Shannon Dougall – Lost 28.8lbs

“I’ve been training with Mark for a year now. The results I’ve achieved to date are largely due to Mark’s perfect combination of training methods, individualized programs and challenging yet achievable goal setting. One of the greatest benefits of personal training is that I have an expert to show me the way and map out each session to meet my needs. Mark’s professionalism, extensive knowledge and enthusiastic commitment to his work and ultimately his clients, provides the perfect scenario for success and sets foundations for a new healthier lifestyle. The only draw back would be that you have to prepare […]

Jessica Taylor – Lost 18lbs

  “I was referred to Me First Fitness through a friend about 3 years ago as I was looking to mix up my workout regime. I felt as though I kept hitting a plateau after a certain period of time with other fitness techniques, nothing seemed to be able to stick. So I decided to give Me First a shot by buying a 10 pack of classes through groupon. Everyone was so welcoming and each class gave me a good challenge. I purchased a 3 month membership after that which then eventually lead to an annual membership. Even after developing […]

Sara Bevilacqua – Lost 70lbs

  “After I had my second son in August 2014, I knew that it was time to refocus some time and energy on myself. First introduced to Me First Fitness by way of the very first Wag Jag, I had been enjoying the challenging work outs for a few years already (right up until my 35th week of pregnancy thanks to some awesome modifications from the trainers!). The club had always inspired me – through trainer motivation, the positive energy from the other clients, and the friendships that I have made along the way. Although I was very committed to […]

Mark Vandenberg – Lost 30lbs

  “After joining nearly 3 years ago, I’m still enjoying the many benefits of Me First Fitness. The mix of boot camps offered means there’s something for everyone. The instructors keep things interesting by varying movements and activities within each session. Classes are adjusted to keep things challenging for more the more experienced members, but they make sure it’s not overwhelming for the novice. Personal training services are excellent, there’s an impressive variety of equipment and methods used keeps you on track to improving your strength, cardio, flexibility, etc. I took advantage of a meal plan and dropped 29 Lbs […]

Sian Blair – Lost 20lbs

  “The past year has been one the most difficult of my life. My son was diagnosed with a very serious illness so during that time my only focus was his health. Living in a hospital doesn’t give you the opportunity to eat a balanced diet or exercise. As a result I gained over 20 pounds, suffered hair loss, high blood pressure and high blood sugar. Once my son regained his health I knew I had to make some changes for myself. In the past motivating myself to lose weight wasn’t difficult, however, this time around I just couldn’t get […]
