Truth About Dehydration
This is a portion of my monthly fitness segment on the Springtime65 Show on Public Access here in San Antonio. Sure, it is kind of humorous, but today I saw people wearing those ridiculous plastic suits while they sat in the sauna. I saw several people running in full sweats at 4pm. It’s 100 degrees out – that will KILL YOU. Sweating profusely does not lead to accelerated fat loss, it leads to dehydration and DEATH.
Enjoy the video – I’ll post the entire segment on hydration later!

Video Testimonial From A Client After One Year
This is my client Courtney, who has been working with me for just over a year. Below is her video and then her written testimonial, neither of which I can come close to doing justice by commenting on them. Courtney, you’ve been amazing to work with and I’m so very proud of the progress you have made. You’ve been a model client from the start, and an inspiration to everyone that has watched your progress.
Please take a second to watch her video and read her amazing body transformation success story, as it is very inspiring.
Courtney’s written testimonial:
I started training with Boyd 4 weeks to the day after my third baby was born. I was almost 40% body fat with no athletic experience, and desperately wanting to be the girl I always admired in my thin, healthy friends. The first day I consulted with him, I could see in his eyes that he already saw me as that girl. He was the first person to look at me for who I could be, and all he needed to do was take my motivation and combine it with his abundant knowledge of fitness and nutrition. He knew what I didn’t, that all of my goals were achievable with a little determination and a lot of sweat.
Over a year later, I’m down to 16% body fat and I can do things I’d never dreamed of. I couldn’t do one body squat before, now I squat with 45 lb plates on each side of the bar. I couldn’t do a lunge, now I can do 60 each leg in one set. I can leg press over 300 lbs. More importantly, I can wear shorts. I can smile at myself in the mirror. I can go out in public in my workout clothes, sweaty and red-faced, because I don’t care what anyone thinks. I know who I am now. I’m that girl that Boyd saw, hidden under 40% body fat and a thick layer of insecurities.
Boyd is my trainer because he believes in his clients. His holistic approach to changing your entire life and shaping you into the person you want to be is earth-moving. He invests himself wholly into each client. I see people walk in and out of his studio, looking up to him with such admiration because of the way he makes them feel. I know that look well.
Any trainer can show you how to bench press, how to use an elliptical machine, or how to eat vegetables instead of French fries. It might even work too. I’ll take my experience with Boyd over any trainer in this world. My whole life has changed, he has completely shifted my reality, and now I’m a different person because of him. He is an expert and deserves recognition for his work, with me and everyone else he’s encountered.
Boyd, thank you. You are the greatest decision I ever made. You’ve been with me since that first, awful attempt at a body squat and I appreciate that you’ve never made me feel embarrassed or out of place at your studio. You empower me and I am lucky to have you!

Monday Personal Trainer Video
Hey San Antonio,
Just wanted to post a quick vid for Monday. Just remember: there’s a lot of crazy information out there, and knowing how to determine what is true and what’s not when it comes to changing the body is extremely important. There are no shortcuts, and wasting the effort, time and money searching for a shortcut will end in frustration!

Another Misleading Study: Alcohol Helps Women Lose Weight. Bullsh!t.
Hey San Antonio,
Quick video blog about the irresponsible article published by the New York Times about how alcohol can lead to more weight loss for women. Another case of “what you want to hear” versus “what you need to hear”. Ahhh well, anything to sell papers…

So, IS IT WORTH IT?
Hey San Antonio,
Just want to take a second to share a little story about something that happened to me today! Is all we go through worth it? Is fat loss and looking/feeling great really that important? Of course, your answer is very individual specific, but I know how I feel about it. Enjoy the vid!
