Within 6 months he has completely transformed my body. It was by far the fastest results that I have seen in myself compared to other trainers in the past. I love Overall Development’s program for my personal and individual needs. I love Angel’s approach in teaching me to do the exercises correctly in addition to the variety of isometrics and circuit training among others. He has a great personality, knew which program fit my goals best, and is a great motivator. Overall, I’ve gained about 5 inches in muscle and still continue as his client to continue working at it. I feel GREAT about my body! -Tony Odisho, Age 34 Hair Stylist/Owner Chicago, IL I am a physician in a private practice. Fitting exercise into my schedule is quite difficult. Angel has been able to work around my schedule with his flexible hours and tailor my exercise program in order for me to effectively reach my goal. He is very dedicated and sincere with my workout, nutrition, and answers to my nutrition and fitnessquestions. I received one-on-one full-time attention from Angel, which I have not received from any other trainers in the past. I had no clue about the different types of exercises and their benefit before however, I now feel well-educated because of Overall Development. I have had an excellent change in positive weight gain and body fat loss. -Dr. J. Joseph, MD, Age 46 Physician Chicago, IL I started working out at Overall Development in January 2010, weighting 186 lbs. I had tried different methods to lose weight but all of them failed. Instead, Angel is giving me the support, confidence, and a convenient schedule to achieve my goal. Now after three months I have lost 18 pounds, and I’m so excited because this is the closest I’ve gotten to my goal since I had my baby. He puts all his knowledge into my workout, going step by step to appropriately attack each area of my body. When I first started with Angel my parents thought that it was going to end up like all the other stuff I’vetried, but they started noticing the changes. They now support me more than before. Angel has been my only personal trainer, but I can tell you that he is as much into achieving my goal as I am. I can tell he loves what he does and that’s what makes the difference, he doesn’t get tired of it. Now I feel better about myself, I feel stronger and I have the confidence and motivation that I need to continue to improve my body and health. -Ornella Broccolo, Age 21 Student Northlake, IL I’ve been working in the insurance industry for 6 years now and like many other professions, this is a stressful career to have. After an 8 hour day, I really don’t feel like doing much, but having a seat on the couch. Of course, with stress, lack of exercise, & bad eating habits comes weight gain, and this is where Overall Development comes in. I’ve personally known Angel for 17 years now (since grammar school) and when I ran into him a few years back, he spoke to me about his concept for OverallDevelopment. Not just training, but real life results that will help you gain confidence, feel better about yourself, and lead a healthy life. All in all – a new life style. His training methods are far from the norm. They’re intense, creative, and proven to give results. After a year of training with Angel 3-4 times a week,  I have lost 25 pounds, increased muscle mass,  and most importantly have kept the weight off. What I love best is that it stays off even when I take a week off here or there. His flexibility and overall knowledge of your muscles and body is second to none. Before training with Angel, I thought I knew what I was doing after going to the gym for nearly 4 years, but soon found out that I wasn’t being efficient with my methods and I was not targeting the muscle groups I thought I was. Now, I know exactly what to do for each muscle group and am completely confident with my body and what I can achieve with hard work and dedication. It’s like an “off and on” switch – Iturn it on whenever I want to!!! I’ll make it simple…he knows what he’s doing and makes it easy for you to learn due to his body building experience and by just being a people person. His logo says it all …Overall Development. I feel more confident, secure, and lighter on my toes! I hope to always train with Angel, but if at some point I am unable to, I can honestly say what I have learned from a nutritional and exercising standpoint is “priceless.” THANK YOU, Angel! – Adolfo De León , Age 30 Client Services Consultant Chicago, IL Angel is a great personal trainer. He has broad practical knowledge of strength training, nutrition and other aspects of overall fitness. He offers guidance on all aspects of physical fitness while being a great motivator and teammate in the process. I’m a very busy professional who spends long hours at a desk or on the road. I have limited time to workout and difficulty staying motivated. Angel has been a strong influence and his efficient approach leaningtoward shorter but intense sessions works well for busy people. Angel is an effective motivator who gave me great results. All I needed was to bring my desire to reach my goals. Angel helped me get there! I highly recommend Angel to anyone regardless of age, gender or current fitness level. I’ve been working with Angel for 5 or 6 months now and have gained strength and lost over 20 pounds. I’m very pleased with the results and plan to continue training with Angel for at least another 25 pounds. Overall Development’s typical approach is to schedule 3 workouts per week that are fairly short in length but with high intensity. The workouts burn calories and build muscles. Each workout is typically designed to focus on a specific group or groups of muscles to assure proper rest between workouts and thereby maximize muscle growth and injury avoidance. On top of the great workouts, Angel provides great practical advice on diet and other health factors for a total conditioning program. As anaward winning competitive body builder, Angel knows what he’s talking about. All of this is provided in a low key, non-threatening atmosphere in which anyone can feel comfortable with—even beginners. -Martin S., Age 53 Attorney Chicago, IL I earn my living as a Union Bricklayer. As you know construction is an intense and strength consuming career. I view my health and endurance as being part of my job. It’s important that I stay in shape to minimize any injuries that I may sustain at work. Even before I began training with Angel I would frequent the gym. But as the years passed, I wasn’t seeing the results that I strived for, so I decided to explore other options. I ran into Angel and was amazed by his physique. Just a few years earlier we were working out at the same fitness club. I thought to myself, a few years ago we were neck and neck now he completely surpassed me. That’s where I want to be and if he already achieved that goal, I know that he has the potential and knows how toget me there. When I first walked in to Overall Development I had a specific goal,  Abs… I wanted a six pack. When we sat down and discussed what it was going to take to get me there,  I was a surprised. I thought it would just entail adding a few sit-ups to my workout regimen. That was not the case. Angel devised a workout and nutrition plan just for me. Now 20 pounds and 4 months later. I have an 8 pack. Angel is passionate about what he does. Even though training is what pays his bills he doesn’t take on clients just for the money. He told me before we even started my program. If I wasn’t going to take the dieting seriously then I would be wasting his time,  that he would rather train someone who was going to dedicate themselves to following not only the physical but the nutritional aspect of the plan. Now that’s integrity. Every session we have he pushes me to my limits. He knows what is going to take to sculpt my body so I just follow his lead. I’ve always been quite confident inmyself, but now I’m even more inclined to just randomly take my shirt off. -Tyrone Shumate, Age 30 Bricklayer Chicago, IL I am a self-employed contractor and working in the construction business requires me to use my strength and endurance to complete projects with excellence and on time.  My family and friends are my judge in how effective and beneficial Angel is in helping me attain my goal. They have complimented me on the noticeable physical change in my body. I can feel and see my results, especially when I put on shirts and my chest and arms no longer fit. When I first came to angel, I had my doubts. I belong to another gym and heard and experienced all I had to hear and experience from other trainers. Not one took the time out to explain how important form is and what each exercise targets. What I found funny was that if angel said this part of muscle would hurt after my workout, it did. They were positive hurts letting me know that I’m working that muscle. I have never feltmore positive about myself or have been noticeably admired by more women. My energy level has gone through the roof. My clothes fit like a glove and I am not stopping here. I have added one more custom workout with Angel to cater my need. I can’t wait to reach my ultimate goal and have no doubt Overall Development will get me there. I believe in Angel and what he has to offer, but know that you will only achieve your particular goal if you follow his program to the tee. -Jack Mosquera, Age 44 General Contractor Morton Grove, IL I am a Sr. Database Administrator and my day at work is usually sedentary. I have Diabetes Type 1 and quite a few injuries from accidents and working out with prior trainers. With Angel’s assistance I have been able to strengthen and improve my physical ailments (which include shoulders, knees and wrists) and lose about 5% body fat within just 7 months. I like the experience and practice that Overall Development teaches, adheres to and brings to my attentionduring our workouts. I completely appreciate the time taken to show me the correct way to do the exercise to avoid further injuries. If he sees that it hurts an already existing grievance, he rapidly finds an alternative way to work out the same muscle. Now how cool is that? The detailed and customized workout he has for me in addition to the flexible hours keeps me on my toes and makes it easier for me to “want” to continue exercising outside of my sessions with him. It also helps me mind my nutrition once I leave the gym. He can tell just by looking at me if I’ve been eating correctly or not. I now exercise with him 3-4 times a week and have added cardio outside our scheduled training sessions. The personalized program that Angel has developed is educational, logical and most importantly challenging; I quickly understood what I was getting at a great price, and how long it will take to achieve my ultimate goal, losing fat and toning muscle. You rock Angel! -Sunshine, Age 35 Sr.Database Administrator Chicago, IL I am an early retiree after years in management for an insurance company. I hate to exercise and dread going to a health club. Working with Angel is different. He does the program in a way that makes it fun. The sessions are one-on-one with no distractions. Angel knows my physical limitations and doesn’t push me beyond what I can handle. The result… I stand up straighter, losing the flab in my stomach and building muscle in my arms and back that improve my posture and most importantly, even though I hate to exercise, I enjoy working out with Angel so I stay committed to the program. Angel is completely focused on me and my objectives, without distractions, and designs the exercise routines specifically with my goals in mind. Again, I hated exercise and was scared of “girl modified push-ups” when I first started with Overall Development. Now, I do regular push-ups and other exercises that I thought I couldn’t do. With my arthritic knees and bad back, Ididn’t think I could get in shape. I weigh exactly the same as I did when I started, a weight Angel wants me to maintain, however, the weight is redistributing in  a positive aspect. Angel customizes my needs very carefully. He isn’t deterred by my physical limitations. He pushes me, but does not overly exert me. If I say something is too much to handle, he finds an alternative. He works out everyday doing the same exercises that he asks his clients to do, and if it is good enough for him, I’m sure it will work for me. The greatest impact in my life is having started with Angel; I can now stand straighter and have taken several pairs of pants to the tailor for alterations! -Cindy S., Age 55 Retired Chicago, IL
