Before (Jan 2003)	After (2006)

Q: When did you get into fitness?
A: I got into fitness for myself. I wanted to be the best I could be. I needed more strength for boxing and my every day activities.

Q: What were your motivation tools?
A: I use my family and friends for motivation. They always encourage me. My training partners at MAC Fitness also give me good advice about my training. A good support system always helps, especially on the days I don't feel at my best.

Chris just competed in his first boxing match at MAC in December. He completed the competition and is training for the next event. Chris is a pleasure to work with. He meets here at 5am three times during the week and a couple other times on his own.

Are you looking for something different in your workout? Most people here do not compete in boxing; they just train for the great workout it provides and the confidence gained. Interested?Click here to get more info on our boxing page.
