Tommie's View

"In my eyes work is never done. To better serve my clients I will always be adding new features and programs, supplementing my current programs to ensure that I am always offering the best of what’s available in the health and fitness industry. I've always had a passion to help others do better with themselves when it came to health.. While deployed in Turkey for the Iraq war I started training my comrades to get fit because there was too much sitting around in my eyes. When I got out of the Military and went on to College to study Exercise Sports Science that's when I realized that there is more to just training people physically. The mental aspect of training is far more important than anything. When you have a positive mind you can accomplish anything. I enjoy challenging people to become better. I am an expert at helping people get results and gaining confidence. Here at Slim Body we are family and we train that way."
