As a busy physician, I never had enough time to dedicate to training. I had all the right or wrong excuses as to why other things in my life were more important than staying physically fit. Once I realized how out of shape I was and how it would impact my health, I attempted to work out on my own but I lacked the structure and guidance to be successful and therefore fail at all of my attempts to implement change, It took the photograph shown here to awaken me to contact Eli's Fitness. Joao Neto has given me the support, motivation and guidance to achieve the results that I have always wanted but was unable to achieve on my own. My waist size has gone from 34 to 29. Now at 50 I feel and look better than I ever had.
Thanks Joao,
Rene A. Poveda M.D.

I met Joe in May of 2001 weighing 212lbs. By November of 2001 I competed in the 2001 Extreme Challenge at 180lbs. In October of 2002, I competed in Turkey for the USA Team at 154lbs in the Women's World Boxing Championships winning the Silver Medal.

In 2006 I fought at 145lbs. as a professional boxer. I still work out with Joe and have been able to keep the weight off. My weight loss and ability to keep it off is directly related to Joe's knowledge and training methods and his ability to motivate. My success in this new career came from my weight loss and confidence I gained, I owe to him.

Thank you Joe for a new lease on LIFE.
