FIM Testimonials

 

As a 50-something Baby Boomer, I've learned that the secret to healthy aging and a good quality of life in the approaching "Golden Years" is to stay fit and healthy. At Fitness In Motion, it's not just about lifting weights - it's about developing a strong healthy lifestyle.

I cannot thank FIM enough! I started training with D.J. in 2007. Despite having a busy career that takes me on the road weekly, he helped me get in the best shape of my life and then maintain it.

I trust D.J. and his knowledge of personal training and fitness so much that when I found out I was pregnant I continued working out until the day before I had my daughter. He catered the workouts to my changing body and health needs throughout my pregnancy. The entire FIM staff kept me motivated and encouraged! I was right back at FIM as soon as my doctor cleared me after my daughter's birth. Six months later, I was back to my pre-pregnancy weight and in a swimsuit!

FIM for me is not just about a gym and personal training; it is about a lifestyle.

FIM is not just a gym, it's a way of life. When I began working out the thought of a personal trainer was very intimidating, but the trainers and clients of FIM were welcoming and encouraging. Personal training was not something I would have done on my own, but I joined with a friend and was the best decision I ever made. Personal training at FIM changed my body, but it also changed my life. I am now a more confident, healthy, and happier person. I find myself more optimistic and ready to take on whatever comes my way.

Training at FIM changed my life. It gave me the strength and confidence to enter my first bodybuilding competition at the age of 38. Eight years later I'm still a FIM girl, and my time here has shown me that limits are mostly self-imposed. My training has strengthened my mind and my spirit in addition to my body. I know now that whether I get results or make excuses, it's all me. If I don't make my goals it just means I haven't been committed enough, and I need to keep trying. This year I will realize two long-time goals: I am learning to program and am marrying my soulmate. I can truthfully say if I hadn't trained at FIM I wouldn't be doing either. Thanks Team FIM!!!

As a heavy child, I have always been conscious of my weight. Like everyone, I came up with excuses like I was big boned or had a slow metabolism. However, at age 15, I went to "fat camp" in the Catskills and with diet and exercise, I was able to lose 38 pounds in two months proving the adage that calories in equals calories out.

After gaining weight again in my late forties, I read an article in Newsweek about "Super Slow" weight training and decided to seek out a gym to try this method that didn't make you sweat. My wife did the investigating of gyms in the area and came home one day and said that she found the gym for me. She met D.J. and believed in his philosophies and felt that this was a small enough gym that I wouldn't just be a membership number to the staff.Alan Reich Photo

I have been training with D. J. since 2000 and have been going a minimum of twice a week since then. I love to eat and have decided that I will never be my college weight again but I feel confident that no one will look at me and think that there is an overweight person.
