Army veteran takes on fitness with a sense of duty. Patrick S. Lydon named Assistant Area Director of FitWorx.

August 26, 2016 //  by admin

Pat Lydon photo 08 09 16Coming off of active duty in Korea, Patrick “Pat” S. Lydon, Army Medic, wanted to contribute something to the community and stay active in fitness.  He helped open the first FitWorx location in Pembroke three years ago and continued to help the company grow.  He has been named Assistant Area Director for the entire group which now includes not only Pembroke, but Weymouth, Easton and West Roxbury locations as well.

 

A Quincy resident and Braintree native, Lydon is a graduate of Braintree High School and earned an Exercise Science degree from Quincy College.   He also achieved American Council of Exercise certification as a personal trainer.  He captained the lacrosse team and lettered in football as Braintree High School.

 

“I had always been involved in sports and fitness,” noted Lydon.  He added, “I saw that baby boomers and others were looking to get back in shape and were in need of better instruction and programming.  I was drawn to the FitWorx philosophy of losing weight and building muscle via three 30-minute strength-training workouts per week and a high protein diet. Working one on one with members, it has been gratifying to be part of something that is transforming the lives of the 85 percent of the American public who hate to workout.”

 

FitWorx, the “non-gym” solution for a healthy lifestyle and weight loss with four locations in Massachusetts, supplements that effort by offering high quality, great tasting protein snacks and meal replacement shakes.

 

Get with the Program

FitWorx helps real people achieve a realistic weight loss goal with manageable, proven approaches to weight loss and fitness. FitWorx training and nutrition program is designed to help members reduce body fat percentage by increasing lean muscle by up to 10 pounds. It achieves this through three 30-minute strength-training workouts per week and a high protein diet. Typically, participants can increase their metabolism by up to 500 calories per day, or 3500 calories per week or one pound of fat per week at a resting heart rate.

 

Langella continued, “The FitWorx program sets participants, in particular those with sedentary lifestyles, weight issues or medical conditions such as High Blood Pressure, Type II Diabetes and High Cholesterol, on the path to weight loss and an overall healthier lifestyle.”

FitWorx announces new high protein based snacks and shakes

July 29, 2016 //  by admin

FitWorx W RoxburyHow much chicken can you really force down? A high protein diet can help to build muscle and accelerate weight loss. Protein sources such as seafood, lean meats, beans, eggs and nuts provide the nutrients a body needs along with the satisfaction of feeling full. But, with today’s busy lifestyles, most people aren’t able to consume enough protein through a conventional food plan.

FitWorx, the “non-gym” solution for a healthy lifestyle and weight loss with four locations in Massachusetts, supplements that effort by offering high quality, great tasting protein snacks and meal replacement shakes.

“The FitWorx program utilizes a high protein, low carbohydrate and moderate fat macronutrient profile. Following this profile along with ensuring the proper vitamins and minerals has tremendous effect on weight loss,” explained Rick Langella, founder of FitWorx.

He continued, “Our simple, proven weight loss system which includes sustainable meal plans and high quality, great tasting protein and meal replacement products, is designed to provide the necessary protein and nutrients that people need to stay on track without feeling the need to cheat with unhealthy options.”

Now, FitWorx protein snacks and meal replacement shakes are available to members and others seeking to supplement their high-protein diet. For example, FitWorx Vanilla Meal Replacement shake packs a whopping 35 grams of protein. Each Protein Bar, with flavor varieties such as peanut caramel and coconut almond, provides at least 14 grams of protein.

For a complimentary sample of FitWorx delicious protein products, stop by one of their locations in Easton, Pembroke, West Roxbury or Weymouth.

FitWorx Opens 4th Location in West Roxbury, MA

June 3, 2016 //  by admin

FitWorx W RoxburyFitWorx, the “non-gym” solution for a healthy lifestyle and weight loss, has recently opened doors of their fourth location at 1665 VFW Parkway in West Roxbury, MA 02132.

Geared towards those with sedentary lifestyles, weight issues and/or medical conditions, which may include High Blood Pressure, Type II Diabetes, High Cholesterol, and Coronary Heart Disease, the revolutionary FitWorx program sets participants on the path to a healthy lifestyle and towards reducing or eliminating the need for medication for such conditions.

Now, residents in West Roxbury, Dedham, Roslindale, Needham, Newton and Hyde Park areas are able to tap into an innovative program for a healthier lifestyle. FitWorx provides a guided solution to good health for everyone, regardless of age, shape, size or fitness objectives.

The new 8,800 square foot West Roxbury location resembles more of a spa than the typical fitness or weight loss center. FitWorx has a soothing, neutral color palette, and plenty of “elbow room” to move about. Tropical plants, natural lighting and carpeting accent the interior. Instead of free weights, members work out on state-of-the-art Cybex machines. FitWorx also presents a nonthreatening, family atmosphere where personal trainers aren’t in-your-face mercenaries, but trusted friends/advisors who care about members attaining health goals. And, members pay no extra for that caring – it’s part of the $59 monthly fee.

FitWorx programs include meal plans, exercise routines, and accountability for sticking with the plan. FitWorx FitCoaches track each member’s progress with weigh-ins, Fit Tests, and food journals.

FitWorx is owned and managed by partners Rick Langella, a 30-year veteran of the fitness industry, and Keith Johnson, personal trainer and professional athlete. The partners launched their first location in Pembroke in 2013. They now have four locations, and an ambitious plan to expand to 20 locations by 2020.

“FitWorx is specifically designed for the 85 percent of the American public who really don’t like to exercise and need a comfortable, supportive environment to help them develop a new healthier lifestyle. We have a unique and highly successful program that truly changes lives for the better, evidenced by our countless success stories. We empower our participants with the tools needed to attain – and maintain – a healthy lifestyle and better overall health for years to come,” explained Langella.

A FitWorx membership includes: full access to the facility seven days per week; friendly training with a FitCoach three times per week on full body strength training workouts; weekly weigh-ins; monthly re-evaluations to track progress and help determine the best course of action to reach goals; and personalized weight loss program and meal planning with weekly plan review.

January 5, 2016 //  by admin

Weight loss is the number one New Year’s resolution. In response, a free seminar entitled “How to safely lose weight and keep it off” is set for Mike Gottfried headshot 12 21 15Thursday, January 28, 7-8 p.m. at Aquidneck Chiropractic, 1272 West Main Road, Middletown, RI 02842.

Dr. assisted weight loss program announced by Dr. of Aquidneck Chiropractic

December 30, 2015 //  by admin

Aquidneck Chiropractic based in Middletown, RI announced that it has added the doctor supervised ChiroThin Weight Loss Program™ to their office. 

When asked what made Aquidneck Chiropractic decide to begin offering weight loss, Dr. Michael Gottfied commented, “The number of people in the United Sates that are overweight or obese has reached near epidemic portions.  Every day I have the opportunity to treat patients who are suffering with health conditions that can be associated to being overweight.  In fact, studies have shown that nearly 80% health conditions can be either directly or indirectly related to weight issues.  I have decided to take a stand and help the people of the Newport area regain control of their weight and as a result, their health.” 

When asked why he though weight issues have become such a problem, Dr. Gottfried said: “People have forgotten how to eat in a way that promotes health and being at their optimal weight and the two go hand-in-hand.  In fact, that is what made me decide to go with ChiroThin. It teaches people how and what to eat in the real world.  There are no shakes, no eating meals out of a box, no crazy exercise programs, and all of the food is purchased at the grocery store.”  Dr. Gottfried went on to say that many people, when following the ChiroThin program, lose 20-35 pounds in just 6 weeks and they are given the tools to help them make the weight loss more permanent.   Obviously, results may vary.

For a complimentary consultation that includes analysis of body fat, Basal metabolic rate (BMR), blood pressure and food plan history, contact Aquidneck Chiropractic, 1272 West Main Road, Middletown, RI 02842, (401) 849-7011, www.DrMGottfried.com.
