Get in Shape for a Fitness Show
Q & A with Expert Trainer Chris Powell
Stacy in Tempe is looking for a trainer.
"Dear Chris,
 I am interested in participating in a fitness show in the future. Here's my question: can you recommend a personal trainer in the Tempe area who is affordable that I can work with?
Thanks for all the help,
Stacy"
Dear Stacy,
How exciting! Congratulations on your decision to do a show. This will be an amazing experience and opportunity to learn about your body. Fortunately for us, Arizona has become a hotbed for training, from competitive fitness & bodybuilding to sports & performance. I do know of several trainers in the area that can guide you through both contest preparation and contest nutrition. However, many fitness competitors will actually split their contest preparation between a nutritionist & a trainer.
One of the most reputable nutritionists for women’s contest preparation actually lives out in California, but can guide you through your contest prep with weekly online photos. He is the nutritionist for Monica Brandt, and will have a handful of girls on stage at the upcoming Olympia. Although you will not receive much one-on-one attention, his nutrition program is solid and he has been able to do amazing things for many women. Because he can guide you online, you will probably pay less than actually meeting with a nutritionist one-on-one. His name is Kim Oddo. Here is a link to his site: www.bodybyo.com.
 In fact, one of his seven girls who will be on stage at the upcoming Olympia, Andrea Dumon, is a trainer in Scottsdale. I know you are looking in the Tempe area, but if you are serious about doing a show, she’s worth the small commute. She knows the industry inside and out, and can get you into contest shape in no time. She will cover your prep for the contest from body building, to sculpting, to working the trouble spots, to posing. All in all, she’s got to be one of the best in the industry! You can check out her website at www.andreadumon.com.
Tell her I sent you!
~ Chris
