Avtar Nordine Zouareg is an internationally acclaimed fitness coach, author and speaker with almost three decades of experience in the health and fitness field and an impressive collection of international titles, awards and recognition.
Avtar's own personal history is an inspirational one –and the basis for his teachings. Born a sickly child in the back of a truck with little hope of living to adulthood, Avtar used mental exercises to overcome his body’s limitations, ultimately becoming a champion bodybuilder and earning the titles of Mr. France, Mr. Europe, Mr. World and Mr. Universe, all by the age of 23, making him the youngest athlete to win a Mr. universe title after the famous Governor A old Schwarzenegger. Today he shares his unique mental and fitness secrets with celebrities, business magnates, and soccer moms around the world.
In 1995 he came to the United States as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability and settled in Tucson, Arizona, where Dr.Dharma Singh Khalsa put him in charge of patient fitness at Khalsa International.

From Khalsa International, Avtar moved to the renowned
Miraval Resort, in Tucson Arizona, where he created and lead the fitness team for six years. Since 2005 he has bee Miraval's Professional Fitness Coach, working directly with clients to identify and change the negative patterns that are preventing them from attaining optimum health and fitness.
After the 9/11 attacks on the US, Avtar decided that America would become his adoptive country and became an American Citizen.

Throughout his career, Avtar has worked with thousands of clients including high-profile clients such as
Barbra Streisand, Charlie Sheen, Oprah Winfrey, John and Teresa Heinz Kerry, top athletes, business leaders, and thousands of other people who credit his mind-centered training techniques as the key to weight loss and lasting health.

In addition to his deep understanding of how the mind works to influence the body and his belief in the benefits of balancing body, mind, and spirit, Avtar holds a Master's Degree in Physical Education and several International personal fitness coaching certifications. He teaches his philosophy of Mindful Fitness around the world.

Avtar's personal passions are his family, his spirituality, exercise, reading, cooking, travel, and helping people around the world understand how to incorporate the mental, emotional and psychological sides for creating a successful life in balance.

One of the most common for abandoning a fitness plan is using gym equipment improperly and, therefore, either hurting oneself or failing to see results. For that reason, I strongly recommend that--particularly if you have never used free weights or professional gym equipment before—you hire a competent personal trainer or fitness coach for at least a few weeks to show you the proper form and teach you how to use the equipment safely. In addition, a coach or trainer can help to keep you motivated during that initial period of three to four weeks until your routine becomes automatic.

We humans are intrinsically resistant to change and fearful of the unknown. The anxiety we feel when we begin to change or venture into the unknown is actually our protective mechanism, and it can cause us—at least initially—to misinterpret or fail to recognize what is, in fact, a true core desire.

Making a choice about health and fitness is life transforming only when using the Exact Blueprint. I made a personal commitment to myself that fitness both of the body and mind, nutrition and a good supplementation would be a focal point of my personal life the minute I could no longer take the beating, the humiliation and the bullying I went through for most of my childhood. In one instance, I was put, by twenty of my classmates, under a big gymnastic mat and everyone was jumping on it until I almost died. When the teacher thought I'd had enough, he finally decided to stop them.

When failure arises, how do you react to it? Do you blame yourself or others for your failure? Do you swallow the deal and learn from it, adapt to it and keep moving forward or do you give up and look for an easier way? Most people love to blame others when things don’t go their way and deny any “personal responsibility” even at a great cost. To be responsible for your actions is to accept the consequences or rewards of those actions and therefore acknowledge, accept and let go of all blames and negative feelings if things don’t really go as you’ve planed. Try again, and again!

Teaching your child to skip the sweets and eat right. You have to eat good foods if you expect your child to do the same. As your children grow they’ll develop individual ideas. But remember they are still children. Don’t expect adult table manners from a preschooler. There’s nothing that fills-up a child’s stomach faster tha “knots” from tension and criticism at the table.

A long term exercise program needs scheduling for success; here are a few important points to consider. Does your exercise plan fit you? Think about what kind of person you are, what you like and do not like, how you feel during different times of the day. If you are a night person, maybe exercising after will help to relieve stress from your job. If you are an early riser, perhaps exercise will help you to get a good start on your day. Does the plan fit your family and friends?

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Avtar Zouareg

Weight loss and wellness are hot topics of health news in America. There's a lot of information out there on how to get in shape and be healthy – but what experts have ignored is the deeper motivation necessary to live a healthy life. My teachings will give you a plan that involves more than just diet and exercise. It will empower you to take control of your health once and for all. Everyone must prepare mentally before embarking on a workout program or a diet plan. I will help you identify the enduring inner motivation that will keep you working toward and achieving your goals.

I know that it can be overwhelming and sometimes discouraging. Like you, I've read many books, listened to CDs, gone to transformational seminars and so on. But I've also spent decades in studying and researching why people knew what they knew but failed to do it. As a result of applying what I've learned in my studies, and through my own experience in working with hundreds of thousands of people, I am convinced that we are entering a new era of understanding how powerful is our mind and how it can actually transform us in way never imagined before. We are moving from motivation, to inspiration. The emphasis is on acting upon our feelings, because without that, even the best information in the world is a waste of time.

My focus here will be to help you take the right action. Part of that will involve showing you how to rewire your brain for success, tapping into nature's intelligence, learning the secrets of champions and bringing out the genius within you so you can live a Life In Balance. It is absolutely possible to change your reality, but you must take action. As Byron Katie says it so eloquently, the mind asks questions and the heart has the answers.

Other highlights

Nordine's Telephone & Skype Wellness Coaching is invaluable as a means of keeping people accountable...

Over 60% of people who join a health club cancel their membership in less than three weeks, therefore failing their aspirations of attending regularly and getting fit. It's not too difficult to keep this commitment at first, but predictably it becomes easier to find excuses to not go, especially when no one is checking up on you.

Accountability is essential!

With a Telephone or Skype Wellness Coaching Package, you will become accountable to Nordine and, more importantly, to yourself. If you fully commit yourself to the program, Nordine personally guarantees your success!

When most clients begin their Telephone Fitness Coaching, they are:

  • Stressed, overweight & depressed
  • They crave acceptance from others, rather than from themselves
  • Their determination is focused on outward rewards, not on what they truly desire
  • Worst of all, their discipline to change is short-lived

After Nordine's Telephone & Skype Wellness Coaching clients soon find that they:

  • Have gained muscle tone & lost fat
  • Have lowered their stress levels
  • Have a new sense of self-approval and self-acceptance
  • Have permanent willpower to continue their healthy fitness lifestyle
  • Have accomplished more than they ever dreamed of!
