"How many of you see the same people regularly and notice that they either look the same or perhaps even look worse over a long period of time? Furthermore, what is the status of their health due to their lifestyle? High blood pressure, overweight, poor cardiovascular shape or the many other health problems that exist today because we don not take care of ourselves. I thought I was in pretty good shape before I saw Tad...boy was I wrong. I probably fit into the aforementioned category. My body fat was at 18.5% and my blood pressure was marginally high. I even had to be put on blood pressure medicine. I first saw Tad in March 06...thanks to the urging of Rocky. I saw firsthand with Rocky what type of amazing changes Tad could influence on his body. After three months of working with Tad I had my body fat down to 7%. In addition, my blood pressure now is considered on the lower side of average (also, I no longer need the blood pressure Meds). Tad has now started me on the muscle-building phase and in just three short weeks I have put on 12 pounds of lean body weight. He is awesome to work with...always available...always willing to listen. I have just begun this newfound lifestyle and I am really enjoying it. One main benefit of this program is that I always feel great! No more headaches, stomach aches or lack of energy. I really believe I feel this way due to Tad's guidance. A great big thanks to Tad! The sky is the limit here and I will work with Tad to get to my ultimate goals. I also wanted to thank Chris (also a "Tadster") for being there and pushing me to the limit! Way to go Chris!

Jim Blancet

"I have been with lots of trainers over the past few years, including IFBB Pro bodybuilders, and nobody has changed my lifestyle and body shape like Tad. He took me from a fat 210 lbs at 18.3% body fat, to an everyday weig*ht of 194 lbs at 4.8% body fat!! Tad has taken me to levels of fitness and bodybuilding that have no limits."

Rocky Nehk

On September 26. 2005 I made a decision that has changed my life, I hired "the Tadster" to be my diet coach. I was tipping the scales at a whopping 264 lbs, with 46" waist. I tried all sorts of diets and nothing would work, thanks to Tad all of that changed. I have lost 56lbs and I now have a 38waist, my body fat has dropped from 23.6% to 13.5%, my blood pressure and cholesterol have dropped so much that my doctor can't even believe it. I am also proud to say that I can wear my wedding ring for the first time in 9 years, all of that with just diet and exercise. One of the things I enjoy about working with Tad is our meeting once a week to talk about what is going on and how you feel, in addition to that he is just a phone call away if needed. I also feel Tad treats me as an individual, he does not give you some boilerplate diet he truly works with you and your body. I also enjoy the support I have in "Team Tadster"

Joe Kleist

"Tad has provided outstanding diet and training programs for me, both during competition seasons and off-season. Through his programs, I've been the leanest I've ever been-from 14% off-season to 7% during competition. He watches my progress very closely and adjusts my diet and training depending on my own personal progress. Since he also trains me off-season, he understands that Figure competitions are only part of my life and is able to help me achieve balance and motivation."

Shawna Kondo

"I have been competing for years and never had the right combination of diet and workouts to get in the right condition to do well in any show. 2004 and 2005 I came close with a 3rd place and a 4th place in the Emerald Cup and the Washington State. This year got 4th again and got fed up with myself. I contacted Tad online and then talked to him and after 8 weeks tied for 1st place in the Oregon State Bodybuilding show and 2 weeks later because I couldn't settle for a tie Tad got me that 1st place in the Washington State Bodybuilding Championships and a split decision in the overall. I could not have done it without the help and coaching of Tad. I just talked to Tad and we are shooting for the Masters Nationals 2007. Thanks Tad. You're the best!"

Dan Meece (National and Masters NPC Bodybuilding competitor)

" I am a 59 year old woman with a life time of weight challenges. We started working together over two years ago and I have lost 60 lbs and kept it off for 2 years, something that I have never been able to do before. I look forward to the next 2 years and even bigger goals."

Dixie Peterson, 59

"Where do I begin to explain how wonderful "The Tadster" is? As many have said before me, I have worked with several coaches and none have ever given me the personal attention or dedication that Tad does. I can honestly say that I feel sometimes that I am his only client. His knowledge and work ethic can not be matched in this industry. I may have found him b y pure chance but I think I hit the jackpot when I did. I am proud to say that I have not only found an amazing coach, mentor, and drill sergeant in Tad, but most importantly a friend for life."

Emily Schneider, Figure Competitor

"Working with Tad and his program has taught me not only to be structured in my eating habits but also to be structured in my everyday activities. I love the structure and the accountability of having a team to keep in contact with"

Dana Newman, figure competitor

Tad's program has been terrific. By itself "worth the price of admission. I am NEVER HUNGRY and I am EATING BETTER (healthier) than I ever have in my whole life. AND I'm LOSING a few POUNDS per week and about a point of body fat per week. I have lost about 17 pounds so far. Another 17 to go.

I have struggled with my weight my whole life and hive won the struggle only through deprivation and pain. Tad's approach is different and definitely better-eat plenty of the right stuff and the right times. I have not started the aerobic or lifting parts of Tad's program yet-looking forward to those changes for sure!"

Peter Gaynor

" As a 61 year old, disabled man, my weight training and diet were completely out of control. After meeting with Tad, following his instruction, and the carefully constructed diet, I dropped 20lbs and added muscle.

All this may sound normal, but at my age, and with the inability to do cardio it is an amazing transformation. I never suspected that diet could add muscle, even with very limited workouts. As I continue, my eating habits have changed, my workouts are more regular, even if limited, and with continued guidance and encouragement, things are getting better and better. Thanks Tad!"

Mike Johanek, 61

"I recently turned 40 years old. I just didn't know what to eat anymore I felt terrible. I had lost some weight and was gaining it back. I just didn't feel like I was doing the right things. I wanted structure and a plan. So I signed up with Tad on December 12, 2005. Yes I did it threw the holiday! Tad inspired me so much! It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. I started at 23% body fat and my weight was 146 lbs. In my first two weeks I lost 5 lbs. just eating what he told me. Tad always says a word or sentence that keeps me going! Now my body fat is 17.55% and my weight is 134 lbs. I get really exited when my family and friends can see the difference in my appearance and the way I feel about myself. I just want to thank Tad for all the help and support. I couldn't have done it with out him!"

Lisa Nehk

"Hi Tad, just a quick note to say thank you for all you have done for me. You have taken my body and transformed it in ways I never thought were possible. When I came to you in March 2006, I was weighing 150 lbs at 16.6% body fat. Today July 2006, I weigh 135 lbs and I am 11% body fat. A "thank you" doesn't seem like enough to show my gratitude. I am looking forward to getting on stage after a two and half year break. I feel like I have made tremendous improvements in my appreciate all that you do. You are an inspiration to so many people… I can't thank you enough!"

Holly Hill, figure competitor and "Fitness Queen"

"Wow… what an amazing year so far all thanks to "the Tadster". At the end of 2005 I was weighing in at 265 lbs so I started to realize I needed to go to the gym.

Well come March of 2006 I was still 260 lbs. My friend suggested that I go see the Tad. So I figured "what to I have to lose?" I have stuck to my diet fairly well during the week that I can. It seemed I was always going somewhere or doing something that would inhibit my ability to keep on it really well. With Tad realizing that he adjusted my diet accordingly to fit my schedule and gave me just enough cheat meal to keep my life as it was. Now as I am writing this in mid July of 2006, I am 200 lbs even. Not to mention going from 26% body fat down to 13% in that short time. I still have a long ways to go but I know that if I just put my trust in Tad he will take me to where I want to go. Thanks a lot Tad, here we go!"

Chris Rasmussen (www.GotCash.net)

I was completely unable to gain weight or muscle after years of trying. I met Tad at a bodybuilding contest and my initial contact was positive and the decision was made to consult with him. I am 56 years old, with low body fat, but I am a very hard gainer. Working with Tad, I have reduced my waistline, lowered my fat level to below 7 percent, and I am adding muscle week by week. With Tad's expert advise, encouragement and constant monitoring,

I have been able to stick to the diet and make great gains. Tad has been a real inspiration for me to work as hard as I can. With Tad my goals are being met..."

Mark Jett, 56

"I have been on many diets over the years. I'm the mother of a 3 year old. I got to the point where I felt I couldn't even keep up with her. So I hired Tad! This is the first time EVER that I don't feel like I am starving. After the first 2 months under Tad's supervision and lost 20 pounds! TAD'S PROGRAMS WORKS! He knows his stuff! Thanks TAD!
Can't wait to see my results this summer".

Jill Pitts

"I wanted one thing this year, "A Fit Me." I had always been about 105 lbs and for the past 6 years, I couldn't get that body back, but believe it or not, I am on my way. I was looking into Jenny Craig, because if Kirstie Alley could put down the cake, so could I. But I didn't want to sit around trading stories with a bunch of other sad, depressed women, and ignoring the fact that laziness and lack of knowledge of true weight loss was the problem. Also the thought of weighing myself in front of a bunch of strangers every week made me feel unmotivated.

I have tried every diet pill, every workout video, and scamming fitness program the TV can sell me, even a gym trainer and nothing worked. I just wanted to get started!! Late October of 2005 I found Tad and I saw some of the people he had changed. "The Tadster" honestly helped me change my life, my body and my self-esteem. After 5 minutes of talking to him, I know Tad's program was for me. He has taught me about proper diet, portions and exercise, and now a little over ONLY 4 months later and 33 lbs lighter I am looking at me again. I am wearing a size 6 not a large 14 anymore. It is nice to look in the closet and not struggle to find something to cover up, but something to compliment me now.
I have private, individual sessions all pertaining to me and my body. Not the same cookie-cutter program other trainers give. He has become a mentor, and a friend and I thank Tad for that and for helping me to a "Fit Me." Plus his so big I would be afraid to cheat on my diet anyway :) !"

Traillan Suthers

"I have known Tad for a while now online and we both share a passion for Bodybuilding, and I was honored when he agreed to help me prepare for my first competition. This was going to be a daunting task as I didn't know just if I would be good enough to step on stage, but Tad gave me the self-confidence to just believe that I could do it. Tad compiled such an easy to follow diet and training plan, he covered everything I needed to know.

Tad followed me every step of the way, and monitored my progress weekly, which is no mean feat considering we are over 5,000 miles apart and 8 hours time difference, but that's the beauty of the internet. Tad's expertise and experienced eye knew what changes were needed to be made by my photos alone (WOW!)

I dieted for 14 weeks under Tad's guidance, and recently competed and came 2nd in my class, and qualified for National Finals

If you are considering a Diet Coach and you are still in 2 minds...don't be, I promise you won't regret it."

Chris Morrison (2nd Place Mr. Anglia Championships)

"When my brother, Tad first started helping me rethink my diet and lifestyle, I was 149 lbs. At around 11% body fat (at 5'8"). I was looking to stay in shape, improve my body composition, and control my energy levels (so that I wouldn't experience that dead feeling in the middle of my day). Within six months, my body fat had dropped noticeably, my energy levels were regulated (no more sleepy periods in the afternoons), and saw gains in muscle mass. After just a little over a year, I was at 5.6% body fat, where I've stayed since, and tipped the scales at just about 170 lbs. I've always worked out, but Tad's carefully crafted diet and lifestyle changes, catered specifically for me and my needs, allowed me to make impressive gains and understand tm body better.

Because I knew the depth in his program and the results he initially suggested I might achieve. And he was right at every turn. When it comes to dieting, exercise, nutrition, and understanding how the body and its systems work, I trust Tad completely."

Asao Inoue

"All my life, I have been a fan of bodybuilding. From the early days of watching 'Pumping Iron' and the Conan movies, I have been fascinated by the sport. I had always lifted weights through my high school years and throughout college to enhance my athletic endeavors, but I never considered myself a 'bodybuilder'. However, through the encouragement of some friends at the gym, this last summer at age 36, I made the commitment to finally compete. I felt I had the size to be competitive, but always having been a 'chunky' person, never in my wildest dreams did I think that I would be able to get into the condition necessary to find success under the bright lights.

Thankfully, my paths crossed with Tad Inoue. I contacted Tad and he agreed to help me through my contest prep. With only 11 weeks to work with, my expectations weren't that high, however, Tad was constantly that positive voice that kept me motivated to succeed. By the time for the show came around, through endless conversations, exchanged emails, and updated pictures, we had done everything in our power to get me ready. By the time all the tanning was applied and that last bit of posing oil spread on, I was amazed at how I had transformed and the level of conditioning that I was able to achieve. I say what I was able to achieve, but I know for a fact that I would never had reached the level I did without Tad's guidance and positive encouragement. When the smoke finally cleared, I was left standing holding the Novice Overall trophy in my hands.

Heading off the stage, I couldn't wait to call Tad and tell him what we had accomplished. Thanks to his help, I was able to climb to heights I would have never believed were attainable and finally become a 'bodybuilder'!"

Kevin Madison

"Back in June, my wife Kim singed up with Tad to lose some weight. The next thing I know I am in Tads office and being singed up for one year of wonderful guidance. I started out at 240 lbs and about 23% BODY FAT (that is about 55 lbs of pure gross fat). Fast forward four months and I had lost 50 lbs. That put me at 190lbs and 9% BODY FAT (that is only 17lbs of insulation!). I have been maintaining that 9% for the last few months. Tad has taught me so much. If I could share one thing with perspective clients it would be that you only get out of it what you put into it. Know matter how much Tad would like you to succeed, if you don't put forth the effort you will not get the results you are looking for. I took the mind set to never show up for my weekly meeting without some progress toward my goal. Every week I had lost, even if it was only a lb. Next thing you know I am in the best shape of my life! Thank you Tad for all the help you have given me. You are a wealth of KNOWLEDGE, and a great motivator."

Tony Pollak

"I had heard from Rock and Joe that they had hired Tad for their weight loss. I waited for a year to see if it really worked. Once I saw their awesome results I decided it was time. In June of 2006 I went to see Tad because I was sick and tired of being fat. When Tad pinched my fat he told me I was at 26% body fat. I was embarrassed that I had gotten that big. By October I had lost 25 lbs and was around 15% body fat. I thought I would take a break from the plan. I veered off track a little over November and December. I thought I was doing okay since I only put about 3 lbs back on. I kept going to my appointments even though I knew I didn't change. I did feel like I was going to the principles office at my appointments. Tad always gave me his advise, I listened but didn't change what I was doing. In January I decided it was time to go back on the plan. I know that this is a life style change and I feel better eating the right way. Now that I'm back on track and losing weight I'm excited to go to my appointment. No more principles office for me! I'm close to my goal weight, summer here we come!!!!

Tad, thank you for all of your help, you're not just a diet coach, you're so much more!!!

Kim Pollak

"I have always been into lifting weights and nutrition since High School. One day I found myself getting married, moving into a new home, and basically scrounging for motivation to go to the gym. I had let myself slack by making excuses for myself to not go to the gym today or eat well.

I decided to look around for a nutritionist, somebody who could lead me in the right direction. I found Tad Inoue. Wow was I lucky! Tad is a great guy who really cared about my progress. He has taken in my short time with him places I never thought I could achieve as fast as I have. I remember my first month there I had lost 10 lbs of fat and GAINED about 8lbs. of muscle. When I started my body fat was at 21.5% and now it's been on its way down, and I am currently at 10.8%!
It's not that I didn't know to go workout or eat this and that. It's just with Tad there is a lot I didn't know and he has always been there to motivate, teach, and be a friend as well."

Trey Henderson, 28

"In July 2006 I set a goal for myself. Run a marathon before I was saddled in a rocking chair with old age. For someone who has only done occasional running doing 5k's, 10k's and a couple of 1/2 marathons for only about a year - it was a huge goal to set. All I can say is that, "I completed the race and I was not the last one at the finish line." My stepson and girlfriend were at the finish line with smiles and roses. Finishing the race, along with the roses made me feel like a million dollars. During this six-month training for the marathon my weight was over 200 and at the end of the training I was still over 200 lbs. This was very discouraging to me since I felt I should have gone down in weight with all the training I did during that period of time. I felt a great accomplishment and I felt if I can do a marathon I definitely can accomplish a goal with my weight and body fat. It took me 10 grueling long months to put my mind to the task of starting a program to lose the weight and body fat.

Why is it that the 200 lb mark is always a turning point in your life? I am 56 years old women and have been seesawing with my weight back and forth between 189 and 212 since the age of 38 years, way to long. I felt like I had tried everything out there and always went back up. This was the 3rd time I had reached over the 200 mark and I really wanted to put a stop to it and control my life on a daily basis. I have come to realize that I need to take control of all aspects in my life and losing body fat, along with the weight was going to have to be top priority. During my yearly medical checkup I asked my doctor for help. She gave me one of Tad's fliers and stated, "try him-he will help you get results." It took me a month to get up my nerve to call but I bit the bullet and called and we had our 1st meeting on October 19, 2006.

Starting figures after 3 month figures
Lbs 206 193.4
Waist 41 38, 1/2
Hips 46, 1/2 45
Body fat 32.6 25.45

I only had (1) gain during this three-month period of time that I met with Tad. My results so far have been accomplished during 3 months of going thru Thanksgiving, Christmas, helping a neighbor with an estate sale and a 1-week trip to Utah. These obstacles I have gone through have given me the encouragement I need to continue with my weight loss and Body fat loss program. Tad has given me the basics I need to continue and his words of encouragement about "never giving up" will always stay with me. I always want to feel like a million dollars, like I did after my race, and accomplishing my body goal will get me to that point."
