TESTIMONIALS
To Whom It May Concern: I have trained with Jerry for many years. The results you get are out of this world. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to working out and eating right. If you follow the program he gives you, you will see results. As with everything if you put your mind to it you can accomplish anything. I do recommend Jerry for the position and I know he will do an outstanding job. Sincerely, Sandi McMurtry _______________________________________________________________________ To whom it may concern, It has been my pleasure to have had Jerry Malina as my personal trainer for almost two years. His knowledge of physical fitness, his attention to detail, and his concern for his clients gave me results beyond my expectations. Jerry does not only provide physical fitness instruction, he crafts each client’s regiment according to their goals, and their physical capabilities. Jerry has a natural ability to motivate a person to achieve their maximum potential. He can extract from them that last bit of energy so necessary for a person to step up to the next level. All the while he keeps the health and safety of the individual as an utmost priority. From his training I had found myself reaching potential I never thought possible. Through nutrition suggestions given by Jerry and through the well regulated routines he put me through I gained more muscle mass and trimmed away many unwanted fat pounds. His training both of the physical and to an extent the mental has provided me the necessary information to continue to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Jerry personal attention to each client makes him or her feel as though they are his top priority. In fact, his training makes that a reality. The time he spends with each client is devoted to their needs and training. I not only saw this in my personal training with him but by observing him with other clients. I would highly recommend Jerry Malina to any person that is looking to gain their full potential from a personal trainer. Jerry takes great pride in his work and the results it produces. I can personally say that Jerry has given me a solid foundation to continue on in my own personal training. Dan McGehee Austin, Texas 78745 _______________________________________________________________________ Dear Jerry, I want to thank you for all the help you were as my Personal Fitness Trainer. While under your direction, I was able to lose weight and tone my body. The one on one training you give is very informational and supportive. The personal menu and training schedule was easy to follow. The nutritional supplements that you advised me to take were a great addition to my weight lose plan. You made losing weight and toning my body fun with your supportive attitude and great personality. I will miss you as you move forward to your next adventure in life. I wish you the best always! Dianne Pedraza _______________________________________________________________________ July 10, 2009 To whom this may concern: My name is Karla Brown and I am writing this letter to give reference to Jerry Malina as an amazing personal trainer and overall terrific person. I met Jerry in 2003 at a hefty weight of 225 lbs wearing a size 16. With the help of Jerry and his team in 6 short months I was able to shed 45 lbs and 20 inches off my frame into a size 10 (the story just gets better). In 2006 weighing in at 156 lbs I competed in my first NPC bodybuilding competition taking first place in women's heavy weight class and taking 3rd place in masters women's class, 11 trophy's later this year in August I will be competing in my 8th bodybuilding competition at the age of 44. Through Jerry's constant offer of support and superb knowledge about diet and training I have not only been able to maintain my weight but improve in overall appearance and muscle development each year. It is with great sorrow that myself and many other see Jerry leave but hope that he is able to enrich many others as he has me. He is unreplaceable and would be a great asset in whatever goals for health and fitness that anyone is in need of. Karla Brown Austin Texas _______________________________________________________________________ June 16, 2009 To whom it may concern: Jerry Malina has worked with me as my personal trainer for several years. I started with him on December 28, 2006. I have been very pleased with the personal training program and constant attention Jerry gives to me as his client while I am using the weights. He sets the pace for the individual client depending on their needs and goals. He is also an encourager to the individual that he is training. I heard about Jerry through my daughter, Sharon, and saw her good results that she had achieved with the program , so that motivated me to try him. Initially I started 1 time a week due to my working schedule and presently I am doing 2 times a week. I think that you would find Jerry an asset to your company. His knowledge has been gained through many years of personal training and his own training. Presently I think I am the oldest person that Jerry is training. I am 66 years old. Sincerely, Lois Hahn _______________________________________________________________________ June 18, 2009 To whom it may concern, I’ve known Jerry Malina for 3 years as a personal trainer, mentor, and a friend. I’ve trained with him for over a year during which time he has taught me the basic principles of how to condition the body as well as the importance of nutrition. His expertise in the field of Body Building is immense. Unlike some trainers, Jerry has an added advantage of years of practical experience as a competitive body-builder. As such, he has the no-nonsense approach to training. His knowledge and variety of exercises enables him to train individuals with different conditioning needs. Additionally, he focuses on the correct form and positioning of the body to achieve ultimate results. Jerry is a multifaceted trainer who can be trusted to deliver results. However, he is also honest and realistic, and, what I’ve always appreciated, he has never compromised his integrity as a trainer for monetary gain. He possesses knowledge of various supplements and creates diet plans for his clients. Many of his clients were professional athletes, body-builders, and show-girls. In many ways, I have been fortunate to have met him, and to have been given the opportunity to learn from him. His experience is evidenced by the many trophies that he has won over the years that he has competed. I highly and with flying colors recommend his expertise. Sincerely, Natalija Kljaic _______________________________________________________________________ Saturday, September 26, 2009 Dear Jerry, I just wanted to take a moment to let you know how much it has meant to me to be your client. I have enjoyed working with you over the past 5 years. You are an incredible coach, and you have certainly helped me achieve goals in my life that I was unable to reach by myself. As a trainer and fitness instructor for over 11 years myself, I firmly believe that we all need a coach to help us reach certain goals. Professional athletes know how to play their respective sports, but they still need coaches to push them harder than they can push themselves. That is exactly why I came to you. I had a goal of getting myself in the best shape of my life and re-entering figure competitions. I competed in my first figure competition in November 2003, where I came in last place. I was not experienced with competition physiques, processes, or conditioning techniques. As a result of my lack of experience, I did not do well in competition. I was proud of the shape I was in, but I was not in competition shape by any stretch of the imagination. After that experience, I was on a mission. I decided to seek out the assistance of a trainer to help me get into the best shape of my life. My goal was to compete in the same show 1 year later and knock the judges’ socks off. I wanted to work with an experienced trainer who was well versed with training competitors and one who personally had competition experience. I found exactly that (and more) in Jerry. I hired a nutritionist to help me with my diet, and he referred me to Jerry Malina to help me with my training. I met Jerry and started training with him on June 21, 2004. Although I was working with a different nutritionist at the time, I decided to end that relationship as we got closer to show time and Jerry also helped me tweak my diet. Jerry made every training session challenging, and I got results FAST. The results didn’t come without hard work, support, and encouragement from Jerry. I actually competed in 3 shows in 2004, the last show being the one that I wanted to really WOW the judges. Well, something interesting happened. Instead of wowing the judges, I actually wowed myself! Jerry helped me shed 30+ pounds to get into competition shape. My placement in figure was average, but that was not important to me. The most important thing to me was to train & diet hard and to get in what I perceived be the best shape of my life. In my eyes, that milestone was reached by that final show in Nov 2004, 5.5 short months after training with Jerry! I continued training with Jerry and decided to compete again in 2006. However, through my competition experiences in 2003 and 2004, I realized that my body type is not made to do well in figure competitions due to its large frame and muscularity. So, I decided to train with Jerry again to compete in female bodybuilding. We trained from July 2006-Nov 2006 to get my figure ready for bodybuilding. BINGO – that was the ticket. I earned my very first trophy and walked away with a first place credential on my resume! I know that all of this was possible only through the help, experience, and support of Jerry Malina. Jerry truly went above and beyond for me and the other competitive clients in his roster. I am very proud to not only call him my trainer, but also to have the honor of calling him my friend. Interestingly enough, life often throws curveballs your way every now and then. My body has been through a traumatic experience over the past 2 years, and it is back at square one – where I started off before I ever began training with Jerry. However, now that I am healing, I have once again turned to the only person I know who can help me get my body back into a well conditioned, athletic state. I’m not as concerned about getting into competition shape, but getting back into a comfortable, athletic, toned shape. I will hit the competition stage again soon, but my focus now is to recondition my body. Jerry is the only person that I TRUST and KNOW can get me to where I want to be. As a professional trainer, Jerry has also mentored me to help me design effective programs and eating plans for my clients to help them produce significant results. I still don’t have as much experience as Jerry, but I do have very happy clients. I credit Jerry with being a phenomenal mentor, in addition to being my personal coach of choice. Jerry, thank you for an incredible 5 years together! I am looking forward to continuing our relationship in the future. In my book, you are hands down the best trainer in the world. Thank you for everything! With love, respect, & appreciation always, Nia Kelley _______________________________________________________________________ To whom this may concern: I have been in this fitness industry for over 25 years and have hired several trainers. Jerry was one of the best very reliable, respectable and knowledgeable. Knowing this it will be very hard for us to see him move out of Texas where he has impacted so many people in Bodybuilding,Fitness and Nutrition. Where ever he is operating you will receive the best service, his personality and willingness to help people succeed is so evident. I could write so much on how great he is but people have written me long recommendation letters in the past and believe me it was just a letter. So this is it, hope you give him the chance to do what he does best and that is "Get Results" he does what he says and follows through. Thank you, Ninette / Maya The Workout Team _______________________________________________________________________ Letter of Recommendation: I am very pleased to recommend Jerry Malina as a personal trainer and bodybuilder advisor. As a former client of Jerry, he has helped me transformed my body from a regular gym guy to an NPC national qualified bodybuilder. With his knowledge in nutrition and weight training I have witness how he changed my physique within weeks after starting training with him. My first experience with him was in 2007, when I was getting ready for my first bodybuilding competition. Jerry helped me drop from an 18% body fat to a 3% in as little as three months. I was so amazed how he knew exactly what kind of diet and weight training I needed to gain lean muscle and loose body fat. Ever since I’ve met Jerry in 2007 I have seen results year by year and every time I reach a fitness goal I never say I did it but except we did it. I strongly recommend Jerry Malina as a personal trainer and great bodybuilder advisor to anyone who is considering in hiring one. Sincerely Ramiro Campuzano Jr.
