INDIVIDUAL GOLD

Michael, Metcalf Wiant, Copley

Michael Metcalf Wiant is interested in what
motivates you.

Find the time to squeeze in a run, play some
basketball or go for a swim, and Wiant will
help you adapt a training system that fits
your life and your passion, because that’s his
passion.

From setting up morning runs to getting
together a group to train for a triathlon,
Wiant’s main goal is to understand what
motivates you as a person by getting to
know where you want to be and why. Once
he has that staked out, he includes you in his
fitness and faith community, working to connect with you as well as connect you to others of similar interests.

Wiant is not afraid to pursue you when you
beg off fitness, either. Wiant is famous for
taking in friends of friends who need to
make a personal commitment to their fitness. Mixing his motivational skills with
his personal touch, he’ll gladly call you up
to introduce himself and then offer any
help he can give to get you back in shape.
He doesn’t charge for those sessions, and
he isn’t interested in making a dime off of
them. His goal is for everyone to make a
big commitment to his or her health, and
that is his compensation.

He sets high goals — he passed out 120
fliers in his own neighborhood offering to
help train people because he wants to lead
a group of 25 in a 2009 triathlon — and he
follows through on a daily basis.

He even helps those who can’t find the
time to regularly exercise with his group,
offering tips on to keep physical movement
high on the priority list. So the next time
you have doubts about your own ability to
keep to a workout regimen, call Wiant and
let him help you. He won’t just keep on you
to stay healthy; he’ll help create a system
that will improve your livelihood.
