simply stronger

• I have struggled with declining bone density for many years, probably due to cancer treatments in the past. After stopping my osteoporosis medication because I had been on it for too long, my next Dexa scan showed progressive bone loss. I have always been active and was working out regularly at the gym but that didn't seem to help. My doctor then recommended I either try a different osteoporosis medication or get some help with strength and resistance exercises. I chose exercise and she referred me to Simply Stronger.
  
  Debi has consulted and worked with me in order to equip me with a large variety of exercises to help strengthen my bones. I now do them on a daily basis right at home. My recent Dexa scan showed that my bones have stabilized! I am so happy and so thankful to Debi for giving me the help I needed. Not only are my bones better, but I am noticeably stronger and look great too!
  
  Thank you Debi!!

• Debi, 
  
  Just a simple thank-you for teaching me to be simply stronger. Yoga has given me much of my strength back and I hope to get even stronger. 
  
  ... your support and enthusiasm is appreciated. 
  
  You're the best!! 
  
  fondly,

• I enrolled in Debi McKibben's exercise and nutrition 12 week course at Simply Stronger on January 16, 2002.  At Christmas my granddaughter wanted to play on the floor with me and I experienced great trouble getting down and could only get up by crawling to the nearest sofa and clambering up! I vowed to get in shape. Overweight, I had begun to weigh my food and cut down on fats, although I still ate chocolate Hershey's Kisses once a week! I hadn't lost any weight, but hadn't gained any since Christmas. 
  
  After discussing my needs and goals with Debi, I believed the 12 week course would put me on the right road for healthy eating as well as settling me into a routine of strengthening exercises. How right I was! I have lost 15 pounds and 11 inches and have lowered my body fat by 3 percent, and I know that I?m going to continue getting stronger and healthier with the help of Simply Stronger. 
  
  Debi is supportive and encouraging and unfailingly positive. I am amazed by the exercises that I can do now; I always used 3 pound weights Debi's lowest weights were 5 pounds; I now use 8 pound weights. We use medicineballs, bands, skippingropes, resist-a-balls and more. I can get up and down with ease and feel much more confident in myself. 
  
  Debi chose a perfect name for her company. Simply Stronger is exactly what we become at Simply Stronger.
