#1: SIGN-UP
After signing up on this page, you will get an email confirming your sign up. You will also get an email with a diet plan. In that email, you will find great information explaining why you eat the foods you eat and why you need to avoid certain foods. There are forms to fill out, including weight and measurements and short-term and long-term goals.
In this email are some recipes attached and a list of foods you can and can’t eat. Read the whole package and let me know when you want to start, preferably on a Monday. When you start the diet, you have to text me a photo of everything you eat and drink. This diet plan sees an average weight loss of 8.88 lbs in 10 days.
If you are looking to gain weight, it is also a great diet to follow because it is a high nutrient diet. The number one goal you are trying to achieve with food is to get the nutrients your body needs to grow, similar to a plant. You will see an energy increase with this diet and better metabolism. Manipulating the calorie intake is where the weight loss or gain will happen.
#2: ORIENTATION
I will then need you to book in with me. We will have to do an orientation on your first day, consisting of going over your goals and other details about you and coming up with a plan specifically for your needs. We will meet at the training studio for this, and that is also where we will be doing your workouts. I am sorry I don’t have time to travel around to other gyms right now, so please be sure you can make it to the training studio. The training studio is located near 99 street and 80th avenue.
#3: FIRST WORKOUT DAY
On your first workout day, it will mostly be information. I will talk about the warm-up and why you do one. I will show you what exercises to do for a warm-up and then we will go over safety. I take the time to educate my clients on safety because permanent damage to the body can occur. By the end of your first day, you will know how to lift better than most people in the gym.
#4: ADJUST AS WE GO
We will implement and adjust the plan on an ongoing basis. Everyone is different and we all have imbalances that need to be addressed. These imbalances change as we go.
What Our Clients Say
Tendayi is knowledgeable and very friendly. He always has something ready for whatever I say I want to work on that day. He’s great at helping multiple clients at once without taking away from what each person is getting as far as support. I would absolutely recommend booking sessions with Tendayi if you are looking for a trainer.

I started out with TWF with a little bit of knowledge about what to do in the gym, I had been going to the gym daily for months and just wasn’t seeing the results I expected. After an initial session with Travis, he suggested I work with Tendayi. I could tell right away it was a great call. Tendayi has a crazy passion about what he does and knows how to adjust exercises to make the most out of a session. I am a pretty big guy so there are some things I can can’t do, but instead of pushing me to do something I couldn’t do (like so many have before), he adapted it so that i didn’t feel like I was failing. After never liking back day because I never felt the burn after like the rest of my body, he watched what I did and made the smallest adjustment to my form (I mean almost not noticeable to a person watching), the next day felt like I had never worked my back before. If you want someone down to earth, that knows their stuff and cares deeply about their clients success, look no further than Tendayi! You will see results and feel great doing it!

Tendayi is a SUPERSTAR when it comes to personal training. The guy has a masters degree in Kinesiology so he is very knowledgeable with an almost endless variety of new techniques & exercises that I personally haven’t seen before. He is very easy to talk to & he designed a workout program based on my preferences which made a huge difference in my progress. Safety is his top priority so he made sure he taught me new stretching & warm up techniques while we warmed up together before workouts and stretched afterwards. Absolutely recommend.

I have trained with Tendayi for a couple of months so far, some of the things I have noticed during that time is that he takes great care of you and helps you achieve your goals. He is involved, supportive and a good planner. Tendayi’s approach to your fitness is not just him giving you a list of tasks and expecting you to fulfill it, but rather, Tendayi start with a plan of how to go about your fitness journey and he guides you through it step by step in a very involved manner. He is well versed in all aspect of your body and makes sure to train all aspects of your body. He is very encouraging and supportive and always tries to keep an upbeat mood to help you stay motivated.

After not working out for a while, I needed some motivation to get back into it. Tendayi was a wonderful motivator! Kind and friendly but didn’t let me slack off. He always said I could do one more rep, and he was right! Definitely recommend.
Thanks!

I was a little nervous signing up for a personal trainer but Tendayi made the sessions a blast, sparking conversations between everyone and always coming in with an incredibly positive attitude. He also went out of his way to assist in teaching me how to work with and around previous work injuries.
I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience and I definitely plan on going back.

For someone like me that has struggled with committing to a healthy lifestyle, I was nervous about working with a personal trainer like Tendayi.
However, his unrelenting support and genuine compassion made for such a rewarding experience that it completely changed my opinion.
His enthusiasm is contagious but sincere, and I promise that his positive attitude will help you reach your goals, whatever they are!

Tendayi is extremely motivating and flexible-what I consider the two most important things when it comes to personal trainers. He knows when to push you and knows how to modify exercises when you need to pull back.Tendayi makes sure your workout technique is correct to avoid injuries and motivates you to finish the challenging workout. He makes working out enjoyable (but you’re still sore the next day!). I really enjoyed how I felt after working with him for 2 months! . I highly recommend him

I intensely disliked working out and had no clue about anything fitness or body related. Working out with Tendayi has changed how I approach my health and exercise.
I received personal training from Tendayi over the course of a few months. He was very patient and answered millions of my beginner questions as they came up. He was very attentive and conscientious of how the session and activity was going for your body – correcting my form as many times as I asked. Each workout was different, yet you could tell the program came from expertise and knowledge on how to best achieve your goals safely and with a strong foundation. I appreciated his explanations for why we were working out a certain way, and I continue to rely on this foundational knowledge. Today, I look forward to working out, and I could not do so without the training and knowledge I received.
Tendayi is an extremely positive and encouraging presence. He shows you you are capable of more than you think you are. I will definitely continue to receive personal training from him when I am in Edmonton. Thank you Tendayi!
