I’d heard of Kenya often but we’d never met around town until recently, after Mo’Nique show funny man Rodney Perry told him to recruit me on his “assembly line to fine.” I’ve never been the thinnest chick in the “A” and partying and all night blogging hasn’t helped my waistline any either, so when Kenya hit me up, I jumped on board with no questions asked!

Kenya and I will be working it out for the next few weeks months and I’ll be sharing a bit of it with you here on SFTA each week. His goal for me and all his clients is to learn to put yourself first. Hopefully we can recruit a few of you to follow along on this journey cause I’m gonna need all the support I can get!!
In addition to his multiple weight loss success cases, Kenya has also gained notoriety for training other celebrity clients like Usher’s ex Tameka Foster Glover Raymond, former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Deshawn Snow, Ray Leonard, Jr. (son of Sugar Ray Leonard), Philadelphia Eagles Pro Bowler Levon Kirkland, Playboy playmate Brooke Richards and former Atlanta Braves player Michael Devereaux.
Prior to dedicating his talents to helping people lose weight and keep it off, Kenya experienced a distinguished football career. He played arena football with the Carolina Rhinos, was a record-breaking wide receiver at Clemson University and was ranked as the 13th best receiver in the country at Seneca High School.
Kenya shares a bit of his weight loss tips in a recent issue of RollingOut:
What is the key to losing weight and keeping it off?
You have to marry the mind with the mouth. If I can inspire you to believe and accept that you can do the unthinkable, then it becomes possible to lose weight.
What is hardest case you have had?
I haven’t run into the hardest case yet because most people come to me with a humble heart.
What is the challenge to leading a healthy lifestyle?
Teaching people how to lead a healthy lifestyle by showing them how to prepare the right foods, and cook. A lot of times there’s a lack of preparation because we’re doing what’s convenient. We can’t continue to do the same things, and expect a different result — that’s the definition of insanity.
What inspires Kenya Crooks?
My inspiration comes from GOD because I realize that what I have and will accomplish is due to what He is allowing to happen through me.
