Functional Dumbbell Training
Progression
These training methods are very progressive and can be easily learned after you have completed at least 3 months of fundamental training (sometimes sooner!). The fundamental training techniques that I teach are similar to those outlined in the best selling book, Body-for-LIFE by Bill Phillips. This book--200+ self-turning pages of inspiration, motivation and education--is required reading for you to get started.
My functional dumbbell training program has been inspired by Juan Carlos Santana, M.Ed., of Optimum Performance Institute, Boca Raton, Florida. Functional training totally breaks the bonds of traditionalism with a revolutionary concept integrating multi-muscle moves for maximal exercise efficiency.
JC Santana's techniques improve functional performance and are based on cutting edge methodology supported by scientific proof. Although the term "performance enhancement" has traditionally been associated with athletics, this concept includes all aspects of human performance. Performance enhancement includes all of the qualities associated with the complete human experience; from a recovering stroke patient and an elite athlete, the goal remains the same: to improve current levels of performance and achieve their full performance potential.
More and more traditionalist fitness professionals are going to be incorporating this new exciting approach to conditioning into traditional strength and fitness programs. This approach is so incredibly cutting edge in the fitness industry that JC Santana is featured as a key presenter at the World Fitness IDEA Conference!
Although I am not an employee, representative or agent of, or in any way affiliated with, Bill Phillips, Body-for-LIFE or its related entities, I advocate and demonstrate the methods similarly found in the Body-for-LIFE book. Likewise, for JC Santana and the Optimum Performance Institute.

"I have used maybe 10 trainers in my life and she is by far the most knowledgeable..."
Phil Griffith, age 63, Investor, Las Vegas, NV
" If you are serious about your workouts then Debra is for you. She is not some trainer who walks around for 50 minutes with a clip board. She is in there with you. I have used maybe 10 trainers in my life and she is by far the most knowledgeable one I've ever worked with. She knows her profession and understands the science of her programs. A hint: after working those muscles, sign up for the additional stretching at the end. Its like a massage, but better!"
"What I have received from Debra cannot be taken away..."
Steve DeCesare, age 40, self employed, Henderson, NV
"Debra is the standard by which all instructor/trainers are measured. Debra's background, experiences, devotion and ability to have her students produce results are unequaled and everyone in town knows it. The benefits of training with Debra have truly been life changing for me. Through Debra's assisted stretches my body instantly started doing things physically that made my mind open up so I could stay out of my own way mentally and let my body go to levels way beyond what I had hoped for. Service and quality have become almost non-existent these days. What I have received from Debra cannot be taken away and will benefit me for the rest of my life. That is why I recommend to everyone to forget everything you think you know about Yoga & training and try a few sessions with Debra."
"I am impressed with Debra's fitness knowledge..."
Don Pierce, age 57, retired, Henderson, NV
"I am 57 years old and have been active in fitness activities since I was 17. I have been an avid power lifter in my 20's and 30's and became a runner in my late 30's to compliment my weight lifting (I have run 6 marathons as well as many 10K's.) I started exercising with Debra with the twin goals of increased flexibility and learning new lifting exercises, primarily using dumbbells. I am impressed with Debra's fitness knowledge and how effective the workouts are. They help you focus on specific muscles (no cheating here)!"
"With Debra, I have an allotted time and space for my practice..."
Janie Greenspun Gale, Las Vegas, NV
"I have been a yoga aficionado since the 70's. Before Debra Stefan came into my life, my practice consisted mainly of a Yoga Journal videotape that I would play each morning for anywhere from ten to 60 minutes. With Debra, I have an allotted time and space for my practice, which now includes weight training and other forms of exercise compatible with yoga. The results are a more defined routine, a much stronger, well-toned body and a calmer mental state."
"Debra has been patient, caring, and helpful in all ways."
Dorothy Eisenberg, age 74, retired educator, Henderson, NV
"My training with Debra has been wonderful. I started about year ago, knowing nothing except that at my age, 73, I needed to do some weight training and the machines at the gym did not work for me. Debra has been patient, caring, and helpful in all ways. She has not pushed me beyond my abilities, but has made sure that I make progress. I feel much stronger, more able to feel how my body works and confident of my ability to balance, and be stronger. My coordination has been enhanced as well as my stamina. I even have muscles, things I have not see for years. My lessons with her have helped to keep my motions sharper, not get lazy or sloppy, and are very enjoyable. I never leave a class with her without feeling good, physically and mentally. Thank you so much for all your hard work on my behalf."
"...what a difference you have helped to make in my life"
Kimball Davis, age 47, Sales Exec. Las Vegas, NV
"I had to write and tell you what a difference you have helped to make in my life. First off, I probably wouldn't be attempting or even reaching these kinds of goals without your encouragement, education, and interest. I am really glad to be getting my body back in shape. The clothes are no longer straining at the seams, and I just feel better all around. Also, and amazingly, my mind is beginning to engage in more healthy ways. My general point of view is improving. And I have faith in the Body-for-LIFE doctrine because I am seeing results. Sure, I know Bill Philips is in business, but he offers real hope through this program. And my faith is beginning to be restored, that among all of the hucksters out there, there is one genuine guy that keeps it simple, makes the rules clear, and delivers what he promises. Thanks for introducing us!"
"...she taught us the how and why of every exercise..."
Sara and Charlie Myers, ages 52 and 68, Henderson, NV
"My husband and I worked with Debra through the entire 12 week Body-for-LIFE program early in 2000. While we found success with this particular program, we feel it was Debra's training that enabled us to realize that success. We found her to be a knowledgeable professional who could draw on her vast experience to help us achieve our goals. We have always participated in a variety of sports and been competent competitors. But as a couple in the upper age group (52 and 68) we would have been discouraged by the workouts if Debra hadn't been there to design a program aimed at our specific abilities and needs. She not only helped us to stay on track, but she taught us the how and why of every exercise so that we felt involved in our training program and able to maintain a good workout regimen without her constant supervision. We have continued to exercise at the gym at least 4 to 5 times a week on our own. But Debra is always there to offer encouragement and answer questions we may have regarding a new exercise. We are happy to recommend Debra to anyone, at any level of experience, who is considering taking that step toward better health."
"Debra is first-rate...a knowledgeable, dedicated and disciplined trainer."
Brian Thomas, age 41, Toxicologist, Henderson, NV
"Debra is first-rate as an example in what exercise does for the body and for the mind. Her desire for your success encourages you to strive to surpass your expectations. Her strongest feature, for me, is her desire to work out with you and not dish-out advice from the "side-lines" as is common in the industry. I recommend Debra Stefan not just as a " Body-for-LIFE" coach, but for any activity that requires a knowledgeable, dedicated and disciplined trainer."
"Debra helped me to reach my goal.
"K.D., Las Vegas, NV
"This in itself should be enough to persuade anyone to consider tapping into Debra's skills and expertise and to employ her abilities as a personal fitness trainer. After all, isn't that ultimately all that you could want; to reach your goal? Gratefully though, I can tell you more of a story. Besides reaching my initial my objective for healthy weight (fat) loss, increased energy, lean muscle growth, and improved strength, Debra has provided continuing motivational guidance. Thanks to her understanding of the human spirit, and to the delicate balance that she created for me between my will & my desire, I surpassed my primary goal. It has now been nearly a year since I bumped into Debra and was introduced to the Body-for-LIFE approach. She has helped me to improve my diet and exercise habits. Debra presented the information to me in a way that made it easy to understand, easy to commit to, and accomplishable, if that is a word. After having worked with her, I have been able to remain committed to a proper diet and to daily work outs beyond the completion of my training time with Debra. I am also happy to say that I continue to receive motivational support from Debra to this day, even though I am no longer a paying client. I believe that is her personal commitment to my fitness and is an example of dedication that I aspire to. Best of luck to you, and call me when those Oreos are looking just too good to pass up. I'll help you wait for your free day."
"Many thanks to Debra for keeping it fresh, challenging, and motivating..."
Bob & Loren Sweeney, ages 37, Realtors, Henderson, NV
"At the age of 37 with 2 small children, we became inspired by a co-workers success on the Body-for-LIFE program. We had become sedentary and decided to make the life change well before hitting the magic age of 40. Deciding to attack it with full force, we sought a trainer who could guide and inspire us through this program. We found Debra Stefan, who over the past several months has continued to train us in new and fun exercise programs. She was able to design a program that brought results to both of us while still allowing us to work side by side toward a common fitness goal! Loren dropped 2 full dress sizes and Bob's pant size shrank from a 35" to a 32". Muscle mass traded out for fat at a great rate. Many thanks to Debra for keeping it fresh, challenging, and motivating so that we did not lose interest. We are both still very committed, now more than ever to overall fitness and maintaining our Body-for-LIFE!"
"I...no longer have to visit a chiropractor on a regular basis."
Gena Satori, Director of Communications, Las Vegas, NV
"Debra Stefan is a most gifted trainer. I have worked with her over the past 5 months and am delighted with my progress. Having suffered a back injury, I was nervous about working with a personal trainer for fear I might re-injure myself. In actuality, my body has strengthened to such a degree that I am happy to say I'm almost pain-free and no longer have to visit a chiropractor on a regular basis. I highly recommend Debra - she's an excellent trainer and will commit herself 150% to supporting her client's fitness goals."
Angie Bonk, Author and Homemaker, Henderson, NV
"Within 7 weeks I dropped from a size 13/14 to size 7/8. By the end of the 3 months, I was size 5/6"
When I started the Body for Life program. I was wearing size 13/14 jeans. I had always been a size 5/6 except during and after pregnancies, but was able to quickly lose whatever weight I had gained after each of my three children's births. When I married my second husband, I was usually a 5/6 but found my weight rise after combining our families (6 children that we have all the time). My husband travels extensively and so I shouldered the burden of the household duties. I found little time for myself and soon saw the impact on my body and my emotional state. In a year and a half I went from size 5/6 to 13/14. Before discovering Body for Life, I was so depressed and had so little energy that I would often seclude myself in my locked bedroom and sleep or sob. Climbing stairs or picking up my 3 year old took tremendous effort. I didn't want to go out in public, I loathed myself and my life.
The biggest step for me was to actually go into the gym. I was humiliated by my appearance and felt completely out of place. What I found instead was that there were a lot of other imperfect people that even provided support in my effort to re-gain my wholeness. Within two weeks, I saw muscle develop that I had never seen before. Within 7 weeks I dropped from a size 13/14 to size 7/8. By the end of the 3 months, I was size 5/6 and quite confident in a bikini! It's been almost a year. I still weight train and even though I have had 3 cancer surgeries and continue with my busy schedule, I have maintained my goal. I have energy and desire to be in life to such a degree now that I have since taken up Tae kwon do, skiing, roller-blading, hiking, repelling and scuba diving! Debra and Body for Life may not have saved my life, but they saved my quality of life. I don't even know who that person was a year ago that wouldn't go into the gym out of embarrassment and laid in bed all day trying to sleep her life away.
I can't say enough good about the program. I benefited in every aspect of my life from having taken the challenge and braving those first few workouts in the gym!
