My Story
Move, Nourish, Thrive
My name is Lennon McCarthy, owner of Good Lyfe Wellness. I am a Certified Exercise Physiologist with 10 years of experience working in the fitness/wellness field. I specialize in educating clients on how to live happy, successful, purpose driven lives; emphasizing the importance of developing healthy, sustainable lifestyle behaviors; centered around movement and nourishment.
Over the last decade, I have helped empower hundreds of people to live their best lives and reach their goals. In addition to my fitness/wellness expertise, I have years of leadership experience in a number of fields, and I guarantee that I can help lead you down the path to becoming the best version yourself!
My journey into the field of personal training/wellness has been long and rather unexpected. Always the “fat kid” throughout grade school, middle school, and high school I had no idea about the importance of exercise, healthy eating, and staying active. On the day of my high school graduation I weighed nearly 250 lbs. After high school I attended the University of Northern Colorado, where I did not gain the “freshman 15,” but rather the “freshman 50.” After a couple more years of inactivity, bad diet, and poor lifestyle choices, I ballooned to nearly 360 lbs. I will never forget the day I woke up hating everything about myself; physically disgusted and mentally unhappy; I had an epiphany. Rather than fall deeper into an unhealthy lifestyle, I decided it was time to take back control of my life; it was time to get healthy. I moved to Denver and hired a personal trainer; since then, I have not looked back. Today I weigh 185 lbs and I love life more than ever. Through hard work, self discipline, and motivation, I was able to completely turn my life around. I lost 175 lbs and have kept it off for over a decade. This separates me from most other trainers and wellness professionals. I have experienced, first hand, what it takes to make drastic life changes. This gives me a great deal of empathy for the process and, most importantly, the people.
I embrace the journey and love helping others find and navigate their paths to Health, Happiness, and Success! Here’s to living The Good Lyfe!!!
