Coppell Fitness Trainer Helps Local Realtor Lose 35 Pounds and Transform Her Life

When Robin McCoy joined Get You In Shape one year ago, she was feeling stuck.
Back in 2004–2005, she had lost an incredible 110 pounds and swore she’d never gain it back. But life happened, and before she knew it, she had regained 40 pounds, was back over 200, and living a mostly sedentary lifestyle.

Her self-esteem was low, and nothing she tried seemed to work.

That’s when she decided to try something different.

Finding the Right Fit

Robin saw our program and thought, “I’ve tried everything else—this has to be better.”

Her first week wasn’t easy.
“Everything hurt—from my hair to my toenails,” she said. “I didn’t realize how far gone my strength and endurance were.”

But with a trainer who met her exactly where she was, Robin quickly realized she wasn’t alone. The supportive, welcoming atmosphere kept her coming back—even on cold mornings at 5:30 AM.

The Secret: Consistency, Variety, and Community

Robin combined our boot camp with Cardio Club, building a consistent routine and dramatically improving her endurance and breathing.

Key elements that made the difference for her:

  • Accountability through challenges that kept her aware of nutrition and habits.

  • Friendships and support from trainers and fellow clients who notice when you’re gone.

  • Variety in workouts so it never got boring—no more staring at the clock on an elliptical.

The Results

In just one year, Robin:
✅ Lost 35 pounds and 10 inches overall
✅ Gained strength, endurance, and confidence
✅ Dropped under 200 pounds again—fitting into clothes that used to be tight
✅ Became calmer, happier, and more positive each day

And perhaps the biggest shift?
Robin stopped obsessing over the scale and started focusing on how she felt and what her body could do.

A New Mindset

“I crave the workout now—it comes first,” Robin said. “I see possibilities, not limitations. I’ve met friends I never would have met otherwise, and I have a connection to Coppell I didn’t have before.”

She’s even planning to walk 100 kilometers across northern Spain in 2018—something she wouldn’t have imagined before joining the program.

Robin’s Advice

If you’re feeling stuck and nothing you’ve tried has worked, don’t give up.
Find a program with accountability, variety, and a community that believes in you—because when you combine those elements, transformation happens.

How Michael Lost 33 Pounds in Just 12 Weeks – A Life-Changing Transformation

At Get You In Shape, we love celebrating the incredible transformations of our clients. Today, we’re shining a spotlight on Michael Hoffman, a speaker and culture expert who took control of his health and achieved remarkable results in just 12 weeks.

The Turning Point: A Wake-Up Call

Michael had always been known as the “big guy.” At 6’2” and nearly 300 pounds, he had struggled with his weight for years, experiencing the ups and downs of various diets and fitness attempts. However, what truly struck him was an offhand comment at a speaking event. As he overheard a conversation about himself, one person identified him as “the big sweaty guy.” That moment broke his heart.

Still, even that wasn’t enough to get him to make a change—until he received a more serious wake-up call. After visiting his doctor, Michael was diagnosed with prostate cancer. While it wasn’t an aggressive form, his doctor made it clear: his weight made him a health risk, especially when considering surgery.

With that in mind, Michael asked for three months—three months to take control of his health and see if he could make a difference. That very weekend, he attended a men’s retreat where he heard Coach Brad share his testimony. Something about Brad’s message stood out—it wasn’t just about losing weight; it was about total health: mind, body, and spirit.

Michael knew this was his answer.

Taking the First Step

Michael reached out to Get You In Shape and joined the program. He had tried multiple diets before but had never been given the full picture. What he needed was education, accountability, and a sustainable plan.

“When we talked, Coach Brad really listened,” Michael recalls. “In the past, I’d lose weight but never understood why it came back. I wanted a lifestyle change, not just another diet.”

The Plan That Worked

Michael embraced the Get You In Shape Method, which provided:

  • structured eating plan that made sense for his lifestyle

  • Resistance training to preserve muscle while losing fat

  • Community support to keep him motivated

  • Education on nutrition, fasting, and metabolism

  • Daily coaching and accountability to keep him on track

The gradual approach made all the difference. He learned how to plan his meals, optimize his fasting windows, and build sustainable habits. One of the most impactful tools was the 3-2-1 Method

The Results: 33 Pounds Gone, A New Life Gained

In just 12 weeks, Michael lost 33 pounds. More importantly, he gained energy, confidence, and a new perspective on health.

“I used to struggle to keep up with my grandkids. Now, I’m back to being the ‘gorilla’ they love to wrestle with,” Michael says with a smile.

Even more exciting? His doctor was amazed at his progress and the impact it had on his overall health. His risk factors improved, giving him better options for managing his cancer diagnosis.

A Message for Others

Michael’s journey is a testament to the power of commitment, education, and the right support system.

“If you’re thinking about making a change, stop waiting. Get a plan, get accountability, and take that first step. It’s not just about weight loss—it’s about taking control of your health for life.”
