My Philosophy

Welcome to my webpage www.PhilLizzi.com.  I'm a personal trainer who has turned my passion for training in the gym into a passion for helping others.  Much like an engine builder who tests his products on his own cars first, I've tested many ways to train and eat and found what works and what doesn't. I’ve learned so much along the way by trial and error.  Let me help you at the expense of my own trials.  I have gained a lot of knowledge over the past 20 years and have been certified as a trainer, learning fresh new ways to create programs for you to follow and create a lifestyle you wish to lead.  Much of this intense process involves learning how to create that new mindset you will need to maintain your new lifestyle.  I focus on the mindset as much as on the training plan.  Without that mindset you will fall directly back into the same old habits which have taken years to develop and you now wish to break.  This is much more than someone helping you learn new exercises or how to "workout".  This is a full process involving a radical change in your mind followed by a changes in your body.  Others have helped me along my journey, let me help you along yours.  Contact me today to get started.  Please go to my Fitness Mindset Coaching page to schedule an appointment.

I was discouraged.  I had torn part of my calf muscle.  I had tendonitis in my elbow that hurt every time I lifted.  I had gained belly fat.  I felt out of shape and old.  On a challenge from a friend, I started walking to and from public transportation each day.  Then I started going back to the gym.  I talked to my friends who were physical therapists who gave me some great pointers on lifting and diet.  Within a few months from my humble start, my mantra became “I want the body of a Greek god!”  I went from feeling old and discouraged to being in the best shape of my life!
So why did I share this?

• Are you tired of feeling old and out of shape?
• Do you want to look younger and feel younger?
• Do you want to be able to move easier?
• Are you looking to become more active instead of sitting on the couch and watching movies?

If you are at that point and ready to make a change now is the time.  The time is now, not tomorrow, not next week, NOW!

Read what some clients have said about working with me:

"Hey Phil, I wanted to thank you for all your help and guidance on my workout plan. It has been nearly two years since I started working with you and this is the healthiest I have been in years. You really set me up with a good gym program and you have been a wealth of knowledge regarding diet. So thanks again Phil and have a great day!"

"Thanks for all your help"

"Cutting sugar also motivated me to eat better foods and less, as well as more regular exercise.  Lost 7 pounds since the start."
