I was preparing myself to have back surgery for adult scoliosis but Sumair asked if I'd let him…read morework on my back daily for a week to see if he couldn't help. Mind you that I had been in physical therapy for 9 months prior to TrainLifeFit seeing me--the pt had helped but pain relief and correct posture only lasted 2 hours after each session. I was pleasantly shocked at the relief Sumair provided, corrected my posture by releasing muscles that were constricted and he explained to me that my weak lats were a big source of my issues. Going into my second session, I'm feeling confident that my correct posture will return and my pain vanished, hoping to avoid surgery.

I've been training with Sumair for almost a year, so buckle in, this is a long, thorough review!…read more Before I came to see Sumair, I had struggled for years with back and hip issues. I had an extreme lack of mobility, and my pain was at about a 7 or 8 every day. I was limping around at age 36 like a much older person. At that point I had tried everything - tons of physical therapy, 4 different trainers, chiropractors, massage...nothing worked. When I began with Sumair, I couldn't do much of anything. I mean, I had zero range of motion and very little strength. If you're feeling self conscious or scared, please don't let that stop you, we have all been there, and I would argue that is where TrainLifeFit really shines. Sumair has built TLF to be a holistic program. What makes it so great is that it is a body/mind/emotions program. What does it matter if you can do a proper push up if your mind has been programmed to believe that you CAN'T do things because you "just don't have the body for it"? Because I am petite and small, that's what I had been told. I'd also been told that my pain was just my "new normal," and to get used to it, so Sumair also had to help me overcome my sad sad sad mental programming about my body. He also taught me about mechanics and how to recognize what was going on with my body. That understanding was reinforced through the homework he gave me, so now I have the ability to identify what's happening and work through it on my own. That's important for the other days when I'm not training with him, and I cannot overstate how much it improved my relationship with my body. I now understand it and know what it needs. So my result is, less than a year later, my pain is at about a 1. I have gained significant strength, stability and muscle mass. My winter coat didn't fit this year because my arms and back had gotten bigger! My mobility is excellent and I have recently begun to run again, an activity I had been told wasn't available for me anymore. But most importantly, I trust my body. I know it is capable of much more than I had been told. I understand it, I have a vocabulary to describe what is happening with it, and I no longer treat it like an annoying employee by getting frustrated when it doesn't do what I say. So you can train anywhere. But if you want a transformation, I recommend TrainLifeFit.

I have been going to Dane's now for ~6 months. I had been going to a Crossfit gym for years, but…read moredecided I wanted to make a change. The class programming at Dane's is setup so that you generally have 1-2 warm up sessions, possibly a strength session, then there will be 1-2 high-intensity sessions, and finally a "fusion" (cool-down/stretching) session. Everyday is different - you'll never do the same boring warm-up or cool-down routine. The coaches are fantastic. For the first half of 2017 I wasn't able to workout after breaking my ankle playing "bubble soccer" (note to self: don't play bubble soccer again). When I finally was ready to get back at it, I decided to give Dane's a try. The coaches were super understanding and helped me find substitute movements when needed. They're quick to make recommendations on form and technique improvements. Class size is generally between 8-15 students, so I rarely have an issue with getting personal attention if needed. They have a decent amount of equipment, but occasionally you may run into issues with too few dumbbells. Classes are not uber competitive. You don't write your time down or number of reps on the wall. You're competing against yourself. They offer several types of classes and the monthly subscription includes them all: Strength, Fusion and Yoga. The members at Dane's are fun and they host a lot of events. These run the gamut from impromptu post workout happy hours, to "Push-Pull" events, to fun charity events like "Burpees for Bros." If you're looking for a great place to workout with good programming, great coaches, and a fun community, then I would strongly recommend giving Dane's a try.

It's a great gym. Not the best but solidly up there…read more Tons of racks and platforms for lifters (and eleiko gear), tons of 'functional' equipment like KBs, TRX, Nordic bench, med balls, dead balls, sleds, etc. would like if they had sandbags tho. Cardio room is fine but cramped with 2 rowers, 1 air bike, 3 skiergs, and like 5 treadmills. There are more cardio machines by the entrance as well. Tons of weights but surprised to not see any 2.5 lb plates. Maybe I just couldn't find them, but I didn't see a single one. Edit: found the 2.5s but they're very few and far between. Equipment is nice and they have enough to get 90% of what you want done, but so many chest machines? I wish we could have more cable towers as the cable section is always cramped. They got a GHD tho which is super cool. Great snacks and merch too.

We're now fitter and stronger than ever -- and that's entirely thanks to Evan's guidance. If you're looking for a smart, kind, and adaptable trainer who truly listens, Evan is the one.

Scheduled a call to review my needs and was able to get into Eric's schedule for a Friday assessment. The gym is quaint and quiet, I've driven by a million times. The parking is a bit odd, a few spots up front where you have to reverse onto S Lamar when exiting...sooo that can be a challenge. They have parking in the rear of the building which is great however there is a single entry way and well, not sure how multiple cars could park and get out. Just know your reverse skills need to be on point. The gym inside has everything you'd need and since it's not open to the public it's just the clients and trainers. That means no waiting for machines and no one looking at you while you're there. Eric is great, he's very easy to talk to and made the whole experience easy. Upon arrival we walked through the questionnaire filled out online to find out the why behind the personal training inquiry. He then did a body scan for weight and fat %, took blood pressure three times as well. Gave a quick tour of the gym and how things work then it was onto the physical movement assessment. Nothing too crazy, range of motion and flexibility tasks. Took an hour for the initial visit and came back the next day to finish a few small exercises then learn the warm up needed prior to sessions. No membership needed as you buy the session in backs, 5, 10, 20 and can be used how you want. Like that there's no long term contract to sign. Session will start in the next week or so with focus on building/repairing the base/functional imbalances before getting into the fun part. Time will tell how this goes, wish me luck!

Nick Deluz has truly changed the way I think about fitness, health, and strength. In the past year…read moreworking out with him as my trainer 3x a week (from February 25-February 26) I lost 15 pounds... now it's May I've lost 20, but honestly, that is only a surface component of the impact I've felt. More importantly, I drink so much less without really noticing, I eat better and I've built muscle and carved out a lean version of me that's much stronger and less achy than the me I've known for so long. I feel stronger and more stable in my body than I have in my adulthood, and it really does make me feel like I have more energy. I think because I do. Nick's approach goes far beyond just "working out." He has helped me improve my stability, mobility, posture, and overall strength in a way that feels sustainable and deeply functional. It's also just so pleasant to work out with him, I never dread the gym because we go hard, but not so hard that you just want to get out of there, and yet the results are still great!One of the biggest changes I've noticed is in my shoulders and neck. I've had long-time sloped shoulders and neck tension that used to bother me by the end of every workday, and now I'm moving through my days essentially pain-free. Nick is thoughtful, knowledgeable, humble, encouraging, and incredibly good at building a program around your actual body, your goals, and your life. I feel stronger, healthier, more confident, and more connected to my body because of his training. I cannot recommend Nick enough!! See my before and after - not that the outside is really what matters most, but how you feel inside.
