On March 18, 2003 David weighed in at a whopping 346 pounds and decided once and for all it was time to take control of his life. He made the first step by joining a local gym. After wandering around the gym aimlessly, unsure of what to do for the first three months, he hired a personal trainer. Two years later, he had lost 150 pounds but he had regained his confidence and self-esteem. David didn’t set out to TRANSFORM his life, but that’s what happened.

The knowledge and experience he has acquired through his personal training experience led him to a career in fitness and the opening of his personal training studio in Lincoln Park, Chicago.

“I have been training with Dave for a few of months now, and it has been a great experience so far! I am one of those people that just hates working out, but Dave makes it more than bearable and is always sure to keep me coming in when I am struggling to stay motivated. The atmosphere of the gym is great–it’s very private and comfortable. The location is also very convenient and Dave always works with my changing schedule. If you’re looking for a personal trainer in Chicago, there really is no reason to look any further.” – Jeffrey Zucker
