Personal Training Success Stories

Other Client Testimonials

I have never been a "work out" person.  I was a pompon girl in high school when all of that activity was easy as a teenager!  I tried aerobics a little in my 20's and walked some here and there throughout my 30's, but basically never "worked out" at a gym.  After having two children, taking medication that made me gain weight and reaching my 40's, it was time for a drastic change.  So I made a commitment to myself to get in shape, and decided to start working out at Fitness Together in Edmond. I was paired with an excellent trainer  who started me out slowly and gradually pushed me to where I am today-35 pounds lighter!  You work out in a private room one-on-one with fun music to inspire you, and gentle encouragement to keep on trying when you think you can't lift those weights one more time!  But oh, how the end result is worth it!  The great thing about having an appointment to work out is there is no excuse not to do it.  If I was at home there was always something else to do-laundry, dishes, etc., etc. and by making an appointment and going somewhere to work out, there is nothing you feel you should be doing besides working out!  You have an initial physical assessment starting out and periodically throughout your work out term to let you know your progress.  The assessments are quite encouraging, motivating you to go on with your workouts when you know how many inches you are losing and how your overall health and flexibility are improving.  I have been thoroughly satisfied with my experience here and would encourage anyone thinking of "getting into shape" to start working out at Fitness Together!  This is coming from someone in their 40's who has never really "worked out" in her whole life.

Angela Cox (Edmond, OK)

When I started at FT, 2 years ago, I weighed 210 lbs.  My trainer treated me with great respect.  He seemed to believe that I could do everything he asked despite my age and obesity---so I did.  I’m 60 lbs. lighter than when I began, and my strength and agility are the best ever in my life.  I no longer need blood pressure medicines, and my blood sugars have been normal for over a year.  Thanks so much !

Gail Snow (Oklahoma City, OK )

When I began this fitness program, I was overweight and certainly not fit.  I am 83 years old and I have discarded by walking cane and I am no longer stooped.  I now walk erectly and much farther than I have in several years.  My upper body strength is much greater and I look forward to each workout.  All these enhancements have come about in just four months-April 6, 2009 through August 19, 2009. 

Donald Hines (Edmond, OK)

I have been working out at FT since the first OKC area store opened in Edmond (15 years?)  I will turn 60 this year and I am convinced that my workouts are in large part responsible for the health I enjoy.  I feel good, look fairly good for my age, and most importantly, have retained the strength and flexibility I enjoyed 20 years ago.  I recommend FT for any “old fart” looking to feel good about their body.

Jim Larimore (Edmond, OK)

After 20 years of rushing around trying to take care of everyone else’s needs, FT helped me to focus on myself.  The private atmosphere and personalized program helped me gain the confidence to do this and keep doing this.  I’m actually having FUN and getting fit at the same time…who knew that was possible?  I didn’t.  I used to hate working out…but NOT anymore.

Wendy Hendricks (Edmond, OK)

I appreciate the support I have been given at FT.  I feel there is a genuine interest in the clients.  As a health professional myself, I know how important accountability is.  The workouts are ambitious but do-able.

Karen Meyers (Edmond, OK)

The staff at FT is always very professional and attentive to my needs.  My trainer goes above and beyond the call of duty.  Because of his training techniques and his encouragement I have run one ½ marathon and two full marathons.  My trainer is involved in all the elements that are necessary to achieve this,  from proper diet, cardio, fixing my Polar monitoring device when I mess it up, tips on how to properly carb up for my long runs and just all around encouragement.  I would highly recommend Fitness Together on Country Club Drive.
