JILL ORTIZ FITNESS

Do I have to do cardio? 

No (not in the traditional boring treadmill, elliptical, bike sense). Cardio is NOT essential for results. If you love doing traditional forms of cardio, we’ll fit it in. Just know it’s not mandatory.

 

I’ve tried diets which didn’t work, how do I know this will work for me this time?

Traditional diets don’t work because they are restrictive and rely on discipline. With the Mindful Nutrition Basics Method where we will start, no food is “off limits” which means you never feel restricted or feel like you’re even dieting. What we are doing is bypassing the hunger switch so you never feel the symptoms of dieting in the first place. This isn’t traditional dieting which focuses on eating less and hoping our bodies won’t fight back. We are tackling the root cause of fat gain, which is hormones, and seeing weight loss fall in place as a byproduct.

 

Why shouldn’t I just hire a personal trainer locally? (Long answer!)

Great question. Here’s what most trainers won’t tell you. Personal trainers are paid by the hour, which means the more you stay with them, the more they get paid. That’s why a lot of the time, their goal is to keep you dependent on them for as long as possible.

​

Let’s say you pay $100 an hour 3x a week. That’s $300 per week. $1200 a month. And since their goal is to keep you as long as possible, you’d be looking at $3600 to $7200 minimum, with no guarantee you’ll keep the weight off once you stop training with them. So the question is, what are you paying for? You pay for their time, not for the result.

Which is not bad if you want someone to talk and have a good time ... But what are you really after? Do you want a trainer or do you want results? Do you want 90-day training or a transformation? Do you want to be the paycheck for your trainer for as long as possible?

Second, a personal trainer only helps with one slice of the pie: exercise. When we all know that most results come not from 1 hour in the gym, but the other 23 hours of your day. We don’t just do the exercise piece: we work on nutritional, hormones, sleep, mindset, and everything which can impact your long-term results. This is why I stopped the traditional personal training model myself and left the 3 gyms I was employed at.
 

Is there a guarantee?

Yes. The process is guaranteed to get you results.. IF you put in the work. I guarantee that if you do everything I say (i.e. show your adherence to 90%), you will lose at least 5-10lbs during our first 90 days. If that’s not the case, I will refund your full investment and PAY YOU $100 for wasting your time. Unless you only need to lose 5 pounds, then that will be the new standard. Fair?
