I went to see Dr. Matt Wiest at The Center of Movement after he was at my gym one afternoon…read moreoffering massages to people who just finished working out. I'd had pain in my lower back for years that was steadily getting worse, and it was to the point that I had already decided I needed to do something about it. I'd seen two different chiropractors in the past and gotten some short term relief, but it didn't fix the problem. So the truth is that I didn't expect much from this new guy either, but I figured it couldn't hurt to try. (I had gotten a free massage so I felt like I had to do a follow-up with him.) Within two visits, Dr. Matt had the cause of my pain figured out and gave me some exercises to do to take some of the workload off of my lower back. After the second week, I was cautiously optimistic that my back was feeling better. After about four weeks, I knew for certain that it was actually working. It's been about two months now, and my back pain is drastically lower. Most days it's non-existent, and that is because Dr. Matt took the time to figure out what was causing my back pain and teach me what I needed to do to alleviate it. It's not magic - it takes work on my part as well as going in for adjustments, but it's easy to do the work when I can feel the results. In addition to being a good doctor, he's a friendly, fun guy and the rates are extremely reasonable as far as I am concerned. I'd refer anyone I know to him without hesitation.

The best fitness experience of my life. I've almost been here for 3 years now. The CrossFit…read moredefinition is performing "functional movements that are constantly varied at high intensity." This CrossFit box brings all the best: challenging workouts, small class sizes (limited to 12 people), and a supportive community. To be honest, I was beyond intimidated to start classes here. I postponed it for a year to 'try and get into better shape'. I thought CrossFit was for elite athletes only & I was far from that. I eventually joined. What I found is an amazing community of people who were interested in being the best versions of themselves. I can clear my mind, follow the movements & get a great workout within a short period of time. Every workout is challenge that humbles me & makes me dig deep. Another thing I love is that I'm in & out in 1 hour. That's it. No more 2.5 hours at LifeTime Fitness fighting for a locker, fighting for a spot in class and showering. Each class consists of a warm-up, lifting series (15 min.), and workout (typically 20 minutes or less). It's not a cheap gym, but you get your money's worth. The instruction is personal, form is monitored closely, and everyone here knows your name. You are a part of something. You are held accountable (your friends will ask where the hell you've been if you don't show up on Monday). I'm in the best shape of my life, I look better at 31 years old than I did at 21. This CrossFit box is owned & operated by Jordan Below. He coaches most of the classes & has a couple other certified coaches help out as well. Everyone is here to help support your personal goals & Jordan is happy to offer advice and support with nutrition as well. I can't imagine working out anywhere else.

I have been training with Lenora for a couple of months now and feel like the luckiest person in…read morethe world to have found her. I did a ton of research when l started looking for a personal trainer and interviewed several trainers in person. While they were all great in their own right, Lenora stood out among the rest. She has a solid education backing her training up and truly approaches it in a holistic way, which was exactly what I was looking for. So far she has helped me greatly! We are working through some postural issues I have and she is really great during every session making sure we are doing the right exercises to help strengthen and balance my body and changing something if it isn't working. Lenora really knows her stuff. She also helps me out nutritionally and is very educated in this as well. She makes workouts fun, but also kicks your a$$. She is very good at helping you learn to push yourself and cheering you on the whole way. She finds out what really motivates you and utilizes that in your sessions. She's firm, yet gentle and nurturing at the same time. Basically, she is amazing. She is changing my body, mind and spirit....my whole life! I will be continuing to work with her for a while. She is also guiding me through training for a 1/2 marathon. I have never been a runner, but with her help, I am becoming one...at age 34! I have also lost weight, toned up, gained confidence, etc. I HIGHLY recommend Lenora of Holistic Personal Training. You will not be sorry!

She has helped me achieve those goals and MUCH MORE. She used her training as a therapist to guide me through a time when I was in a toxic unsafe work environment and trying to keep depression at bay. She used her body understanding to help me get my body structurally aligned. She used her training in nutrition to assess my specific needs and advise me. I could text her a nutrition question and know her answers were based on the latest research! On top of all her technical skills, she is one of the kindest, high integrity people I know. Anyone would benefit from working with and knowing Lenora. Although she has moved across the country, I still have a weekly check in with Lenora that helps me to keep on track. Her advice is always spot on!

This review is based on a one week free pass where I attended three different classes. I will say…read morethe instructors go out of their way to be super friendly and learn your name right away. Then while you were working out they will say things like "nice job Corey!" Also the other people attending class were very peppy and :-). The classes are 30 minutes which I didn't think was long enough. Part of the way they saved time was having you warm up while they showed you how to do the moves. That was way too much for my brain to handle, trying to learn 10 exercises while doing leg lifts. It was typically some sort of circuit format. One day it was do 10 reps of all 10 exercises the first time, eight reps the second time around and so on. Another day the exercise was timed for 40 seconds. Some of the exercises were very basic, do a Burpee, but others were more complicated and it was hard to remember exactly how to do. I will say, every time I asked for help, they were right over there. But this was a noon class with eight students, I can imagine it would be more difficult to get individual attention with 25 students. Also I noticed some of the people were doing the exercise wrong and they weren't being corrected. I was told they won't correct you if you're doing the exercise wrong but it still getting you a good exercise. This place seems to be targeted to people who are not in very good shape vs people who are already in shape. There are plenty of before and after pictures on the wall to attest to this. They do a before and after picture for their 21 day challenge. But I must say some of my friends who are going here (who are in shape) enjoy it very much. I went to another place where they had videos of the exercises and it was nice to be able to look up and see how to do the exercise. This place is $167 a month. You can try it out free for three days, they had a special try it out for a week for free, they also have $100 off your first month promo right now.
