Hello! Welcome to my site!  My name is Christine Gennarelli and I am fitness professional and entreprenuer who has had the pleasure of helping others transform their life through fitness, nutrition, motivation and coaching.  Throughout the years I've had several roles and moments which have been exciting, rewarding and life changing for myself and those who I have worked with.  

A Little More Background about MY PERSONAL JOURNEY

For the better part of my life, I struggled with my weight, feelings of hopelessness, self-esteem and depression.  For years food was my best friend.  It comforted me at night, consoled me when I was down and was non judgmental.  Battling my weight as a child was extremely difficult; the teasing and bullying created more of a complex, more emotional issues and more overeating.  As the years went on late night binges became part of the norm.  I hated what I was doing to myself, my body, my well being - but I couldn't stop. 

Topping the scale at 340+ pounds, it became increasingly difficult to walk, get out of bed, shower, drive...along with all the other daily activities.  With no connection to the outside world or a network of social support, feelings of hoplessness and despair set in and I HIT ROCKBOTTOM.  I wanted to give up.  

Not only was I eating the wrong foods at the wrong times, I was smoking and hardly moving.  My unhealthy lifestyle led to SEVERE CHEST PAINS, shortness of breath and GALLBLADDER DISEASE.  I was a WRECK!  I NEEDED HELP AND I NEEDED IT FAST!  I knew I had to take charge and with so much life to give, a ton of ENERGY and enthusiasm waiting to be unleashed, I was not living up to my full potential.   The BOTTOM LINE... I was unhappy with the person I had become.  

At the age of 36 I finally had my "Aha" moment! I decided to TAKE ACTION and joined a group fitness program. I had no idea what to expect but I didn't care. Was I SCARED? YES!  I was petrified.  Was I in PAIN? YES, but it didn’t matter.  My world opened up and I experienced the greatest thing ever - working out on a daily basis with people who motivated and inspired me to push and reach for my goals.  I LOVED EVERY MINUTE of it!  My inner athlete was coming out and it felt AMAZING!  Working out daily became my norm and so did making healthy choices in the kitchen.  I DID NOT STARVE myself ... I ate 3 meals a day, a snack or two and drank a lot of water.  With this new healthy lifestyle and outlook on life I was becoming a new person.

With this new life, came a new purpose; to begin my career in the industry as an instructor.  With a deep desire to help others with their own personal transformations I was thrilled.   As I continue on my own personal and professional journey, as an entrepreneur, my core values are to continue helping, MOTIVATING and EMPOWERING others to be the best versions of themselves.  

7+ years later I have been able to SUSTAIN a WEIGHT LOSS of around 200 POUNDS.  The key to one's success is to keep going and FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS!  Pain and fear are part of the growth process.
