PHONE NUMBERS OF CONSENTING CLIENTS AVAILABLE ON REQUEST I have been working with John for 12 weeks and have lost 7% body fat! That is a documented loss.  Other improvements related to participating     in the program are a decreased resting heart rate, increased muscle   mass, (6-7 pounds), and a decreased fat  of about 16 pounds.  My father      died at the age of 48 of a heart attack and that has made me appreciate      the fact that my blood pressure is lower now than the entire time my            personal physician has been my doctor (9 years). When I hired John I wanted not only to lose body fat, but also to improve my general health overall.  John has been the support and                framework for my being able to accomplish that goal. Working with John has been extremely beneficial and fun. He does a lot of teaching and has broadened my knowledge of how my body works     and how to maintain good overall health.  I have found that this program       increases my physical, mental and emotional health. THANKS JOHN! Roberta Goodin, Age 57 I have been a competitive triathlete for 20 years, during which my times remained pretty constant.  I am so glad I hired John.  My times have dramatically improved.  He has also helped me with my small business and  taught me ways to deal with some personal problems. He is really good at helping a person get it together. Sean Matthews I want to express my appreciation for the great work that John Hacker does.  He has been a tremendous support for me during a time when I have had numerous physical challenges. I was morbidly obese all during my childhood and early adulthood. I weighed 120 pounds when I entered first grade and 450 pounds when I graduated from high school. I've had to make big changes in my relationship to food. In the last two years, I have had three major surgeries, a serious fall and have had progression in some chronic health problems. I had watched John with other clients over time and saw that he had a good knowledge base about aging and medical issues and that he cared about what he was doing. It was a smart move on my part, John has been extremely helpful to me during the last two years. I recently gave John three different sets of doctors' orders setting out limitations. He was still able to devise a routine  that allows me to continue rehabilitation safely and slowly. Probably just as important for me is the fact that he works sensitively and intelligently. He is non-judgemental and is able to suggest strategies for keeping the necessary consistency when the going gets tough.  John's enthusiasm for his work, his good humor and his trustworthiness make him just right for this work.
