Personal Training Success Stories

Tracie has been a fan of personal training since 2005. Being a wife, mother of four, business owner and philanthropist is a full plate for anyone.  With such a workload it was no wonder that exercise very rarely made the cut.

 

"I finally realized after years of sporadic stints at the gym that physical fitness would never be a priority unless I made it one." Tracie said  " I began asking women, who had the bodies that I wanted, for weight loss secrets. The answer was always the same. Proper nutrition, weight lifting, cardio and a personal trainer."

 

So Tracie set out to find a trainer. What she found was that all trainers are not created equal. To her surprise,  most that she encountered were uncertified, knew very little about nutrition and even less about nutrition for a female in the 35+ age bracket. To add insult to injury, her sessions often took place out in the open of a gym for all to see.

 

"Not only was I frustrated by the lack of effort placed on my workout," she began, "but I felt self-conscious squatting and grunting in the middle of a busy gym."

 

Then she stumbled across an advertisement for Fitness Together and the rest is history.

 

"I was thrilled to finally have a partner in my fitness journey. The trainers are knowledgeable, the facilities have private suites and they created a personalized routine and nutrition plan for my needs that is altered as needed."

 

Tracie is the reigning Mrs. Northern California America and is working with Fitness Together Arden Arcade to prepare for the Mrs. California America pageant in July.

 

" I couldn't imagine preparing for this competition without my trainer Lanell. It's not a luxury, it's a necessity."
