Today, May 20th, finds aboard a large commercial aircraft, heading west…heading home.
I’m returning from a few days observing my good friend, “Dr. Tom” (as I like to call him) on the frontline – fighting the good fight for health and freedom at his highly successful Nutrition Treatment Center practice in Red Bank, NJ.
My bro, Bill (you may know him) and I, met Tom nearly 15 years ago on a fitness cruise Bill was hosting. We’ve been the best of friends and fellow warriors promoting health and strength for nearly 15 years now. How the time does fly… seems like just the other day we were sitting around a dining room table off the coast of St. Thomas telling stories and laughing so hard a few nearly suffocated.
At the time Tom was a passionate, successful chiropractor who was never satisfied with just easing people’s pain. He’s long recognized and shared the importance of nutrition and exercise in total-health. In the last decade he’s continued to pursue his passion for nutrition accumulating more initials (e.g. credentials) after his name than I care to even try and type.
With the opening of his Nutrition Treatment Center some five years back, Tom has transitioned his focus nearly entirely from chiropractic to helping people reach their peak health and fitness visions through the sound, intelligent (and oft times intricate) application of nutrition and exercise. His work in the area covers the spectrum – from professional athletes, high school sport teams, fitness athletes, to the truly challenging cases, those suffering varying degrees of syndrome-X, reluctant fat, low energy, lower moods, and… You name, it he’s seen it and dealt with it – and patient willing conquered it. He’s got a litany of success stories that could have come from the best of the archives of Body for Life – in some cases, even more amazing.
Watching Tom work, the breadth of his knowledge; his amazing ability to apply it; the way he meets people where they are, is nothing short of impressive. It’s like watching the most skilled master craftsman work – it’s shear artistry.
To transform a person who doesn’t exercise; wants nothing to do with dieting; doesn’t know anything about eating right; is suffering from adrenals that wouldn’t support a salamander; a thyroid that’s shriveled like a prune and the brain chemistry of a prison inmate in "solitary" into a confident, fit, energized and healthy person is extraordinary. And I'm talking about a thinner and healthier person and infinitely wiser.
Tom doesn’t simply give people a “map” he gives them the compass, and a map and then requires them to engage their brains. He puts them in the driver’s seat of their life and health. It’s truly an inside-out transformation.
I admit it… Sure, I went to visit one of my best friends and I also went to see how one man is selling more Full Strength out of one office in Red Bank, NJ than I’d expect any 25 top level retailers to do. He’s discovered such startling success with the world’s first performance fast-food – and I had to know how he’s doing.
What I discovered was… first, something that I already knew: That Tom’s exceptional at what he does – he’s a force of energy and life that can wake you up like a Ferrari at full acceleration.
With Full Strength what Tom is having extraordinary success with is simply telling people the honest truth – helping them to see how important nutrition to creating the life they want to live and sharing how the world’s greatest nutrition shake, Full Strength can help them fuel their body’s and mind’s – in minutes. It’s a classic case of the best salesmen are always people who aren’t selling – they’re sharing and helping. Tom’s interest is to help you reach your goals, to be the best you want to be.
Oh yes, one more thing… Tom always shares one of his own Full Strength’s with every new client – a free sample for them to try. Once they’ve tasted how amazing a nutrition shake can taste – and felt the remarkable difference… perhaps all the rest is just window dressing. ;-)
