I began going to Jan because of poor body image and general unhappiness. We worked together for nearly six months. Our weekly sessions combined weight training with life coaching. This approach worked well for me because I was able to improve myself physically, mentally and emotionally. training allowed me to reshape my body; but it also improved my emotional well-being and increased my happiness. This gave me greater mental strength to tackle my body image issues. Jan designed a program of life assessment exercises to help me reach this goal. I am grateful to Jan for teaching me how to love my body, take control of my life, and learn how to create my own happiness. I still use many of the techniques and skills she introduced me to on a daily basis. ? Valerie S., Missouri, Biologist
Several months ago I was an out of shape, sluggish "over 60" grandmother, having done nothing about my physical wellness in many years. A friend suggested I see a physical trainer for help and recommended Jan Staab. Jan turned out to be more than just a trainer. She got inside my head and made it as much a mental exercise as a physical. We talked about all the reasons I was in less than good shape and determined how to change that. Jan was a loving influence, always showing concern and encouragement. She changed how I look at myself and how I feel about myself and, though it will be lifetime work, I feel really good about the changes she helped me make. Thanks Jan! ? Tedda B., Illinois, Grandmother

Coaching with Jan was extremely valuable because it allowed me to re-visit behaviors, habits and address relapsed behavior when necessary...and believe me it is necessary. In my thirteen months with Jan, I learned a lot. I have not gained any weight since I stopped seeing Jan. I definitely live a more physically oriented life and my bad habits are minimized. There is nothing I could say about my experiences with Jan that is negative. I truly felt the experience was life enhancing. Thanks for all you helped me discover about myself. Michael H. Illinois, Dentist
Having been a runner for many years, I have always had great lower body strength. However, I could not say the same for my upper body...or my overall flexibility. I went to Jan specifically to work on these issues. With her help, I doubled my maximum bench press and added 4.5 inches of flexibility to my chronically tight hamstrings without feeling overworked. Jan also helped me improve my mental focus as a runner with powerful visualizations and motivational exercises. During the two years I worked with Jan, I was able to successfully return to running full marathons with strong finishes, far less tiredness in my neck and shoulders...and I even won my first age group awards! – Julia S., Illinois, Marathon Runner
I have been athletic for years, so I went into coaching focused and motivated. Physically, Jan pushed me in to my limits, but never beyond. I never left a work out thinking that I could not go on. In the past I've pushed myself too hard and ended up burnt-out or injured. With Jan I was able to progressively develop myself physically for a long period of time. With her help and guidance I was building myself up physically in an intelligent way. For the first time in years I was able to run without pain because of the work that I had done with Jan.
