Just finished intake sessions with Taylor (from Taylored Health). It was so informative and I…read morewalked away with clear next steps--not just theory. She really listened to what I was strugglig with and helped me understand how my body worked so I could make the most useful changes. What I love most is how she takes a holistic approach and sees me as a whole person addressing questions and concerns beyond nutrition that impact my health and possibility to follow through on a plan. Then I received a tailored action plan consisting of small steps that I know I could integrate into my busy life. As a certified life and career coach, I know that this approach leads to real results and life long strategies for success. I'm very excited to implement what she shares with me.

Working with Laura has been an amazing decision and I am so happy she has guided me over the last…read moreyear. I came to Laura not with any specific eating challenge, but I was an irrepressible nail-biter and no matter what I did or how much willpower, rewards, previous counseling, or even negative conditioning I tried, I always found myself falling back into the same patterns and then chastising myself for not being strong enough to break this habit. These responses played out even at times of success and appreciation from others. Laura collaborated with me to identify and address the complicated causes of why and how I interpreted everyday emotional conflict in both my perceived failures and successes, so that I could then take small steps to address how it manifested in my nail-biting. A year later, I am proud of the work we did together to soften these impulses significantly longer than I can remember and the success I feel when I look at my hands today. Laura continues to stay a resource as needed, and I am so glad I invested the time and resources in her program so she could help me dig into my root causes.  Her collaborative approach and guidance improved my life far beyond my nail-biting impulses and I could not recommend her highly enough.

Inching into my mid-thirties, and having the boilerplate health (and vanity) concerns, I knew what…read moreI needed to do to be healthier (and more comfortable in my skin) but just never stuck to doing those things enough to make a difference. "By this time next year, I'll be fitting into those old skinny jeans again. I'll just start doing x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, and x." When I met Laura and heard of her services, I though to myself "do I really need to pay someone to do what I already know I need to be doing?" And after I few more months without change I realized the answer was a resounding, "ugh, I guess". What really pushed me to the point of seeking Laura's guidance wasn't stepping on scale as much going to the doctor and having high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Because of my nutritional resourcefulness and scientific inquisitiveness I assumed up until that point that I was healthy, simply by having knowledge about what was healthy. But, the numbers proved me wrong. Working with Laura helped me to filter my overwhelming amount of nutritional and health information into small and manageable lifestyle actions. She helped me to pair down my health actions binging (and then long period of disappointed apathy) into realistic adjustments. I look forward to having my sessions with Laura, not only because she is personable and knowledgable, but she's a perfectly nonjudgmental counselor to gently guide me down the better path when I stray. The key to Laura's success is making the plan tailored to what I enjoy in life and not unrealistically cutting out indulgences. The helps bring pleasure and wellness to a balance. I got my blood panels done again last week, and my anxiety at viewing the results melted away at I saw that my total cholesterol has dropped 55 mg/dL down to 155mg/dL, and all of my number are in the healthy range. I shouldn't have been that surprised, since I've lost 12 lbs and feel much better. Laura knows what she's doing, and even if skinny jeans are no longer trending, I'm just happy feeling better in this one body I've got.

As a nurse, I have seen many patients struggle with weight, which in turn affects many aspects of their lives. I'm impressed not only with what she knows, but also the fact that she took the time to obtain a respected certification. A lot of patients' complain that they aren't listened to or understood from an emotional standpoint, and Meghan manages to have a full grasp of both because these aspects go hand and hand. I absolutely endorse Meghan for these crucial reasons.

That's what Lauren is doing and we are seeing results after only a month and a half. Her technical knowledge is strong and, best of all, her interpersonal skills are amazing. She really encourages and challenges me. I strongly recommend Payne Personal Training!

I loathe working out, I do not have a history of nutrition or physical activity--for a very short stunt of time years ago, I frequented LA Fitness for personal training & bemoaned the arrival of each session. I am a moderately anxious, depressive mother of 2 & Lauren does what not even myself can do: she makes me feel good. She makes me strong! She makes me peer toward the future of the possibility--no, plausibility--of being good & strong! I look forward to our sessions each week & I look forward to seeing her. She's a trainer, that's for sure, but she's also become a friend & I am so fortunate to have her in my life. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone to get them out of a rut, & keep them going. This is what personal training is all about, right? It's not just lifting weights & doing jumping jacks. It's about finding someone who helps facilitate lifestyle changes, manages to keep you pushing yourself over humps, & somehow makes it...enjoyable? Damn, I did not think it could be done. Lauren does it.

I have worked with Lindsay for almost a year now and have only the best things to say about her!…read moreNot only is she a wonderful personal trainer she has also become a friend. She is very attentive to what you are looking for in a workout. I had a knee injury so I wanted to be careful with certain workout regimes, Lindsay made sure to focus on strengthening my mobility around the knee along with lots of particular stretching. I felt like Lindsay made an effort to make me feel comfortable about my fitness journey and that made me feel confident and excited to continue forward with my progress. I highly recommend Ace Strength and guarantee you will not only have a fantastic outcome but a great person guiding you along the way!

I first met Lindsay when she was a coach at the gym I was going to…read more After my initial class with her, she had set herself apart from any coach/trainer I have ever worked with. It's obvious the years of learning, training and dedication she has put into her business, as after spending one minute with her you can tell this is her life. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable about proper technique, body movement and form, but she also took the time to help and correct every person that was taking the class. If she saw one person struggling in a class of people succeeding, she would rewrite or modify the entire workout for that person. Many times "that person" was myself. She made going to classes that were at first scary or intimidating become classes that I would look forward going to. I knew that I would leave with a better understanding and in turn, a better workout because of her love for teaching and the love for her sport. Since then I have taken up training with her multiple times a week. She has helped me train my mind and my body to lay a foundation of awareness that has allowed me to preform at an extremely higher level. I'm no longer working out "just to do it" , I work with Lindsay to constantly push the boundaries of what my body can achieve. I am always impressed with what she pushes me to accomplish. I've gained a lot of confidence and it's still growing, all thanks to Ace!!

Edith started working with my son at 13 years old, and he is currently 19 now. What a life transformation in a short time too. From school, to social, confidence, to clean eating, working with his hands, to fitness, competition and more! Edith's approach is warm, flowing and natural like a friend steering another friend in the direction. She is very pleasant and turns any situation into a beautiful one. She comes off as more teacher than therapist to my children, but one that they never want to part with. My entire family benefited by meeting and working at some level with Edith. It was the best investment I made and fun at the same time. Every day and every single moment working with Edith was an absolute Joy and Delight! In less than a year, each member of my family for the first time started chasing our dreams. Her name up comes up in conversations randomly even in topic outside of scope of her work. We now have an energy; drive and the forces of Champions that is taking us to places we could never go to before. We all now are eager to go to sleep each night, after a very productive day, just waiting to wake up and get started again, enthusiastic!!! My family are all truly thankful for this.

Katie saved me. After months of painful, persistent symptoms and thousands of dollars of doctor's…read moreappointments and tests that produced little more than conflicting- and inaccurate- diagnoses, Katie was able to zero in on the issue, get me on a plan, and very simply- and easily- bring me back to physical and energetic health. Yes, there was the discomfort and pain. And there was the expense and inconvenience of it all. But the hardest part of being sick was losing the feeling of being myself. I had started to lose hope in the next day, week or month being better. I lost faith that things would improve. Facing pain and illness as a new normal is a terrible place to be. Katie pulled me out of that place. The meal plan and supplements turned my chronic condition around in 3 days. 3 days. I will be engaging Katie at the outset if I ever have another, similar issue. I'm not going to put myself through painful, expensive and inaccurate medical tests without checking with her first. Katie is a gift. She is a healer. Don't hesitate to reach out to her asap.

After a pregnancy where I…read moredidn't prioritize movement or maintaining strength, I was able to rebuild with Katie in a very thoughtful/intentional way.

Katie is the most present personal trainer I have ever had, and she has helped me feel confident in my body again, and importantly, strong! A session with Katie is always the bright spot in my week and a good day is destined to follow ‍

I've gone to Cristina twice in 2 years. I learned a lot about eating right when I first met her in…read moreOctober 2017. I weighed 160 pounds with 25% body fat and had a body age of 37. One month later I lost 12 pounds and had a body fat content of 19% and had the body of a 30-year old at age 31. One year later, I was hit by a car while I was on my bicycle and suffered a broken left wrist, a sprained right shoulder, and a left knee contusion. I knew that I could not heal faster by putting extra stress on my joints despite healthy physique. That's when I called Cristina again. She put me on a meal plan that not only helped me weigh 138 lbs with 14% body fat and have the body of a 21-year old but helped me heal faster too. My cast was removed 3 weeks and 3 days after the accident and my wrist completely healed 3 weeks afterward. Cristina does a great job of tailoring meal plans for your situation and she will change your life for the better. I am now more confident than ever due to the hard work that I put in and I am very grateful to be alive and healthy thanks to her commitment and support for me during my greatest obstacle.

I workout with her and follow her custom meal plans. In just a short period of time I am stronger, my posture is better and my back and hips are never tight. If you are looking for a trainer, I highly recommend Cristina. Each training session is different and tailored to you. I find I actually look forward to my workouts. She ensures that my technique is always correct to avoid any injuries. In addition, Cristina is patient and encouraging, but more importantly she is always available to answer questions. She is extremely reliable and punctual with exercise routines planned in advance. I can't be happier with what Cristina has helped me to achieve (that has been safe and sustainable). Thank you so much!
