Be informed that ethical and professional conduct of one of the fitness coaches named Andrew are…read morevery questionable and jeopardizing this company good reputation. This fitness coach will not provide you with the refund for the services that were not used. I had to move out of the state and I was told that he will not give me all of the refund at once due to "personal large expenses" he encountered and will pay me back in 2 parts. I received 1/2 of my refund and now I cannot get the other 1/2 and he blocked my number. I tried to reach out , unsuccessfully, to the owner of this facility located in Tumwater, WA. This is not a spam and I have all written communication and receipts.

After many years of being active but not knowing what best works for my body, counting calories,…read morenever really losing body fat, and wondering what exactly the right eating plan was I was referred by a friend to Amanda. I had a wonderful experience with her personal training sessions. She is down to earth and unlike any other fitness coach I have met. She was realistic, organized, punctual, readily available, encouraging, flexible, and informative. Amanda knows her stuff. There were times in the beginning, when I started eating the way she suggested and I started freaking out feeling like it was unmanageable but she would talk me through it and I came through the experience with a much better understanding of food. I finally, after 44 years, feel at peace with food without tracking and counting calories. No longer do I obsess over certain foods. Amanda teaches you what your body needs (and it isn't cutting entire food groups out). She taught me awesome weight lifting exercises and body strength exercises too. What she taught me I can use at home or any gym. She didn't lead me on trying to hook me into buying more sessions - she simply taught, gave me copies of what she taught, and moved on to the next session. She explained a lot about stretching, taking care of your body after workouts, and more. Amanda delivered everything promised and more. I walked away with a new understanding of how to fuel my body, without going hungry, and what the best workouts are. She kicked my butt in the gym but was encouraging the entire time - she made me want to push myself but not in a mean way. Her gym is awesome - everything you need to get fit. I can't say enough good things about Amanda. I would highly recommend her. She is very personable and friendly yet professional. Definitely a good personal trainer for any age or gender. She knows her stuff and will get you in shape if you listen to her and work hard. I am down several lbs, clothes are looser, feeling good about myself, getting strong, and no longer obsessing over counting calories or the latest fad diet. She has given me sanity in the health department and I can't put a price tag on that.

I was blessed to be able to work with Maxine as my personal trainer while she was doing her…read morenutrition training so I have experienced both her skills as a trainer and her passion for individually appropriate nutrition planning. I can definitely attest to her wonderful training methods, positive attitude and her ability to motivate and get results. I had worked with other trainers previously but due to my health issues I kept getting hurt or discouraged with them. Maxine was always so encouraging and effective with each and every workout and she always made sure to keep my goals in mind along with appropriate ways to accommodate my physical limitations. The only reason I stopped working out with her is because I moved out of the country for a few years. If I lived closer, I would choose to train with her again in a heartbeat.

I turned 59 years old 7 months ago was so sick and depressed I could not…read morefunction- literally. I began gaining weight over 10 years ago even though I ate healthy. I could NOT lose weight even though I was eating low fat, lots of organic veggies and whole wheat pastas. I went to see 'doctors' and they assumed I ate cookies and ice cream. I became extremely ill and the day I decided to go to the doctor, I barely made it. I was throwing up and found out I had type 2 diabetes which explained the tooth and periodontal problems, foggy-brain, anxiety, and exhaustion, among other things. I contacted Maxine, and told her what I had found out. Maxine designed a food plan and simple exercise regimen for me and I stuck to it. Literally within 2 weeks my blood sugar went from 358 to 110, and in one month it was normal. In 3 months the doctors were shocked when they retested me for everything from blood pressure (which had been high) to blood sugar, and said "this has never happened". The diet they suggested would have kept me on medications, and I would have gone down the road of depending on meds with no weight loss. Maxine is educated in the science of how obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, periodontal problems, high cholesterol all stem from the same faulty assumptions about diet, and exercise. I lost 60 pounds over several months and, more importantly, within the first few weeks I was back to my happy self. As I was losing this weight, and lowering high BP and then reversing symptoms of diabetes, I sometimes got frustrated and complained with "how come I'm not losing weight faster", or "I don't feel good", or "why does this hurt?". But Maxine was knowledgeable in being able to tell me what was going on with my body during the process. I realized then that I never was clinically depressed, it was just my body that was so out of sync. I would be happy to send any of my medical information through Maxine that was taken at the U of W with the numbers and data that show such a dramatic change that the entire staff at the clinic was amazed to see. They are not trained as Maxine has been - and if you have any of these problems, this may be the way out for you as it was for me.
