Joining Western and committing to personal training is the best investment I have ever made in myself. Personal training keeps me motivated and accountable with targeted and effective workouts. The guidance of my personal trainer allows me to keep pushing past my limits to achieve goals I didn't even know were possible. I am grateful to have found such a supportive and welcoming community of members, personal trainers, and group fitness instructors all working together to find our greatness. Thanks to the support of my team at Western, I am healthier, happier, stronger, and more confident than I have ever been.

I started working out with a trainer after I had rotator cuff surgery. I wanted to get back into shape as well as regain strength and muscle mobility after surgery. I started working out 2 days a week with a trainer and taking an extra class here and there as well. When I started, I could only lift 3 pounds. Over the last 2 years, I am up to lifting 45 pounds and my strength and endurance increased. My coordination and balance grew stronger as well. I recently had rotator cuff surgery on my other shoulder so we are starting the process over again, but I am confident that I will reach my goals again thanks to my personal trainer.

When I first came to Western, I was at my heaviest weight ever and did not know where to start, so it was helpful to go through the Initial Consultation. Since starting with a personal trainer, I have seen great improvement in my strength and overall fitness level. I am much more comfortable with different exercises and feel more confident in my own health and fitness outside of our sessions as well. In less than six months, I was able to lose 45 pounds to meet my initial weight goal. Through it all, my trainer and Western have partnered with me to meet my goals and I look forward to continuing towards new goals in my health and fitness journey.

I am so pleased with the continued results I’m seeing after nearly a year of personal training with a Western trainer. His motivational and personal approach has inspired me to not just strengthen and tone, but also to better understand my eating habits. His fitness coaching and willingness to help not only with my fitness habits but with my eating and lifestyle habits has enabled me to lose 15 pounds this year! My trainer always pushes me to do better, but in a way that is fun and enjoyable! All I can say is, thank you! I look forward to continuing training, learning, and reaching more of my goals in the coming year!
