It’s getting close to that magical time of year where everyone feels motivated to lose some weight. Central Oregon Athlete is going to be there for you to help motivate and inform you on ways you can meet your new year’s resolutions of weight loss. We’ve got some inspiring stories we’ll be sharing as well as great advice from people who know what’s up!
I figured I’d share this on Thanksgiving, as that is usually the day that we end with saying, “I need to shed some pounds!”
So have an awesome Turkey day and check back with COA for lots of great weight loss and health/fitness info to come!
– Rick and Erin Cummings
You want your personal trainer to look good, the same way you’d rather have your financial planner pull up in a nice car instead of get off the bus. When Rick Cummings asked me about my goals I said, “Pretty much looking like you.” Cummings is in great shape and clearly practices what he preaches. In the two workouts I’ve had with him so far he’s opened my eyes to so much about nutrition, weight training and overall fitness that it’s hard to believe it’s only been two meetings.
Rick and his wife Erin are both personal trainers @ Snap Fitness in Bend, where Erin teaches a wide variety of fitness classes.
I’ve been active my whole life, an athlete on and off, but have never worked with a personal trainer before. Working with Rick has made me realized that I pretty much had no idea what I was doing. He’s been able to push me in a way that I’ve never been pushed in the gym before. When your main sports have been tennis and distance running it’s easy to have a mentality of “lifting weights is something I do every once in a while, but I don’t want to get too sore.” Having someone push you and teach you the correct way to lift is so much more rewarding!
I’d recommend Rick for the following reasons:
• He’s knowledgeable and clearly lives what he is teaching.
• Inspiring and has a great ability to push you.
• Is a fun person to hangout with, which helps if you are going to be spending painful moments together
