MY Phoenix Fitness Testimonial

ME And MY Trainer

I have suffered with health concerns for many years and was sick and tired of being sick and tired!!!!!

lou1A dear friend of mine, who is a member of Phoenix Fitness suggested that if I join the gym and get a personal trainer maybe I would get better.  What did I have to lose?  Through my friend, an appointment was made with her friend, a personal trainer at West Hamilton Phoenix Fitness, who has been a personal trainer for many years.  I arrived at Phoenix Fitness armed with information I had from my doctor and showed her the challenges she would be faced with.

Irritable bowel syndrome/border line Crohn's disease (which has been bad enough to cause me to pass out),  food allergies (basically all processed food),  penicillin allergies, lactose and soy intolerance, high blood pressure and triglycerides, 3 knee operations and after a full day's work I was so exhausted I was shaking.

After about fifteen minutes of consultation, she said she was up for the task. I asked her, "Are you sure you can handle this old geezer?"  With a big smile, she responded. "I will kick your butt!!"

I'd never, ever stepped inside a gym before and never lifted weights — this was a whole new world to me — so I was very nervous at my first session because of my stomach problem but MY personal trainer made me feel at ease.  She was quick to see I was completely out of shape because I couldn't lift, bend or balance anything!  The next thing I knew an hour had passed and I was hooked.

We've worked together, two sessions a week for six months now  and I can't believe the difference.  I'm much stronger and have better  balance.   My "bad" days are fewer and farther between and when I do have them, they aren't as bad and I recover much more quickly.  I sleep better and have more stamina. I'm doing things I never thought I would and feel so much better about everything.  Friends have commented that I look better and how positive I am again.

Each time I come for a session I keep amazing myself and MY trainer.  MY personal trainer, who is so caring and professional in her experience as a trainer, has make me feel very much at ease coming to Phoenix Fitness.  All the staff really care about  members  like me and I truly appreciate their confidence in me and my personal being.  Training with my personal trainer is never dull, I think she is part magician because she's always pulling new exercised out of her hat!!!

My aches and pains are slowly going away and I function much better.  I'm looking forward to the next six months because I know I'll see even more improvement.

Thank you, MY Personal Trainer and Phoenix Fitness , for caring.
