I am an avid golfer. I recently began to experience some lower back pain while practicing a bit harder than usual. It usually subsided after a few days, but recurred when I tried to play for any length of time and especially if I tried to gain some distance with my shots. Finally, one fateful Sunday, I could not get out of bed without excruciating back pain. Thankfully Geno, with whom I had never worked on training and fitness, learned of my plight, came to our house, and got me up and walking. I told Geno that I would reluctantly put my golfing days behind me if I could get pain-free and if he would work with me to reduce the back pain.

Geno told me that not only was he going to get me pain-free, but that I would be back golfing with no pain. He made both happen: He started with very basic breathing techniques, and we quickly graduated to exercises that were aimed at strengthening my core. Geno makes you want to improve using his positive, can-do attitude. He makes me feel better – both physically and mentally – every time we work together. I am very happy to say that Geno had me pain-free after a very short time, and that after less than 6 months, I was back to playing golf not only with no pain, but with improved ability to use my renewed core strength to help my game. I plan to work with Geno for the rest of my life!
