About TZG

It all started when I was young...

I grew up in a small town in Upstate New York on the border of Vermont. From a young age I always struggled with weight, but when it came to nutrition and fitness I didn't have much guidance. Now don't get me wrong my parents were and are amazing, but when it came to this they also didn't know much about it.

I started working out thinking that's what I needed but all it did was increase my hunger and fueled my weight gain. As I grew into my early 20s the weight started packing on more with partying and going out, my girlfriend and I had our beautiful daughter, I was selling cars and I stopped working out. My weight was spiraling out of control! I ended up at a weight just above 250lbs that was really all fat and very little muscle. That's when I knew something had to change.

Now fast forward to around 25-26 years old I started to realize that maybe it was what and/or how I was eating so I started looking into that. That's when things started changing for the better, I was able to drop down to 190lbs. However, I was still missing something important.

I was under the assumption that once I lost the weight I could go back to eating whatever and whenever I wanted. So all that progress I made got thrown out the window and I was back to square one but with more muscle and I only got up to about 235lbs this time around.

April 2024 is when I realized I had to take this more seriously and keep this weight off so I could be a good role model for my kids and be able to help them to never reach this point that I had. So I went back to what I did the first time and I started loosing the weight again. That's when I decided I wanted to help people that deal with this issue that I dealt with for so long. At end of November, beginning of December I started the NASM Certified Personal Trainer course, passed my exam January 8th, 2025 and have now started my journey to help as many people as I can take their life back!
