I've known Cary for many years now - as a good friend, and a
personal trainer. Cary is gifted at understanding the abilities
and limitations of any client he works with and is able to tailor
a program perfectly to each individual. Motivation to get fit
is something I have struggled with, and Cary has been a great
motivator for me. When working out with Cary, I have never felt
intimidated or been made to feel inadequate. Cary's an encourager.
Cary also has a great sense of humour; it's amazing how a laugh
can make a workout that much more enjoyable. Finally, I've never
met a personal trainer who is more resourceful than Cary. I've
always joked that Cary could create a workout for me even if I
didn't have a lot of equipment. If all I had were a comb, a pair
of dice, some tissue paper, and an elastic band, Cary could figure
out some way to get me into shape!

In mid December 2001, I decided that I would get in shape and
loose weight. I am 6”2 and weighed 251 pounds, I wore a 48L jacket
and had a waistline of 42’. My body fat was 28.8%. After taking
a referral from a health store, I called Cary Gordon. My goals
were aggressive; Cary had his work cut out for him. After working
with Cary (in home training) he quickly determined a schedule
that suited my lifestyle and current equipment. (That was one
thing I appreciated, it would have been easy to have someone come
into my home and tell me that I needed to buy a whole new setup)
Cary told me that my “ideal” weight according to health Canada
was between 195-208 pounds and between 10-20% Body fat. As my
jaw hit the floor thinking I would never be able to get less than
200 lbs, or anywhere close to 10% body fat, we now had a goal.
Cary’s approach to personal fitness, coupled with changing what
I ate and when I ate it, I was on my way. Cary’s support throughout
this process was well appreciated, I often e-mailed or called
him with concerns and always received prompt attention reassuring
and confirming to me that this system will work. Encouragement
I needed. January 1, 2002 I started his program. By March 31 I
had lost 50 pounds and dropped my BFI (body fat index) to an amazing
18%. I have continued to adopt his process and am enjoying a better,
fit lifestyle. October 2002, I am proud to say that I am 6’2,
195 with a BFI of 15%, I wear a 42” jacket and 33’ pant. I am
working on getting my BFI to 12% and minus a major accident I
received this summer, I have no doubt that I would be there today.
By following Cary’s program I am very confident that I will achieve
this goal by Christmas. It feels nice (for once in my life) not
to worry about my weight, I know I look better, and I can see
it in my clothes. I never had the chance to tell you Cary how
much you have changed my life. My confidence has increased and
my enjoyment of life is exhilarating. I truly would not have been
able to do it without your support. THANK YOU.
I will and have recommended you to my friends and when approached
by those who have not seen me in a while, I am always first to
say (after thanking them for the compliment on my weight loss
and look) my personal trainer Cary Gordon helped me do this, want
his number?

It's hard to believe that it has been five years since you began
working as the Personal Fitness Trainer for AMJ Campbell. The
number of staff that you have placed on programs as well the number
of individuals who have maintained a program with you speaks volumes
about your abilities, your character and your attitude. The positive
impact that your presence has had on our employees has far outweighed
any costs associated with having you here.
On a personal note, I have always enjoyed working with you and
am amazed by your ability to motivate and challenge me. On behalf
of our emplovees, and myself, I would like to thank you for the
influence you have had and congratulate you on a job well done.
Yours truly,
