As a kid, I saw Linda Hamilton wow the entire world with her amazing athleticism in "Terminator". When she performed those pull ups that showed off her new physique, I was very impressed and little did I know that I would be training a real-life Linda myself. I met Isa when she was 50 when she knew nothing about working out, let alone being in a gym. Her old routine was home, work, home, church. Her amazing success at her age comes from her dedication, punctuality, and opennesss to learn. I must admit that a trainer is as effective as what the client is willing to put in and Isa "brings it on". And thank you Frank (her husband) for bringing her to me and I very much treasure my friendship with both of you. Congrats Isa ....my "Vixen Terminator" !!!
Letter from Isa:
I was forced by my husband to meet Moni in July 2005. My husband has been a member of this local gym for years and he had been trying to convince me to go ( I was 50 then) where apparently he had been watching this "excellent trainer". I told him he was not going to convince me to go. I had never put a foot in a gym before. My husband gave up on me and one day he came home and told me that he had enrolled my young nephew for 20 sessions with this trainer--what a relief ! My luck.... after his third session something came up and my nephew couldn't continue on with the rest of the sessions. My husband said he wasn't about to waste the money he paid and that I had to finish them -- I wasn't happy at all. It was dreadful.
Well, I've been training with Moni for 5 years now. What a change in my life !!! I love the gym now. I have met the nicest group of people there but the best part was when I met my dearest friend Pia. I'm a morning person and I'm at the gym usually before 5:00 am. I work out about 10 hours a week and Monday is my only day of rest. During the summer months,I take swimming lessons from Moni and I also go to his boot camp. He also introduced me to the art of hula hooping and it has brought a lot of fun to my workouts. I can do a couple of fancy moves now, haha.
I never wore sleeveless tops or tank dresses before and people said I had elephant legs ( no shape at all), boxy (square) belly and my butt was non-existent. Not to mention that at this age, I'm able to do 10 pull-ups. If Moni was able to shape me up at 55, he has to be "the miracle trainer "and my husband says I'm streamline. Thank you Moni for your immense determination and patience to shape me up. And I have to add that our friendship is PRICELESS.
