Personal Training Success Stories

Before

Camille McCann

Age is only a Number!

Today is a celebratory day. I just purchased a pair of size 8 skinny jeans (used to be a size 14). Also, in September when I began Fitness Together, my husband and I walked the circle in our neighborhood. Troy told me about NIKE GPS, and I began my distance and time last week. On Thursday, I RAN (running for me, that is) the circle in 10.7 and today, Saturday, I ran that distance in 8.9. I am... so proud of myself, and I thank Troy for always pushing me to succeed. I have lost 15 pounds, 5 inches around my middle, and I have lost 6% body fat. This comes after not feeling so well after the second workout. This is the story of a "Baby Boomer" who never exercised a day in her life until this past September. Going to Fitness Together three days a week, walking/running on the other days, and eating well are true challenges. What helps also is having Troy look at my weekly food journal and discuss my successes and shortcomings, and I have had food shortcomings!!! I have 10 more pounds to lose, since I understand that this phase is even more difficult But now I am looking forward to the challenge. Thanks for reading this and being my support.

"Both my wife and I began working with Troy and Kevin last year and for the two of us, the experience has exceeded our expectations. No matter what one's intentions may be, you can't get the amount of encouragement and support you'll find at Fitness Together if you were to work out on your own. The atmosphere is fun while each visit is productive. We'd both highly recommend the program for those that are serious about achieving their goals....."

After 20 years of regular exercise and a trim shape, I became a mother at 41, and after the birth of our second daughter by 46 was 20 lbs overweight, exhausted, and not exercising at all.  I came to Fitness Together looking not just for a personal trainer but for a crash course to get me back on a healthy track.  Within the first few sessions, my motivation soared, and I knew I was in the right place.  Their trainers have an uncanny ability to know when and how to push, or support or encourage.  Through their wide repertoire of exercises and equipment, I was able to learn so much and gain experience with elements in addition to strength training like kickboxing and pilates that were new for me.  Best of all, I’ve had fun!  My confidence is back, my energy level is triple what it was, I’m sleeping well again, and I’m thrilled with the visual progress in just 8 weeks.  I haven’t felt so good in years!  Fitness Together-Cary is just what I needed and worth every penny.

As retirement approached, I had plans to spend much more time sailing and enjoying life. Unfortunately, business travel around the world had taken its toll on my blood pressure, weight, sleep habits, and overall health. Having fallen off the exercise wagon long ago, I was left with poor stamina, little energy, and bad eating habits. I knew I needed to make a change. Joining Fitness Together provided me with both a customized fitness program and the encouragement I needed to stick with it. The combination of nutritional advice, core strength training, and cardio exercise has helped me achieve results I never thought were possible. FT has truly changed my life.

          Balance and coordination greatly improved

          Strength and stamina greatly improved

Jenny M.

I worked out on my own for two years before realizing I wasn’t getting anywhere. I thought, “I could either give up, or get serious.” That’s when I joined Fitness Together. By the end of the first week, I knew I had made the right decision. Now, after only two months, I’m seeing the improvements that I missed when working out alone. I’m eating healthier, I feel better, and I can stand to look in the mirror again.

Stats: Lost 20+ pounds in two months

          4% reduction in body fat in two months

          100% increase in core strength and endurance

          Much more energy

          Significant changes in nutrition

Since writing this initial testimonial, Jenny has lost over 60 pounds and has almost lost 10% body fat.  She will be participating in her first race this spring--a half marathon!

The trainers at Fitness Together continue to challenge me beyond my wildest dreams.  They have introduced me to a completely different kind of training than I was used to allowing me not only to greatly improve my cardiovascular endurance, but my bench press is through the roof now, and I can crank out more push ups than I ever thought possible.  If you think you’re fit now…think again and try Fitness Together.

Thank you FT-Cary for bringing energy my way and getting me the result i needed!

My physician described my health as a “train wreck about to happen.”  Unfortunately, my busy schedule required far too much time and travel to properly take care of myself.  Fitness Together provided me with exactly what I needed: a private environment, confirmed appointments on early mornings and Saturdays, a customized program to suit my needs, and the motivation and encouragement to make it stick. As a client for two years now, I can safely say it worked. I have more stamina, I feel better, and even my doctor is happy. FT was just the ticket I needed!

Stats: Managed blood sugar issues without medications

          Increased flexibility

          Much improved heart rate and recovery

          Significant decrease in body fat
