This is a LONG POST BUT READ TILL END! So I’m not big on reviews, but I just know for a fact this experience deserves a review!!! So I’ve always been a small p...erson weighing no more than 115 my whole life. I’ve had 3 kids 2 girls 13,7 & my baby boy who is 8 months. I was so happy to put on weight after birth, but a few months later I begin loosing all my baby weight. I was not happy about it, I have a hard time with eating due to being a full time mother military spouse (husband deployed) kids in online schooling, 8 month-old baby boy and me being a hair stylist. As you see I don’t have much time to myself so it’s easy to skip meals... I found myself only eating at night when I cooked dinner for the kids and at that point I would eat a small plate and go to bed totaling 1 meal per day. Jan 12 2021 I was getting Dressed I looked at myself in the mirror and did not like what I saw, i looked so skinny it was alarming I said then and there, Nope Porche you got to do something about this! I immediately did my research and came up on Go Great Fitness, BLACK OWNED trainer , I watched his page and stocked his stories for a bit. What caught my attention was the motivational post and the high spirits/energy in every post. I thought this training company would be a good fit for me. I reached out to Coach X he responded within 5 minutes. I let him know I wanted to inquire about his services and instead of loosing weight like most people wants I wanted to GAIN weight, we booked a consultation so that we could meet in person and really talk about my goals. At that consultation I asked about a powder to gain weight, this is when I knew I would Book his services ..he said listen I’m gonna be honest with you, I could give you information for a protein powder that will help you gain weight, but I don’t recommend or base my programs off of that because what if you want to stop taking the protein powder.. then what?!!! I swear a light bulb went off in my head .... I said WOW! You are 100% right, this is not a quick fix! It’s a marathon!!! We spoke about the days/times that would work for me he is very flexible tbh and our training session was booked! He sent me a list of training sessions and let me choose my speed. I agreed to 2 days per week $65 which in my opinion is a STEAL! he said I could pay weekly, bi weekly, monthly it was up to me! I choose bi weekly as it’s easier for me! Same day he sent over the contract I signed and we were scheduled that Tuesday for our first training! First day of training I showed up at the field 4pm sharp he was there already very prompt on directing me to the field and had all the equipment ready to go. As soon as I sat my water down he said ok I’m gonna have you warm up give me a lap, I was taken back as I haven’t ran a lap in 10 years lol since high school but it was so refreshing being out on that field running in the fresh air!! It was a BIG YES for me already lol . Once I finished he immediately asked how I was feeling ( I said winded lol I ran too fast) he then gave me the jump rope told me to jump to keep up my momentum lol I was winded. Took a small water break then we started with the squats I didn’t know anything about working out it’s kind of intimidating, but I felt very comfortable he instructed me on how to position my legs, how to lower my body what positions I should and should not do , why and why not and this is basically how the entire hour went! I was impressed!!! I lifted some weights we talked some more about the goals and the food I should eat and how often we talked about calorie intake and just pretty much any & every question I had he answered. We finished the training session with some intense stomach workouts as he said the goal is to gain weight but still keep your body fit! Ok so our next session was Thursday 2 days later... when I woke up the next day 8am I get a message from Coach X and it says our word for the week is consistency I said ok Consistency, little did I know this message was gonna be the thing that kept me going.. let me tell you my legs were sore , arms a bit sore but more than anything my legs were feeling it lol all day I kept saying ummm I don’t know if ima go tomorrow my legs hurt lol so comes Thursday morning I message him like I think I want to just come once a week because my legs are killing me, this is his response I want you to know that this is your decision however... it does get easier the first day is always intense but soon your body will be used to working out and that soreness will go away! He also recommended a protein for muscle recovery! When he sent that I was like Omg Porche CONSISTENCY!!! Lol it was like nope ima come!! Lol those words of encouragement and our word of the week kept me going! I went Thursday and to my surprise I did great !! We lifted weights did some intense workouts and I was super happy I came! I also noticed he had a little boy maybe 10 years old & a young men In high school he was training for football season i saw how involved he was with them and it was heart warming!!! ( he is well rounded with this training stuff). That day was so motivating for me!!! I went home that night and was pumped !! Friday comes my arms are on fire lol I just knew Tuesday I was gonna make an excuse as to why I couldn’t come work out lol yesterday (Tuesday) I had trouble with the kids and the time we would normally meet on the field 4pm I wasn’t available I let Coach X know and he informed me that we would be training today at the gym, I was a little nervous because I have never worked out in a gym and I just didn’t want to look stupid lol so here comes the excuses lol well the baby was being fussy and my baby’s sitter wasn’t available for the usual time so I messaged coach x literally 30 minutes before our session and was like I might not make it today because blah blah blah we might need to reschedule and he was like ok but I’ll be here at the gym till 7pm., I had no excuse after that lol I got my self together put the baby to sleep and headed out at 530, I made it to the location 550pm a boxing gym. I was intrigued the gym was small and intimate not many people in it, everyone had mask on and the vibe and energy was on 100 when I walked in. Coach X greeted me immediately and told me where to put my water he said to warm up with the jump ropes! I looked around and it was other woman , kids, & men inside all ages & to my surprise no one was worried about me lol, I thought this is awesome! There was this huge mirror where I was warming up which I love because I got to see myself working out it gave me more confidence. Next we did some additional warm ups and Coach X asked me hey do you wanna do regular work out or would you like to try boxing? I was like hell yes I want to try boxing !!! I’ve always wanted to box but never had the courage to do it or even try it! I was so happy I came at that point I was pumped!!! We worked on my stance he gave me back ground info I learned some things I punched some bags, and it was a great workout!!! He made sure to ask me if I ate and how much we talked more about his expectations and more motivational talks Before our session was over, & at the end he offered to teach me boxing ( as he is a boxer as well, like I said well rounded trainer) we then agreed the cardio part of my training sessions would now be boxing!!!! Leaving the gym I felt so empowered so happy so motivated!!! I can’t wait to see this glow up !!! I am just please and blessed that I came across such an amazing trainer who LISTENS to my goals, motivates, push, & never gives up on me!!! I said ALL of that to say this!!

Before I post these pictures, to my clients I’ve only been doing my kids, mom and sisters hair for this past 6 months of being quarantined. I am not accepting appointments just yet, but I will be very soon, I’m in the process of getting my King adjusted to his swing so that this going back to work thing will go smoothly. First things first, when I start accepting clients again be aware that I will screen EVERYONE and you will need to sign a non disclosure agreement along wi...th a consent form basically stating that you haven’t had or experienced any symptoms due to Covid-19 or haven’t been exposed nor tested positive. I have all my necessary supplies to make sure everyone is safe while at their appointments along with me following the CDC guidelines. First and foremost when arriving to appointment make sure you are SOLO, bring your phone, car keys and form of payment ONLY please do not bring bags, jackets or anything else, hair products and hair will be provided & included. You will be screened before reaching my door, face mask are required for screening. When you reach the area, I will have you sanitize your hands, then I will take your temperature, once temp check is normal I will proceed to give you a sanitized clipboard and pen to sign consent form, NEXT you will remove your personal face mask and I will give you a brand new disposable face mask, NEXT I will have you sanitize phone, car keys and personal mask with my portable sanitizer box, you will put belonging in box and it will sanitize them within minutes. While doing that I will have you sanitize hands AGAIN, I will then hand you some new gloves and drape you with my disposable plastic hair capes. I will give you back sanitized belongings and we will proceed to enter the hair room. Next I will ask about hair history and confirm style, once style is confirmed I would appreciate holding off any unnecessary conversation due to the Covid conditions. music will be playing & naps are welcome, once style is complete I will let you look in mirror to approve style, payment will be made & I will send you on your way. Outside the door there will be a trash can where you can dispose your used gloves & mask. Yes this is what it takes to make an appointment with me... I would rather be safe than sorry. I have a 3 month old newborn along with 2 other kids that I am protecting. These are MY rules and regulations to be serviced. Happy Booking
