I wanted to learn what to do and what not to do in the gym. I had also put on about 10-15 lbs after entering my 50's and going through menopause. In less than 4 months, I dropped 15 lbs. I also have learned from Mel exactly what machines to do for each specific body part along with how many reps, sets, and weight to lift. Mel has truly been instrumental in changing my life and I am so grateful to have met her. K. Hill

Mel took the time to understand my goals and tailored my workouts to fit my fitness level and eased me back into working out. I did group classes and the others in the group were great- working out didn't feel like a chore. I really appreciated how flexible and accommodating she was and always did her best to make me feel comfortable but challenged me to work harder. After 2-3 weeks, I felt myself getting stronger and it's been great since. If you're on the fence about getting a trainer, you can't go wrong with Mel.

He is knowledgeable about his craft and has the understanding that everyone starts where they are. He has made me feel so comfortable through this journey that it has built a confidence that I too can get not only to my intended results, but to do it the right way. Lastly, I came to Reggie having some limitations with prior ailments, and Reggie has helped me navigate through those to the point where I don't feel like they are limitations at all. His positive energy and love towards what he does and those he helps is something special. I highly recommend training with Reggie regardless of where you are today...it is where he will get you that will be worth it.

Fitness, Gold's, before initially coming here in 2025. I wanted to lean out and gain core strength now that I've become older. When I began training with Chris, I was somewhat apprehensive about the suggestions he made in changing the conventional regimen I had used and had been familiar with for decades. He emphasized a lifting regimen that utilizes a cardio based philosophy, only taking 80 to 90 seconds of rest between sets, incorporating a 45 minute kettle ball routine once a week, and regularly doing compound lifting routines. He also has me work not only my core strength but my balance as well. I've made improvements in all of the areas that I wanted to before coming to Elite and am in better overall shape than I could've imagined at my age.

When we first met and I explained what I was wanted, he said "I can't help with that but I can help with X and Y and that will get you to Z which is what you are seeking." I put my faith in Chris, with the expectation that in 2 months I will find someone else. Fast forward to today...as I wrote this message... 1. The team I'm on won the championship in Ohio which comes with a nice pay day. 2. My body, agility, movement has never been better since my days playing collegiate tennis. 3. My physical pain that I would experience after competing is gone. I have no pain in my hips. I have no pain in my back. 4. I truly believe Chris is a magician 5. He has a client FOR LIFE!

I am so glad I found Phil at Biofix Physical Therapy and Fitness in Lake Forest! I cannot say enough good things about Phil, who is also the owner. Unlike many clinics with a large staff of rotating therapists, Phil is the sole PT at Biofix (often assisted by a great intern). That means I get to work with him directly for the entire duration of my appointment. Phil is extremely knowledgeable, patient, thorough, and caring, with an excellent bedside manner. All of the tailored exercises he's taught me--including those using the specialized equipment in his clinic--have helped tremendously. I look forward to continuing my care with Phil at Biofix!

His style blends firmness with kids while ensuring they work hard and have fun. Whether your child is completely new to martial arts or looking to enhance their current skillset, I highly recommend Coach Thomas. He is trustworthy, really cares about the kids, and will push your child to be the best version of themselves. We've had the opportunity to do private lessons along with large/small group training in preparation for tournaments or just to keep my daughter in shape. Regardless of the situation, my daughter feels more confident and stronger by always having Coach Thomas in her corner.

I…read moretrain with him twice a week one-on-one, and within just a few weeks I could already see and feel real results. As someone who already works out regularly and stays active, I wanted a trainer who could truly challenge me, elevate my skill set, and push me past my comfort zone -- and that's exactly what Miguel does. It's obvious he's highly experienced and knows how to get the best out of you without ever making you feel uncomfortable or discouraged. As a female, I also really appreciate how safe and at ease he makes me feel while still pushing me to my limits. If you're looking for a trainer who's skilled, motivating, and serious about helping you level up -- Miguel is the one. Highly recommend!

Coach Johnny was lucky enough to get me when I was in the worst shape of my life. In about 2 months of personal training, I feel so much stronger and have much more energy than before. The best part of his personal training is that he really mixes the workouts up, so you never know what you're going to be doing. That keeps the training effective. He has a non-human amount of patience, and he's very personable. The variety and his personality make the sessions fun. He pushes you to perform at levels that you didn't believe you could perform at. He gets everything that you have out of you in every workout session. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a personal trainer.
