I’d found Dawn on Groupon when trying to find a place to get a facial, and while there were TONS of Groupon deals to choose from, in doing my research I’d seen that she’d been rated #1 on KCRA’s best facial list and decided to try her out… I’ve been with her ever since! She’s absolutely amazing at what she does, she has my skin looking and feeling beautiful, even throughout my pregnancy, which as we all know, can do ridiculous things to your skin!! She’s very honest, very helpful, offers an extremely relaxing environment, and is great to talk with! She’s very knowledgable and while she’ll recommend products when asked, she doesn’t push or pressure you to take home half the product wall (although the products she does have are kind of amazing). I’m very picky and (truthfully) a bit shallow when it comes to my appearance; I love the way she makes my skin look and feel and would recommend her to anyone looking for a great facial in a relaxing environment!
My appointments with Dawn are something I look forward to every couple of months. I know I will always receive a great facial as well as an amazing neck & shoulder massage, but Dawn also takes time to make sure her clients feel comfortable and relaxed ensuring an enjoyable experience during every visit. Dawn is very professional, knowledgeable and passionate about her work. She is genuinely concerned about helping find the right skin care regimen for me and each of her clients. Every facial is always customized and tailored to my skin’s needs. I most commonly visit Esthetics by Dawn for Facials w/ultrasonic microdermabrasion and I am extremely happy with the results. I always leave with amazing feeling skin and Dawn’s advice on how to maintain healthy & radiant looking skin between visits. I have been a client of Dawn’s for quite a few years and highly recommend her services. Soothing music, calming aroma and a friendly face are just a few added bonuses to the wonderful services provided by Dawn. Read Full Testimonial – (XFAT Lite) Client – I was sick of going to the gym and using only the cardio equipment and signing up for boot camp classes. I wanted something with more serious results. After talking to Dawn at XbodyConcepts and seeing her results I knew I wanted to do the XFATLTE program as soon as possible! I knew in order to do this I needed to be focused, set some serious but realistic goals, commit myself to the workouts and mostly stick with following the diet!!! After the first 3 weeks I noticed my body starting to change and seeing that I was gaining lean muscle. I am already starting to see the definition I want. Having the specific meals plan tailored for me of what, how much and when to eat really keeps me on track. I don’t have to think about what to cook. I love it! I prepare all my next day meals the night before so there’s no excuses!!!! It’s hard work!!! Be motivated, dedicated, committed and stay FOCUSED and you will have guaranteed results! Thanks Dawn for all your help, motivation and giving me the courage to get in there and lift those weights!!! Read Full Testimonial – (XFAT Client) – So I felt inclined to write a testimonial about my experience with the XBC workout and nutritional plans… I’m not one to pass my name off on something on a whim, I truly have to believe in the product, which in this case I do. I have gone a long time trying to reach my fitness and body image goals and have struggled for a long time. Fitness has always been a challenge for me. I was into it and wanted to do it, but in a world where attention spans are measured in seconds, if I didn’t see results extremely fast I was disheartened and eventually gave up on the endeavor. Fast forward some time later and again I’m trying to get into shape, not only for the sake of vanity but for my job in law enforcement. Not knowing how to go about radically changing my body, I sought out Dawn at XBODYCONCEPTS and her XFAT program. The results were undeniable and I felt the difference right away. A couple weeks in and I started to see the difference in myself. A few more weeks and other people were seeing the difference in me and the compliments started pouring in. When this happens it fuels your fire and it makes adopting this lifestyle very easy which is what happened to me. Don’t get me wrong there were times I was cursing the high heavens because I was sore, felt sick from being sore, tired, weak, and hated eating. In that struggle, you find what you’re really made of. The question is not if Dawn’s plans work because they do, and they do very well, you will be hard pressed to find anyone more knowledgeable or more accessible than Dawn. She is always available to answer any questions or hear any concerns you may have. The question becomes if you have the constitution and courage to stick it out when it all seems lost and there is no end in sight. All the tools you need are here. The secret is that your results won’t come from a pill, powder, gel, or whatever, they come from dedication and hard work, as they should! Que the motivational posters we have all come to love so dearly! So my results after completion of the XFAT program are as follows: Body fat: 12.6% to 9.2% Weight: 168lbs to 175lbs (lean muscle gains!) I lost body fat and gained muscle at the same time! Plus definition and I can see my abs…. So without any mental reservation I highly recommend Dawn and her XBC programs! I am truly appreciative to Dawn and Chad and all the other XBC members for all their advice and guidance along my journey which is still not yet complete. I will check back in and give you my results after I finish the XBC XLRG program! Read Full Testimonial – (XLRG Hybrid Program) – After previously completing my cut on the XFAT program, I then moved onto the XLRG mass program where I made huge gains and increased my weight from 198 pounds to a high of 250 pounds. My body fat also increased from the low 6% range to about 9%. Dawn advised me upfront that the XLRG program was aimed at all out mass gains and that I would definitely put on muscle mass, but would surely gain some fat along with the muscle. The XLRG program got me better results than I could have ever imagined. After completing the mass building phase I wanted to lean out but maintain as much muscle as possible. Dawn advised a very slow cut aimed at all out muscle preservation. So I started the XLRG Hybrid plan. On the XLRG Hybrid plan I have managed to drop my bodyfat from the 9% range to the high 6% / low 7% range and my weight is currently right at 235 pounds. Mission accomplished Dawn! I feel like this is the leanest and fullest I have ever been and I plan to continue with this plan for as long as the gains keep coming. Much thanks to Dawn and XBodyConcepts for helping me achieve my goals!
Click To View Transformation – (XFAT / XLRG Client) – “I grew up as the original athletic tall skinny kid. I always had trouble putting on weight and had lightning fast metabolism. Through heavy lifting over the past twenty-five years or so and lots of calories, I managed to grow to approximately 223 pounds at about 15% body fat. Fast forward to my being introduced to Dawn and XBodyConcepts. I talked with Dawn at length about my fitness goals and told her I had a phobia of getting skinny again, which is the opposite of most people. Dawn somehow convinced me to give her XFAT program a try. I did not mind leaning out but was petrified of the possibility I might lose muscle mass I had worked so hard to gain. Dawn assured me that I would lose body fat and gain lean muscle mass. I took the leap of faith and followed the XFAT plan to a “T.” At the end of twelve weeks my weight had decreased from 223 pounds to 198 pounds and my body fat dropped from 15% to 6.7%. The 6.7% body fat was calculated using a hydrostatic water body fat test which is supposed to be the most accurate available. I was leaner than I had ever been before and still had my muscle mass that I had worked so hard to gain. I am positive I could have continued on a follow-up version of the XFAT program and continued to cut body fat but I had now shifted gears and wanted to bulk up again. Dawn put me on the XLRG program and customized a new meal and workout plan aimed at all out mass gains. At the end of sixteen weeks on the XLRG mass plan I had gained an amazing 41 pounds! I had increased my weight from 198 pounds to 239 pounds. My body fat also increased from 6.7% to 9%. Dawn advised me upfront that the XLRG program was aimed at all out mass gains and that I would definitely put on muscle mass but would surely gain some fat along with the muscle. The XLRG program got me better results than I could have ever imagined. I plan to begin a new hybrid version of the XLRG/XFAT program and am anxious to see the results! Much thanks to Dawn and XBodyConcepts for helping me achieve my goals!

(XFAT (Lite) / XFAT Client) – XFATLTE is formatted for the perfect lifestyle change. XFATLTE took me from a starting weight of 223 lbs and a body fat percentage of 27%, to a weight of 200 lbs. and a body fat percentage of 22% in eight weeks. After completing the XFATLTE program, I started on the XFAT program. On the XFAT program I have dropped my weight from 200 lbs to 188 lbs, and my body fat percentage has dropped from 22% to 17.7%, and I still have a few weeks to go before completing the XFAT plan. So far I have lost a total of 35 lbs while gaining lean muscle mass and have dropped my body fat percentage nearly 10%. My waist size has decreased from 43.5” to 35” a loss of 8.5”!!! There are no extreme diets or workouts that tend to de-motivate people after a month or two. XFATLTE and XFAT are easy to follow and proven effective for extreme fat burning and muscle building. The key to success is simple consistency. This has been by far the most effective fat loss and strength building plan I have ever encountered. Click to View Transformation – (XFAT Client) – Hello XBodyConcepts Family, I want to give a little background about my journey into bodybuilding and becoming a figure competitor. During July of 2010, a friend introduced me to weight training and helped me prepare for my first Figure competition. I didn’t place or even make the top ten in the competition, but I was hooked for sure. I was determined to improve my physique by following a simple diet and weight training routine. When I began training, my starting body fat was 28% and I weighed 165 pounds on a 5 foot 9 inch frame, needless to say I was skinny-fat. In February of 2011, I decided to hire a professional trainer to help me train for my second competition. Once again, I didn’t place, but I was considerably more conditioned than the previous show. I was determined to prove to myself that I could make the necessary improvements by my third competition. After my second competition, my body hit a plateau, I was stuck. The extreme double cardio sessions and strict dieting left my body in a state of confusion. No matter how hard I worked out, I continued to put on extra pounds and found myself at 179 pounds and 17% body fat! I had also suffered a strained hamstring during a track workout that hindered my workouts. It was suggested by a friend, that I contact Dawn at XBodyConcepts to get my diet and training dialed in for maximum results. I was told that Dawn was an expert in getting people past their sticking points and had many strategies that she used to jumpstart her clients’ metabolism in situations where they had created problems for themselves using other far less effective weight loss and/or training schemes. I started the XBodyConcepts XFAT program on December 11, 2011. Dawn customized the program using a unique strategy to trick my body’s stalled metabolism into being a fat burning machine. It was hard to believe I could eat the items on my meal plan, work out and still get results. I had to resist my temptation to revert back to my old overtraining style of working out (i.e. double cardio days, etc.), in order to get the true benefits of the XFAT program. As the weeks went on, I continued to consistently watch the body fat melt away, but with ease. I also noticed I was gaining muscle. I continued with the XFAT program up until five weeks before my competition and then transitioned to a specific Pre-Competition training regimen to dial in my physique for the May 5, 2012 – NPC Contra Costa Bodybuilding Competition. Five weeks prior to the competition, I was amazed at the obvious improvements of my physique. I had never had so much lean muscle mass coupled with such low body fat. It was effortless compared to what I had been putting my body through prior to finding Dawn and XBodyConcepts. THE RESULT… On May 5, 2012, weighing in at 140 pounds and approximately 6% body fat, I won first place in the NPC Contra Costa Bodybuilding Competition (35+ Figure Competitor) and won fourth place overall in the open Figure Competitor Division. The key to my success was allowing Dawn at XBodyConcepts to take me outside my comfort zone. All I had to do was follow the XBodyConcepts plan and everything else fell into place!” (Click to View Transformation) Dawn was pleasant, professional and my treatment was very relaxing. My skin feels soft and clean and I’ve already booked another treatment for next month. Read Full Testimonial – (XFAT(Lite) Client) – I started the XBC XFAT(Lite) Fitness and Nutritional Plan approximately three months ago and I have noticed great results overall. Within a week, I felt better and I had much more energy. I used to feel a little lethargic and tired in the early mornings when I woke up for work. Within the first week, I had more energy and I stopped drinking the two cups of coffee I always seemed to need before heading out the door. That was the first noticeable change I had from the program. It took me a few weeks to adapt to the nutritional plan. Lucky for me, I work with several people who are also on XBC Fitness and Nutritional plans and it made it easier not having the daily routine of going out to lunch. I wasn’t used to eating a big breakfast or eating every two to three hours all day long, but after only one month I got into the routine. This was when I began seeing the weight loss and lean muscle changes. After the second month, I nearly reached my goal weight and conditioning level. My endurance on mountain bike rides also increased considerably. I had a routine physical exam two months after being on the program and my doctor was surprised at my lowered triglyceride count, greatly improved cholesterol levels, and greatly improved blood sugar level. He was also surprised to see my 20 lb drop on the scale. Prior to starting my XBC plan my doctor had planned on prescribing me medication to counteract some of the negative blood levels I was experiencing. The great improvements I showed in my overall health as a result of my XBC plan resulted in my doctor not having to prescribe me any medication! My doctor was fascinated by the improvements in my health! I attribute my progress to Dawn’s help and guidance. I admit my implementation of the program was not completely consistent or strictly by the book by any means. I could have worked out more and not occasionally veered away from the nutritional plan on weekends. With that said, I have been able to implement the program into my life and maintain the weight loss and endurance I originally wanted from the program. Thanks Dawn!
Also, I received not only one but two reminders about my appointment.
