I can walk 4 plus miles a day, so I thought I'm in good shape. But to get up from the floor for any reason was a challenge. Picking up boxes or lifting anything was difficult. My functional fitness was poor. I don't have the personal discipline or knowledge to workout at a gym, and get results. The staff at Leverage Fitness is friendly and knowledgeable. They lesson to what my fitness goals are. After a thorough evaluation they developed my own personal fitness plan to help me reach my goals. The trainers do an excellent job of demonstrating how to properly do the exercises. They monitor me while

I have been working out with the trainers at Leverage since October 2021. When I started with them I was weak, unstable on my feet, and had terrible posture. A year later, I have lost 25 pounds, Im stronger, Im standing up straighter and my balance has improved significantly.

I look forward to my workout sessions. All the trainers are very positive and encouraging making the time a great experience. TraIning sessions are individualized to meet my unique needs. After a total hip replacement last February, I am gaining back my strength and mobility. No one would guess I ever had an issue.
