I want to thank John for a very warm welcome and also thank him for the honor of posting on JSF for the last 4 years or so. I am truly blessed in that I do something on a daily basis that I have an undying passion for - HELPING PEOPLE GET IN SHAPE! 
However, I must warn you.....Because of my backround as a competitor, I expect (and often times, get) 110% effort from my clients. This effort is ultimately rewarded. John is living proof. To attain the best of anything, it will take effort beyond what you've done in the past. Not only do I wish ultimate results for all my clients, but I wish results above and over what you initially expected. The type of approach necessary is one of focus, dedication on a daily basis, and having fun while doing so.
If you truly wish to turn things around for yourself, or to experience more energy, strength, fat loss, lean mass gains, improved sports performance, and total body recomp.... I can supply the blueprint if you provide the unwavering persistance and dedication.
...It's that simple. 
Thank you all. I am thrilled and honored to be a sponsor on JSF!!

This is great! I'm thinking about it....
Mastover- anybody on this board train with you?? I would just like to see an example of someone you trained.
I don't doubt you whatsoever because pics speak a thousand words, but it's nice to see results in any student you have or may have had.
Thank you
I already sent you an email either way because this is what I need.....

He's helped me with both diet and programs in the past, 440 squat 580 deadlift 360 bench pics in my profile. Thanks M
He has enough knowledge to get you where you want to go, big, lean, big and lean, fit, etc.

Congratulations Mastover, given the results John has seen from your professional coaching I’m sure your services will be a huge success!

WOW...I can't believe that Aram's willing to take on new clients with the the workload he already has. It doesn't get any better than this. Congratulations to John for the major score with this sponsorship...and a huge Thank You to Aram for offering his time and very well known expertise.

This is great news indeed. I owe a personal thanks to Mastover for recognizing a newb in the fitness world and steering me in the right direction from the start. He was kind enough to suggest a workout routine which helped me immensely in getting my fitness goals off the ground. Once again, thank you Mastover!
I do have one question:
If one decides to utilize your services (the 6 month plan, for example), will this include a cutting and bulking phase?

Mastover helped me a lot with my diet for my contest. His knowledge is amazing!
He also helped Merk. He made few interesting changes to his diet... and the results speak for themselves. Merk was able to lose fat and gain muscle (yes, at the same time)- eating like a king

I want to thank EVERYONE who has signed on! And I wish to thank everyone for their ultra kind words. Due to the tremendous response I have been getting I have become swamped.  Since I give everybody individual attention, I am extending an extra week absolutely FREE in case I experience any potential slight delay in responses and getting my programs out in a timely fashion!
Doc, the programs I have include any and every segment necessary for achieving a particular goal. My clients are not subject to just "cutting" or just "bulking". I include the whole she-bang. Whatever it takes. 
Again, I must extend my sincere grattitude to all the feedback. It is purely my honor to work with everyone on JSF!

I'm all signed up for a 2 month program and ready to go!
Aram has been VERY QUICK with emails and even got my program out to me in less than 24 hours! Plus he has answered all my little questions (all 80 of them) in a matter of moments!
I have done SGX in the past with great results but started that about 3 years ago and have yo-yo'd on it (my own fault) and since trying to get back on track I haven't made much for progress so I figured it was time to change programs not because SGX was bad (cause it worked great!!!) but because I felt after 3 years of the same diet and exercise my body and more importantly my mind needed a change!
So I am beginning monday and am extremely excited for this journey. I am planning on blogging about it, I just haven't figured out if I want to blog here (in a journal) or on my own site. But either way I plan on keeping on track! I will let you all know where I am writing!
-Matt
