Sick of being told marketing gimmicks as though there's a BIG secret way to achieve the body of your dreams?
Want to work past the bu****it and SIMPLY have a plan to success that's clear to understand?

I have been a personal trainer for over 20 years, most of them in NY. If you are a woman that doesn't like full gyms, I can help you in a private studio in Funchal. Message me!

Another thing I talk about is LOT with my clients.
YOU CAN'T SPOT REDUCE.
Clients ask me on a daily basis what exercises they should be doing to get rid of ab/thigh/ arm fat.
Unfortunately, we can't choose where the excess fat will come from when we lose weight.
We just have to be in a caloric deficit and be patient.
Some people lose upper body fat first. Some lose lower.
In my case, the first place to lose fat is the breasts.😥😥😥
By the time my thighs are lean, I look like a boy!😂😂😂
It's all about genetics.
Be patient, and the stubborn fat will go away... but not necessarily in the order you want it to.
But it will still go away, as long as you are in a caloric deficit.

I talk a lot to my clients about avoiding having things that make them overeat in the house.
Some people are moderators ( I hate them!😂). They can have a cookie, a piece of chocolate, a glass of wine, and l are fine.
I'm not like that. If I have cookies in the house, I eat the whole box, or the whole cake, or the whole bottle of white wine.
People like me should REALLY avoid having these trigger foods around.
You have to know yourself.
Stop saying that you have to have self-control.
Out of sight, out of mind!

Romanian deadlifts are great exercises for hamstrings and glutes. If you want a personal trainer that can train you in a private place, I can help you.

With 20 years experience as a personal trainer in NY, in Madeira for 7, I've been helping women that don't like crowded gyms reach their fitness and health goals. Message me for more informations!

So true!

After 40, your goal shouldn't just be losing weight. It should be getting stronger, protecting your bones, and staying independent for years to come. I can help you with that. 20 years as a personal trainer in NY, living in Madeira for the last years.
