Overweight teen drops weight and becomes a Champion!

 Joe setting the California record of 404lbs

"John has helped me achieve things that I never thought were possible, with his help I lost over 60 pounds, set two California state dead-lifting records, one American dead-lifting record, was invited to play on the all California Lacrosse team that was sent to play in Japan, and played Collegiate lacrosse.   What makes John unique is that he genuinely cares about your success, whether it is just to lose 10 pounds or to body build competitively.    John’s diets work, and his workouts produce amazing results, without John’s vast knowledge of nutrition, body-building, his ability to motivate, and his friendship there is no chance that I would be where I am today.  Currently John is training me for another dead-lifting tournament in August where I will hopefully reclaim the national dead-lifting record. "

 2008 Natural Ms Universe

"Training with John is a dream coming true. For many years I have fantasized of getting my body in shape to look like the "girls in the fitness magazines"--I can now say I did that.

The process has been fruitful in so many ways. I am not only in the best shape of my life, my diet is optimal with little need to add supplements.

Our several month journey together has shown me to look at life from different angles. I have, with John's guidance, been able to push past limits, breaking through fears and doubts; creating the dream. 

John went above and beyond what was expected...Thank You John!"

Bored Trainee Wins 2 Natural Titles!

**The postscript to this testimony is that Aaron would train with me for most of the year and then win the medium height classes in both the Forever Natural Mr San Diego and the Forever Natural Mr USA!**

 "I'm 30 y/o and have been lifting for about 15 years now. I started working out just to gain some muscle and for something to do. I never had much direction or help so I neglected my back, legs and diet for years. I made many of the beginner mistakes. I had a hard time gaining weight and plateaued for years.

Eventually I made some changes to my diet and I put on about 25 lbs in two years by eating everything I could (so obviously not all of it was muscle). I also began doing consistent leg and back work and improved my routines altogether.

After another year or so I hit another point of stagnation. I was spending 4 days/6 or so hours a week at the gym. I was fried. I took about 5 months to train martial arts and only lifted once, maybe twice a week.

During my 4th month out I was talking to a trainer named John Heart that I knew from the gym. John told me about a weight lifting approach called HIT and told me about Mike Mentzer/HD...I was also delighted to find out that John is considered an authority on the HIT system.

To cut to the chase, I've been training with John for 8 months now. It's been BRUTAL but I love it! John put me on a clean diet, upping my cals in order to induce maximum muscle growth. Just 6 weeks with John yielded drastic results. Now 8 months into it the results are undeniable. I have some legs for the first time in my life, with thicker more muscular thighs and better shape and cut to my calves. My back has blown up and my arms have grown enough to warrant comments on a number of occasions. And even when I increased my cals I dropped 7 lbs. This helped bring out some abs, as well.

John is a thinking man's trainer, designing effective programs based on years of experience rather than following the crowds and fads of the day. I'm sold on HIT/HD and love lifting again. Great results, more food and 1/3 of the time in the gym. I look forward to every session with John and the fantastic gains that come with it."

John Helps a Trainer Lose 31 lbs. in 5 weeks

"John Heart has the wonderful ability to tap directly into your body’s Metabolism. My name is Angela Brown and I have been a Personal Trainer for almost 10 years (currently the strength & conditioning coach for the WNBA L.A. Sparks) and I am awed by his expertise in the area of Nutrition.  I recently sought out John’s help and advice for the nutritional preparation for a last minute bodybuilding competition. I had 7 weeks to go before the competition, but with John’s help I was right on time.  In 5 weeks I lost 31 lbs and placed second in my first competition.  John majors in the essentials of body transformation with his vast and intricate knowledge of nutrition."

More Feedback & Testimonies!

Robert Chretien - Alberta, CANADA:

 “I can’t say enough good things about what it was like to working with John Heart! He came across as being genuinely excited to be working with me and did a great job personalizing the program for my needs!”

Simone Bianchi - San Marino, ITALY:

 “My wife and I visited Los Angeles on holiday from Italy, and I was especially excited to train with John Heart. I am 38 years old, and I work in the Risk office at a bank, but I am studying to get certified as a personal trainer in Italy. Now, I've brought back first-hand knowledge to Italy and can pass along this knowledge to others here. My experience was priceless!”

Kevin Dye - Australia:

“John is a quality human being bar none! Not only does he know where it's at when it comes to productive exercise, even more importantly, the man is a true humanitarian... a quality so very lacking in today's day and age. The “me...me…ME...” obsession that plagues our society doesn't apply to John in the least. He's honest, sincere, and extremely giving, and that alone makes me feel blessed to be able to call him "friend".

Natural Ms. Universe  - Lala Naidu, Pasadena, CA:

 “John went above and beyond what was expected...Thank You, John!”

Jay K., Los Angeles - Attorney:

 “John has the intelligence, flexibility and sensitivity to communicate in the manner that best fits the person with whom he is training, which can vary greatly, for example, between a teenager and a professional in his 60s. After working with him for several years now, I am happy to report that my time with him remains one of my most important and productive investments in my heath and well-being and with positive results in every aspect of my life.”

Hector Palermo - CANADA:

 “I implemented the recommended exercises with blind faith and trust. In addition, I kept a food diary. In the end, I gained a great deal of strength, and lost 24 lbs of fat - without doing any cardio. I am quite pleased with the results and will continue on.

Thanks, John!”

Wilbur Colasco - Adelaide, AUSTRALIA:

 “I consider myself fortunate for having trained with John…When I visit Los Angeles next time I definitely look forward to training with more sessions.”

 Dan Bennet - Utah;

 "My name is Dan Bennett. I started training with John Heart just before my 42nd birthday. Although I had weight trained many times in the past I had never experienced the rapid and efficient progress that was accomplished with Mr. Heart. From the very beginning I was growing and getting stronger. After a couple of weeks of initiatory workouts, we started in earnest with serious resistance training. John's exacting supervision and regiment was nothing short of flawless. Perfect form was emphasized along with extreme effort to maximize the results of the sessions. Both the positive and negative parts of every lift were timed. Sessions consisted of two or three body parts exercised to failure sometimes with supersets to really blast a muscle group.After four or five days of recovery we worked another part of the body. Once the whole body was worked in this way, we repeated the cycle but with more weight added. The progress was obvious. I could do more leg extensions with more weight. I could perform heavier bench presses. I could dead lift much more with better form etc. Also my ability to do more exercises with less rest increased rapidly. There was never a training session that was just passing time. Everything counted. I could see the results in the mirror. Muscles were reshaping and fat loss was obvious...The whole workout lasted about twelve minutes (on average)....

We regularly measured my progress on each lift. My ability to do fifteen to twenty perfect squats with 275 pounds was nothing I could do when I was much younger. I got to where I was dead lifting 375 pounds six times. My arms got tighter bigger and stronger and my legs got much stronger and defined. I was easily leg pressing nearly 1000 pounds 20 times after blasting them with leg extensions. I am a true believer in this kind of intense, brief and infrequent workout style. It is efficient and exciting. I learned invaluable information working out with John Heart. I'd recommend him to anyone."
