GETPHAT with Jen Online Training Testimonials I had weight trained hard for two years and previously had been an avid runner. However, a year had zoomed by fast due to unplanned events which caused an interruption in my work out. Then, laziness set in. After the laziness, junk food, packaged food, pizza, an increase in coffee, soft drinks had also set in. Water, what was that? Was that something I used for my lawn or was I supposed to drink it? I counted the water in my coffee as having drunk water. I wondered why I didn't feel well. So, I tried to get back into running and to start working out, but the motivation wasn't there. I felt overwhelmed. I didn't like how I felt, and I didn't like what I saw in the mirror. I tried to plan my nutrition, but each time, I felt overwhelmed again. I worked with a local trainer, but I didn't feel satisfied, I.e. My questions weren't answered, my diet was limited and similar to others, no recommended cardio workouts, and I wasn't progressing. I just felt like something was missing.
I was surfing the net one afternoon, and I thought to myself that I hadn't been to Jen Hendershott's website in a while. I have always been a fan of Jen's fitness routines and admired how much she has brought to the sport. I have also been interested in attending a PHAT Camp. So, I cruised out to the site, and I noticed a new link- www.GetPhatOnline.com. The next thing I know, I am clicking the link. The link was more than I had expected. Jen had comprised a team of world class athletes, each with a specialty. My interest grew, and I was clicking every link on the GetPhatOnline site, reading the background of each individual on the team, looking at before/after photos and clicking to each team member's website. Before I knew it, I had been reading on the web for over an hour. I thought to myself that if I can't go to a PHAT Camp this year, why not give this a try. I emailed a question, and Lishia Dean called in response to my inquiry. It is one of the BEST decisions that I have ever made. I am the type person who needs to have a plan. I.e. Everything needs to be laid out. I need to know what/when to eat, how much cardio/weight training and at what intensity. That alone would remove the 'overwhelming feeling' of having to figure out weight/cardio/nutrition planning so that I could focus on what was important- eating healthier and building a strong heart and bones. I received a portfolio with detailed information that was easy to read, and most importantly, recommendations for foods- good foods and foods to avoid along with questions of what I liked which was so different than previous experiences with other trainers and not to mention tools/tips for organization and planning. I didn't think it could get much better than that, but I was mistaken. Jen herself called me to introduce herself. I remember thinking that I must have sounded like a country bumpkin- 'Get out, this is really Jen Hendershott?' Then, whenever I had a question about my diet or workouts, I would email Lishia, Heather and Betsy. Within minutes to an hour, I always received a response to my email if not a phone call. And, it wasn't so much an answer to my question, but to also receive motivation along the way. My clothes started feeling looser and I had noticed the scale displayed a lower weight. My energy levels increased physically and mentally. Now, I am ready to START the day rather than just get through the day. I don't want to miss my morning cardio. I have gained confidence, consciously read labels for food and ask myself, if I really want that food or if I really want to press the snooze button and have eliminated coffee from my diet completely. I know that I have a team supporting me. Not because it is their job, but because they sincerely CARE. I am starting Week 5, and I am psyched. I have my new plan for the week, and the Team has provided further customization based on their inquiries and my feedback. I can't express enough how sincere everyone on the Team is and the amount of time that each team member has taken with me as I have asked a lot of questions. Jen and her Team do an outstanding job of reaching out, and they truly care about me as a person. I hope in the future that I can contribute to them as they have contributed so much to me, and they each have a special place in my heart." Sincerely, o0OOO0o “I have just finished my 12 week program with GetPhatOnline. The experience has been one of a kind. Aside from the knowledge all of these women have they have an exceptional talent keeping you motivated and on track. o0OOO0o Lori Parks
“After attending Phat Camp in New York, I knew I needed to get back in the weight room and the rest of the LIVE PHAT program was a bonus. I am on week seven of the LIVE PHAT program. It has been a very positive seven weeks for me. I knew that I needed structure and I sure got it. I have absolutely no reservations about recommending LIVE PHAT to anyone." o0OOO0o "While following the GetPhatOnline Program with close to 100%, but not perfect commitment, I have not really lost any weight over the last eight weeks. Although my brain can process this, it is difficult to stay keenly motivated in my heart sometimes. However, my hubby and I recently attended a Unicef Gala and at one point during the evening there was a group of four (two couples) who all turned around and stared at me momentarily. After a minute or so, one of the women in the group came over and apologized for their staring. She said they just wanted to tell me how amazing I looked! I was flabbergasted as you can imagine! I thanked her for her kindness and told her how much I appreciated her words. My husband, of course, always tells me how great I look but sometimes it’s nice to hear it from someone else. That lady made my whole month! It finally sunk in that although the scale might not be moving, I am making great progress! With the help of my coaches at GetPhat, I feel and look stronger, tighter and more fit. Because I generally wear NIKE all day long, I don’t really notice my clothes fitting differently (lycra only fits one way!). Until I was recently in Las Vegas, I haven’t had my jeans on for over a month. In Vegas however, they were loose where they were previously tight (around my dreaded thighs) and overall fit much better! I owe my thanks to everyone at GetPhat who have gotten me this far and who have committed to going the distance with me while I try to achieve my personal goals." Rosanne Woods o0OOO0o "I am currently on week seven. My goals were to lose fat, of course. More importantly, I needed to learn how to balance exercise, nutrition and life! I was a cardio queen --worked out too much and wasn't seeing results. LIVE PHAT has taught me how to eat for life and working out doesn't have to be grueling! o0OOO0o June Szajna June Szajna o0OOO0o “I read your team's biographies and thought how approachable and nice you were to people who sought some help from you to become fit. I have never competed, so I don't know too much about the world of fitness/figure competitions. However, I di

The team realizes that although we would love for our lives to be put on hold while we are striving to achieve our goals, it doesn't! They hold you accountable for your decisions, but have a remarkable way of coaching you through the program with compassion, knowledge and a true belief in you and your goals.
d watch some documentaries about female figure competitors on TLC and Fit TV and learned how much effort and disciplines went into competing. I imagined a famous competitor like you, Jen, would probably be too busy to deal with a newbie/non-competitor like myself. Although I won't be able to have a trainer by my side, I feel I have been very welcomed and already been taken care of well by you and the rest of team.”
"I am currently on the end of week 2. My goals are to get back into shape and eventually lose the 40 lbs I put on over the last 7 years. It’s been great - I have noticed inches falling off. I have lost 8 lbs and clothes that I haven't worn in over 2 years fit!!!"
