Late night ruminations....

If, when you graduated high school, you told your Mom and Dad, " I don't have enough time for college"- How would that go over? What if your parents told you, " we can't afford to send you to college", but then spent hundreds of dollars every week eating out, going out boozing with friends, or spending money on material things that made them temporarily feel better about themselves? I imagine that would be frustrating for you because they would be essentially denying you the opportunity to improve the quality of your life through an education that would hopefully result in a good career?

So if either of these scenarios became a reality for you when you were 18, you would be forced to spend hours upon hours reading books, doing research to learn a business or work with master craftsmencraft in order to learn a trade. This is what you would probably need to do in order to survive financially and hopefully become successful.

Clearly you would have to make concessions regarding your time, money and energy in order to achieve a lifestyle that you'd be happy with right?

Well achieving a level of fitness and health that allows you to lead a higher quality of life isn't so different. There was a time in human history where doing what was best in order to live as long as possible whilst feeling as good as possible was an innate trait. For most of our time on this planet, everyday was quite literally a matter of life and death. We had to rely on our primal instincts for survival.

My how far we have come- yay technology!!!

We now base most of our diet choices and make decisions on what to buy, based on what commercials of multi-billion dollar companies tell us is 'healthy' and 'what choosy parents choose' and show pictures of how sugar smacked-crack pops bring families together. Do you really think these corporations have our best interest at heart?

Let me ask you another question; how come with all of the advances in medicine we've made in the last 100 hundred years and living during a time when there are more doctors and 'specialists' than ever before - diseases such as Type II diabetes, heart disease, chronic fatigue etc etc etc are at an all time high? And they just keep getting higher and higher every year don't they?

Who do you trust to tell you what is good for you and your family to eat? Anyone?

Are you ok with the fact the approximately 90% of the chemicals found on Genetically Modified Crops can be found in the umbilical chords of your babies? Do you trust that the government and the food lobbyists groups have your best interest at heart- and that the chemicals found on aforementioned GMOs are 'safe'?

Could you benefit from the advice of someone who specializes in preventive care? A person who's mission is to make you healthy, so that you and your family aren't helping to pay 3 doctors payments on their BMWs? Would you like to enjoy having more energy to cope with stresses of work, relationships, bills etc? A good nutritionist, yoga instructor, personal trainer, group fitness coach probably isn't what you would consider cheap - but neither is college. But unless you're willing to put the hours into reading & researching how to achieve optimal health, you might want to consider reaching out to somebody who's livelihood is making people like you healthier and happier.

Like I stated before, you have to make concessions somewhere. In the environment we live in, health isn't just something you're given, you have to make sacrifices. You can choose to make time for health now, or be forced to deal with illness later.

New Pricing Structure Effective Immediately

I am very please to announce a new, incredibly affordable preventive health care program to all private personal training prospects.

The package rewards those who commit to training 2-3 a week on a consistent basis and are dedicated to getting results.

Rather than offering packages of 10 or 20 sessions at a minimally discounted rate, I have to decided to offer a monthly package that allows the individual to train as many as 10 times a month for only $600 in Hoboken and $700 in NYC. That brings the per session cost down a very generous $20 per session and up to $200 a month! Compare that rate to any gym in the area, and if you can find a better rate I'd love to hear more about it.

This is NOT strictly a personal training package. Every month you will get a health pack from the leading manufacturer of pharmaceutical-grade nutritional supplements in the country - customized by me for your unique needs and goals ( a value of approximately $60 ). Pay for 3 months up front and receive a health pack with a value of $150 !!!

And if that is not enough, you will also receive a new list healthy meal options every month accompanied by an e-newsletter, written just for active clients ( value of $100 ).

The more you exercise, the more money you save - and more importantly the healthier you will get. You will be given all of the tools to take control of your health and enjoy a life with more energy and confidence.

The current rates on listed at www.bellatorfit.com are still available - but I strongly encourage all of you to take advantage of this great offer. YOU WILL GET RESULTS.
