Optivita Nutrition: Home pointer

I was born and raised in Lithuania living with my parents and older brother. I learned how to work hard from my father who I always helped out in his auto body shop. I worked with him and realized that this is not the life that I wanted for myself. As a child watching Arnold Schwarzenegger in the movies, made me be fascinated with the idea of becoming a bodybuilder.
At 14 years old I was introduced to “the gym”, which I made in my attic above the garage. At age 18, I started going to a real gym, which now I would call “my home”. At age 19, I entered my first bodybuilding contest, the Lithuanian Championships in which I took 5th place. From there on out, I knew that this was something I wanted to do.

I was always a strong guy, so I also decided to compete in power lifting. At the age of twenty I entered a bench press contest, in which I benched 405 lbs.

When I turned 21 I had the opportunity to come to the States and I took it. I came to Connecticut, where I continued to work out. I took a brake from competing, so I could build a better physique.

In 2005, I started to compete in Strongman competitions in New England. Things were going well, however in end of 2006 I decided this is not want I want to do, and I went back to bodybuilding, my true passion. In my first shows I got qualified for the nationals. However, I could not go compete on a national level because I was not a US citizen. I lived in Connecticut until November 2008, and then my wife and I moved to Las Vegas, NV, where we currently live.

The USA Bodybuilding Championships in 2008 was my first time on a national level stage, were I finished 7th from 28 guys in the super heavy weight division. In 5 weeks I decided to do the North Americans in Ohio and I placed 6th. Competing in these shows was a good experience. In 2009, I came back to the USA’s and placed 3rd. The same year at the NPC Nationals was runner up. Finally in October 2010 I achieved my goal in bodybuilding: became IFBB PRO.

What's Optivita Nutrition?

Optivita Nutrition is not your typical diet center, nor are we a collection of personal trainers. We are a group of certified nutritionists and educators that provide personalized nutrition, resistance training, cardiovascular, and supplement programs.
This day and age there are many "lose weight quick" programs out there that simply just don't work. Programs like the HCG diet, Atkins, and Jenny Craig just don't work because they don't help you to lose weight for life. True weight loss comes from lifestyle changes and not just the fat loss diet itself. Let's face it, if your current exercise and eating habits made you overweight and unhealthy in the first place, no simple diet or supplement will make you healthy again.
First you have to fix the problem then the rest can come into play. The best nutritional advice always suggests that you eat for health and not just for weight loss. Plus, you have to enjoy the foods you are eating in order to make it a permanent part of your life. So give us a call today and see if our program is right for you, we are half the price of a personal trainer and do 10 times the work.
We even offer a 100% weight loss guarantee! Our first time consultations are always free and we also offer free educational seminars. There are no other diet centers in Las Vegas that offer such a complete program. Remember, "Give a man a fish and he will eat, teach him to fish and he will eat for live". That same saying holds true in regards to health. Education is the key to your fitness goals.
Aside from nutrition and exercise programs, Optivita Nutrition also offers many other services. At our supplement store we have the cheapest prices in town for your discount supplement needs.
We also offer bulk supplements such as our 1 kg supplement packages. We all have deficiencies in our diet and supplements are a key part to a healthy diet. In our nutrition store you will receive free nutritional advice to make sure you only buy what you need and don't waste your money on products that are not required.
Another service we provide is organic food delivery for those of you who are too busy to cook or would simply like to have personalized meals made for you and delivered to your home. It's like having your own personal chef! For more information about any of these services please call Michael Konowalski today for more information at (702) 277-2702.
