The journey between my nephew Tyler and I has created a strong friendship and an absolutely incredible transformation inside and out.  I’ve had the privilege to train Tyler with his strength & conditioning for wrestling for over a year now.  Tyler has dedicated himself to getting better by working his heart out.  He trains at CFF three times per week and we run the stairs down at Nippert Stadium every Sunday.  It’s really gratifying being passionate about something that creates value in someone’s life.  We as trainers have the most rewarding job on the planet.  Any trainer can put an athlete through a workout that causes discomfort and count to ten BUT not many trainers can change lives and create a better athlete.  It is a privilege training my little, soon to be, big nephew.  As you can see, Tyler’s physical transformation is remarkable.   His work ethic is contagious and his confidence is beyond measure.  He is on a mission and has learned not to give up when things get hard.  He has endured the pain that success requires.  He appreciates the grind and discipline and refuses to not give in.  Sunday, running the stairs at Nippert stadium, he beat me for the 1st time with heart not muscle.  Usually, he would lay down exhausted on the field of Nippert.  He felt victorious beating his uncle.  I am so proud of my nephew.  Tyler has shown tremendous heart and dedication the off-season.  I am confident that his mindset will carry on the rest of his life, because now success is inside of him.  We as trainers are changing what the sprit will drive and what the mind will accept.  The best part of this story is that we have fostered a strong friendship and it is that journey, I have embraced.  I am definitely looking forward to his success this year.

Terry Norton is a senior wrestler at Milford High School. He began his  training with CFF in April 2009. At the time, he weighed 285lbs. Terry’s nearly 2-year journey has changed his life both on the mat and off the mat. He has lost 70lbs, has put on over 20lbs of muscle, and has decreased his waistline 42 to 34 inches. His internal fortitude and world-class work ethic has changed his life forever as he has achieved his goal of being in great physical condition and health. Terry is currently ranked 10th in the state of Ohio in his weight class. His accomplishments have empowered many and CFF is very proud of this young man. Training is undoubtedly about changing minds, bodies, and lives. Click on the picture above to see a larger image
