Hardcore Trainer Transformation: Grand Prize Winner

Hardcore Trainer Transformation: Grand Prize Winner

My Aha Moment

I chose to transform as I needed to get more intensity in my training. It felt somewhat stale and I knew this would be a mental and physical challenge. I enjoy pushing myself and I knew Kris Gethin's 8-week Hardcore Trainer Reboot would serve my purposes. He's a phenomenal athlete, and I thoroughly enjoy how he trains.

Overcoming Obstacles

My days started at 3:30 am when I’d wake up, eat, pack meals, train and work from 7:30-5:00 pm, complete my cardio for the day, cook dinner, do chores, and get to bed at a decent time. My shifts don’t finish at a set time and that could derail me from my pre-determined schedule.
