Long read but worth it!
8 weeks ago my dad called me and told me he went to the doctor and he needed to lose weight. I told him that if he wanted my help he would have to come from AZ to WI for 6 weeks and I would help him. Today my dad finished his 6 weeks here in Wisconsin. My dad has never worked out or eaten healthy before. He came here and crushed it. He lost 20# and 4.3% BF. That being said he had fun on the weekends and made changes he felt he could continue when he got back home! He did not do crazy workouts or starve himself. He ate more, Drank less and only walked(no weights) for the first 2 weeks!! I did not set unreasonable guidelines or have unreasonable expectations. To say I am proud of him would be an understatement. To give my dad the opportunity to feel better, look better and improve his quality of life means everything to me!! Who means everything to you that needs to hear this or see this? Whose life do you want to change today? #fitnessmotivation #proudkid #yourchoice

I Just want to say how proud I am of my sister @mrs_lopez_143.637 she is down 75# in a year. When Kira started my online program she had never worked out before and didn’t know anything about nutrition. I had asked her several times if she was interested and she’d turned them down. Finally she was ready and we got started. With my guidance and her consistency and determination she has absolutely crushed it! It is possible for almost any to be successful and create a healthy lifestyle if you put your mind to it. Kira, I’m so excited to see you continue to crush it! Love you!
3 Quick Tips for the Bulgarian split squat🔥
1. Set up is everything! The height of the bench matters and so does the distance away!💥
2. Body position - maintain a vertical shin, hinge at hips for glutes activation. Weight on front and heel and do not lock out at the top of the movement. 🫡
3. Feel it! Everyone is different. You may need to make minor adjustments to feel it in the glutes! 💪🏼

After trying different fitness regimes and having other coaches without seeing the results I had hoped for my sister introduced me to Danny. Where I started working with him online back in October when I was at my lowest point. I remember having to take my before photo and being so uncomfortable and embarrassed in my own skin. That photo hid in my camera roll for the next 5 months.
Now fast forward and looking back at how far I’ve come in just a short 5 months and I couldn’t be more confident in myself!
Danny has really helped support and push me through the tough weeks and the roller coaster of changing my eating habits and helping me stay consistent with my workouts. I couldn’t be more grateful for a coach like him!
With the summer months approaching he’s taking on new clients for 50% off. Jump on this opportunity to feel as good in your skin as I now
We have 3 months until summer, do you have a plan of action? Or are you going to keep doing the same thing that hasn’t been working?

🔥AMAZING CLIENT TRANSFORMATION🔥
Congratulations to my client and friend Cassie for absolutely crushing it!!💪🏼
I began coaching Cassie in person in AZ in 2019. After I moved back to WI, we lost touch and she began working with other trainers. After not getting the results she wanted to with them, she reached back out to me and we began training online.
These photos are 18 months apart, and throughout those 18 months it wasn’t always smooth sailing. We overcame some significant obstacles, including some mental ones, but Cassie came out on the other side stronger and more disciplined than ever. Now people approach her and ask for fitness advice while she’s out and about.
Cassie has four kids, is a busy professional, and is still reaching all of her fitness goals.
🔥🔥Are you ready to make it happen?

Danny is hands down one of the best personal trainers in central Wisconsin! While it’s true, you do have to put in the work to get the results, I could not have done it without him! He has decades of experience, working with diverse clients, of all ages, from beginner to advanced fitness levels. He sits down with you one-on-one, and personalizes your own workout routine to your personal goals. He helps you work on your nutrition, because believe it or not, that is a HUGE part of getting your results. Danny is enthusiastic, personable, energetic, helpful, passionate, and every other trait you might look for in a personal trainer. I recommend Danny Nichols 110% to anyone and everyone who is ready to stop holding themselves back, work hard, and chase after the results that they have always dreamt of.

I had just moved to Wausau in October 2019 and with a change in location, I also wanted a change in my health. I was connected to Danny through my local gym and quickly found his training style was adaptive to my personality and training goals, but also was able to push me past my own expectations of what I could really do. I have never been an athlete, but Danny made me feel like one. The drive and passion he puts into his work mirror his client’s results, mine included. I was able to lose 10 pounds of fat while gaining crazy muscle and losing inches all around in only 14 weeks. All I had to do was show up, work hard, and be thoughtful of my daily intake- and Danny planned the rest. Do what he says and you WILL see results.

I’ve been working with Danny doing online coaching for the last 14 months. I met Danny in 2019 through a local gym and had great success. Shortly after he moved out of the state, the pandemic began and the weight packed on. I tried working with two other coaches before reaching out again to Danny. After just a few weeks I was already noticing major changes. Bodyweight dropping, fat loss happening, and huge muscle gains. I lost close to 30 pounds overall and down over 12% body fat. It was through his online programming combined with excellent nutrition guidance that paved the way for mg success!

Before starting with Danny, I was training on my own for about a year, but I was not getting the results that I wanted. I was not happy with my appearance, and I wanted to lose body fat and increase my strength and muscle mass. I began working with Danny last December, and he helped me create a consistent approach to nutrition that took what I was already eating and slightly altered it to be conducive to my goals. He also created a personalized training plan for me and helped improve my form on different weightlifting movements. Since then, I have lost over 55 pounds, added over 100 pounds to my squat, gained muscle and strength, and most importantly, gained confidence and love for my body! Danny has helped me realize that I am capable of more than I thought was possible, and he pushes me to be the best that I can be every single training session.
