I have four herniated discs and one bulging disc in my neck along with foraminal stenosis/arthritis which has caused a narrowing of my spinal canal at C5-C6 and virtually the same issue at L4-L5.

I have gained strength and mobility and decreased pain from Nate’s program as well as maintaining a 100lb weight loss over many years. I have no doubt that doing these exercises has played a large role in keeping me from being in a lot more pain than I otherwise would be. I am able to do many activities in my daily life because of my mobility thanks to the strength and flexibility I have built up with Nate. 

I would DEFINITELY recommend Nate and METBurn to others as I have found his program to be nothing but beneficial for me. There is absolutely NO judgement or feelings of insecurity when working out. I have been able to modify exercises to accommodate any “issues” I may be having and still benefit from the program. I find it more fun than machines or “standard” gyms and by far more value for the money.

After lightly “badgering” me for several years to workout with her, my good friend Lisa finally succeeded, but only after I saw her one day and in shock I said, “what happened to your body?”

She always looked fit but something was very different. She was so lean, and I could see more muscle tone—especially in her arms. When she laughed and said she heard of a new gym in Alachua that was promoting a three-week trial special. She gave it a try, was hooked, quit the other gym she’d been going to for several years, and that’s how I heard of Nate and his program.

August 8th, 2012, I went with Lisa as a guest for a free workout. My life, as I knew it, was drastically changed after that workout. I had no idea exercise could be fun. Prior to joining, I belonged to a gym since 1988, but I stopped going as I wasn’t motivated nor did I get much help when I did go.

I immediately signed up for the next training phase, and more than 8 years later, here we are. I’ve never stayed with anything this long. When I started, I was 40 pounds heavier and NEVER felt intimidated or ashamed. We are all there for the same basic reason.

Now the reasons I love METBurn (formerly “UFR”):

Number one, Coach Nate.

I’ve always wanted a personal one-on-one fitness coach, but it’s too expensive. That’s exactly what you get but in a small group setting. Each class, Nate is right there making sure your form is correct and you’re performing at your peak. You will never be forced to do anything you’re not comfortable doing.

Nate is very knowledgeable about weights, kettlebells, nutrition, a stickler about performing all exercises correctly, super funny, family-oriented, and he makes his gym fun to come to.

He just opened a new, pretty, shiny, clean gym, and you’ll never smell anything but clean. The workouts are different each 4-week phase and are customized by Nate.

Everyone does the same exercise but use the weight Nate recommends.

Nate’s focus is strength, number one.

The variety is what makes the workouts fun, and you get results.

My life revolves around my workout schedule.

I am stronger, healthier, have more endurance, energy, and I’m basically a happier person.

I highly recommend Nate and his METBurn program, but you have to do the work. Nothing is easy, and the workouts that Nate puts together will guarantee results. I promise.

As long as you “DO WHAT NATE SAYS,” you’ll be a happy camper. Just do it!!
