My wife and I decided to prioritize our health this year after a scare in 2025. Stepping into the…read morefitness lifestyle after 13 years of being sedentary came with many challenges, but we both wanted to do things the right way so we created sustainable, healthy habits without injuring ourselves. We locked in our sleep and recovery, our nutrition down to every vitamin and mineral, and we decided Revision would be where we lock in our fitness with a personal trainer.
This was the best decision we could have made. We started with Heather, a certified physical therapist, who walked us through the first few weeks, ensuring we were ready for the training ahead. Thanks to her careful attention to my previous injuries, and ensuring we understood the basics of mobility, we transitioned to Gabe, who we've been working with since March 2026 an average of 4x per week.
Gabe's a fitness nerd, with a fantastic sense of humor, and a keen attunement to his client's needs, not just for the regiment to ensure progression, but in ensuring that he motivates us in the way that we would most likely respond to. His program was difficult yet sensible, achievable, and most importantly, motivating. Every movement was discussed in thorough detail with scientific evidence backing the form with reasoning. I appreciated this attention to detail, because my goal was to be informed. We needed to understand why we were doing an exercise a certain way, why we chose to start with this exercise vs that, his thought process on how he structured the workouts, so we would be successful one day planning and executing it ourselves.
It's been 7 months since we started at Revision, and together we've lost 116 lbs, I've went from 30.3% body fat to 12%, we've increased our strength by multiples, and most importantly, have gained the confidence to walk into any gym and execute on our goals. My wife would murder me if I shared her results, let alone photos, sorry ladies, but she looks amazing and feels fantastic.
Anyways, as we transition to working out on our own, we're going to leverage Gabe for 1x session per week over the next couple months to continue calibrating our execution and ensure we're set up for success.
This has been an extraordinary experience. I don't say that lightly. Dusty, Carolyn, Heather, Kelsey, Jules, and Gabe all contributed to our experience, and we would like to thank them, wholeheartedly, for building an ideal environment for us to find continued success.
