Doug has worked hard with me over the past 10 months to help me set realistic and achievable lifestyle and fitness goals. I’ve enjoyed his progressive and holistic approach to fitness, as it continually challenges me to move in a forward, positive direction. Doug’s unique perspective and understanding of the mature male, coupled with his professional and thoughtful teaching approach, motivates me to work harder than I have with other trainers. The services that Doug provides goes far and beyond the actual cost per session.

“Man, you are truly my inspiration.”

“Doug is an excellent trainer. I really appreciated how he took the time to really understand what kind of rountine worked for me. I have been going to the gym for over 25 years and it was just getting boring. Doug’s indepth knowledge of how specific muscles were impacted by various exercises really made me see working out in a different way. Training with him helped me get over the ‘bored’ hump and I look forward to working out again.”

“Thanks so much for your support and expertise. I truly admire your high level of professionalism and deep knowledge of important fitness issues and strategies.”

“You’re always on time and always spend that extra bit of time to help me out, or send me information. I appreciate that.”

“In our very first session, Doug taught me more about exercise than I had ever known!”

“I truly appreciate your thoughtful approach to helping me get stronger. I haven’t felt this strong in years and I can go up and down stairs without pain which is amazing. I can run again – which I haven’t been able to do since 1988. So THANKS!”

“The work-outs are fun and I have the feeling that in the one hour session, we are doing four times as much as I would have been doing this on my own. Doug is taking me to levels I have not dreamed I would ever be. I would recommend him to any of my friends. In one year, he has managed to reverse my aging process and has given me the discipline to have a structured, well balanced life style.”

You don’t know how good it feels to exercise regularly. I love the workouts. The stiffness in my shoulder has completely vanished from the exercises you taught me. I feel so powerful while running and skiing. I can’t imagine getting older and not being fit.

Doug has become a great personal ally in reaching my goal of “fit for life at 45″!   He is not only extremely personable and knowledgeable but also has oodles of patience.   He consistently goes the extra mile for me when I have questions, need motivation or just can’t get the right form and technique nailed down.

“Congratulations on getting the doc(tor) enthusiastic about exercising again!”

“Compared with other Personal Trainers I see around town, none match your mature approach, your understanding of my needs or the results I get from the programs you put together.”

“…in large part to my having worked with you. I don’t think I could have felt confident enough going in if I wasn’t feeling stronger in my body.”

“Earlier this year (2011) I began noticing my workouts were no longer challenging and I needed an exercise programme to help address the physical changes that where (are) happening. I began watching trainers and seeking out a professional to create a new balanced workout.

Doug agreed to do some research and came back with a work out for my physical needs. The workout has made me stronger and I see the difference. His workout design has taken my physicality into consideration; yet pushing and challenging me. I am grateful for our time together and his passion to assist me in becoming healthier.”

“I learned so much about proper form in my workouts. All of a sudden I see muscles that I thought I’d been working, but I guess not.”

Thanks very much for this Doug! I appreciate it. Not all trainers make up a work-out sheet and then share it afterwards. I guess it’s a business decision for them or something… it is a true pleasure to work with you. The things I have learned from you (and used/felt muscles I haven’t felt before) is like no other trainer. I also really like your focus on me, as a client, during that hour. You notice things that others have not.
