Pat Papero has played sports his whole life and has always been diligent about working out. It never even occurred to him that he might be too bulked up until he noticed that playing simple recreational sports was leaving him winded and sore. When he finally put his feet on that scale, he was in for a surprise. At 225 pounds, he was far from his optimum weight. It was time to re-think his diet and workout goals.

"I changed my workout program from strictly strength and weight gain, to more of a cardiovascular and muscular endurance program," Pat says. "The first week of dieting wasn't so bad. But the first week of cardio was a lot tougher. BetaStax definitely helped with both. It gave me energy and curbed my appetite without giving me the shakes like the other products I had tried in the past. It helped me achieve my goals of losing weight without sacrificing the muscle I had worked so hard to build."

Pat now tips the scales at 195 and has lost the bulk that was slowing him down, leaving him leaner, healthier, and in a better frame of mind. After working out for his own benefit for more than 10 years, Pat now has bigger plans. "I've decided to keep going with it and continue to make improvements in my overall health and fitness," he says. "At some point I would like to try and compete in a bodybuilding competition and this was a good starting point to get me there. BetaStax is definitely going to play a part in that."
