Winston Experienced Results in Just 1 Week with Innovative Results

September 21, 2017 by Jessica 3 Comments

Innovative Results is stoked on this next client highlight!

Why? Because this is a success story that is relatable for the majority of the folks that step foot on to Orange County’s Fitness Playground for the first time.

A huge thank you to Winston Yu for taking the time to share his experience and fitness results!

My brother and I joined Innovative Results because of a Groupon promotion and at the urging of a church friend. A group of us signed up together and after the first session, we were hooked! I am incredibly glad for this experience and it has literally changed my life.

My brother and I are truly a testament to the efficacy of IR’s program. Prior to joining IR, we’ve tried 24 Hr Fitness, LA Fitness, DVD programs, but nothing stuck! From each year’s New Year’s resolution to the next, I haven’t truly worked out for over 10 years. We have now attended for about 2 full months (everyday, 6 days a week!) This is well over the 3 days max I’ve consecutively worked out for prior.

IR provides an experience that neither a gym nor DVD program offers. The atmosphere is fun and energetic. The coaches are friendly, knowledgeable, encouraging, and pushes you just the right amount. The work out programs are well designed and vary enough so that you won’t get bored and you’re constantly challenged. This program, being a group class, is precisely why I feel more motivated to keep up. I don’t want to be the slowest or the weakest. Without peers, I would not be pushing myself. That said, it’s never a competition and you’re always encouraged to go at your own pace. I am definitely inspired to keep up with the EFFORT; not so much with the mass of weights, reps, or speed. The coaches focus on your form so that your work-out is of good quality, rather than sheer number of reps of poor form.

Both my brother and I have noticed differences in ourselves after the first week. I now have more energy, my mood has improved, even my complexion is better! After the first month, I now have family members telling me how my belly is already noticeably smaller.

What makes IR different is its family culture and it’s positive mental attitude. Now, both of us are into our third month and looking forward to continually improving ourselves. I cannot say enough good things about IR!

If you are like Winston, and the many others searching for a training program that will support and motivate you toward your fitness goals, give Innovative Results a try!

I Am Constantly Seeing Little Improvements at This Costa Mesa Gym – The Orange County Fitness Playground

July 2, 2016 by IR Staff Leave a Comment

Angie’s constant and little improvements are building incredible lifelong and lifestyle improvements year over year.

We are honored and joy-filled that we get to partner with her in her fitness and life journey of constant little improvements at our Costa Mesa Gym!

Check out her story below.

When did you start training at Innovative Results?

8 years ago.

Why did you start training with Innovative Results?

I first started with Keri after meeting her in our women’s bible study group in Costa Mesa.

She and I clicked.

I have always worked out but my workout partner moved and my morning habit was slagging.

I thought maybe a trainer would help pull me out of my slump.

What have you improved since you started training with Innovative Results?

I’m constantly seeing little improvements and being prompted for the bigger ones that need to happen.

Since I have started, I’m definitely stronger all over.

I can do a handstand against a wall.

I have improved my thought process and learning.

This is a hard one to answer actually.

I would say overall balance of daily living.

Hearing your voice “next one best one” and “you can do anything for 15 sec.”

I can push through whatever barrier I’m dealing with throughout my day.

What kept you coming back to Innovative Results?

At first it became an extension of my women’s group where Keri and I got time to talk one on one and build a relationship.

The workouts we were doing at this Costa Mesa Gym were fun and varied daily.

I learned a lot as far as there are more things to do in a treadmill than run.

When you were switching buildings and we worked out in the park….what a blast.

It was/is fun!

Now it has become even more of a family setting.

The people that have crossed my path through Innovative Results and the new friendships and relationships have been built in that one hour–what a great way to start your day!

I just need to add more days…

How has Innovative Results improved the other areas of your life (i.e. work, relationships, finances, education)?

As you know, I work at a high school and knowing the talents that Aaron has and being able to share that with students and staff has been amazing.

Lately it has been so awesome to watch the students struggle and laugh as they workout with Aaron and me knowing that “I can do that.”

I actually want to just jump in and workout with them.

Hearing the teachers walk by and be so full of joy as they talk about their afternoon workouts.

But mostly it has been watching the growth of two people and them finding their passions and talents.

Education as far as learning about rolling out, different stretches for different ailments, and obtaining cardio without necessarily running.

What advice do you have for someone who is just getting started with Innovative Results?

Take your time, you will get stronger, and you truly need at least three days per week at this Costa Mesa Gym if you want to see significant change.

How has your life changed since you started training at Innovative Results?

The thought of going to the “regular” gym has become painful to think about–glad to have The Orange County Fitness Playground.

I have hit an age and time of life where I have to work out at least five to six days a week if I am going to see any change at all, but everything else (traditional gyms, etc.) is pretty boring in comparison.

Who would you want to experience what you get to experience at Innovative Results?

Everyone!

I will get my husband to return, and I want to get my son to try it out.

I’m still working on that.

But seriously, I feel that every athletic team at Newport Harbor High School should be using Innovative Results as part of their workout regime.

I honestly and completely feel there would be less injuries and more strength.

8 Ways To Get Out of Your Emotional Slump with Innovative Results

May 2, 2015 by IR Staff 1 Comment

Even coaches and leaders get into emotional slumps…and I was in one recently–NOT COOL, and most definitely NOT GOOD if you have people that rely on you!

When in a slump, we must find what matters, and fight for it.

How did I know I was in a slump?

Getting up in the morning was a chore, and I didn’t become fully awake, alive, and energized until about 7am, which is THREE HOURS and 15 minutes INTO MY DAY!
I felt like I wasn’t productive or high-performing.
My training sets were barely finished, and lower performing than the earlier weeks.
I craved sugar, beer, wine, and crappy food.
Water sounded gross.
My time with God and relationships in life felt disconnected or disjointed.

Why did this happen to me?

Not the greatest question to ask in the middle of a slump, unless you want to play the victim, and spend more time in your slump. Taking responsibility for yourself and confronting the brutal facts is top priority if you are going to make it out.

I am not sure if it was because I was in an ethereal-spiritual-philosophical haze of having a brand new baby girl or not working for over a week (I still worked, but very little compared to my normal) or it was just my time to experience a low week or time…but I was down.

Here is what I do to help me pull out of the downward spirals (which have been known to happen to me about once every three months or so, and are much shorter lived than in my past):

Smiling– Smiling has been shown to change the state of a person by many studies that I have read and researched in a very small amount of time. This takes a choice and an action. Here is a great Innovative Results video on the power of a smile:
Drinking enough water– Too many times I was down because of dehydration, only to realize that a few glasses of water, picked me back up to full speed again. Here is another Innovative Results video on hydration.
Eating Healthy Foods, not Foods that my Stress Desires– I have a MAJOR sweet tooth (it is such a problem that my wife has to hide any sugar items if she wants to enjoy them in moderation, because she knows I will SMASH a whole bucket of sugary stuff at night to satiate my horrible cravings). Eating junk foods: anything that comes in a box, bag, or is ordered through an electrical communication device is not going to pull you out of your emotionalor energy slumber. It is going to crank you up into a euphoric cloud, and then drop you deeper than you were before. CHOOSE FOODS THAT GOD MADE, and if man has messed with them RUN AWAY!! Here is an Innovative Results video on meal preparation and nutrition:
Prayer and Meditation– In my personal experience, I have felt relief by handing over the issues to a power greater than me. I have also read many studies and books in my Masters on leadership Studies that displayed empirical studies and experiential observations that prayer and meditation helped the individual in their spiritual, physical, mental and emotional states. Here is an Innovative Results video on thankfulness and breathing, which can be both prayer and meditation:
A little bit of daily exercise goes a long way– Again, too many studies have proven that this is one of the BEST ways to FEEL BETTER! Here is an Innovative Results video with an exercise you can do anywhere, and you will feel better afterward:
Daily Affirmation, Scripture Memory, Direction, and Vision Board Daily– Even when I am bored with it, or bummed out. I have heard it said, that ‘grace cannot be earned, but it is not opposed to effort.’ By Dallas Willard, and I think the individual plays a major role in what happens to us in this amazing Universe, despite your belief system. Here is an Innovative Results video for your success, where we share our belief in you:
Relationship with God and Others Renewed- An planned intimate venture with the one’s you love, or the one’s that love you can really help carry you out of your hole, and give you a breath of life! Here is an Innovative Results video, where we share our appreciation for our relationship with you:
Simplify- Just take one moment or task at a time. The last steps out of my slump, was repeating to myself, “I can. I will. I must.” “Just do one task.” and “I can do all things through Christ that gives me strength.” Phil 4:13 These three simple phrases, helped me to two simple things (get rid of all the dirt that was in my backyard, and write an email). Here is an Innovative Results video where we show you how simply improving your posture has HUGE implications in the improvement of your mood and motivation:

Afterwards, I felt the grip of dark emotions and slowed energy lift from me, and become replaced with what I describe as my high normal (feeling awake, alive, and energized…fully capable, competent, and confident…READY TO SMASH…Ready to LIVE!…READY TO SERVE…Joyfully praising through my life’s purpose.

I believe that every slump and down part of our life has much to teach us, just like failure and winning has much to teach us as well.

If you have read and watched your way to the end of this article, I hope you already feel better, and I am looking forward to fighting the good fight with you this day, week, and life!!

May your mood be lifted, your dreams be tangible, your actions be swift, and your days be blessed beyond belief!

Make your next one, your best one!

Your Presence and Donation Matters at Innovative Results 10am Charity Training Session

October 23, 2014 by ptpt Leave a Comment

Innovative Results asked Jeff Costa, a long time client and member of Local GO ministries at The Crossing Church in Costa Mesa, what he does to help the community, and this is what he said:

“My name is Jeff Costa, and I lead The Crossing’s Street Team ministry.

Street Team is a group of people that meet to help the people on the street that are invisible and needy. While we go out to serve and help the city’s people, we pray for the streets, businesses, and civil services.

The biggest success story is the fact I am on a team that has helped 19 people get off the streets!!

The reason why I do this is because now I know these are people just like you and me. They just might be going through a really tough time, and need some love and a chance.

I believe that God puts certain people in your life.

For some reason He chose me for this, and I’m all in!”

Innovative Results is proud to be a part of helping Jeff Costa get people off the street through our donations and awareness created through our Saturday charity training session every Saturday at 10am. Bring a suggested $10 donation, experience the best personal training in Orange County, and help GO Ministries improve the quality of life of the homeless…even getting people off of the street!

Just for the crazy, the elite, and the muscle-heads?

Think again!

Calisthenics is a wave crashing hard into the fitness scene, and it is anything but NEW.

Dating back to the Spartans, calisthenics means “beautiful strength” in Greek, and if you have watched individuals perform these incredible body weight movements it is an easy phrase to agree upon. (Read More on the History of Calisthenics)

Calisthenics is about “mastering one’s body” and the benefits surpass those of basic “throw the iron” muscle building workouts. It’s about control on physiological, mental, and neurological levels.

Have you ever wanted to do a proper push-up, pull-up or hand-stand?

These are your calisthenics starting points, and with proper training you could soon be performing muscle ups, walking handstands, the human flag and many more bodyweight movements!

Think you can’t get a good workout without the metal & iron?

It’s time to get the Calisthenics Facts…

Calisthenics training is not about being the next American Ninja Warrior, so what can EVERYONE benefit from Calisthenics training?

Fast Weight Loss
Minimum risk, Maximum Benefit to your Joints
Incredible Gains in Strength
Anywhere, Anytime
Simplicity
Extremely Varied
Perfect for Improving Mental Health & State of Mind

(Read More on Exact Benefits HERE)

Now that YOU have the facts, we know what you are thinking…

HOW DO I GET STARTED IN CALISTHENICS TRAINING?!?!?!

So glad you asked!

It’s Surfs Up for Brittney!

December 13, 2013 by ptpt Leave a Comment

Another incredible testimonial from an amazing client!

Working out at innovative results for the past nine months has really strengthened my surfing. The different strength and conditioning workouts have helped a lot with my paddling. I am able to paddle faster and for longer periods of time. This really helps when there is a strong current or when the waves are bigger. The workouts have also helped strengthen my core which helps me get up on my board faster and have better balance when riding on the waves. In all I have raised my endurance level which has really helped with my surfing, running and physical activities.

– Brittney Gingrich

Thanks for sharing your story Brittney!
