Today we’d like to introduce you to Curtis Ross.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Curtis. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
After graduating from college in 2002, I came back home, and within a year, started experiencing deteriorating health conditions in my joints and my eyes. My body was prematurely ageing due some very poor health habits obtained in college. The doctors began to prescribe me medicines and stated that I’d be on these medicines for the rest of my life. Being the optimist that I am, I believe that my youth and my body were strong enough to overcome such a diagnosis. I started retraining my physical and mental health through understanding the body and how it functions. I changed my way of thinking about food and life and ultimately started the Optimum Performance 21 lifestyle program. My journey of a total body and mind reshaping is the same training and process that I will take my clients through. I’ve recognized that it didn’t take us 90 days to create the mess that we live in, so why should we expect to have a sustainable transformation in such a short period. I train men to transform for the long-haul and to be patient with the process because success is the journey and not the destination.
Has it been a smooth road?
What are and continue to be the struggles are reaching men that truly want to change for the better. The challenge is getting them to see the problem before the problem shows up. Our health care system physically and mentally, is broken. I found this out during my health and healing journey. In sounding the alarm, it’s oftentimes hard to get the men to hear the alarm that they have not experienced for themselves. I’ve been using direct referrals from men that I’ve assisted to get me in front of more men, so I’m literally building and growing one mind, one man, one body at a time. I didn’t start this program for it to be easy. I started this program to help save lives.
Please tell us about Optimum Performance 21.
My company is a personal development company that specializes in getting men to perform at their optimum level in their physical, mental and spiritual health. They concept with optimum performance is to ensure that men can perform with agility, focus and zeal in the marketplace and in their personal lives. My specialty is assisting men in changing the environment of their bodies with the understanding that the body is a mechanism that is capable of healing itself if it consists of the right environment. We do this through blood analysis and food revamping with a relationship to the blood. We also focus on enhancing the respiratory and cardiovascular health of men by combining food and exercise as a part of living and not a “thing-to-do.” I’m very proud of the transformation that I’ve seen in our men from weight to medicinal changes. Optimum Performance 21 is set apart because we focus on getting the body to a state that allows it to heal itself. We avoid the medicine path and focus on a more holistic path while building up the overall esteem of the male-mind in the process.
How do you think the industry will change over the next decade?
I see more men getting involved in their personal health, physically and mentally. More importantly, I’m optimistic that we’ll become more intentional about our health and truly begin to lead our communities and families by being examples of health leadership in the marketplace.
