we continued the workouts, little by little, John taught me how to change my eating habits. The more I worked out with him, and the more I took his advice about food, the more weight I lost. No crazy diet plans, no food diaries. He gave me a realistic workout program and sensible nutritional advice that I could follow.
And it worked! Since I’ve been training with John, and thanks to his advice about food, I’ve lost 34 pounds. Today my worst problem is that it’s tough to get dressed in the morning because all my clothes are too big! Not only have I lost weight, I’ve developed that lean, defined look I’ve always dreamed of. John Stewart showed me how to accomplish what I never thought was possible. Thanks to John, for the first time ever, I can say, “I love my body!”

I have been a client of John Stewart for three years. I have always exercised and have had several personal trainers over the years. John’s extensive knowledge concerning exercise techniques and nutrition has given me an excellent program to follow. I am very pleased with the professional training I receive. I would highly recommend John to all those interested in improving their overall health and fitness level.

The trainers at Custom Health & Fitness are very professional. John and Danielle are the trainers of this gym and are also husband and wife. Their hearts are very into making sure you get the most out of your program. You can also tell that each program is specialized and specific to each person. They both seem very dedicated and want you to succeed with your goals. I would definitely recommend this gym to anyone who wants to achieve and succeed at something they never thought was possible.

I would like to take this time to tell you how great I feel as a client in your personal training program. Having had personal trainers in the past, as well as participating in a body building show, I have a perceptive of quality. Your attitude and enthusiasm toward fitness are so motivational towards success. Your skills can be easily applied to a variety of fitness scenarios. Our muscle either develops or deteriorates throughout our life. I have personally experienced your ability to grow muscle in a 50-year-old body. I would highly recommend your services to anyone seeking a better quality of life through improved health.

I am going to be 72 this year and I knew I needed to do something. I have been coming to Custom Health & Fitness since January and have seen and felt the effects it has had on me. I have gained muscle, lost weight, and even become FLEXIBLE!!! I know a big part of my success is from the motivation from other members and the personalized attention from the excellent staff. Custom Health & Fitness has taught me that there are "No Excuses" and has helped me create the healthy lifestyle that I have always wanted."

He is always positive, always encouraging, just a great motivator," says Blair, a nurse at the Department of Veteran Affairs at Mare Island. "I feel so good. I've done a lot of work, but John was the motivating factor. I would not be exercising if it weren't for John... He spots me to make sure I’m doing things right. I can't praise him enough. He's very much aware of what's going on. He doesn't just walk off and start doing something else. Not only is he a good person, he is very good at what he does! His goal is to help people and make them feel better about themselves. His gym is spotless. It's immaculate. He always makes sure that the equipment is cleaned and wiped down. It's like it's brand new. It shines. (Even) the bathroom is spotless. It's a very classy place.
Nancy
Three-and-a-half years ago at age 57, I had emergency surgery for a life-threatening illness. Three weeks later, I left the hospital with a walker--my muscles were barely functioning due to the extent of the illness and the length of time in a hospital bed. At the beginning of 2004, I started working with a rehab trainer and continued for two years at which time she told me I was ready to move on. By chance, I saw John’s ad in the Napa Valley Marketplace and decided to call him. I started working out with John twice a week, making lots of progress and enjoying it! I said “working with a personal trainer is terrific” so many times that my husband decided to try it! The story continues . . .

After my wife, Nancy, impressed upon me for at least 6 months how much I might benefit from John’s personal training, I decided to give it a try—particularly since I was in my 2nd> year of a chronic and very painful groin injury I sustained at age 62 and that medical professionals had not been able to cure.&nbsWithin 3 months of John’s carefully prescribed stretching and strengthening exercises, my groin problem has faded away. As a bonus, I am also now physically able to do many activities painlessly—activities that had become too uncomfortable to endure. I thought this was just the inevitable effects of aging, but to my surprise it was reversible, thanks to John.
