The Adler Blog

Hello everyone,

We would like to introduce ourselves and our blog to all ShapeUp Club users. The team consists of Scott and myself, Maik. We are both competitive natural bodybuilders in NYC. In real life, Scott is a radiologist, whereas I work as a full time personal trainer, representing my own company, Adler Training.

Scott has been successfully using ShapeUpClub.com services for the past year, while preparing to compete into his first natural bodybuilding show. As Scott’s coach, I designed his workout and nutritional plans, but he had to execute them on his own.

Living the busy NYC life style, even with the best intentions it is extremely easy to lose track of the calorie intake. Studies have shown that most people underestimate their daily caloric intake by as much as 50 %! This is exactly where ShapeUp Club comes in as an easy-to -use mobile application, and the new online integration brings much added benefits.
Last year, it allowed Scott to stay focused and achieve his targets. His weight went from 170 lbs (77kg) to a very, very lean 148 lbs (67kg) at a height of 168 cm.  With a rigorous training schedule and a ShapeUp Club-controlled diet, he ended up winning his class.

Over the next weeks and months, Scott and I will blog about our training, our experience with ShapeUp and how it integrates into our nutrition and training programs, as well as our overall goals.

With each entry, we will try to explain what we are doing, why we do it, and how we change our diets in order to achieve our goals. We will also be adding photos from our workouts, so you can follow our development.
We hope you will enjoy it, and are looking forward to your feedback!

Scott and Maik
