Here are a few testimonials from clients of Robert Jay Martin, the author of the book F.I.T. You WILL Make YOU Succeed!

I suffer from a very painful bone disease that, I'm sure Rob can remember, 
always had me in a cast, on crutches, or otherwise injured since I was a kid. 
40+ broken bones and 10+ surgeries for bone repair. Recently it's been herniated 
disks in my spine and a degenerating hip that needs replacing. Because of this, 
I've gained weight and lost energy and mobility. Rob's simple workout videos he 
posted a while back with the low impact workout ball has been nothing shy of 
fantastic for helping me regain mobility and reduce my pain. My doctors approved 
his methods as a great way for someone of my health to have a form of activity 
without further risk of injury. Thank you Rob for being so passionate about 
health. I cannot wait until I can do more and look forward to the help your book 
will provide when I'm able.

"I would like to share with you the experience I had training with Rob Martin as my speed trainer for the past 16 weeks.  First I would like to say in my job as a police officer, it is not only extremely important to stay fit but also to have a combination of speed, endurance and strength to be able to keep up and stay in control.  By combining his outstanding knowledge of the concepts and techniques associated with speed and endurance training, Rob consistently motivated me to work harder with every minute that I spent in the gym.  Rob starts with a thorough evaluation to determine specific imbalances or weaknesses that you have then creates a program to address those areas so you can achieve optimum physical health.  Because of Rob's set program and knowledge of what he is doing, I am currently running faster at a longer distance at age 41 than when I was at age 31.  As an athlete and a  police officer where physical fitness plays a huge role, it is nice to know that a trainer like Rob Martin is here to assist and make me a better person both physically and mentally.  If you want results and not just talk, Rob Martin is the trainer you are looking for."

Thanks to your work with David last year, he had a pain & symptom-free 
Fall tennis season.  I'm not sure how much you remember (other than David 
not being as overall conditioned as is ideal and practical).  Two tennis 
season's ago, he developed a case of tennis elbow and patello-femoral knee 
pain.  I came to the conclusion that as David isn't particularly physically 
active during the non-tennis season part of the year, that going from that 
level to the much higher level that competitive tennis demands was the culprit.  
This also meant that having him work with you allowed him to achieve a level of 
physical conditioning that permitted him to compete free of symptoms. 
Beyond that, many of his tennis matches would be all day affairs involving 
three matches.  This would demand performing for a range of  four to five 
and a half hours of play.  He had the conditioning and grit and was never 
noticeably more tired than his opponents.
    His fourth, and last, year of tennis was (in my humble opinion) his 
best.  Not only was it his most successful in terms of wins, but there were 
several times that he just totally performed as never before.
    Your help working with David was never forgotten by Mary (David's mom) 
and me.  I'm sure that David was thankful also as he's a sensitive kid who 
knows when he is being helped.  However, teens are not noted for frequent 
expressions of overt gratitude.

"My name is Dana Gonzalez, and I have been training with Rob Martin for the past
2 years. He has been instrumental in changing my lifestyle for the better. Rob cares
about his clients and helps them meet their goals. The combination of Rob’s
nutritional advice and weight and cardio training has greatly improved my health. My
blood pressure has dropped 20 points, I’ve lost 90 pounds and I have so much more
energy. And, at the age of 47, I started running 5k’s! His coaching works and I’m
living proof of it."

Simply put, Rob changed my life.  
 
"When I started working out with Rob I was a stressed out 30 year old parent of 
three young kids with a bad back.  I was also fat, 5’9” weighing 206lbs.  Over 
the last 11 months I have undergone an amazing transformation.  Thus far I’ve 
lost 19lbs, but probably twice that in body fat.  My body’s allocation has 
changed the most dramatically. I’m stronger, less stressed, have more energy, 
and no back pain!
 
Rob’s workouts are challenging, but not overwhelming.  My plan was an entire 
body workout, twice a week with a completely new routine every eight weeks.  
This kept it interesting and helped me avoid the plateau that comes from 
overworking the same muscles the same way. 
 
I can’t remember the last time I made it through a week without hearing someone 
say they have noticed the changes.  I never get tired of hearing, “wow you look 
great” or “have you lost weight” or “are you working out” and who would? 
 
Best of all is the mental benefit that comes when you KNOW that you can change 
your habits for the better.  Having the piece of mind to know that, although 
stressful times will come, you’ve equipped yourself to deal with it.  Knowing 
that you’ve allowed yourself to enjoy your wife and kids more because you have 
the energy to do so.  Simply knowing that you are healthy.
 
Simply put, Rob changed my life…with my help!"

"My name is Brian Dirkse. I am a 36-year-old married father of 6-year-old twin
girls. I started weighing 321 pounds. And 13 months later I weighed
243.2 pounds.

I met with Rob Martin and we did the assessment. We talked about nutrition,
my goals, and a lifestyle change. Rob showed me the equipment and we talked about
what would fit me best. Then Rob put together a plan. I lost 25 pounds the first month.
Rob was continually supportive in the weight room and with the cardio. We continued
to work on my routine and change it a little as I got more involved. Rob was always
there to answer any questions and has given honest, straightforward answers. I lost
10 pounds the second month and continued to lose 5-10 pounds every month. I made
my goal of losing 50 pounds by the end of the year.

Rob continues to answer questions and has been a huge influence on me in
reaching my goals. His knowledge and experience has been an asset in my
understanding that the day-to-day battles are important, but that the long-term
commitment to a healthy life should be the main focus."

Rob,

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know how much I appreciate your help in obtaining my fitness goals.  In the 3 ½ months since I have been working with you, I have dropped approximately 15 pounds without actually changing my eating habits.  I attribute this loss to lifting weights 3 times a week under your guidance.  I have always maintained a healthy cardio lifestyle, but have never actually stuck to a weight lifting program.  Also, with the program you have established for me, I have obtained an "excellent" body fat level.  When I first started your program, my body fat was 28.2%.  After only 3-1/2 months, my body fat has dropped to 17%.  With your help, I have obtained the goals I was striving for.  I look forward to training with you in the future and will recommend you to friends and family. 

Thanks for making this fun for me!

-Lori, Spring Lake, MI
