ABOUT CINDY

AUTOBIOGRAPHY

Growing up, I was a bit of a Tomboy; skateboarding, jumping ramps with my bike and playing football with my friends. I even boxed with my dad when I was 8 years old. I participated in cheerleading, dance class, and my favorite thing, which was gymnastics. However, I was the only girl I knew who was working out with free weights in a garage when I was 16.  I started working at the local gym in my town (now called Atlantis Health and Fitness) teaching group fitness classes and working in the weight room when I was a senior in high school. Being around bodybuilders inspired me to compete in the NJ Championship Bodybuilding contest (teenage division), which I placed 5

Twenty-two years, and three children later, I’m still at it with more motivation, more knowledge, and a greater desire to help other people obtain their goals. My past struggle with eating disorders has made me more sensitive to the needs of people of all sizes and shapes.  It has also forced me to do some serious soul-searching to realize we are all MUCH MORE than just our bodies.  I believe working out is something we do for ourselves to feel better, whether it’s for better health, to relieve stress, or just to get a burst of endorphins, our “happy hormones”.  To make a lifetime commitment to being healthy requires small, consistent changes in one’s lifestyle. I strongly believe that “straight and narrow is the path”, and it’s when we stray from this path that we are lost again.

TESTIMONIALS

Lisa exercising	Lisa after her pregnancy!!!

I exercised with Cindy up until my 39th week of pregnancy! I felt incredibly strong which helped me keep up with my 2 year old daughter and do everyday tasks effortlessly. Cindy was a huge inspiration for me. Not only is she a mother of three and looks phenomenal; but she makes it possible to reach your fitness goals.
Lisa Carr

My doctor told me to lose weight and get my heart rate up or else!  The two years I spent working out with Cindy Fox resulted in a 30 pound weight loss, reduced blood pressure and more energy. Cindy did a complete work-up regarding my health situation and adapted my exercise program to fit my individual needs. She was patient, encouraging and demanding when necessary. I was impressed with her knowledge of both the benefits of exercise as well as proper diet and nutrition. She is my “body guru” and I am very grateful.
Miriam

When I started training with Cindy, I was 10 pounds over weight.  I first met Cindy when I took a Body Sculpting Class she was instructing at Atlantis Fitness.  I enjoyed her class and style of teaching so much  so that I decided to inquire about working out with her on a one-on-one bases as my trainer.

Cindy had me follow a weight training program that consisted of running a lap between each set which allowed me to focus on losing weight by using weights as well as incorporating cardio into my workout.  Over the past year, I not only  lost 10 pounds, but I’ve notice a change in the shape of my body.  My body is more toned and defined and I am more comfortable with myself.  Having a trainer gave me the extra push I needed to loose 10 pounds and working with Cindy was great.  Thank you.

Since I began working-out with Cindy, I have definitely lost inches.  I worked-out with other trainers that focused too much on lifting weights and socializing.  Cindy gave me the right indications and more cardio to effectively lose weight.  Before Cindy, I was working-out and trying so hard with no results.    Cindy was right, I needed much more cardio and less weights.  I am thankful that she is around!

When I first started working out with Cindy, I wanted to get into shape for my vacation, and began training on a 6-week plan. During my vacation I felt great and was so pleased with my progress, I decided to continue.

That was well over a year ago, and I still work out with Cindy-not to get in shape, but to maintain it. I’ve lost over 30 lbs. And I feel terrific. I can even take Cindy’s workout videos with me when I travel.

It’s nice to know that staying in shape can actually be fun!

Cindy is a great personal trainer and I really look forward to our sessions.  Her circuit training style makes the hour fly by and her enthusiasm for fitness is motivating.  She not only talks the talk but she walks the walk believing fitness isn't a short-term goal but a long term lifestyle choice.  Both her professional and personal achievements have inspired me personally.

Did it today again.  Love it. Big compliment. I have a TamiLee Webb DVD called Tight on Time but I use yours more.  Some of the exercises are too gymnastic on hers.  I got it on half.com subsidiary of ebay.  I wanted to compliment you.  I love to exercise, pilates, love Gunnar Peterson Ball exercises, turbo jam (cannot follow Billy Blanks too fast)  and yours.  Got to get back in shape.  Been working some mean hours and falling back so making time now.  No excuses.  It is my kind of time and effectiveness.
