“Growing up I was never a big child til I reached my teenage years, at that point I started getting bigger as the years went by. I had tried so many “crash diets”, even tried diet pills and of course none of that worked. My health was not good either, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, arthritis starting in my back, an ulcer, etc… I couldn’t even go up a few steps without being out of breath. So January 2012 came and my husband and I decided to join a gym. I met Kia of Dream Body Fitness there and he gave me a fitness test and WOW was it ever an eye opener for me. I weighed 261lbs and my body fat was at 56%!!!! I was devastated, but also knew that at that moment I had to make a lifestyle change!

Kia introduced me to Pouria also from Dream Body Fitness. I would have 1 hour sessions with Pouria once a week, and he would give me a workout program for the week every week. I also started eating clean, and cut out all the junk food. Six months after, I started bootcamp classes and just kept challenging myself.

It’s now been almost 3 years, and I’ve lost 120lbs and my body fat is down to 23%!!!!

I’m also no longer on any medications for the health issues I had. I learned that there no shortcuts, you have to be ready and willing to work your butt off. It’s a lot of sweat and tears and there were days where I just wanted to give up, but I didn’t. Like anything in life you not only have to work for it, but you’ve gotta want it too. And remember do it for yourself and nobody else!

I cannot thank you enough Kia and Pouria for all the encouragement, and of course all your support.”

As a working Actress / Model there is always that pressure in my industry to look your best and to be ready to take on whateveropportunity comes your way. I had only 3 months to get super toned and look my absolute best for an upcoming role in a feature film and I did not think it would be possible. But Kia proved me otherwise! Training with Kia was the best decision I ever made for my body. He is not only extremely knowledgeable in his field and knows how to work with your body and your specific needs but he’s also very inspiring and has great energy, which makes you wanna go back to him and to keep up the good work. I started seeing amazing results in just a couple of months and I  feel great, healthy and I love my body! Thanks to Dream Body Fitness I couldn’t do it without you!

I was not prepared for the path I was going to embark on once I decided to join a gym. I had created a simple plan to delicately tone and sculpt my body while building some mass. My name is Gela McKie, and I’m a 42-year-old mother of two sons, 21 and 16. I’ve always had a slim and athletic shape with healthy weight fluctuations that made me feel skinny-fat. I was in relatively good physical fitness, but having had children and the effect of aging it wouldn’t hurt to get a ‘body tune-up’.

For the past 10 years, no matter what I ate, I couldn’t seem to get my weight past 127lbs. For the most part I ate healthy, but being blessed with a fast metabolism gave me plenty of room to cheat. I started working out on my own and fell in love with lifting weights. I was going to the gym 5 days a week and the results were showing quickly. A friend on Facebook noticed my transitions and suggested that I try out for the Fitness Star International Model Search Competition. That is how I met master personal trainer Kia Ahadi, who I’ve nicknamed ‘Killa’ because his workouts are killers! Working with him changed my approach and views of fitness. He helped me raise the bar to go hard everytime I hit the gym.
