Just have to take the time to applaud Inez for not just giving me the result I wanted but helped me improve my life over all. From eating better, to feeling better which turned into me taking better care of myself overall. Her plan shows you how everything is connected and if you are determined and focus enough you will become the person you sought to become. I just wanted to loose the weight. But I've gained so much more than just that these past three months. I didn't treat myself very well before starting her plan and now I treat myself the way I deserve. The food became my favorite to eat and I only crave water instead of soda or alcohol. Her plan helped me change bad habits including not ever cooking for myself. Now I love to cook! Need someone to push you and hold you accountable, look no further, Inez gotchu! read more

Fit-Nez - Trainers Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Inez is the real deal, y'all! Whether you're looking to lose weight, build muscle, refine your nutrition or all of the above, Fit-Nez can help! Prior to working with Inez, I had never worked with a trainer, coach or nutritionist. But after a year primarily in quarantine, I just wasn't feel great after such a long period of a mostly sedentary lifestyle and months spent in sweatpants. So after reading all of the reviews and doing my research, I stepped out of my comfort zone and reached out. Inez was quick to respond to my inquiry and provided detailed information about services offered and price points. I was a little hesitant at first not really knowing what pricing norms were in this world, but ultimately knew that I would be paying for a high quality experience from an individual with a wealth of knowledge and motivation style that I connected well with. So I signed up for a 12 week gold package and committed to a customized fitness and nutrition plan based on the goals that I identified for myself and in tandem with our first assessment. To be honest, I was terrified. Raising your hand and asking for help requires a certain level of vulnerability. But so does being weighed, measured and posing for progress pics in an old bathing suit when you're already not feeling at your best. (Seriously, the terror!) But Inez has a way of making you feel as comfortable as possible in these moments. I'm a very sensitive person, so I was worried that there would be certain descriptors or language used during my assessment that could be triggering but there was none of that. She's as professional as they come, has worked with all kinds of bodies and approaches it all as a science. She's free of judgement and is just going about her work so that she can devise a plan that works best with all the data points available. Over those three months, I would have weekly check-ins via phone. Although they were quick, they worked perfectly because all I needed was 15 mins. But it was nice to know that if I had any questions or was feeling frustrated during a week when I didn't see the scale move, Inez always had encouraging words. And these are not empty words. She not there to tell you you're doing great when you're not. But if she knows you're putting your best foot forward, she'll be there to get you to your next progress point. She's truly invested and wants her clients to be their best, so she gives her very best. But as a client, you've got to do the work and follow the plan. I also had to fill out a weekly update sheet with my own weekly weigh-ins and reflection points. Inez told me that if I followed the plan to 90% compliance, that I would meet all of my goals. And just like a science, it could not have been more accurate. The choices you make on your own, your workouts ...they all tell the story in your assessments. So if you try to take shortcuts or cheat the system, you'll only be cheating yourself. More than anything else though, Inez helped me to shift my mentality. Its not just about losing a few lbs, it's how to embrace a healthier lifestyle. It's not about depriving your body, it's about nurturing your body. So much of what I gained from working with Inez was a shift in perspective as well as the empowerment that comes from realizing that you do have the ability to control so much if you prioritize it. I also booked a few personal training sessions with Inez which was also a first for me. I've seen a lot of trainers stand around at the gym and bark orders while they gaze at their phone, which was so off-putting. But training with Inez was awesome! Thirty minutes would fly by and I always felt perfectly challenged - mentally and physically engaged. I grew up playing sports my entire life, so I do know what I respond to best when it comes to pushing myself and Inez has it! She's the perfect balance (for me) of tapping into that deeper, inner motivation that inspires you to give your best. She's not barking commands, and yelling "30 more seconds" because you broke form. That's not motivating to me. Instead, she's right there with telling you that you've got this, assessing and correcting your form while observing your natural tendencies. She's just the best! Obviously, by now you can tell that I strongly would recommend working with Inez but I also encourage you to be honest with yourself before you reach out. If you're looking for shortcuts or have a tendency to make lots of excuses, there may not be a fit. But if you know you'll give it your best and remain honest and coachable then you'll make progress and Inez will be right by your side through the ups and downs. Although I've completed my 12 week program this will not be the end of me working with Inez. My goals will continue to evolve and I look forward to working with her in those next iterations. But I can tell you that working with Inez is money well spent and an experience that I'm so grateful for! read more

Inez's personalized, informed, hands-on approach is unquestionable for its results. After our initial 12-week nutrition coaching and personal training plan, my lofty goals were exceeded in every category - weight loss, fat loss and body recomposition, strength gains, and nutrition management. Inez excels at being responsive, punctual, encouraging, a clear communicator, and an accountability partner. By demystifying the science of nutrition and strength training, Inez has elevated my knowledge and understanding which has set a great foundation for me to carry out this lifestyle change predicated on healthy food choices that enable my movement, strength a.d body goals. 10/10 - highly recommend! read more

Inez helped me regain control of my life in a way I never thought possible. She taught me how to truly listen to my body, understand my hunger cues, and rebuild my confidence. Her ability to personalize the program to fit my needs, while delivering incredible physical and mental results, was nothing short of amazing. I highly recommend working with her! read more

Not only did I spend a lot of time filling out a couple of forms and a questionnaire, but I also spent hours with my insurance to use my Flexible Spending Account. After a few months, the insurance approved the expense and sent a check to Fit-Nez. I went back and forth with Inez for weeks to make sure she received the check, and she never mentioned that there was an apartment number in the mailing address!!!! When I contacted her to confirm if her mailing address was correct, she realized she never gave me the apartment number. Instead of admitting she made a mistake, she refused to provide service rudely. She is so self-entitled and pompous; I didn't expect that from a personal trainer who should have a positive attitude, excellent communication skills, be attentive, and be courteous. I was very disappointed with her and do not recommend her. read more

It can be so intimidating to find a fitness and nutrition coach that helps you feel comfortable as you embark on an exciting journey and all the learning points along the way. This is what makes me so happy to have heard about and had the courage to reach out to Coach Inez to help me start my wellness journey. I reached out to Coach Inez when it became uncomfortable to sit down and breathe because of all the weight I had gained. I knew I needed a change and needed to take action for my health. Coach Inez keeps me accountable, motivated, and gives me the tools I need to succeed - the rest is up to me! With Coach Inez's nutrition and fitness guidance, even in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, I was able to lose almost 10 lbs, 2.5 inches off my waist, and 3 inches off my hips in around 2.5 months. I accomplished this even though I admittedly had many bumps along the road like overdoing it on my cheat meals. Everyday I'm learning more and more about myself with Coach Inez's help. Coach Inez's approach is exactly what I was looking for because although I'm working through undoing years of bad habits, I'm replacing them with lessons of health and wellness that I'm able to easily integrate into my daily life. This makes my journey a lot more manageable and I'm confident that the new habits I'm forming are those that I'll keep for life. For example, with Coach Inez's help, I have the confidence to navigate the waters when life gets busy, if I have to travel, when I go out for dinner, etc. One day I hope to also get some personal training from Coach Inez. Can't recommend her enough! read more

Fit-Nez - Feeling good and stronger and wearing smaller clothes! - Trainers Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

I lost a total of 28 lbs. Inez supported me during postpartum after having my baby. I went to her at the end of covid and lost 12lbs and kept it off for 2.5 years and then had a 10lbs baby. . I didn't try to lose weight on my own, I knew I need help and I was overwhelmed, I immediately went to her. My jackets didn't even close and I didn't recognize myself. After the baby. I did two plans (total of 6 months) with her an I lost 28lbs and 19% body fat. She made rethink about food and how it should be fuel. I don't think I would be able to do this right after having a baby alone. Her fees are worth it, it's a financial investment on your health. Her program is very reasonable and practical, I never felt hungry. However, if you don't follow her plan (ex: going off the plan- drinking a beer, snacking on processed food), the plan is not going work-you need to take it seriously and not cut corners. Inez genuinely cares about you, and when you give your weekly check-ins, she gives you thoughtful feedback. Inez is amazing at keeping you accountable and supported the entire time. Definitely recommend for new moms! My husband also did her plan and he had great success, we are very thankful for Inez. read more

I started working with Inez a little over a year ago and I'm so happy I found her. I was making really poor food choices, being lazy and letting outside pressure dictate a lot of my decisions. I had done weight loss programs on my own before but never found one that helped me create a real sustainable lifestyle so I needed help. What really appealed to me about Inez was her straight forward approach to weight loss, and now what I've learned to be more important, body fat loss. Her plan for me was all about clean eating, incorporating strength training and creating a foundation for a healthy lifestyle. She's encouraging but also no nonsense. She kept me accountable during covid and kept me excited about the changes I was making. Now, even after a week of vacationing, I'm able to jump right back into my clean eating and exercise plan because I enjoy it and how it makes me feel. I can see my lifestyle changing for the better and I can keep growing even after finish working with Inez. Throughout the year she's helped me in multiple ways and anyone would be lucky to work with her! read more

See all

I LOVE Inez! Shes a great mixture of competence, character and compassion. She wants to see you win, knows the specific knowledge to get you there, and is sensitive about where you are in life in general to ensure you are good to go to be successful. Schedule a consult and hire her. She's worth it! read more

I am surprised to see so many great reviews. My experience is that Inez is not equipped to handle clients that experience unexpected traumatic life events and is unreceptive to feedback. She completely misunderstood a single comment I made and took it out of context at an extremely stressful time in my life giving me zero benefit of the doubt. She then proceeded to provide robotic service for the remainder of my program essentially making it impossible for me to want to spend the money to continue on in spite of having been a hard working and dedicated client. read more

I had an amazing experience working with Fitnez!! Inez is an excellent nutritionist and coach. She caters her guidance to each person, educates them along the way and makes sure they see and feel progress. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to improve their health, wellness and daily lifestyle. read more

If you are on this page reading this review and contemplating using Fitnez, DO IT! I was introduced to Inez through my friend who had incredible results and finally pulled the trigger for myself January 2020! I am based in Philly so went for the Virtual/Remote program and that worked pretty seamlessly. Despite the distance, Inez and I were able to connect anytime through various communication channels whether it be facetime, texting, or e-mail. All of her help lead me to lose 16+ pounds in 12 WEEKS!!!! Trust me, I think I have tried every diet and exercise plan under the sun but Inez's program led me to the ultimate success. She's simply amazing!!! She listened to my overall goals and put together a customized meal and fitness plan for me. I am TYPICALLY on the road a lot for work so she gave me plenty of on-the-go options to make sure I stuck with the plan. With our weekly check-ins, she held me not only accountable but motivated me for the week ahead!!! I don't think I have been in this good of shape in a long time and not only from a physical standpoint but also internally-digestion wise as well. With the stay at home mandate in order, I knew the only way I was going to get through was with the help of Inez so I renewed my virtual program. She put together a plan with new workouts (with or without equipment) and eating options if I can't find certain items. She's as nimble as they come and will help you navigate toward any goal you need!! The only question I am asking myself now is, why didn't I sign up sooner Thank you Inez for all your help. You truly have helped change my life! read more

Working with Inez has been one of the best decisions I have ever made for my physical and mental health. Before Inez, I was working out consistently and eating what I thought were the right foods for my body, but I wasn't seeing the results that I wanted. I was getting ready to audition for the Washington Redskins Cheerleaders and I knew I had to seek professional help if I wanted to achieve my ideal physique before the auditions started. I found Inez and we got right to work! We discussed my goals and then she created a customized nutrition and exercise plan for me. Within one week on her plan (yes, ONE week), my body felt leaner and lighter. It wasn't always eating following the plan, but Inez was there for me every step of the way giving me the tough love that I needed to keep going. But what I really loved about working with Inez is that she took the time to educate me on how my body reacts to certain workouts and certain foods. So while I was following a specific nutrition and exercise plan, I also had a better understanding of things like, how much protein I should be eating each day and why it was best for me to do mainly strength training instead of cardio. Everyone's body is different and Inez's plans are created specifically to meet your goals and she teaches you so much along the way. I am happy to say that I am in the best shape I have ever been in and I am more confident in myself after working with Inez. I am now a Washington Redskins Cheerleader and I know without a doubt that I couldn't have done it without Inez as my coach. She is the BEST and she will be by your side throughout your entire fitness journey - challenging you, motivating you and encouraging you to be the best version of yourself. And at the end, you WILL see the results you want! read more

I cannot express enough how amazing Inez is and how impactful her program has been in my life. After a very difficult year, I decided to embark on a fitness journey to help me find healing both internally and externally. I was depressed and had no sense of direction on how to eat for my body and how to train in a way that made sense for my goals. When I met Coach Inez, everything changed. With her program, I was able to finally understand what it means to eat clean. I was able to understand why certain workouts were important for me. I was able to develop healthy habits that the old me would have never been able to achieve on her own. And these habits are here to stay with me for the rest of my life! In just a short course of three months, I have seen huge results: -16.5 pounds lost -11% body fat lost -waistline and hips reduced by 4 inches -2.5 inches lost in my thighs This fantastic progress and great change could not have been done without Coach's constant support, positive spirit, and thoughtful, tailored meal/workout plan. Not only does Inez understand what it means to go through a fitness journey and when things get hard, but she provides nuggets of wisdom throughout your journey to help you stay motivated, accountable, and in short, to enjoy the process of it all. Fitness is a very emotional journey, and it has a lot of ups and downs. But Inez (Coach), was there through it all with me! I'm so grateful I found her and so thrilled to continue training with her for a second time in the fall. Coach Inez is not only a true symbol of strength, but the passion she has for wellness, fitness and nutrition shines with the brightest light! Thank you for all the joy and impact that you have brought to me and countless others, Coach! read more

My husband and I started this journey together, and Inez has truly transformed our lives as well as our family's. Being coached by her has redefined our approach to nutrition and exercise, and now I naturally eat healthier, cook healthier foods, and even purchase healthier snacks for my family. I am in the best shape of my life and have more energy for my little ones, which makes the whole process worth it. My husband and I constantly say - signing up to be coached by Inez was the best decision we have ever made for ourselves, and I look forward to continuing to see our results unfold. Thank you, Inez! read more

Inez is an amazing nutritionist and trainer. She custom builds the program to fit each person. I have been very happy with the result of losing weight, creating better eating habits for a healthier life style. Shahab read more

If you are truly serious about changing or even tweaking your health and fitness levels as well as understanding your triggers (let's face it we all have them, hidden as they may be!) then Inez is the person for you. We're talking a wonderful, energy-filled powerful life change, not a quick fix. Inez guided me, a person who was out of shape and running on empty, through the process and I have never felt better since I was 15 years old! read more

I did the 12 week plan with Inez. She gave me a work out and nutrition plan that I was able to follow. I had weekly check in's with her which helped me be accountable. During this time, I built healthy eating habits and exercise became a part of my life style. You will lose weight, gain muscle and overall you'll feel great if you follow her plan! Inez is always honest with you - but you also have to be honest with yourself if you want real change in your life. read more

I started working with Inez 12 weeks ago in January 2020, simply looking for someone to help motivate me for my upcoming pt test in the Army. 12 weeks later and my entire life has changed...aside from the obvious quarantine dilemma that we're all in. I never would have imagined how much her coaching would change me. As the weeks started going by, my reasoning for working with Inez was no longer about an upcoming PT test. My focus changed-I felt better in all aspects of life! The program that Inez puts together is personalized for each individual-she knows what she's talking about. The meal plan is super easy to stick to with enough variety so you don't get bored. The workouts are just as easy to follow. Inez is always there if you have questions or need clarification on any aspect of the plan-SHE WANTS YOU TO SUCCEED! Now more than ever, being stuck in this weird quarantine funk, having a set plan and one on one coaching with Inez has been so beneficial in keeping me motivated. With all the gyms closed, Inez has created at home workout programs that can keep us all crushing our 2020 goals along with virtual coaching where we can still get corrected on form, in real time, from the pro herself! If you want work with someone that truly cares about YOU and YOUR goals, Inez is your girl! read more

Where to start...Inez changed my life. It's simple. I came to her as a friend with a goal of getting healthier, losing weight was a second priority for me, and I trusted her (still do) to get my health under control. Opening up to Inez with my health issues was easy with the environment she created and the love she exudes to her clients. After a month, my health did a full 180 and after 6 months, my health issues were a thing of the past. Inez did that by guiding me with a no BS attitude. The no BS attitude didn't mean I couldn't talk to her about stress and/or slip ups when they happened, it was expected that I would talk with and known that I would receive no judgement from Inez. She tailored everything to me, my body, my schedule, my lifestyle and she got to know me on a deeper level to ensure we were hitting our goals. I say "our goals" because your goals become her goals and she takes them on to ensure she is on the journey with you! While she and I are on a break working together because my work has been 24/7, she still makes efforts to check in with me daily before we pick back up work together in a few months! I would (and have) recommend Inez to anyone and everyone who is looking to get healthier in their lives. She is the biggest positive force in my life and I am forever grateful to me dear friend! read more

I have absolutely loved everything about working with Inez to achieve my fitness and nutrition goals. She is honest, approachable and extremely down to earth. Inez's hands-on style worked really well for me, I loved all the fun little tips I picked up along the way from her. Inez helped me not only to find the motivation and confidence to push past the barriers that have prevented me from finding success in the past, she helped me to change my lifestyle to live a truly happier and healthier life. The best part is, somewhere along the way, my coach became my friend and a trustworthy confidante. I absolutely recommend Inez to anyone who is willing to do the work and follow the plan. read more

Inez is an experienced and dedicated trainer who to provides the highest standards and quality fitness. I've used a personal trainer before and didn't have the same results as when I started working with Inez. She offers customized strength training and easy to follow nutrition. Her program holds you accountable with a combination of diet and exercise. Before you start she lays out your plan based on your weight and body fat and what you need to do inside and outside of seeing her to see results. Her program is designed to get you disciplined on the track to be able to workout on your own and she highly encourages that. Each session is challenging and different. She mixes up each session to make sure that you are getting the most for your time and money. She tracks progress weekly and reviews your diet to ensure you are getting the most out of her program. Inez is very dedicated to her craft. She has been such an instrumental part of not only my health but my life. She treats you just like family and wants to see you succed. It is important to recognize that not only has Inez been able to teach me how to incorporate a healthy approach to nutrition and exercise in my life, but she is living proof of the results that can be achieved. She is an inspiration to me given what she has achieved on her own. If you're interested in a personal trainer and ensuring you see results, definitely give reach out to her! read more

I was ready for a change when I found Inez. I couldn't have known that my whole way of life would quickly shift in the most rewarding and positive way. Inez is knowledgeable, helpful, responsive and ready to work hard. I saw results right away and felt better than ever before. Almost a year and a half later, Inez continues to help me reach every new goal I set. I feel like a completely different person than when I started with her. I'm grateful for all she does to show me the way and coach me to success. If you want to put in the work and drive to your own goals, Inez has the map. read more

My experience with Inez was truly life-changing. I first reached out to Inez after seeing a coworker's results, I knew right then and there that I needed to see what all the hype was about since her work truly spoke for itself. At this point in my life I had gotten to a point where I was just not happy with my physical appearance, as a personal stylist I pride myself in my appearance and I found myself always having to wear baggy clothes and barely wanting to be in any pictures with my friends. I had also tried pretty much every diet in the book.. Atkins, Weight Watchers, Paleo., I was even a vegan for a full year in hopes that it would do the trick! That's when Inez came into my life, I was excited and nervous after my initial consultation... she was pretty much asking me to change my entire life - no eating out, no ordering in, no drinking, but all she asked for was for trust. I remember her looking at me and saying "The plan doesn't fail anyone, only people fail the plan" and honestly.. that's all I needed to hear. Once I started, I found her meal plan easy to follow.. no guessing games which was really helpful. I'm not lying when I say I saw IMMEDIATE result... within the first 4 days i noticed my clothes fitting me better, I actually had to use the drawstring on my lululemon leggings to make them a little tighter! I loved knowing that I knew exactly what to do everyday, from my workout routine to what to eat. Her workout sheets are awesome, you have so many options and they vary from easy to hard, I was now that person in the gym doing the crazy HIIT workouts. Trainers at the gym were coming up to me asking me questions about my routines... whattt??? One of the best things about Inez's plan is that she genuinely wants you to live a better and healthier life, not just lose weight for that special event or for the season. She gives you the tools that you need to not only succeed but also keep it going for the rest of your life, which is what I have been able to do. I lost 30 pounds following her program and although it was hard at times it was 100% worth it. I still stick to her plan because of how good it makes me feel. Whenever I get a compliment on how I look I make sure to bring up Inez and my journey with her up because I want everyone to know about it! She truly did change my life for the better. I'm now at the point where I'm getting ready for my wedding and couldn't be happier to work with her again. It's been 4 years since my transformation and have been looking forward to shredding for the wedding with her!!! read more

Fit-Nez - Trainers Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Inez has truly been a godsend, I started working with her in February this year after becoming so frustrated and confused by the overload of nutrition and general fitness information that is out there. I have worked with multiple nutritionists and trainers before, but Inez has been the only one to help me see real, healthy, consistent progress (by week 5, I lost 10 pounds). Inez developed a personalized nutrition plan for me that clearly outlines every detail. My plan allows me to have options and variety in my meals making this plan so realistic and manageable. I also see Inez 1-2x a week for training. Even during COVID-19 quarantine, Inez has adapted to virtual coaching sessions that have been seamless. I work up an incredible sweat with at-home workouts and virtual coaching sessions push me more than I am able to do on my own. This is so necessary for me, especially at this crazy time when it is so easy to get off track and lose sight of my goals. Thank you Inez! I appreciate you so much and look forward to continue working with you! read more

I just moved to the DC area at the beginning of the year and I wanted to find a trainer that would push me and help keep me moving forward. I had just come out of 5 years of hell with my job and a really bad relationship. After looking at other reviews for trainers online, Inez was the one that stood out by far. She literally was the first person I talked to in the area, I made an appointment with her within the first few days of arriving and before my household was delivered. I knew she would set me on the right path. Inez was exactly what I needed. Her energy will keep you on track, and you just keep pushing because you don't want to disappoint her. Her plans aren't difficult either. She literally lays out everything for you, so there is no time wasted on having to research and figure things out on your own. Just do the plan and workouts and you will be successful. Her plan is all encompassing, nutrition, workouts, and overall well-being. I am in the best shape I have been in over 5 years and my physique is changing weekly! I like to focus on glutes and abs with Inez in our personal training sessions....my butt has never been so firm, and I can feel my core is so much stronger! I want to also mention that during the COVID-19 shutdown...Inez didn't give up on us. Without skipping a beat, we switched to virtual training sessions with the equipment I had at home. She also formulated strength and cardio workouts for us if we didn't have equipment. We have zoom coaching sessions and I still sweat my butt off and my muscles were on fire! She's the trainer that WILL keep you on track and continue to lose weight and change your body during these crazy times! Thank you, Inez, for all you have done for me...mentally, physically, and spiritually! You helped me get Jen back!! read more

After giving birth to my second baby, I was ready to get back in shape and feel like my old self again. I worked with Inez to set up a truly customized nutrition and workout plan. She educated me throughout the program about the best ways to fuel my body and achieve my goals of weight loss, increased strength and increased mobility. She coached me through a very delicate time in my postpartum journey with compassion and patience. She understands that sometimes life can get in the way and no one is perfect, but she taught me how to better prioritize my body and how to get back on track when you feel like you've been derailed from your goals. Inez helped me create healthier eating habits which led me to a better relationship with food. Her nutrition plans truly work - if you follow them, you can't fail! After 9 months with Inez, I am down 30 pounds and down 10% body fat. Since I started working with her, she has helped me realize that I am becoming a healthier, stronger version of my old self! I can't say enough about Inez she is truly awesome! read more

Now and then, you will come across a trainer whose every sentence throbs with ambition. In his mind, he's ready to turn the world upside down. In the client's thought, they may not see anything in him, and they can use yet. Today he knows what works for him and for those he wants to emulate. However, for a bystander, they want to see evidence that he knows how to get results for people who are nothing like him, who have goals and obstacles he can't relate to at this point in his career. To some, it may be that having a physically fit body becomes the platform that makes the introduction. Still, as a fitness professional myself, I feel the thing that allows people to resonate with me or any other coach is beyond looking physically fit. The idea that will encourage someone to want to pay attention to anything a personal trainer has to say has more to do with their ability to identify themselves in you. That becomes everything. Because without that, there's just sets and reps, or portions and calories. Without further ado, It is with great pleasure for me to write this recommendation (without her approval) of Inez for anyone seeking for a fitness professional. Inez is more than just a persona trainer. Being a trainer in the eyes of the general public is one thing, but in the small circle of fitness professionals, it can be quite easy to separate a coach from a trainer. And if you want results, not just someone's time it would be foolish to look any further from Inez's services. The things that are unique to her personality are the struggles that are revealed in what she has overcome and in who she is today, which is what encourages anyone to want to take the journey with her. Coaching isn't just about science, exercise, and having acronyms behind our names. It's about being able to listen better, speak efficiently, relate when appropriate, and show empathy instead of sympathy. Inez is all of that and a bag of chips. In closing, Inez is a true fitness professional that knows that her job is to serve as an exercise expert, not as an exercise specialist in using one tool. Inez will be the most significant part of your training session, not the equipment. read more

I have been working with Inez for about four months now and she has completely transformed my relationship with both food and exercise. I used to workout excessively and eat minimally thinking that was the key to the body I wanted, I was wrong. With Inez's guidance, I have been able to become a healthier and stronger version of myself. Thanks Inez! read more

I started training with Inez in 2013 when I wanted to to compete in a fitness competition she gave me the courage and coaching I needed to permanently change my entire lifestyle. Since then I have had two kids and stayed in excellent shape thanks to her guidance. I've never injured myself working out with her as opposed to other trainers and she always keeps the work outs fresh. I feel like even all these years later we still manage to find new workouts to define. Highly recommend Inez she is an expert in her field and really knows how to sculpt the body with out causing injury boredom or fa read more

Fit-Nez - 2 months post baby vs 7 months post baby - Trainers Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

See all

My family has a history of diabetes, high blood pressure, glaucoma, cataracts, high cholesterol, heart attacks, strokes, obesity, arthritis, anything you name it and by family history I mean it's really close. Two of my grandparents combined suffer from almost everything I named and the heart attack and strokes happened to their parents. In me currently living with them it hurts my heart to seem them take as many pills as they do everyday and sometimes can barely walk up and down the stairs when they are only in their 60s. Then I look at my other 2 grandparents who are their same age and don't have any of the same problems but lived totally different life styles through the years. My parents and grandparents were all skinny when they were my age. Now they are older, bigger in size, and don't live as healthy and active as than can be living. I have been overweight and unhealthy ALL my life. With me be classified as "obese" at the age of 22 with a real health age of well over 30 I knew would only go downhill with age. And when I got to my parents and grandparents age I would be even worse at their current states. That was the last straw. I wanted to change my life once and for all. I joined Gold's gym in March 2010 and was introduced to the idea of having a personal Trainer. I took that idea and made it a reality and met Inez my new trainer. Five months later, I had lost over 55 lbs, 2 bra sizes, 1 cup size, and 3 jean sizes working with Inez. Today I feel better then ever! I'm more active, have more energy, can shop in stores I never could before, and I love the way I look. I have learned not only how to eat better when I am at home but I make great healthier choices with food when I am out of town for work. Inez has shown me the tools that have changed my life forever and has been THE BEST motivator ever. We make a great team. Inez Sobczack has saved my life! And I plan to live a longer and better one thanks to her! read more

I worked with Inez over the course of six month. I went in thinking this would be just a nutrition plan. What it ended up being was the most important t decision I would make for my health. Inez has a way of helping see why you make the bad habit decisions and provides tools on how to break those bad habits. She is there to support, guide, and motivate with a dose of tough love. Over the course of my time with her, I not only had a mindset shift, I also learned how to be consistent with making meals that were good for my body, I learned how to prep for weekends when I tend to fall off plan, and for busy/stressful times of the month. I also left the program empowered and confident that I could commit to this lifestyle going forward. I lost weight, inches by definitely gained a lot more. read more

I've only been working with Inez for about 2 months, but I couldn't be happier. I've been a runner for several years now and thought I was in pretty good shape, until my first session with Inez. After running a marathon in under 4 hours, I gained weight and LOST muscle! I was completely surprised. Working with Inez has taught me about proper nutrition and how important it is to do strength training in addition to cardio. I never knew I could sweat so much in just 30 minutes of weight lifting. I am already seeing results with my body fat percentage dropping considerably and my ability to lift more increasing. I finally have some muscle tone in my arms and legs! I used to run for a minimum of 1-hour 6 days a week, but now I only do cardio 4 days a week for 30 minutes. Its great, especially for my busy schedule. I would highly recommend anyone to work with Inez...male or female. My boyfriend works out with me some days and he can barely keep up with her workouts! Her muscle mix class is also KILLER. She truly is an inspiration to me, and I look forward to continuing to work with her towards my fitness goals. read more

Working with Inez has been life changing. The nutrition and fitness strategies based in science and her vast experience are really the magical combination. So often we get one without the other and both are fundamental. The thing is - Inez gave me hope again and I didn't realize that I had lost it. Approaching 50 I just thought certain fitness goals were no longer possible - that I should just embrace weight gain and elastic wasted clothing. But, NO! I've turned my thinking totally around because I have lost 30 pounds and continue to work with Inez to re-define my fitness goals (it's really not just about weight loss) because now I'm hungry for more and I know it's possible. Yes, it's work - but work with direction, support and expertise. If you are ready, you will get what you need to make real, lasting changes. Some things are too hard to do alone. read more

So here is the truth. She isn't for everyone, she won't teach you nutrition, and she will give you a meal plan and you cant ask additional questions about substations because its a waste of her time. She is emotionally immature and has issues regulating herself which in terms makes her rude and unprofessional. It's her way or the highway, and if you struggle to meet results she will automatically blame or shame you instead of helping you investigate what the underlining issue could be. Lots of people can crash diet you into loosing weight, but a true coach will help you change your outlook and educate you. I'm not saying she isn't getting results for some people, but will encourage you to investigate and compare others that are in the business. Beware of "all good reviews" they can be coached to be produced. read more

Inez is resourceful, dedicated, knowledgeable, encouraging, motivating, and a true professional! She is dedicated to bettering the health and life of each of her clients. Inez will change your life for the better and deserves my highest recommendation! read more

I was about to turn 65, overweight and out of shape due to Covid, addicted to sugar, wheat and dairy, and looking for a coach in Arlington. I met with Coach Inez and she literally turned my life around. In my first 12 weeks on the Fitnez nutrition and exercise plan, I lost 12 pounds and 3 inches off my waist, 1.75 inches off both my hips and thighs, my triglycerides went down 36 points, and my body fat went down by 3.5%. This was all while suffering a head injury where my ability to work out was limited, and I was not able to drive so met with Coach Inez most times virtually. Coach really listens and guides you all along the way to healthier eating, and to regular exercise geared to your circumstances. You learn that "food is fuel, not therapy." She has a system and many years of experience to help you succeed. Coach Inez is a competitive body builder, so is an inspiration and embodies the ultra-healthy life style. She has heard every reason there is to not eat healthy and knows how to get you through it. I now think about everything I eat and drink, avoid what is not good for me, and no longer have IBS. After a life-time of poor eating habits, I eat regular meals and am no longer addicted to processed foods! I found that once I was taking good care of myself under the Fitnez plan, I started taking better care of myself in other areas. Coach Inez can truly change your life! read more

Inez is more than just a tough workout twice a week. She is a motivator, an inspiration, and a friend. I look forward to all my interactions with her, whether it is Boot Camp, 1 on 1, or a class. No matter what, I always feel that I have worked as hard as I can with her. It's not just because she makes me, haha, but because I know that in the end there will be amazing results. I am living proof already that she can help you shed inches and pounds, in addition to getting you eating healthy. Her workouts are SO hard but more importantly she provides amazing nutritional help and direction. I can go into the gym everyday and work my butt off, but never see what I want to see because I still eat poorly. So, then you say to yourself, what is the point in going to the gym. Inez has provided me with a nutritional plan that I can not only follow, but that I enjoy. The results have been amazing. In the 2 months that I have been working with her, I have gone from 29% body fat, to 18.8% body fat. That is incredible. And all along the way, I was receiving motivational emails, text messages, workout updates, and fun healthy recipes to try. With a wedding coming up, and all that stress, it is really nice to know that someone has your health as a top priority. Inez has proven to me that she can get me where I want to be. If I just believe, I can get there with hard work and great nutrition. I have never really followed a diet, or a plan before, but again she makes is easy for me. I am not going to say that I haven't cheated before, but when I do, I feel guilty. I know that the next day, Inez is going to ask me what I ate yesterday, and I can't lie. I feel great, I look great, and I eat great, all because of Inez. read more
