How it all started

Elevated Results PT Ed PuluskaThe way this program was designed was through my own personal journey.  It all started in Spokane Washington, during one of the hottest weeks in 30 years.  Marc and I were both in town and met through a mutual athlete we both knew.  At this time I had been through a few rough years after being in an accident and I had found myself in the worst shape of my life.  During this time together we had many conversations about different training ideas and we got to know each other well.  That week I worked out with Marc and by the end of the week, he offered to set me up with a nutritionist.  He then returned to California and I returned to Georgia.

Elevated Results PT Marc GatsonOnce home I was contacted by the nutritionist, to begin the process of building out a nutrition plan.  Marc and I collaborated to build out a fitness plan to help improve my fitness as well as lose weight.  The days we were not doing live training were programmed out for me to follow on my own.  There was constant communication and changes to the programming to help find the desired results.  Roughly 10 weeks into the program I was down 54 pounds, it was at this point I decided to talk with Marc about creating an online program to bring to others to help them reach their fitness goals.  Marc was all in!!  Through all the collaboration, the two of us created a virtual experience to maximize an individual’s results.  In the following months, I would continue to lose weight, losing a total of 90 pounds in 6 months.  As excited and proud I was for my success, what made me even more excited is through this process we had developed a virtual experience that can help others reach their goals!
