I learn so much about nutrition & physical fitness at Mike Duffy's Personal Training. They provide all the tools & education I need to accomplish my fitness goals. I've been training at Duffy's with Mike, Ernesto & CarolAnne for about 10 years, every day worth it. All 3 of my kids have trained here also & love it! Small class sizes and awesome personal training - I highly recommend Duffys. Not to overstate it, but you'll get life-changing results, for sure. #Health&FitnessGuru

Pathetic excuse for a facility. Not a single person wears a mask inside of this building. Making the excuse that this is a "mask optional" business. Spouting lies about how wearing a mask is "bad for your health" and "not good for when you are exercising". Want to know what would be worse for you? Dying from COVID. These are the type of people who are the reason we are still in this mess. Disgusting

I've been an active member of Mike Duffy's for over two years. Every employee I've encountered from the receptionist to the owners-Mike and Carol Ann-as well as the trainers are professional, courteous , helpful and knowledgeable. The boot camp classes led by Ernesto , Cat, and Brian are first rate as well as the personal training classes I've taken with Jessica. She keeps the sessions fun , challenging, positive with incredible results. Incredible team, fabulous environment! Big thank you to ALL-

When I went to Mike Duffys the first time, I felt tired and slow every day. After speaking with Mike Duffy, he gave me hope that I could undo some of the damage I had done to myself by not eating correctly and getting into the proper workouts. I ended up doing work with an amazing trainer Rose and she transformed me!! I highly recommend Mike Duffys because they truly care about their clients!
