I started with Jen about 1.5 years after having our daughter. For me, my body changed significantly…read morewith an 80lb weight gain. Being a mom for the first time and having a physical job was taking a toll on me. I cried at our first meeting because I'd never had a structured workout plan and hated admitting that I didn't really know where to begin. I started with her 2x per week and worked my way up to 4x per week. I was in the best shape of my life when I stayed consistent with my traning. My weight since having a child has been a struggle. I'm 40, it's just harder. Being a busy mom and business owner is stressful but I've stuck with it. What I have gained the most is strength and flexibility that I never had before, even at my lowest weight. Sessions with Jen are one of only thing that I do for myself and I appreciate how supportive and loving she is. Aside from being an excellent trainer she's is just a good person. Kind, compassionate without a judgemental bone in her body. I enjoy my time with her and my workouts. My daughter is now 6 and I continue to see her 2 to 3 hours per week. My health is important and that's why continue to budget in my time with her. Trust me when I say that, you get so much more than just a workout, you get a cheerleader in your corner who will do anything to see you achieve a healthier version of yourself. She goes above and beyond. She is kindhearted and really good at her job. Becoming one of her clients was one of the best decisions that I have ever made. If you are looking for a trainer, feeling self- conscious and don't know where to start, Jen is the person for you. Plus her pup Pickles is such a snuggle bug, if you just need a little extra love at your session.

I have trained with Jenny for over three years now, and always look forward to our sessions! Jenny…read moretruly cares about each of her clients as a person, and does a great job of tailoring workouts based on your current ability and future goals. Besides just being a really amazing human being, she is a motivating trainer who will kick your butt (with consent!) into gear and keep you on a regular, challenging workout schedule. I love her outdoor gym and the wide variety of equipment she has invested in to allow for a huge range of workouts. Not into dumbells today? Let's do resistance bands! I really appreciate that we can adjust as we move through the session - that's so hard to find! It's super cool to look back and see how much my body has changed over my time with Jenny. She's got a client for life!

This review is long overdue, but so well deserved. EWB was an amazing experience. Over the year or…read moreso that I was there, I saw amazing improvements to my physique, posture, strength, and overall health. It was the best shape I'd been in since high school. For starters, the gym itself is small but well-equipped. It doesn't have the bloated feeling of big gyms, yet you can get the same quality of exercise in it that you might there. But what really makes EWB are the trainers. My earlier experience there was with a friend and trainer of mine named Diana, who was super cool and knowledgeable and really helps you enjoy working out. When I went there a couple of years later, I connected with a guy named Jonathan. Super knowledgeable both as a trainer and in anatomy and physiology. He was able to keep my technique safe and appropriate and give explanations for why we did things at all times. I was enjoying my experience so much that I started going up to 4 or 5x a week. That's when I had the pleasure of working with Sara and Jenn. Sara was able to keep working out simple and effective, and she always offered great nutritional advice to make sure that I got the biggest return on my investments. Jenn, meanwhile, gave me much needed help with mobility and provided bodywork to ensure that my body was a well-oiled machine while it endured weekly rigor from both training and work (which was also physical for me). When someone didn't have time to see me, the owner, Nicole, would work with me. She challenges you in a way that makes you feel capable, and I owed a lot of growth in confidence to her during my time there. I would highly recommend this establishment and its personnel to anyone serious about making healthy improvements in their life. I still recommend them to friends and colleagues of mine regularly.

Derek put me into his 10-week program and after going back East for the Holidays feeling better than ever I have not stopped going to Diverge!

These guys really do care and have a passion for their jobs.

I would give Brian White Fitness and Brian White himself 10 stars out of 10 on a scale of 1 to 10…read morewith 10 being the best if the scale on yelp went that high but since 5 is the best then a 5 star rating is extremely well deserved. I contacted Brian via his web site when searching for a one on one personal trainer that worked outside of the normal large public retail gym facilities as I really needed to concentrate on my objective without having to deal with crowds and waiting to get onto a machine a peak hours of the day. In my search for a one on one personal training trainer and personal gym, Diverge Personal Training Gym came up on my Google search. Brian is one of the principal owners of the facility in addition to his affiliation with his own company " Brian White Fitness ". Brian is a very highly respected expert when it comes to weight loss and personal training. This was exactly what I was looking for so I contacted Brian for a consultation. Brian followed up with me immediately and we set an appointment to have a consultation I believe the very next day if my memory serves me correctly.? In our first meeting and consultation, I explained to Brian that I was in a bit of a predicament. I needed to loose a minimum of 10+ pounds and tone up my core strength and muscles in 6-8 weeks time, build more lean muscle mass rather than the body fat I was carrying around much to my surprise. I had somehow started back on the bad track of bad habits, which landed me to where I was when I met Brian much to my own dismay. Brian set me up for our first session for the very next day and from that day and our subsequent training sessions to the current date that happens to be 2 days from the date of this writing and my needed target date, I am happy to report WE DID IT! Not only did I loose that 10 pounds, I actually lost more than my minimum objective, reduced my overall body fat by almost 7%, increased my muscle mass much more than I thought I would have had in me to achieve and continue on a diet plan that Brian personally took the time to write out for me with example menus for each of the 7 days of the week. I stuck to the diet plan and well; the results speak for themselves and I intend to stick to his diet plan as it easily incorporated itself into my lifestyle with foods I love to eat. If self-diligence, discipline, or good old will power just isn't enough or even if you do have those attributes, Brian White would add more to your objective by training you in a healthy manner which does not compromise but rather enhances your overall wellness. Brian changed everything in my life that was not going in the direction I had intended and reintroduced to me a healthier diet, weekly and daily work out session at Diverge (which is a phenomenal facility by the way that Brian helped build with his business partners), Yoga referrals and honestly thinking about life itself and living a well balanced healthier life style. I can tell you that without a doubt, Brian is one of the most resourceful, knowledgeable and well liked fitness gurus as one of the most top rated personal trainers in his profession. Brian is always a consummate professional with personal attention to each and every one of his many clients. This specific personal one on one attention to my objectives helped me exceed my goals, change my life into a healthier direction and introduced me to many of his vast resources and professional affiliations including yoga, Premier anti-aging and aesthetic services and many others. I am eternally grateful and look forward to our continued work-out sessions.

Missy is a miracle worker. Truly. Well, it's not miracles; it's science. But after searching so…read morelong through so many different modalities to find healing and physical comfort, the results I gained, and retained, from just one session sure felt pretty miraculous--so much so I shed real tears of joy. I was a chef in my first life, and just came to accept that foot--primarily heal--pain was a part of life. She had me try some pelvic tilts, and literally immediately the pain that I had endured for 20 years, was gone. Pay her. Do the drills. Get your life back.

I have worked with Missy both in person as a personal trainer and remote as a mobility trainer…read more When I first started working with her on mobility, I was really focused on relieving chronic hip, back and shoulder pain. The first few sessions she helped me understand how my body was supposed to move and where I had to retrain it. After a few sessions, my constant hip and back pain went away. Then my shoulder pain. It is a lot of work that you have to do to get your body to retrain itself but Missy gives you the right tools, guidance and motivation to get there. After a few months, I was working with Missy on perfecting my form on lunges and squats in order to increase my weight lifting. I was no longer focusing on managing pain! I was focusing on improving my strength. If you're on the fence, I highly encourage you to reach out. She is really communicative and flexible with scheduling. She delivers results. And, she is a blast to work with!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Lindsey and Underground Fitness as a whole. She has…read morecreated an environment that is welcoming, uplifting, and incredibly supportive. Shes built such a positive culture where people cheer each other on, celebrate wins (big and small), and genuinely want to see each other succeed. It feels like a community, not just a gym. Working with her has been one of the best decisions I've ever made for myself. She has pushed me in ways I didn't know I needed, but always with compassion, encouragement, and deep understanding. She pays attention to form, mindset, and personal goals. My confidence has grown so much over the past year. I feel stronger, more capable and doubt myself far less then I did before in many ways. If you're looking for a trainer who truly cares, knows her stuff, and a gym that feels fun and motivating then you found it. Highly, highly recommend!

I don't even know where to begin with Lindsey and her amazing gym. Lindsey has established a truly…read moresupportive, kind and encouraging environment. She will push you harder than you have ever been pushed and she believes in you even when you don't believe in yourself. If you are looking for a personal trainer, I cannot recommend her enough. Whether you have been working out for years or you are new, she welcomes all with open arms. She focuses on each individuals goals and caters your training with your specific goal in mind. I began in July and Lindsey and the community in this gym have truly changed my life and pushed me to be more confident in my skin, believe in myself more and have taught me that I am so much stronger and capable than I think I am. She creates long lasting healthy habits that are realistic. She truly cares so much about the people that enter her gym and you become apart of the Underground Fitness family. I'm so happy I found this community. I couldn't recommend a better gym to start your personal training journey!!!

I absolutely love Shelby! I'm about three weeks into my program and so far I've gone from 204 to…read more197lbs.My body is changing before my eyes and my clothes are already starting to fit different and I'm so excited! I've had a few trainers in the past and Shelby has been the only one to offer a realistic training that's meeting my goals. The custom meal plan she provided me is very flexible and also dummy proof. Another big goal of mine was to tone up while keeping my curves and I can see a huge difference in her workouts compared to other trainers. She's very encouraging and always available! Her prices are more than fair too! I've since referred a friend and got my boyfriend to sign up. The training is definitely working and keep in mind-- she builds your workouts specifically to the equipment you have access to, whether you have some or not. I highly recommend Shelby! ...I'll post before and after pictures soon.

I am forever thankful

I've been training with Bret at Move Strong for about six months. I love the workouts... quick and…read morefun but extremely effective. The variety of things he puts in each routine is amazing. Bret has a good eye for subtle changes in posture to get WAY more out of each exercise and he always finds a way to motivate me to push just a little harder. Bret has helped my posture and confidence, not to mention I've dropped a lot of weight and feel absolutely great. The building is somewhat drab on the outside but Bret's studio is very nice. Lots of light, great tunes and the location is very convenient, right on 4th Ave in Hillcrest with validated parking! Bret is flexible and easy to schedule with. Compared to trainers I've used in gyms, I find the individual attention at the Move Strong studio much more enjoyable and I'm getting dramatically better results. I've reached my goals but plan to keep meeting with Bret because I just love everything about the workouts.
