Before I was referred to Ben by my Naturopathic Doctor, I was fat, sick, tired and at a loss for what to do next. I knew I needed more than just a trainer - I needed someone that understood and could evaluate my overall health and lifestyle. He evaluated my blood work, adjusted my supplement plan, and dug deep into my diet, sleep habits and stress triggers. His approach is highly individualized and very different than a typical trainer that will just crush you in the gym. He focuses on healing the body first so that you can handle the activity required to build muscle and burn fat. Sure, I still have a long way to go but I can honestly say that a couple months in to my program, I felt healthy, refreshed, and stronger! Fast forward three years: I feel heathy (my blood work agrees), have great energy, and I am stronger than I have ever been. Oh and by the way, he is great at crushing my in the gym....but my body can handle it and my recovery is great. You won't find anyone that is more qualified and educated to address any need: fat loss, overall wellness, or performance. I could go on and on but I think you get my point.... read more

I played competitive rugby for close to two decades and I never had to worry about my diet; once I stopped playing I had no idea how to eat healthy. I finished playing and subsequently finished working out too. I lost a lot of muscle and turned it into fat. I tried reading books and seeing other dietitians, but nothing was working. Ben and I started off with a reasonable diet and exercise mix that fit my body type--rather than the homogenized approach of the other diets I tried. As a result, I lost twenty pounds in the first 10 weeks and have lost another five in the last 8 weeks. Ben made it easy for me to eat and exercise, and the best part is that I've kept all the weight off. In 10 weeks (between Thanksgiving and Christmas nonetheless) I lost four inches in my waist, and more than 5% of my body fat. Maintaining the results has not been difficult because Ben educated me on the different foods that I ate that were causing my issues. I have eliminated a lot of trouble foods from my diet and as a result the weight has stayed off. read more

I am 60 years old and have been working out and exercising for the past 30 years. I was in decent shape and good health, but carrying 10 extra pounds and feeling like I had hit a plateau, working hard with not much to show for it. I was referred to Ben Brown because I needed a jump start, a new approach to health, wellness and fitness. I got it from Ben. Within a few months Ben had me on a whole body workout, a stretching routine and a cardio plan that got my body where I wanted it, but more importantly, he changed my eating habits and diet, and gave me the health and wellness feeling I was needing. I am now gluten free (actually, gluten light) I avoid processed food and I eat good carbs, good fats and protein, and I go organic when possible. I lost 10 pounds and I have not gained it back. And it's been two years. I feel great, I enjoy what I eat and I love my workouts. Ben didn't give me a diet, or a workout, he gave me a new approach to lifelong wellness and fitness. Thanks, Ben! read more

I had the pleasure of being trained by Kaitlin for just a little over six months. I needed motivation, and someone to steer me in the right direction in order for me to meet my fitness goals. She really listened to my personal goals (as vain as they might have been) and helped me accomplish my goals while making me so much stronger. I was so confident and I truly enjoyed getting up super early to workout with her. She pushed me when I needed it and provided me encouragement along the way. I truly cannot thank her enough for the patience while training me. I have never felt stronger, and more confident as I did when I worked out with Kaitlin. At 34 years old my body fat decreased significantly and my body looked better than when I was 21! For anyone looking for a dedicated, smart, intuitive all around amazing trainer I highly suggest Kaitlin at Body Systems AZ. Ben and his staff are extremely knowledgeable and professional. Thank you! read more

Like many people I have struggled with my weight for quite some time and despite continuous workouts and diets have been unsuccessful. I have been fortunate enough to workout with Ben and take part in his dietary and personal training program. Ben is incredibly knowledgeable and explained to me many mistakes I was making, both dietary and with my workouts, that have been hindering my goals. Since working out with Ben I have begun seeing results faster than I have had with continuous months at the gym and have had improvements in my energy levels and sleep quality. Ben and all of his staff have been the most knowledgeable and personally dedicated people to wellness, nutrition and physical improvement that I have ever come in contact with (which trust me has been a lot). I could not recommend them more. read more

I was diagnosed with Celiac, a gluten intolerence desease. I needed help in learning what foods would be best for my digestive system and what kind of supplements to take to help balance my diet. I actively searched the Phoenix area for a nutritionist and found many but narrowed the list to four. After interviewing each one, without question Ben was my choice. His depth of knowledge is impressive not only of health in general but fitness, nutrition and even my gluten intolerence. Ben is a genuine person who is truly interested in helping you. I honestly have never felt better. If I could give Ben an award it would be an OSCAR thats how good he is. Maybe I'm being a little dramatic here but the point is...he is THE BEST...Period. read more

Ben is the gold standard when it comes to real life applicable sports and performance nutrition. He takes the time to understand your individual habits and preferences, and then outlines and optimizes positive achievable lifestyle changes. Ben isn't about a fad diet or quick results as much as he helps to bring understanding and education for a holistic approach to healthy living and long term habits. I had amazing results with Ben structuring my nutrition and training plans. After his programming, my approach to training and what I put in my body has changed dramatically, I wouldn't be living the healthy lifestyle I am now without Ben. He's the best! read more

Body Systems provided me with a highly individualized plan set for my body type and current goals. They were compassionate and sensitive to my hesitation of never lifting weights before. I was amazed at the results, the amount of time I achieved them in, and my ability to perform excercises over time I thought I would never be strong enough to do. Trust me you will not find a more knoweldgable trainer in both training and nutrition. If you are not training with them you are missing out on being in the best shape of your life. read more

I came to Ben last summer and told him that I wanted to lower my body fat. He was very positive on what to do so I signed up to train with him. Ben designed work out, nutrition and supplement programs for me. After seven months of training with Ben I feel great, lost weight and 5 % body fat plus put on muscle. I am continuing working with Ben towards my goal and I am positive that I will achieve it with him. I would highly recommend Ben. He is a total professional. Ron V. read more
