Testimonials

My entire business is based upon the people I have been working with over the years. My clientele has ranged from the average person just trying to get stronger and lose body fat, to triathletes. I’ve trained children ranging from 3-12 years old in gymnastics along with 60-92 year old men and women trying to keep and better their range of motion. Whatever your short and long term goals are, we will get there together!

After getting into a rut with my workout routine, I was in search of something motivational to refuel the fire. I knew Amy would listen to my goals and find a way to spice-up my workouts.   Despite the fact that we live in different cities, she was able to create a custom, online workout that was manageable for a busy lifestyle!   It was easy to follow and she even included pictures and videos so I could learn the proper form.  If I ever had a question, it was just an email or a phone call away.  By engaging in Amy’s workout plan, I’ve cut out inefficiencies that aren’t leading to productive results.  I now save time in the gym and have more energy for my other passions in life!

I began working out with Amy in October of 2016. We’ve been friends for years, and in the months leading up to me beginning with her, we had a couple of discussions about her training me. Nothing materialized out of those discussions until she informed me that her gym was moving into a space directly across the street from my apartment. I was finally out of excuses. I had the desire to get back into shape, but lacked the motivation. That changed immediately, thanks to Amy. She is incredibly knowledgeable about what it takes to live a healthy lifestyle. I have yet to ask a question about diet or exercise that she doesn’t have an answer for. Whether I want to know if chugging milk right before exercising is a good idea, or if some new “fad diet” actually works, she is there to tell me no. But what I enjoy most about being one of her clients is that she makes exercising fun. She’s got a bubbly personality, which helps to distract me from the absolute ass-whoopin’ she puts me through every session. My mom wanted to know what my secret was as she began to notice my slimmer figure. I told her about Amy, my mom began to train with Amy, and now my mom and Amy have been exchanging invitations to family gatherings. Amy is an incredible trainer, and an even better person. My life has changed in a very positive way because she is my friend and my personal trainer, and I have no doubt that all of her clients feel the same way.

Every time I would see my son, he was more and more ripped so I asked him what he was doing.  He shared he was working with a personal trainer so I immediately reached out and scheduled my first training with Amy.  We had a family wedding coming up so it was the perfect motivation to get me back into my fitness routine. Prior to training with Amy, I was on a big break from working out, and prior to the break, I was doing only yoga.  My muscles had deteriorated; I had lost all definition, and was carrying extra weight.  I also had a few minor injuries so I was concerned weight bearing training might make things worse.  Amy did a thorough intake with me and took extra care around my injuries.
Amy’s upbeat personality made it fun to go to the gym and workout.  She strikes the perfect blend between being social and making me work hard.  Amy’s knowledge extends into nutrition, and she is always eager to share what she knows.
By the time I was leaving town, and had to end my sessions, I had lost weight, gained muscle, plus had some new workout moves to take with me!

I began working out with Amy almost 2 years ago. Our first session started with an evaluation of my strengths and weaknesses and what I wanted to accomplish. My goals have changed several times in those 2 years, and Amy has always adapted my sessions to whatever my needs were at the time. I work out 3 days a week; one of which is with a friend. While we do the same exercises, Amy individualizes each exercise to our abilities.
I receive the same attention from Amy, whether I am having a one on one or working out with another person. I have observed Amy working  with groups of 3 or more and this individual attention never waivers.
Amy is always upbeat and has a way of encouraging me without my feeling that I am being pushed beyond my limits. I know that she truly cares about me and her goal is making sure that I reach mine safely.
In addition to training, I am fortunate to have Amy prepare 3 meals a week for me. They are both nutritious and delicious. From her expertise in this area, I have learned to make healthier choices in my eating habits and have been able to change “fat” pounds to muscle. Working out was always a chore for me. I had to force myself to go to the gym.
I now find myself actually looking forward to our sessions and when I am traveling I work out 6 days a week. Amazingly working out has become a part of my life which makes me happy.

I trained with Amy for nine months and that time was transformational and life changing for me. During that time I lost 25 pounds, learned how to eat healthy and correctly portioned meals, and learned how to incorporate fitness into my daily routine. I trained with Amy three times a week and ate the delicious and nutritious lunches and dinners that she prepared for me five days a week. I could not have achieved my fitness and weight loss goals if I had not coupled the exercise with her skills and knowledge as a chef and nutritionist. For me, the physical transformation was secondary to the internal progress and confidence I gained by training with Amy. Her positivity will brighten your day and her skilled professionalism will enrich your life. I would wholeheartedly recommend Amy to anyone serious about committing to a healthy and active lifestyle and who is looking for an upbeat and knowledgeable trainer. You will surely reap the rewards of training with her long after your time together in the gym.

I came to Amy as a friend who was frustrated in the lack of results I was seeing on my own. After years of working out using routines from magazines, apps, and websites, I had plateaued. I wanted to lose fat while gaining muscle; I wasn’t overweight, but I knew I could slim down. We started meeting twice a week for an hour doing low weight, high rep exercises. After about 6 weeks, we started moving into heavier weights, always focusing on proper form and execution. Through the right variation and repetition I began to really notice the results. And the whole time we were constantly documenting my measurements to compare my progress. In the year that I was working out with her I gained over 15 pounds of lean muscle, while also dropping my body fat percentage by almost 5%. Seeing it on paper was satisfying enough, but when I finally reached my goal of benching five reps of 225 lbs, I was elated. It’s a lot of work and Amy pushes you hard, but she makes the workout environment fun, and it’s all worth it to actually see the results and feel better about yourself.

I’m a 64 year old man who has lived an active lifestyle throughout life. However, over the last year I had gained some weight, and as a result of abdominal surgery had gotten out of shape. Through training with Amy over 5 months I was able to greatly improve my stamina, endurance, balance, core strength, overall body strength, and I comfortably lost 20 lbs.
I would add that Amy expertly calibrates each session to the physical capacities and needs of the particular client. I was never sore or having to recover from the pain caused by her training sessions.
Amy always brings her smile and good nature to sessions — she makes it fun and time passes quickly. Through session conversations she reinforces healthy physical and dietary habits.
I wholeheartedly recommend Amy as a first rate trainer and dietary authority.

Jason

I started working with Amy in July 2016.  My goals coming in were to lose fat and gain muscle mass.  In our first session, Amy took my measurements and devised a plan for me to reach my goals.  We put together a fitness and meal package that was very reasonable.  The results were almost instantaneous.  Amy really knows what she is doing and she makes the sessions fun!  I have been coming to Amy ever since our first session and I couldn’t imagine my life without our sessions.  If you are looking for someone that can deliver results, make workouts fun and make eating right yummy, than Amy is your gal.  I would recommend her to anyone, in fact my mom and sister now go to Amy for their workout plans.

I took a break from MMA fighting and kick boxing and am trying to get back into it. A friend recommended Amy to help with my nutrition and meal prep. Amy has been fantastic with her knowledge of nutrition and her delicious meals. With the help of Amy’s meal plans I dropped 40 pounds while also putting on muscle over the course of one year. Not only is her food healthy, but it is delicious. To me healthy eating was never appealing until I tried the food that Amy made. She has taught me a great deal about nutrition and what a reasonable portion size consists of, and it has directly contributed to both my weight loss and my fitness regimen. I would recommend Amy to anybody that is looking to lose weight. Or any athlete that is trying to maintain healthy eating habits and operate at their best.

Jim & Kathy Williams

My wife, Kathy and I decided that it was time to get serious about our health and exercise.  At 64, we had put on the pounds and didn’t know where to begin.  With a friend’s recommendation we contacted Amy and she helped us form a plan of nutrition and exercise.  At first she came to our home and began teaching us exercises that were fun and simple.  As our fitness level increased we moved to the gym.  Each week we spend 2 hours with Amy exercising and gaining strength.  To date we have each lost over 25 pounds and many inches.  Amy has made our training fun!  She is a true encourager!  As those who had never been in a gym before, Amy has helped us change our lifestyle and implement a plan that has shown real results!  We highly recommend Amy to anyone who doesn’t know how to begin an exercise and nutrition plan.  She will make it fun and encourage you along the way.

Amy is the complete package for fitness coaching! Through training and nutritional advice I’m proud to say that at 45 I look and feel better than ever!

Amy makes the gym challenging, yet fun and entertaining at the same time.  My workouts aren’t easy, but I actually look forward to our time in the gym!

To compliment our workouts I am learning from Amy’s nutrition and culinary expertise. I am so grateful that she is showing me how to cook healthier meal and snack alternatives through our weekly cooking sessions on-site in my kitchen. I’m not perfect in the kitchen, but I’ve come such a long way. I’m especially pleased with knife skills that make me look like a pro!

My experience with Amy was nothing short of life changing. She truly cared about my well-being and wanted what was best for me. Amy somehow manages to find the perfect balance of pushing you beyond what you think are your limits and remaining encouraging and supportive. Her background in nutrition is the perfect complement to her services as a trainer.

My training with Amy evolved over few stages. After beginning with building up endurance and a lot of body resistance training to develop an overall level of fitness, I transitioned into a stage of heavier-lifting/strength training. I’m now able to do compound exercises I never thought I would be able to do. I have Amy to thank for her supportive and encouraging methods to help me believe I could reach this level.

While the level of success achieved is ultimately determined by the effort put forth by the trainee, Amy will help you reach your goals and empower you to look and feel your best.
