Paige Crawford
September 2016
Cincinnati native Paige Crawford, 26, moved with her fiancé (soon to be husband) to Atlanta in July 2015. Prior to moving, Paige visited the studio and consulted with Mandy to get a solid nutrition plan and set long-term and short-term fitness goals with the end goal being wedding ready for her September 17th nuptials! Paige has set weight loss, body composition and strength and endurance goals this past year. She has lost more than 18 total inches (4 in the waist) and over 14 pounds while gaining lean muscle mass and drastically decreasing her body fat. In addition to her weight loss, Paige set a goal to complete her first Peachtree Road Race and has a new time goal for an upcoming ½ marathon in December. She is also the current studio record holder for the V-Max and 500m row.
Paige’s dedication to setting goals and bettering her health and fitness is unbelievably inspiring! Thanks Paige for filling the studio with your warm smile, positive attitude, caring personality and drive to succeed!
Please join us in wishing Paige congrats on her success in and out of the gym and best wishes on her special day and upcoming marriage!
Happy September, everyone!
Continue believing in yourselves, working hard and being the best version of you!

The craze for avocados has increased over the past few years. Not only are people discovering more and more recipes, but they are also discovering health remedies with avocados. Avocados can be used for numerous things, and almost never fail to make a snack or meal more tasty. Who doesn’t love guacamole, avocado and eggs or avocado toast? People even enjoy eating avocados by themselves these days!
Avocados surely are a delicious superfood, full of good fats and vitamins; so, why not dig down a little deeper into what exactly is so healthy and great about avocados?
Below are some fun facts about avocados (adapted from: www.popsugar.com):

Stephanie Aaron
June 2016
Stephanie has come such a long way in her time training at our studio. First thing you’ll notice about Stephanie is that she always walks in with a smile one her face and brings positive energy to each training session. Not only does she do a great job in the studio, but she also does a great job with her nutrition and workouts outside of the studio. Stephanie’s dedication to her workouts and nutrition has resulted in a total loss of 32 inches and her strength has gone through the roof! In a short four week period she increased her 1-rep max on bench, squat, deadlift, and push press by 10-35lbs. resulting in numbers of 110, 170, 150, and 75 respectively (who’s says ladies can’t lift heavy?!). She’s also been a great influence on her friends and getting them involved in exercise as well! Thank you for your motivation, encouragement and inspiration to others! Congratulations Stephanie on the progress thus far, keep it up!
CLIENT OF THE MONTH
Beth
April 2016
We are proud to introduce you to our April 2016 client of the month, Beth Wellesley! Beth, 33, has been on a path to success since the day she walked in for her first session over 3 years ago. When Beth first came to Brad Kolowich Jr Personal Training Studio she was preparing for her upcoming wedding. Since her June 2013 nuptials, Beth has continued to commit to two workouts a week AND (other than travel) she has yet to miss a single workout! Beth has sustained a healthy lean physique through regular strength training, walking, yoga and having a positive ‘can-do’ attitude!
Late last summer Beth announced she and her husband would be expecting their first child in May 2016. At 35 weeks pregnant, Beth has continued to work full time and sustain her regular training schedule. Though step-ups, push-ups and bench dips might not feel as easy as they did nine months ago, you won’t hear Beth complain but rather you’ll see her smiling through the task at hand. Her optimistic disposition and dedication to she and her growing baby’s health is nothing short of exceptionally inspiring! Thank you Beth for being a source of motivation and inspiration for us all! Congrats on your growing family and best wishes as you round the corner to the final weeks of your pregnancy!
