ROCK HARD

Hello! My name is Isabeau. I'm sure some of you are here because you saw me on Season 4 of NBC's "The Biggest Loser", and some of you have probably never heard of me! Well, here is my story.

 

I was the kid that could never run a mile or do pull ups in gym class. Forever the girl "with the pretty face", I tried my whole life to love exercising, to get motivated to "change" but the truth is, I never could find a program that would stick. When the opportunity to appear on "The Biggest Loser" presented itself in 2007, I was 300 pounds, in my early 20s, and felt completely stuck. I didn't know what my purpose was in life, and I felt I had absolutely nothing to lose, and everything to gain by taking a chance and weighing in in front of America.

 

Change I did. Blessed to be on the first ever BLACK TEAM with Jillian Michaels, together with my teammates, I lost my weight- and along with it, my self-doubt, my inner critic and my feeling of unworthiness. With Jillian's help, I became a fit, athletic woman which in turn, made me stronger (mentally and physically), wiser, AND gave me my long-lost purpose in life: To give to others the opportunity that was given to me.

 

I founded ROCK HARD BODY and SOUL in 2007 after becoming an ISSA certified personal trainer and certified fitness nutrition specialist, focusing primarily on weight loss and management, conditioning, nutrition and life coaching. ROCK HARD BODY and SOUL is a company unlike any other in Middle Tennessee. We cater to the PERSON, not the PURPOSE and approach training from a one-size-fits-none point of view. Our training is "all-inclusive" which means it's completely individualized for your body and your goals. Our concierge services are second to none, and we believe when you hire us, you are hiring us as your coach 24/7, not just for the one hour session you've paid for. 

 

My training philosophy is very much "an iron first in a velvet glove". Though I will push you beyond your limits to help you grow and recognize your strength, I will support you compassionately 100%. I am truly a different trainer for all of my clients- Some need a strict, unwavering, shouting trainer to motivate them- and that's what I'll do. Others need a shoulder to cry on, and someone to understand the pain and sacrifice that comes along with ALL change. I do that, too. I am honored to be included in my clients' lives, and always strive to ensure they are happy, fulfilled and challenged. It's my promise to them, and I keep it EVERY time.
