The Fitness Together concept is phenomenal. It's like having your subconscious come to life in the form of personal trainers. It's everything you have told yourself to do but couldn't get yourself to do. It's 45 minutes of encouragement, sweat and hard work totally focused on you. It's fun and rewarding. I would vigorously recommend FT to anyone who is serious about building strength, regaining energy or just get back into shape. |

I just knew that I needed a change, I needed to be healthier. Ed and the team at FT helped me understand and realize my fitness goals, and every session gets me closer to achieving them. I'm stronger, more flexible, I have a more powerful core and my overall well-being has received a tremendous boost! The trainers listen to what I have to say and always offer me sound, professional advice. Plus they keep the workouts challenging and interesting. I couldn't be happier! |

FT has helped me overcome chronic back problems, greatly improve my eating habits and overall fitness level, and most surprisingly to me, somehow made me learn to enjoy working out. |

Throughout my life I have experienced the entire fitness range. I was somewhat fearful of starting out as I had experienced the dismissive and sometimes down right rude trainers in “big box” gyms, who didn’t believe a woman was worth their time if she was above a size 2. I soon learned that FT was an entirely different experience. From the moment I walked in I was treated with respect by everyone I came in contact with. The trainer listened to me, gave me credit for knowing my own body, and didn’t’ try to change my goals to fit a preconceived program. Equally important was how knowledgeable they are regarding how to work effectively with my physical limitations. I can say without hesitation that FT has been the best investment in my health that I have ever made. Under their expert guidance I have gone from having difficulty picking up a full laundry basket to being able to lift 75 pounds. I can now walk 2 hours at a time including down hills which had been difficult previously due to knee pain. My ability to sleep all night and drive for long periods is no longer impaired by chronic back pain. Thanks to the excellent staff at FT I am in better shape than I have been in years. I would highly recommend FT to anyone who is looking to improve their health and life. |

I have been looking for help to change and improve my life. I have driven by your establishment “Fitness Together” many times before I decided to actually stop in. I am so glad I did. FT has been encouraging and supportive. I feel so much better already in this short time. Thanks to all. I’ve lost 36lbs in 6 weeks! |

We love working together to reach our Goals! |

| When our journey to fitness began over 5 months ago, we were both in need of making serious changes in our fitness and were equally committed to doing what ever was required to reach our goals. We compliment the FT staff for their commitment to Alana and I as well. Our path to wellness and fitness was charted and monitored every step of the way. The planned eating regimen along with precise training and strength building has resulted in significant weight loss, inches lost and strength gain for each of us. What we have experience and have learned will keep us on a continued path of fitness. They have become family and would as well strongly encourage others to take advantage of the fitness together program. | |

| If you are serious about getting back in shape your personal trainer will be there with you every step of the way. Your goal is their goal. I look forward to my sessions because I know that results are happening and that is what makes it so worthwhile and fun. | |

| For the past several years I have lived a sedentary lifestyle due to a hip replacement and trouble with my knees resulting in my becoming greatly overweight. The orthopedic surgeon said this overweight condition worsened my knee problems. These problems are severe enough to make me a candidate for knee replacement. Consequently he said, I must reduce my weight and strengthen my knees. Since joining FT in October, 2006 I have lost 20 pounds, over 20 inches and targeted exercises for strengthening my knees have reduced the pain to the point that I can now walk downstairs normally. More importantly, at my last retest, I have shifted my body mass from 185 lbs lean muscle and 92.8 lbs fat to 204.5 lbs lean muscle to 59.5 lbs of fat. These changes have increased my energy level and enhanced my overall sense of well-being. I look forward each day to my FT sessions because I am getting results. |

| I’ve struggled with losing extra weight and keeping it off ever since my son was born. I would start working out; then when I didn’t see results right away I would quit. Fitness Together appealed to me because of the one-on-one training and privacy. The trainers are friendly, motivating, and a joy to work with and just when I begin to feel discouraged, they are right there with the encouragement I need to keep going. Now I have more energy and am gaining strength. I can even do push ups! Losing weight has also made me much happier. | |

| Having a personal trainer that is motivating, knowledgeable and can design a fitness program specifically for me has made a dramatic difference in my appearance and body strength. Weight training has helped me change my metabolism so I am burning calories very efficiently. The result is that I’ve lost pounds, inches and I feel great! | |

| I'm taking a few minutes to let you know that I could not be more satisfied with the training I am receiving at your South Salem location. Every "issue" I have expressed to the staff has been responded to in a way that facilitates me in progressing with my workouts. I had problems with my grip failing after a couple sets of dead lifting. At the next session Sheena showed up with straps to aid my grip and it made all the difference. I was able to complete all my sets. I was straining my lower body during the bench press and Melissa provided me with blocks to elevate my feet (I'm short) and I was able to concentrate more on the lift. Really great! Ed always reminds me about my form, which I greatly appreciate. I want the most from my sessions and he is so great about encouraging me and keeping my concentration on the movement. Today was my first day back after being sick with this respiratory bug that's going around. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to do the lifting and pulling. Sheena really mixed it up for me with a treadmill and dumbbell session that got my heartrate up and worked my arms and shoulders. It was a challenging workout and I didn't leave feeling disappointed about not performing up to my ability. Very Creative!! You have assembled a very dedicated and committed staff. Congratulations and thank you! |
