Have You Ever Wanted To Look like a Stunning Model?
March 31, 2023
Karla Adams is not just a fitness expert; she is a woman with a mission to help people create a lifestyle out of their health and fitness goals. The Karla Adams’ Sports Model Program has helped many clients in their 40s and 50s place in competitions and live life looking like a sport model.
Karla’s Journey As a Fitness Coach
With over 25 years of experience in exercise science, sports nutrition, and custom lifestyle transformations, Karla, of Riverside, California, has built a reputation in the industry all around the world.
Karla’s journey to becoming a fitness expert began at the age of 16, when she first discovered her passion for helping others live healthier lives. Her journey as an athlete led her to a 7:30-minute mile for 13.1 miles half marathon and represented Riverside City in Japan’s Sendai International Half Marathon.
In the mid-2000s, Karla suffered an injury from endurance training, which led her to pivot her focus to the development of a lifestyle transformation program. Within that system, she created the Sports Model Program for members who want to compete, do a photo shoot or just look like it.
In 2020, Karla was featured on the cover of Muscle & Fitness Hers Magazine with a five-page feature that detailed her athletic story and transformation program. The article also introduced her up-and-coming app that will supplement her program with organized recipes, training tips and more.
Her Goal
To improve the statistics, one lifestyle transformation at a time. “The value of having a customized formula for each unique body is priceless in terms of truly mastering one’s own body,” she said. “No matter anyone’s goal or lifestyle, that is really what makes the magic happen.”
Client Experience
“I had many people in their 40s and 50s who were coming in to lose weight and just fit better intheir jeans,” she said. “And the next thing you know, they are participating in and placing in theirfirst competition, doing photo shoots, and having a body they never thought they would have.”-Karla Adams
Sports Model Program
With her expert guidance, the clients in her program were tapping into potential that went well beyond their initial weight loss expectations.
For more than 15 years, she has been helping clients in her transformation to competition program, which is an aspect of the Sports Model Program, as well as compete in their first show, get in the best shape of their lives and create a lifestyle out of it.
Karla’s Sports Model Program is customized to each participant, based on a number of factors including body and fitness needs. The personalization allows the program to be more effective and helps prevent injury during training. “The profiling system really makes the whole program inclusive.
“I feel better, look better, and that spills over into everything else I do“- Glenn Tetley
Karla’s Take
Experiencing the eye-opening personal transformations have become one of Karla’s favorite parts about what she does. She helps people create a lifestyle out of achieving weight loss and building muscle while building confidence in reaching their own goals. For far too long, she said, people have been wasting money on programs and products that don’t work.
No matter what someone’s goal is, or where he or she is starting in his or her journey, there are a wide variety of methods that are geared toward every lifestyle demographic,” Karla said.
“It works for everyone from the busy business professional to endurance athletes, or those looking for a transformation lifestyle and healthy living regimen.”
Summary
“People sometimes struggle to realize their own potential. When they come in and see me and my profile program, and start realizing what their potential is, they get excited. They start achieving goals they never thought possible,” she said. “But when others start hearing about what’s happening with my clients, and they start seeing the transformation they can make in their own lifestyle, they start to believe that the results are possible for them, too.”
