Comment: I had a great experience working with Andrea. I came to her at 5 months postpartum and was weak after having a very sedentary pregnancy and gaining 30+ pounds. Andrea customized workouts and a diet plan that was easy to adapt to my life. I not only am at my pre-pregnancy weight but am continuing to lose weight with the dietary knowledge/workout techniques she has instilled in me. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone trying to build strength and have a healthier life!

Comment: I stumbled across some great reviews for Andrea Lane via an internet search and maybe thats what brought you here today. After reading the reviews, I decided to try strength training one more time. Ive tried with multiple trainers in the past and it just didnt click. Ive been working with Andrea for 5 months now and the entire experience has been wonderful. The thing that I love the most is that no session is ever the same and I never get bored. When we first met, we talked about my goals (strength and flexibility as I age) and we started out at a level that was manageable and progressed steadily from there. I never get discouraged and Im always proud of myself when I complete a workout with Andrea as I can clearly see how much stronger and more flexible Im getting. If you want someone who can help you achieve your fitness goals, I highly recommend Andrea.

Comment: My (now) husband and I were gearing up for our wedding with certain fitness goals. After doing some research, we connected with Andrea and have never looked back.We started off aligning on goals for BMI, strength, physique, nutrition (which I reached ahead of my wedding date thanks to Andrea!). Each training session was custom according to my and my husbands needs and mobility (per the FMS method). As we progressed Andrea tweaked the sessions accordingly, which kept workouts interesting and at the right level of difficulty.Andrea taught us tons about long-term health, nutrition and fitness that I am using in my day-to-day. Turning these habits into a new lifestyle has been the best takeaway from this experience.It was always a dream of mine to work with a personal trainer. And now I can confidently say that the sessions and results with Andrea are just as good as I imagined.

Comment: My wife and I trained with Andrea leading up to our wedding and it was the best thing we’ve ever done for our bodies. From the initial FMS screening, to our diet plans, and our custom workouts - Andrea provided the guidance and plans for us to reach our goals. As our strength and mobility increased, the workouts progressed as well, keeping them fun and interesting, and ensuring we continued to make steps and not plateau. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking to make meaningful and lasting improvements to their physical health.

Comment: Andrea is truly a holistic trainer. My goal was to put on muscle/weight and to generally become stronger as I get older and Andrea has been helping me achieve my goals over the last 1.5 years by focusing not only on my workouts but also on my eating habits, sleeping routine and general stress management tactics. She always listens to my concerns and goals and changes up my workout depending on how my body is reacting on a certain day in order to ensure that I’m not overextending myself in a harmful way. She’s really made me feel great about my body and pushes me to try new things each week. I would highly recommend her to anyone that’s looking for a positive mental and physical change in their lives.

Comment: I cannot stress this enough.Andrea changed my life.In an effort to keep this review from turning into a full-blown novel, I will simply say that after gaining a total of 65 pounds over the course of my pregnancy and lockdown, being on bed rest with a wound vac after 4 abdominal surgeries in the span of two weeks, and being diagnosed with diastasis recti and muscular atrophy, I had the balance, posture, and strength of an infant for well over two years. I couldn’t go up the stairs without holding onto the rails and walls with both hands, I couldn’t stand up straight for more than a minute at a time, and I certainly couldn’t do even the bare minimum when it came to body weight exercises.I’ve worked with Andrea previously in 2021 through Zoom, and she helped me become a little stronger and more functional at home. Working with her in person though, from September to mid-December this year, was an absolute game changer.First and foremost, she is knowledgeable and professional. She is the only trainer I’ve ever worked with who took my safety and comfort into consideration with every single movement, every little lift of my shoulder or twist of my waist. She is kind and compassionate. Despite my size and my struggles, I never felt judged, rushed, or pressured to push further than what was safe.I don’t know how much weight I lost, to be honest. I decided the number on the scale doesn’t matter to me anymore. All I know is I went from being an XXL to a large (sometimes a medium!), and I can do things that were physically impossible for me for years, like pushups, planks, leg lifts, squats, and everything in between. I went from using both hands to slowly wobble up the stairs while heavily breathing, to sprinting multiple flights of stairs, two steps at a time, without so much as a puff of air.I went into this with the intention of becoming stronger, healthier, and more confident in my body, and I got exactly what I wanted, and so much more.I strongly recommend Andrea to anyone looking to build their strength, balance, stamina, and flexibility, but please; if you’re a woman recovering from any postpartum complications, once you get the green light from your doctor, give Andrea a call. You won’t regret it.Stay well, everyone!

Comment: I chose to train with Andrea to prepare for my wedding. I lost 25 lbs in 4 months with her help. Ive had two trainers in the past and she by far tops both of them. She is knowledgeable about health and fitness. What I love about her is that she creates sessions unique to the client and keeps it interesting by changing it up every 3 weeks, she corrects your form, but also steps aside so you can stay focused, and is so knowledgeable about nutrition too. She goes above and beyond to ensure her clients gets results. She includes nutrition calls as part of her service and is science based. I love her energy and would recommend Andrea to anyone that wants to look and feel good!

Comment: Andrew Lane is a fantastic personal trainer who is passionate about her profession and focused on the needs of her clients. She has an exceptional ability to design custom routines that correct imbalances in your athletic abilities and help you achieve peak overall performance. Her remote program is also an excellent fit for someone like me who requires flexibility but wants individually customized routines that help you progress and achieve your fitness goals.I initially consulted Andrea in 2020 as an injury had impeded my existing workout strategy and was causing me frustration. She perceptively diagnosed my deficiencies and developed a progressive strategy to correct my initial weaknesses and develop proper form. Her training regimens have surpassed my expectations and helped me develop a sustainable routine of building strength and improving my overall health. I have also been extremely satisfied with the remote program format. It helps me balance a hectic calendar while still pushing me to make progress in each 4-week evolution.I am an extremely satisfied client of Andrea’s. She has helped me exceed my personal fitness goals and I believe her fitness program is a sustainable platform that can adapt to my shifting physical and scheduling requirements.

Comment: I contacted Andrea in June of 2020 to get in shape for my wedding. The company that makes my wedding dress makes the dress to my measurements. I wanted help losing quarantine weight and also maintaining that size once my final measurements were submitted. Since June Ive lost 20 pounds and I felt confident and happy with my body going into my final measurement date. Andrea created workout programs and diet plans specifically for me every month that were very easy to follow. 99% of the program was virtual because of the pandemic. I was able to do all the workouts from home after buying a few home gym items (resistance bands, exercise ball, Jungle Gym Straps) and she went over the new exercise program with me every month over Zoom. She was able to work around any injuries (ankle/knee pain are my issues) and never made me feel guilty if life happened and I missed a workout. She really incorporates lifestyle changes like consistent bedtimes, sugar intake, and portion control so that these changes can be lasting. She asks about your mental health too since stress can take a toll on you physically. If youre ready to stick to a program and put in the work, give her a call.

Comment: Andrea is amazing! I had a lot of old injuries including multiple knee surgeries, nerve damage, carpel tunnel and two ruptured discs in my back. I was very deconditioned, overweight and nervous about exercising let alone weight training. She took each one of my issues and adapted exercises and stretches to strengthen my base muscles. This increased my stability and strength helping to correct years of damage. I went from literally not being able to do an exercise to being able to do multiple reps with added weight. I also had a less than healthy relationship with food. Andrea gave me a plan with lists of foods to eat and portion examples. Throughout my training she gave me feedback and specific instructions to achieve my goals. Andrea was always encouraging me, and she continually broke through my perceived roadblocks.She is smart, strong and kind. Truly the perfect trainer. If you need help to become healthy, you need to call Andrea she is worth every penny. Word of advice… if at first you don’t succeed do what Andrea told you to do the first time!

Comment: I am happy to write this review for my personal trainer, Andrea Lane, in Carlsbad. My daughter and I have been working with Andrea for several months now and are very happy with our results! I originally contacted Andrea after a few years of falling off the fitness wagon and needing to regain strength and overall fitness. Our daughter has never had a fitness routine and along with her challenging genes, is in a precarious position with her health at a young age. I knew I had to do something to reverse the unhealthy course in our family.As our fitness trainer, Andrea has focused on our strength, mobility, flexibility and balance, all of which were challenges for both my daughter and myself. Our workouts are specifically tailored to our individual needs and Andrea gives us a variety of exercises to keep our workouts fresh. As our nutrition coach, Andrea assessed our diets and made recommendations for improvements, as well as helping us set goals. With the help of Andrea, our overall health has improved significantly. Just as important, we now have an established fitness routine that we can both maintain and actually quite enjoy doing as mother and daughter. My main goals were (1) improve strength and overall health; (2) establish a fitness routine that puts a priority on maintaining our health. I believe with Andrea’s help and guidance, we have met both of these goals and will continue on our road to great health!

Comment: I was looking for a personal trainer to work with me on core strength and weight loss. I have always been active and strong as a runner, gym rat and snowboarder but over the years I kept gaining weight no matter what type of new class I would join or how much I exercised. I needed to find a fitness trainer to help me change my lifestyle in order to feel good about my body and be able to lose weight. I found Andrea Lane in searching for personal trainers in Carlsbad and right away I knew she would be helping me with more than just exercising and losing weight. Andrea encouraged me to make healthier lifestyle choices while working a program that fit with my work schedule. We started working on building strength in the places where my body lacked foundation. By following her nutritional coaching I learned healthier eating and meal planning habits. By following her strength training I began to feel stronger, more balanced and my posture improved. In just a couple months I saw improvement in my weight and measurements. The training facility Andrea uses is in great condition, offers a variety of new equipment and is clean and spacious. A few months after I started training with Andrea I found out I was pregnant but I decided to continue training with her and I am still training with her in my sixth month of pregnancy. I have no doubt that this was a good decision because I have no back or leg pain like my other pregnant friends and continue to feel stronger and more toned in my arms, legs and back. I think it is still important to pay attention to my eating habits and exercise while pregnant so it will be easier for me to lose weight after birth. Andrea keeps me motivated during my pregnancy to stay active and my program has continued to have an extremely positive impact on my energy levels and wellbeing. I plan to continue working with Andrea as long as my body will allow and look forward to restarting our program and keeping my weight down after I have my baby. I would absolutely recommend Andrea to all my friends and people in Carlsbad looking to make a lifestyle change.

Comment: I came across Andreas personal training website at a pretty critical point in my life. After a Drs visit, lab results showed High Cholesterol, Obesity and borderline Pre-Diabetes. Past work experience in the hospital and family history told me exactly how this story would play out if I didnt make some drastic changes in my life. That past year I had visited a nutritionist without seeing any results. I had also started exercising on my own, but due to inactivity experienced injuries setting me back further.Enter Andrea.To call her a triple threat - personal trainer, nutrition coach and motivational coach - would be accurate, yet youd only be scratching the surface. From the beginning she broke down monthly goals into attainable tasks involving fitness, nutrition, flexibility, education and personal motivation. Some months have been more successful than others, but reviewing what did and didnt work at the end of each month helped build goals for the next month. As a personal trainer and nutritional coach she curates a plan specifically for your body type, health and overall goals. Shes never let up on me. And shes never let me get down on myself.Working with Andrea Ive lost 30lbs. I now exercise regularly and look forward to it. What Ive loved so much throughout this process, is that shes reminded me - It Is A Process. I didnt get to the health stage I was in overnight, and health goals would not be achieved overnight either. While being incredibly supportive - She Pushed Me. Hard. But she worked me properly while getting over past injuries. Building strength, gaining flexibility, maintaining form. She knew just how much to push and listened, adjusting accordingly, when my body was telling me to let up.Shes made such an impact in my life. I truly could not recommend Andrea more as a personal trainer, fitness trainer or nutritional coach.

Comment: Andrea Lane has quite simply been an amazing personal trainer for me! She took the appropriate time to understand who I am as a person, my eating and exercise habits as well as my age and physical ability to craft a nutrition and exercise program specific to me. As my nutrition coach and personal trainer, she helped me get back my desired physique, improve my nutrition habits and attain my targeted weight goal. Quite frankly, Andrea has done what no one else could do and I have regained my happiness in life and feel great! I highly recommend Andrea Lane as a personal trainer and nutrition coach!

Comment: I was referred to Andrea Lane by a younger and very fit woman who has been working with Andrea as her fitness trainer for several years. She described the grueling workouts that Andrea developed for her, so it was with trepidation that I first met with Andrea to describe my fitness goals and to begin the baseline assessment. I am certainly not capable of doing what I used to do 20-30 years ago.I quickly learned that Andrea has the patience, knowledge and skills to work with individuals of all ages and fitness levels. I am very appreciative of Andreas effectiveness with my limited abilities. Andrea is never judgmental about my limitations. I also like that she pushes me to try exercises that challenge me enough to keep me progressing and improving my overall fitness.Andrea has now been my personal trainer for about six months. I have been very impressed with her depth of knowledge. In addition to being a fitness professional giving advice and instruction on exercises, she has provided guidance as a nutritional coach, reviewing my food intake and over the counter supplements. Under Andreas direction, I have lost weight, decreased my body fat and increased my muscle mass. Andrea’s coaching in better nutrition and more effective exercise has improved my overall health. Her guidance helped me to reduce my cholesterol levels and eliminate one of my cholesterol lowering medications. She is encouraging when I succeed, understanding/tolerant when I slip and motivating when I am back on track.She also has developed customized and specific training programs for fat loss, muscle development and strength building. I also like that she welcomes feedback. Because she listens and incorporates my comments into the next series of exercises I know that the programs are tailored specifically for me.She has an encyclopedic repertoire of exercises in her brain! If I find a particular exercise too easy, she has dozens of modifications to that exercise or proposes different exercises to challenge me. If the exercise is too hard, she offers ways to make it manageable while I work on developing the strength to tackle the initial version she suggested. She has incredible observational skills. She can detect my flawed technique immediately and advise me how to make adjustments to make the exercise most effective. She is diplomatic in correcting my technique.I truly enjoy working with her. I highly recommend Andrea as a trainer for anyone in the San Diego area. She is an amazing professional.

Comment: My experience working with Andrea over the past 2 months was awesome! Before hiring her as a personal trainer, I was always nervous about going into the weight room at my gym because I didnt know what I was doing or what exercises would best fit my needs. I was also worried about not using proper form which might lead to injury. With Andrea, I learned so much - now I go into the weight room with confidence and know exactly what Im doing. Ive incorporated many of the exercises she taught me in my daily workouts, some which I never would have used before.With Andrea, its been proven that you CAN lose body fat and gain muscle at the same time! Im so pleased with my results after just a short amount of time.

Comment: I highly recommend Andrea at True Balance Fitness in San Diego. I had cancer last year and was very deconditioned from 18 weeks of chemotherapy and needed to find a personal trainer to help me get back on track. Andrea helped immensely! I have been working with Andrea for almost a year now and feel so much leaner and stronger. She creates work outs that challenge me and push me further than I ever thought I could. She is very educational on posture and positioning so you work out your muscles without injury.After 6 months of working out with Andrea, I started to really enjoy it and gain more energy. I am happy to say almost a year later I feel great and am cancer free. I used to have sore legs after sitting at my desk working, but due to Andreas knowledge of stretching and movement, I have no more achy legs! Go see her - you wont be disappointed.Lynn M., San Diego

Comment: Andrea has brought positive change to my life! I didn’t feel my age so didn’t want to look it. I’ve been working with Andrea over 6 months and have lost 10 pounds and several inches. My pants have all been altered down a size! Andrea as a personal trainer combines nutrition coaching along with strength training, a winning combination for me. I gained the 10 pounds 15 years ago and had not been able to lose it until I met Andrea. She is an asset to all of us in San Diego!

Comment: Andrea is the best personal trainer and nutrition coach in San Diego. Probably on the planet.I have been overweight since childhood and on the weight loss rollercoaster for about 9 years. Each time that I resolved to lose the weight, I would diet and exercise, the pounds would start shedding off, and I’d feel great... until I hit a brick wall. I’d hover around 210 lbs for weeks. I’d lose a pound here, gain two pounds there, and my appetite would get harder and harder to manage the more I’d try to get back on track. Eventually I’d give up and the pounds would return in force.This cycle repeated itself several times until I decided I needed help. I count myself incredibly lucky to find Andrea.Andrea crafted my training and food intake to fit my schedule and my lifestyle. She weaned me off of the bad food I was eating and gave me the knowledge I would need to eat properly. Just as importantly, she guided me in that process so that I changed my eating habits in a way so that I could stick to the new habits. I no longer feel the intense cravings for sweets and junk foods that I once had.She also found my physical limits right away, and then helped me push past them. For example when I first started training with Andrea, I struggled to complete a 5 mile hike around the perimeter of Lake Miramar. Today I can jog around that perimeter without stopping.If you want to lose weight, Andrea is the way to go. I know this because she has helped me to do what I was starting to believe was impossible. Thanks to her training and her education, I feel like I am starting a brand new life.

Comment: Andrea is incredible! I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone in the San Diego area searching for a nutrition coach and or personal trainer. I came to Andrea as someone who had been working out and dieting on their own for two years and simply not seeing the results I desired in regards to performance and or physical development. However in only four months of working with Andrea as my nutrition and exercise coach I have seen three times the results then the cumulative changes I saw in my body and performance from the two years prior. My body fat percentage has dropped (which has been a long time goal and was something I struggled to achieve on my own,) I’ve shredded a few inches, and I’ve gained muscle/strength in very practical ways. My performance has overall enhanced. I find myself able to do things now I never thought I could – like hold a crow pose in yoga class and do a few pull ups without assistance! But the reason I have and will continue to suggest Andrea to friends and family is the time I save by working with her. Andrea creates intelligent exercise programs that are fun to do and that fit around your life. My time in the gym before working with Andrea use to run two hours or more 5 days a week, now I am there for only one hour, three days a week and am seeing FAR better results. This is because she creates routines that are put together wisely and efficiently and that allow for proper recovery. Furthermore Andrea is the real deal when it comes to a thorough knowledge of the human body and its physical/nutritional needs. In so the work you do with her won’t just help you look better, but also feel and move better. Mobility, flexibility, joint health, and other less esthetically driven parts of maintaining a healthy body over the span of your life are often overlooked by other personal trainers. Andrea however is holistic in her approach and has helped me meet esthetic goals without risking the long term health and function of my body. My flexibility and mobility especially in my hips and shoulders have increased drastically since I’ve been following her guidelines for stretching and foam rolling. With the increased mobility came better form and better results as well as an overall more comfortable body when at rest. No matter where you are at: if you’ve been working out for years or if you have never lifted a weight before in your life, working with Andrea is a smart move. You’ll see results, learn skills and tools in regards to nutrition/exercise that you can keep for a lifetime, and you’ll have a supportive and knowledgeable trainer to turn to when you have questions, need a little push to keep going, or just want to celebrate how far you’ve come.

Comment: Ive gotta say - Ive never had a personal trainer before and when I first signed up for sessions with Andrea I was not sure what to expect. I didnt know if Id feel overwhelmed or if Id even have the confidence to do any of the exercises because all of this was new to me.I went in complaining of a sore lower back and chronic IT Band Syndrome both of which seemed to make certain exercises very difficult or some, flat out impossible.Andrea was nothing short of amazing! She knew exactly what things to do to strengthen my core to help support my low back. She understood what IT Band Syndrome was and helped me work around or modify certain exercises which would cause it to flare up.She taught me a series of stretches to do in order to target areas where I was tight.Andrea has been my fitness coach for over 2 years now and she is phenomenal. Not only is she a great coach in the gym but she motivates me to exercise and evaluate my nutritional needs when Im on my own. I have never felt better or more balanced in my body!I think that the thing I like the most about Andrea is her knowledge and her attitude. I feel 100% comfortable performing any exercise with her because I trust in her years of experience. I love her attitude because she has the right blend of fun personality while still being tough! She makes working out FUN and you really feel a sense of accomplishment when you train with her. Shes a no gimmick coach. She does things by the book and places huge emphasis on correct form.She is hands down the BEST personal trainer in San Diego.

Comment: I was fortunate to have 6+ months with Andrea and wish I could move her with me to Seattle! Shes dedicated to her job and to you... as each workout is individualized, each session is different, and she takes a stepwise approach in your progression.As a healthcare provider in sports medicine and orthopedics, I am very particular about proper biomechanics and injury prevention. Good news...Andrea is also very particular and precise! She breaks down each exercise, showing you how to work through it correctly and safely. She is a stickler for proper technique, posture and form so that you can maximize the benefit of each rep, set, etc. She pushes you beyond what you perceive as your limits, but not to the point of suffering.If you are looking for a personal trainer who is a rah-rah cheerleader to get you through, look elsewhere. Andrea motivates by having high expectations, pushing you to work hard through each exercise, and having pointed discussions on your nutrition and lifestyle habits outside of the gym. All she has to do is give you a look, and you know you should and can do better!I completely trust her ability and knowledge, as I felt energized, healthy, strong and motivated...and people around me noticed the changes too. No matter where you are with your fitness goals, having a trainer as knowledgeable as Andrea will help you achieve what you never thought you could!

Comment: I have been working with Andrea for over half a year now, and I am truly enjoying her fitness training services. I came to her a pretty seasoned long-distance endurance athlete, but wanted to work on my strength, speed, and flexibility. She has definitely delivered. Every three weeks, she write me a new set of dynamic flexibility, strength training, and sprint workouts. They work my entire body in a doable amount of time, and I have seen great results. I have gained flexibility, become a faster runner, built lean muscle, and significantly decreased my body fat. She is also knowledgeable about nutrition and has helped me to severely reduce my sugar habit and up my protein intake as a vegetarian athlete.The best part is that Ive discovered how fun it is to lift. As a petite woman, Andrea has helped me feel confident in a weight room, among all the big, burly bros. I cant wait to get back in there and continue to lift heavy and see my strength progress.

Comment: I started working with Andrea in San Diego 3 months after having my second child (my first C-Section). I have always been athletic/active, but after several months of off-and-on back pain I realized I needed to be smart about getting my active lifestyle back, especially working carefully on core strength lost because of the C-Section. Andrea did a thorough analysis of my body/diet and designed a foundational workout program that I could do on my own. I continued to meet with her for an assessment every month and she would switch up my program to make it more challenging as I got stronger. She always did a great job of assessing when I needed to continue where I was and when I needed to push myself. The results have been fabulous. In 5 months I lost 8% body fat and 14 lbs, I am at my goal weight, and continue to progress and have fun!!! I used to run for hours, but these short/smart workouts have been way more effective, and really fit well with my busy working mom life. The other day I went rock climbing for the first time in years and was amazed at how strong I was! Regardless of your fitness level or goals, Andrea is a great nutrition coach, personal trainer, and fitness resource to help you reach your goals.

Comment: Andrea King is an absolutely outstanding personal trainer; clearly one of the best working in San Diego. She is a great combination of skill, toughness, integrity, and warmth and is truly a pleasure to work with. She presents an individualized and challenging stretching and exercise program with reasonable goals set; I am stronger, more flexible and have better balance as the result of her direction and efforts. Having worked with her for more than six months, I can say that her professionalism, extensive knowledge and enthusiasm, combined with her charm and dedication to her work as well as to those with whom she works, provides the perfect personal trainer qualifications. In addition to the workout program she provides, she is a treasure trove of health, fitness and nutrition expertise; she has given terrific advice not just on exercise routines, but also on diet and how to achieve and maintain a healthier lifestyle. I am a sixty year-old woman who resisted working out for a long time, but learned quickly that she actually makes working out both fun and challenging. I’ve lost weight, added inches on body parts where I wanted them added (you can guess what I mean) and lost them where I wanted to lose them (guess again). She is a master of her craft and I give her the highest recommendation possible.Leslie CSan Diego, CA

Comment: Andrea is a wonderful personal trainer! Before I met her, I had no experience with weight training and had been afraid to try out the machines in the gym. At our first meeting, Andrea performed an assessment test to determine my fitness level, strengths, and weaknesses and created a customized training program. Although I had run endurance races in the past (marathon, triathlon, and a number of half-marathons), there were a number of issues with my strength, balance, and flexibility. In the 6+ months that I have trained with Andrea, I have seen a noticeable improvement in these problem areas. It has been exciting to see my weekly progress and I can definitely feel an overall difference. In addition to strength training, Andrea has also been able to customize my training schedule for specific short-term goals. For example, she helped me train and complete the San Diego Tough Mudder race (10+ mile obstacle course). Andrea looked through the obstacle list and assigned relevant exercises and adjusted them to my fitness level.I recommend Andrea as a fitness trainer and encourage others to invest in their health and fitness.

Comment: I sought out a personal trainer/fitness trainer in San Diego 3 months ago and stumbled upon Andrea King on the Web . I was riddled with running injuries and afraid if I didnt start to cross train and build strength, I would not be able to continue to run. Andrea was very methodical in her initial evaluation and made sure she understood exactly what I wanted to accomplish. For me, it was simple, I needed to build up strength in areas where I was injury prone so I could continue to follow my passion for running. After going twice a week for 3 months, Im happy to report that I am injury free and have built a great base of strength (my husband says my legs look great too!). Andrea kept me on track and never varied from my goal of strength training. She encouraged me to work hard but was intuitive when she saw I reached my limit. She taught me a lot of exercises I can do while on business trips and helped me to understand more about the physiology of running and what muscles are most impacted. Andrea is personable and knowledgeable about fitness and I would highly recommend her to anyone, male or female. Thanks for getting me on the right track Andrea!

Comment: Im scared to know of the shape I would or more importantly wouldnt be in without Andreas help! She is so knowledgeable and an excellent training. Im so impressed with the personalization of my fitness plan. Just when I think I cant push myself any harder, Andrea changes things up and finds new limits. Im never bored during workouts and Im stronger than Ive ever been. Best personal trainer in town!
