Innovative Results’ Training Program Helps Manny Recover from Injury

October 18, 2017 by Jessica 5 Comments

Since starting with Innovative Results back in Fall 2014, Manny Aragon has not stopped being an inspiration. Starting as a client, Manny is now a couple months into his IR3 internship/mentoring program with Innovative Results as well.

After taking HUGE physical strides, Manny wanted to develop his mindset to not only assist during his workouts, but to help himself create an improved quality of life at work, and with his family.

For more on Manny’s fitness and improved quality of life journey, we highly recommend reading his triumphant stories from start to present!

June 24, 2016 – “I am doing something that I NEVER expected to be doing..”

April 4, 2017 – Innovative Results Kettlebell Sport Competitor, Manny Aragon Shares His Story

Now on to the present!

——

Testimonial for Innovative Results – Injury healed through training.

Name: Manny Aragon

Came to IR: Fall 2014

Joined IR Kettlebell Sport Team: Fall 2015

Earlier this year and coming off of WAKSC World Championships of Kettlebell Sport Lifting, subsequent week of Kettlebell Sport certification with 4 multiple time world champion lifters, and then an intense 3 month Kettlebell Sport snatch training program in an attempt to attain CMS (candidate master of sport) rank in Kettlebell Sport, I was feeling very strong.

It was with this feeling that I jumped headfirst into a demo obstacle course class during which I fell from the monkey bars, landed on my outstretched arm, partially tore three ligaments in my elbow and got a subcortical (crush) fracture on the back of the elbow from hyperextending upon impact. Needless to say, I completed the course after the injury (as I was very warmed up) except for the parallel bars as they require the arms to be straight- a position which felt quite bad as you can imagine.

I wasn’t thinking straight after the injury so I went straight home to get my kids (who were with me) some lunch. After lunch the arm began to swell considerably and the pain and stiffness set in. Luckily, I am a body worker by trade and work in a great sports medicine clinic- I have many resources available to me. That day, though, by the time I had gotten home and gotten my kids and myself something to eat, the clinic was closed until Monday. I thought at that point that my elbow may be dislocated, fractured, or possibly broken. I rubbed liniment into the tissue and did some myofascial work to ease the tension in the now seized up muscles.

Later that night my wife (an acupuncturist) gave me an acupuncture treatment using the orthopedic method she had been trained in by one of her mentors. All told I had 7 treatments in the first 3 weeks and one a week since then (now at 7 weeks out). X-Ray of the elbow showed no major fractures but likely a bad sprain. At 3 weeks, an MRI recommended by a colleague showed 3 partially torn ligaments (one low grade, one medium grade, one high grade) and a subcortical (crush) fracture at the articulation of the ulna with the humerous.

The recommended treatment from both my sports med docs as well as the orthopedist who was consulted was acupuncture (thank GOD I live with one). Needless to say- I was back in the gym two days after the injury- No kettlebell sport training (as I couldn’t push rapid force through the unstable injury) but I focused instead on attending the regular IR progression. I went 5-6 days a week, sometimes doing doubles (as my elbow and schedule allowed) while doing the physical requirements of the IR internship program (challenging).

The key here and I believe the fundamental reason why I have healed so quickly is that I made sure that I moved as naturally as possible within the range of motion and load range high enough to produce adaptation and drive recovery but not so much that I re-injured the joint.

This is a serious injury. I was expected to be completely off of Kettlebell Sport training for months if not an entire season. The take home message: Natural movement heals. A good diet, adequate rest, and being married to an acupuncturist don’t hurt either.

At the end of 5 weeks I began to swing a very light kettle bell to further drive healing and re learn the range of motion in the kettlebell sport snatch. I slowly increased the weight during week 5 and 6. By the middle of week 6 I snatched my full competition weight. This week, week 7, I am working with just shy of my competition weight. I will slowly increase the weight after a few weeks as my arm fully heals. I still cant fully straighten my arm or fully bend it but my range of motion is improving slowly with use during both the IR workouts as well as with the kettlebell workouts.

Thank you to the IR staff, my wife, my doctors, and to Matt who brought bone broth for me to speed the healing process. Special thanks to Aubrie for inspiring me to take this route after watching her quick recovery post shoulder dislocation earlier this year.

Join Manny and the Innovative Results Family this Saturday, October 21st for the 8th Annual International Charity Event – The One Hour Long Cycle (1HLC). This year’s event aims to raise awareness, support and donations for Walk with Sally.

Winston Experienced Results in Just 1 Week with Innovative Results

September 21, 2017 by Jessica 3 Comments

WinstonYu2Innovative 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. 

WinstonYu3

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.

WinstonYu1

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!

Emily: Yes. Attack. I’m staying in longer, I don’t get tired as easily and I don’t need as many breaks as I used to. (Ed. Note: Attack is a strength endurance position requiring bursts of explosive speed and power). My leg muscles keep me powering through.

At 65, Ken is a ‘Poster Child’ for Living an Active Lifestyle

September 13, 2017 by Jessica 2 Comments

Haaave yea met Ken?!

Folks if you have not heard of Ken St Cyr, fire up your Google Search!

At 65 years young, Ken is a champion pole vaulter, surf enthusiast, and a “poster-child” of how an active lifestyle improves the quality of one’s life.

Check out Ken at San Onofre State Beach!

But don’t just listen to us gush over Ken! Continue reading below to hear about the positive effects of his Innovative Results Training Program.

How did you hear about Innovative Results?
I was referred to Innovative Results by my Sports Med doctor who told me he had heard very good things about the work being done there. I needed a workout regime that supported my pole vault agility and strength development and he thought you guys could do that.

What about Innovative Results interested you in coming in?  

KenStCyr_vaultWhen I first visited and talked with the staff I was impressed with the knowledge and understanding of my needs.

Why did you decide to step into the gym?
Same as the above comment.

What was your first reaction once you entered the gym?
The workouts with Dane were dynamic and not simply machine strength training. I was moving and exercising muscles that clearly supported my desire to improve my pole vaulting strength and mobility. It was clear the staff, Dane specifically, had done their research on pole vaulting and knew how to get the best out of me.

What was one thing you like about Innovative Results that kept you coming back for more?
The complete focus on me and my needs. Dane spends every second watching, coaching, correcting and encouraging. Together we put together a long term game plan designed to peak at just the right time.

How has your vision of movement changed since you’ve started working out at Innovative Results?
Absolutely. I am more flexible, more toned and more competent as a 65 year old pole vaulter. That would not be possible without the effort put forth by Innovative Results and Dane.

How has Innovative Results helped your mindset in daily living? (at home, school, work, or in the community)
I generally feel in great shape, healthy and positive in my outlook. I attribute much of that to the results being achieved at IR.

What was the biggest obstacle (mental/structural/physical) you’ve crossed since starting at Innovative Results? 

KenStCyrI suffered a ruptured appendix soon after joining IR. Three months later, after surgery and full recovery when I was able to begin working out again I was on a tight timeline to get prepared for several major competitions. Dane and IR were able to get me back in shape quickly by constantly working me as hard as possible without crossing the boundary to be injury prone.

How were you able to surpass your obstacle?
Due to the commitment of Dane and IR we had a training program that maximized my ability to regain strength and flexibility. I was fortune enough to win a Bronze Medal at the US National Senior Games in June and then subsequently win the USA Masters Games.. I also won a Silver Medal at the North and Central America Masters Championships in Toronto in August 2017. It was a team effort with IR all the way!

Innovative Results Helped Chris Shed 20lbs and Alleviate Back Pain

September 8, 2017 by Jessica 2 Comments

ChrisCalhoonJoining a gym shouldn’t be about popularity and fads. Your fitness routine should help you grow mentally and physically, it’s a lifestyle change that will continue to support you, your goals, your health and lead you to an overall improved quality of life.

For over 10 years, Innovative Results has worked to provide our clients with the tools they need to achieve just that – An Improved Quality of Life.

Check out Chris’ Innovative Results experience!

When/Why did you start training at IR?
In late 2015, I began searching for a new way of working out and getting in shape. Until that time, I had been a member at a national ‘mega-gym’ for years, however, it wasn’t very motivating, and I wasn’t getting any results. Then one day, I stumbled upon a short introduction video on IR, and I knew immediately this was the place for me. Days later, I had my first workout with IR and my life was changed for the better.

Chris Calhoon Before
Chris prior to joining Innovative Results in December 2015.

What have you improved since you started training at IR? 
Everything – strength, flexibility, aerobic capacity. Loss of nearly 20lbs. Back pain has been dramatically reduced.

Some metrics that I have achieved: 70 feet on the versa-climber in 10 seconds, 43 push ups in 1 minute, 3 minute straight arm plank.

How has IR improved other areas of my life?
Inspired to be more active with my life, and be more active outdoors – recently, hiked to the summit of Saddleback Mountain, the highest point in Orange County.

I sleep better and the workouts help reduce stress levels.

Why do you stay committed to your improvement in and out of the gym?
In the words of Dylan Thomas, “Do not go gently into that good night – old age should burn and rave at close of day.” While I don’t think I’m old yet, IR workouts help keep me feeling young, and help keep the effects of time and age at bay.

Increase Your Happiness and Focus with Innovative Results Fitness Gym and Coaches

July 10, 2016 by IR Staff 3 Comments

Fitness gym in Orange CountyIncrease your happiness and focus with Innovative Results fitness gym and coaches just like Beatrice Ary.

The Orange County Fitness Playground has been Beatrice’s home away from home for the past six months, and she has been getting stronger, more flexible, and improved your muscle tone with us.

She has been such an avid member that I asked her a few questions about why she loves it here at the Innovative Results fitness gym, and why she likes training with the Innovative Results fitness coaches.

This is what she said:

When did you start training at Innovative Results?

I started training at the beginning of February.

Why did you start training with Innovative Results?

Orange County personal training program helps people lose weightI started training with Innovative Results to lose some weight and increase mobility/flexibilty.

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

Definitely! I think overall I’ve increased my energy levels and see gains in strength all the time

What kept you coming back to Innovative Results?

I like the team!

You guys are really helpful and drive the intensity hard plus the movements are difficult but not dangerous.

Plus, you don’t make me wear shoes.

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

It has definitely given me a boost of energy at work and my coworkers and supervisor can see that I am not lagging at the end of the day.

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

I think that they should choose a schedule they can stick to, I knew I wouldn’t have the energy and often wouldn’t be able to make it to workout after work so I chose 5 am.

5 am is still probably earlier than I need but I like the other clients and the general calm of the morning at 5 am.

I wouldn’t say I am a morning person, but I have always worked better going to sleep early and getting up early.

Anyway it’s about what is going to work for them 95% of the time.

I might encourage them to try a morning just because it is so much easier to blow off an evening workout.

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

I feel better and it keeps me on track with a healthy diet because it certainly feels like a waste to train and then eat crap.

I am always happier and more focused when I have a physical exercise routine that lets me kind of turn off my brain and focus on the exertion.

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

I would love everyone I know to experience Innovative Results.

Why do you stay committed to your improvement in and out of the Innovative Results fitness gym?

orange county personal trainer, personal training, fitness gym, fitness training, orange county fitness, costa mesa gymI can tell that on the days I don’t workout because I was lazy or slept late I’m just sort of continually sleepy and groggy, IR energizes me and reminds of my goals.

Exercising in the morning or during the day makes me more aware of my posture and body the entire day.

I take more time to stretch or recover.

I do my best to stay committed to my goals to look and feel better and improve my strength which I guess with constant reminders get me to eat healthy and wake up at 4:35 to see your smiling face everyday.

I started training at Innovative Results in early 2007.

2. Why did you start training with Innovative Results?

I was in early thirties at that time, and had multiple failed attempts with going regularly to 24 hr fitness.

After being diagnosed with low good cholesterol and high bad cholesterol during my annual physical check, I decided to give a trainer based fitness program a try.

My wife introduced me to Aaron, and I started training with Innovative Results.

3. What kept you coming back to Innovative Results?

Innovative Results Fitness Program at The Orange County Fitness Playground, TestimonialsWithin a year of joining Innovative Results, my cholesterol levels were back to normal range.

Those statistics were good enough to convince me that this body needs exercise, as much as it needs food every day.

Every time I couldn’t get out of bed to go to Innovative Results, I would remind myself that exercise is a meal for body.

After a point, my body got addicted & it would remind me if I missed a meal for too long.

The most important reasons that kept me coming back were Aaron & Corey.

These 2 guys are best in the industry.

Their core belief in making a positive influence on community or someone’s life helps them go beyond just trainers and make them stand out in the pack of fitness coaches, personal trainers, and fitness gyms.

Other reasons include – Friendly staff at Innovative Results, “Surprise Variety” factor in workout routines, and realizing results as promised with strength and stamina.

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

a. Improved determination – that kept me going for last 9 years

b. Defy aging: I believe that my photographs today look about the same as I was 9 years ago but feel more toned and have improved strength and endurance.

c. Balanced mind: Work out at IR is also a stress buster for me. It helps break the continuity of thoughts with professional and personal life matters and allow you to be you for an hour.

d. Ability to say “Yes” to outdoor events – Hiking, Skiing, Running, Jogging and more – I enjoy these activities more because I feel that I have stamina to go long.

 

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

Innovative Results, Innovative Results Gym, Innovative Results Family, Family workout, workout with family, group workoutsI have made great friends at Innovative Results.

It’s a great place for networking as you meet people from different walks of life.

I have a great respect for Aaron’s Marine Corps service background, and have embraced importance of discipline, good eating habits, importance of why we do what we do in my professional and personal life.

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

I would tell newbies that this place delivers long term results and will give you value for your money.

You will never get bored working out here.

If you give your best shot when you are at IR, you will be surprised to see how fast your physical limits overcome mental limits.

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

IR has become necessary partner in life.

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

There are few of my friends.

I will get them to try a free trial.

Orange County Fitness Gym, Improved quality of life9. Why do you stay committed to your improvement in and out of the gym?

Because I believe that we all are God blessed to have a wonderful life with beautiful kids & partner.

We get to invest in wellbeing, so that we can be around to nurture and protect these wonders for as long as we live, and let not aging become deterrent or create limitations.

Thanks,
Rakesh

6 Ways We Improve Your Mental Toughness During Innovative Results Active Performance Training

Every person that trains with the Active Performance fitness training class, must try-out, which ensures each individual has less risk and higher reward.

6 Ways We Improve Your Mental Toughness During Innovative Results Active Performance Training
Tryouts are the first Tuesday of each month at 6am & 6pm

Once they pass the rigors of try-outs, which includes pull-ups, push-ups, deadlifts, front squats, VersaClimber, and jump rope, they begin the process of increasing their performance and capacity.

This is a very physical process, which is programmed and coached by the best fitness coaches in Orange County.

But believe it or not, it is far more mental than physical.

Here are the 6 Ways We Improve Your Mental Toughness During Innovative Results Active Performance Training:

  1. Progressive Training Programs
  2. Giving Your Best, Even On Your Off Days
  3. Positive and Intentional Coaching
  4. Positive Support and Friendships
  5. Safely Pushing Beyond Physical Limits
  6. Staying Committed and Consistent for the Long Haul

The amount of mental toughness that is needed to overcome the obstacles, excuses, and physical demands of the training cycles is far greater than the training sessions themselves.

We all experience doubt, fatigue, laziness, confusion, lack of focus, anxiety, and even depression when we move toward our improved quality of life.

Let’s break down the ways that mental toughness is trained with a little bit more detail.

Progressive Training Programs

6 Ways We Improve Your Mental Toughness During Innovative Results Active Performance Training
Crawl Before You Walk, Walk Before Your Run

By utilizing progressive training programs, you can build a strong mental toughness without being demoralized by an overwhelming program or training cycle. Training cycles should build upon themselves, not be so difficult that you can never complete them. This type of intelligent and progressive training programming is not found in most gyms and training systems these days. It is okay to be humbled from time to time, but if every workout or training cycle is so hard that you cannot complete it, the person will end up quitting not overcome mentally.

Giving Your Best, Even On Your Off Days

victoria anthony collage, mental toughness, strong, active performanceWe all have off days, and those are the hardest days to commit, come train anyway, and overcome mentally and physically. That is why it is so important to make the commitment and do the work. When we let off days stop us in our tracks, it can be a slipper slope. I am not saying overtrain, or train when you are injured…be smart, and give the best that you have for that day, which might mean dynamic stretching, mobility, and light aerobic work. It may also mean, digging deep and doing the hard work that today demands. Each situation is different, but quitting is never the answer.

Positive and Intentional Coaching

mental toughness, mentally tough, good coaching, Aaron GuyettA positive and intentional coach, knows their clients and students. He or she will make the right adjustments, hold back, stay silent, speak up, demand more, etc. depending on the student and situation. If you are getting increases in your physical and mental strength and endurance, than your coach knows what he or she is doing, if not, it is time to have a conversation with your coach. If after the conversation, the coach doesn’t change and neither do your results…find another coach.

Positive Support and Friendships

Ladera Ranch Personal Trainer, ankorr, zuu, mental toughness, mentally tough, support, strongI have never seen, not heard of a lone wolf make it in the wild, and I have also never seen a lone wolf type person make it in a difficult training cycle. We are social creatures, and we need to be pushed, challenge, encouraged, inspired, motivated, and moved by our support and friendships. Just because Rambo and Chuck Norris are awesome on screen, doesn’t mean it works in real life. This is real life, and we need support and friendships to do incredible things.

Safely Pushing Beyond Physical Limits

Ankorr, zuu, mason, innovative results, mentally tough, mental toughness, strong, crawlAt Innovative Results, we are very picky about how we choose to push people past their perceived physical limitations. We do not choose box jumps or heavy barbell lifts overhead…that is a recipe for disaster. We choose low impact, high results exercises like ZUU, Ankorr, VersaClimber, FRC, sled, prowler, battle ropes, and other body weight movements. This way we can increase force without increasing risk. It is important to take the body to a level that is beyond what the person perceives they can do, and then show them, it was their mind that decided that is where they needed to stop. In doing this, the mind and body is taught a valuable lesson. When the mind quits, the body quits…it is NEVER the other way around.

Staying Committed and Consistent For The Long Haul

Kettlebell Crew, Kettlebell Team, Kettlebell, strong, mental toughness, medals, medalThis is probably the hardest part of building mental strength. Discipline seems to be a bad word these days, but the rewards found after someone stays consistent for 100 training sessions, and ALWAYS INCREDIBLE!! Never once have I heard of someone saying they regretted working out three days per week for the last three years. Never once do I hear Innovative Results long time veterans complain of price and value. They understand the high value they receive, and they would probably pay triple what they pay to receive the training they earn every week.

May your next week be your best week, and may your mental toughness sore after reading these 6 tips.
