If you are one of the 184 million Americans who are overweight, you know how hard it is to lose weight and keep it off. Perhaps you have tried diets in the past, only to lose weight and then gain it all back. It can be demoralizing, can't it?
It's not all your fault, you know. There is a multi-billion dollar industry out there telling you how to lose weight, and most of the information they are giving you is wrong.
I can help you lose weight permanently.
Guaranteed!

About Me
My name is Tim Graham. I am a personal trainer in Columbia SC. I am certified by the American Council on Exercise, or ACE. This is the leading certification body in the personal fitness industry. See the acefitness.org link at the bottom of this column for more information about the American Council on Exercise.
I am also a Certified Nutrition Specialist, certified by Lifestyle Management Associates. The lifestylemanagement.com link is at the bottom of this column.
I have been learning my trade for 30 years. I am 61 years old now, but when I was 30, I was 35 to 40 pounds overweight, and I smoked 3 packs of cigarettes a day. On New Year's Day 1977, I resolved to stop smoking and get in shape. Through exercise and proper diet, and mostly by trial and error, I stopped smoking and lost the excess weight.
Today I have less than 9% body fat. My blood pressure is consistently 120/80 or below. My resting heart rate is in the 40's or low 50's. In recent years, I have completed several half marathons, three sprint triathlons (half mile swim, 16-mile bike ride, and 5k run), and three 4-mile Marine Challenge Mud Runs consisting of mud pits and other obstacles. This year my goals include another Mud Run, at least two 10k races, at least two 8k races, and at least four 5k's. I tell you this to let you know that I know how to get results, and I practice what I preach.
I can help you achieve the results you want. Whether it is to lose a few pounds or a few dozen or whether it is just to achieve a minimum level of fitness so you can play with your kids or grandkids without getting tired or carry a bag through the airport without getting winded. (You may read several testimonials from my clients by clicking on the "Testimonials" page.)
I know one concern is the cost. Well ease your mind. Personal training sessions are relatively inexpensive.
Think of the cost of joining a health club and then not using it or going on an expensive diet program, only to gain all the weight back after you complete it.
And have you ever bought an expensive piece of exercise equipment only to have it gather dust in the garage?
What about the emotional cost of failing again? Not to mention the cost of medical treatment for problems caused by a sedentary lifestyle.
The truth is hiring a personal trainer is really the most cost efficient thing you can do. (Incidentally you can see my rates by clicking on the "Rates" page.)
