Success Stories
Josh - Age 32
About 4 years ago I started training with Denise and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. Her contagious positivity, encouragement, and determination have helped me chase not only my goals in the gym but also formulate aspirations on the outside. Her ever changing routines and exercises keep me motivated, interested and moving forward. I have gained not only a trainer but life coach and friend, thank you for all you do Denise.
Mary - Age 72
Before my retirement, I was a sheet metal worker and considered myself in good shape. I enjoy gardening and doing yard work and I consider myself very handy ( changing tires, hanging ceiling fans) etc.. As I began to age, I started to notice that these things that I enjoy were becoming more difficult to do. My strength and stamina were not like it used to be. I decided it was time to work on myself. I had also been gaining weight gradually. I started working with Denise and the weight is coming off, I’m down 16 lbs and 12.5 inches overall. My stamina has improved and my strength allows me to do everything with ease now!”
Cindy - Age 55
Slim for most of my life, give or take a couple pregnancies…and then the OMG moment: I’d gained weight that I needed to lose. Coming from a family with a history of obesity, it was always a concern of mine. However, life happens. My gradual weight gain began when I hit 45 and moved twice. Stress-eating and complacency set in. I quit a steady workout routine and the next thing I know it’s the beginning of a new year and I’m turning 55. We recently moved to Florida in preparation for retirement and were enjoying our new lifestyle when my husband took a picture
of me. I had avoided scales for a few years because I already knew by buying the-next-size-larger that I was gaining. That picture was an eye opener, as was finally getting on a scale: I’d gained 50 lbs. Wow—depressing, but I decided enough is enough.
I needed help and that help came in the name of Denise Scott. She set me up with training program. I’m now doing some form of cardio 6 days a week, along with a strength training plan Denise developed. That plus her nutritional advice, encouragement, support and motivation, and I’ve lost the weight, 36 inches overall, and 5 pant sizes. I turned 55 in jeans I wore in college, how crazy is that!
My doctor was so pleased, and saw no need for continuing certain prescriptions. I feel better and younger, both physically and mentally, than I have in years and all due to the help and support of Denise, who also works around any injuries or allergies you may have. If you are on the fence about taking this step, don’t be, you will not regret it!
Tim - Age 67
Do yourself a huge favor and train with Denise. She’s a real pro and she gets you real results! I’ve worked with trainers in the past years and while they were somewhat helpful, the results didn’t justify the cost.
As a result I worked out on my own. I did the same things, week after week, with no real improvement or change. After two knee replacements and a couple of medical procedures, I was left with tight hip flexors and an unsteady gait, leading to weight gain and low energy. Then I met Denise, and everything changed. Under her guidance, my hip flexors have loosened up, my gait is steady and balanced and I have no more problems climbing stairs. My muscle mass has increased, and I’ve lost body fat. I sleep better, I feel better, and I have more energy. If you’re thinking about using a personal trainer, call Denise. She’ll change your life for the better!
Jenn - Age 38
They say a journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step. I have always had some sort of running routine, but for the past two years, my running was not as effective as it had been. I started gradually gaining weight, and when my clothes no longer fit, I knew something had to change, and it had to be real.
I started going to the gym and I signed up for a personal trainer for the first time and met Denise. She helped me understand the importance of strength training. She taught me that strength training helps burn more calories all day long than cardio alone.
So in addition to cardio, I needed to incorporate strength training into my workout routine. Denise developed a workout plan, and taught me proper form & technique. She also helped me to understand how my eating habits affected my weight loss goals.
I cautiously begin this new experience, not really knowing what to expect. However, as I developed new habits with my workout, my thought process and my food, I started to realize something amazing: my body enjoy this experience! My muscles were becoming defined, my skin clearer, I was sleeping better, and the scale was moving! Denise pushing me to go a little further at each workout was a huge motivation. I also discovered an inner strength that I didn’t realize I had.
I am happier, healthier and more energetic. I realized it is not a race to a finish line, but a journey to being healthy. Somewhere along the way I realized I will always be on that journey toward a healthy me. I also realized that I am in competition with no one. I am eager to continue this journey toward health, one step at a time, for a 1000 miles and more.
Challenge Yourself!
“You are not here to fill space or to be background character in someone else’s movie. Consider this: Nothing would be the same if you didn’t exist. Every place you have been-everyone you have spoken to-everyone you’ve surrounded yourself with-everything would be totally different without you. Literally. We are all connected and affected by the decisions and even the existence of those around us
