Why
5
stars?
1.
The
result:
Aerobically,
I
have
long
been
very
active.
Four
years
and
8
months
ago,
concerned
about
muscle
loss
associated
with
getting
older
(alas),
I
gave
Discover
Strength
a
try.
My
goals:
minimize
muscle
loss
and
decrease
the
proportion
of
total
weight
comprised
by
fat
(vs
muscle).
Since
beginning,
my
strength
has
actually
increased
(I'd
have
been
happy
with
maintained),
and
my
body
fat
percentage
is
down
8
percentage
points,
2.4
of
those
in
the
last
6
months
(it
wasn't
high
to
begin
with).
It
works.
2.
The
methodology:
focus
(time
and
attention),
intensity,
technique,
isolation,
&
variation.
3.
The
trainers:
each
is
attentive
to
my
readiness
for
each
session,
both
mental
and
physical
...
it
seems
they
are
rather
good
at
reading
me;
and
each
then
adjusts
their
approach
in
subtle
ways
to
nudge
the
most
out
of
me
...
clearly
more
than
I'd
do
on
my
own.
After
6+
years,
I've
had
the
opportunity
to
work
with
many
trainers.
To
a
person,
they
are
outstanding.
There
are
perhaps
less
expensive
choices;
however,
it
would
be
inaccurate
to
consider
them
true
alternatives
or
substitutes.
