(If you want that I suppose you could find a boot-camp trainer elsewhere, someone who provides motivation by screaming at you.) They are patient with your pace and flexible with your time (though do try to be on time, mmmkay?). They also explain why you are doing the exercise they tell you to do, in case you were thinking something seemed unnecessary or weird. I joined to round out my workouts, compared to home training with dumbbells. I did not realize how much of my conditioning and core training was missing! My Fitbit is always physically reminding me that I am surpassing goals on steps and cardio points. I started here because of the location convenience to my home, but it's a great place if you find yourself lacking in volume or consistency in your workouts. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and everyone knows everyone else by name. You'll even get to know the others who are working out with you, if you want.

Pros: * She is attentive, caring, sweet, and super passionate about living healthy! * She works you HARD in the gym and really pushes you to hit your limit in strength, cardio and flexibility. She also keeps every session different so you're hardly doing the same thing every time. * She's an advocate of yoga (also hosts retreats) and sprinkles yoga techniques throughout her training sessions in order strengthen your core. * Julia practices what she preaches, she eats extremely healthy/organic and never wavers from her discipline!

I contacted her via email and with in minutes I received a response. We spoke for about an hour and went over some of my wants and needs, then set up a time to meet at Starbucks. After meeting her I knew that she fit the mold of what I wanted in my choice of picking a Personal Trainer. Roya has a very special way of connecting with me and her clients. She senses what each client needs according to there emotional, mental and physical needs. She is like a Life Coach but with a twist of a drill Sargent (LOL) and that is what I needed- someone to push me when I had no energy or mental stamina to get up and train my body. Each session is unique to my needs. I never know what our session entails. Sometimes we lift and other times we do circuit training. Her knowledge about nutrition is what actually blew me away. I never knew that eating according to my blood type was so vital in living a healthier lifestyle. Bottom line ROYA ROCKS and I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a compassionate, caring and strong trainer. I thank her for changing my life around for the better!

Somehow she has me doing push-ups and pull-ups and squats and lunges, drills and weights and things I had never heard of before meeting her! I have fun while working out and feel stronger than when I was in my 20s! I used to be bothered by back and neck problems but, no more! I can only guess that this is because my back and abdominals are stronger now. Awhile back I had a biking accident and Susan encouraged me to come back to the training and helped guide me along to a complete recovery. And don't be put off by the "middle aged woman" part -- Susan's got a work out for every one! I see her working successfully with people of all ages, levels and sizes. Have fun with one of her great classes - you'll be glad you did!

My first trainer helped me to lose the weight but I didn't gain muscle. The results were. I put the weight back on and more. Roovens has been helping me lose the weight while building muscle. For the first time in my life, I am actually seeing definition in my abs! In addition to that, I travel often, and usually put on 6 plus pounds for the food and drinks. This last trip i gained only 2lbs because I've gained muscle and that burns fast much faster than any diet ! I'm grateful to Roovens for supporting me along this journey. What sets him apart is his professionalism; he is incredibly consistent, reliable, and most importantly he actually listens. He tailored a program that respects my goals while pushing me to achieve results I couldn't get elsewhere. If you're looking for a transformation, look no further.

Team in Training is a program of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society that will train you and guarantee entry into a marathon while you are raising funds to fight blood cancers. Having lost my father to Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma six years ago, I have a very personal investment in Team in Training. As I write this review, I am in the process of raising $2,500 and preparing for the New Jersey, Long Branch Marathon. You meet twice a week with a supportive and enthusiastic training staff. You are assigned a mentor who runs along with you and helps the process go very smoothly. You can even get help raising money. All the while, you're making new friends and getting great exercise and feeling like a superhero in general. And if like me, you've lost someone close to a blood cancer, you get a little healing too. I am grateful to them for all the work they've been doing. Somehow, I know I won't be stopping at one marathon. They have ruined me for the gym, though. But, I can get past that. If you've ever entertained the idea, go ahead and try it out. You won't regret it. Besides, its a great reason to try whatever fatty, calorie laden deliciousness is popular on yelp at the moment. After running 9 miles or so, the guilt just melts away.

Having been a dedicated runner for the past few years now, I decided I wanted to try my hand at becoming a triathlete. I knew of a couple people who had done the NYC Triathlon and swore up and down it was an amazing experience. "Excellent", I said. Now, how the hell do I train for one of these?? The people I knew who did the tri had done so with Team In Training. They sung nothing but praises about the organization, promising that it would be an incredibly memorable experience. I did my research and found that I would have to fundraise a hefty amount (at the time it was $2900, this may or may not change for upcoming seasons). In fundraising that amount, you are given all the coaching you can handle in preparation for the tri. While there were other options such as a JackRabbit training program, or just full on going it on my own like I've been doing with just running, I decided to take my friends advice and join the team. I am *SO* glad I did. TNT was unbelievable from beginning to end. For the 2014 triathlon, we had Scott, Mike, and John as our primary coaches, with several team captains helping them out as well. We met three days a week (one swimming day, one running day, and Saturday mornings for biking/running). On top of that we would receive detailed weekly training instructions for the days when we trained solo. You are also paired up with a mentor who is there for you whenever you have questions or panic attacks. By the time the triathlon rolled around, I was more than ready to kick the course's ass, and kick it I did! I blasted away my anticipated finish time by nearly 20 minutes, and solidified my love for the sport, taking on the title of Triathlete. More importantly, I have made some amazing life long friends out of my teammates. It's now a month since the triathlon and we're all still active on the Facebook page. We really did become a family, and many of us are still meeting up for runs and bikes. Let's touch on the fundraising. I was really apprehensive about raising such a large sum of money. I was also promised I could do it, and sure enough I was able to meet the minimum. You're given a recommitment date about halfway through training that allows you to either A. Guarantee you'll raise the funds, or pay the remaining balance yourself, or B. Back out of the program with no cost to you, but all funds raised go to the organization. Speaking of the organization, you'll be raising funds for LLS to fight blood cancers. During training you'll hear from many of your teammates and special guests about how much their lives changed thanks to the continued research into a cure. What seems like a large sum of money to raise at the beginning becomes completely worth the time and effort in getting there, knowing you've possibly saved someone's life, while participating in a sport you love. You seriously can't lose! Join!!
