CLIENT'S TESTIMONIALS

“I am 53 years old and have been exercising for many years since my gymnastics days in junior high school. My routine included cardio, weight classes, free weights, and yoga. I started working with Nick 3 years ago because I was not seeing the results for the amount of time spent exercising, and the routine was becoming boring. Nick’s knowledge of biomechanics, training concepts, and his ability to tailor work-outs to individual clients are incredible assets. He evaluates his own programs, is up-to-date on current research, and provides solid rationale in creating programs for clients of any age and fitness level. The work-outs are continually changing and constantly challenging. My strength and flexibility have significantly improved, and I feel fit and in shape and have more energy than ever before!!!
THANKS Nick. “

- Linda Schuberth

“I started working out with Nick a little more than 4 months ago.  I had 6 weeks until I was competing in a fitness competition, and 4 weeks after that I was getting married.  I have been a runner for 10 years previous; I have been consistently weight training for 6 years and competed in a fitness competition in 2002.  I had, also, been a personal trainer for 4 years previously.  Therefore, I was not in bad shape or overweight and I knew how to "workout."  What Nick offered to me was something different.  I had muscle, but very little functionality to it and lacked core stability.  Core stability and functionality being very important to my fitness routine, I decided to take help.  I had never worked with a trainer before; I didn't trust that any other trainer would know more about what worked for my body than I did.   Nick knew a lot more than I did and I turned off my "bodybuilder" mentality and trusted him.  My core was sore, and the detail in my figure showed up, and I was able to carry out all of my moves for my routine in the competition.  Mission accomplished, my figure turned out just as a had hoped.  With a little outside nutrition help, as well.  I continue to go to Nick because I am hoping to tweak some things on my figure and because he makes sure that I can't duplicate these workouts on my own.  I have seen the benefits and results and don't want to go back to my old ways, they did work, they got me this far.  My goals are different now that I've seen a new way. I have always had the motto that ANYONE can benefit from personal training.  No matter who they are or how much they know, there is someone who knows more and can push you harder.”

“I'm 29 years old and work as a Financial Consultant for M&T Securities.  My degree is in Business Administration, Finance.  My job consists of managing the investment programs in six of M&T Bank's Baltimore branches.  My work schedule keeps me very busy and I have very little time to devote to fitness during an average week.  Before I began with Nick, I would workout aimlessly doing what I thought was necessary to improve my muscle tone and strength.  But, I wasn't improving, I was just maintaining.  Eventually I hit a plateau and even gained 10lbs above my normal weight of 190 on my 6' frame during a single month.  In December 2007, I met with Nick for the first time to determine my goals, strengths, weaknesses and limitations.  After a couple of meetings, he devised a program that included exercises and techniques to speed up my metabolism and increase my strength and muscle size.  I used to perform my routine in muscle groups.  Nick explained that my old thinking was that of a bodybuilder's mentality, but not necessarily useful for someone seeking a general level of fitness, as I was.  He taught me that total body movements done with the correct form and at the right pace were key to reach my goals.  The total body movements cut my workout time in half but I always feel like I worked out twice as hard.  Making my workouts this efficient allows me to fit them into my hectic days.  Nick also gave me diet tips to help me achieve my goals.  In just under two months, I lost 13 lbs and improved my strength all around.  We revise my program periodically in order to keep it fresh and interesting.  We have even incorporated movements to improve my athletic ability since I occasionally play various sports.  Nick has been a tremendous motivator in achieving my fitness goals.  He doesn't just tell you how, he teaches you why.  Thanks Nick!”

“I am 72 years old and have been working with Nick twice a week for 4 or 5 years.  He stresses cardio, strength and balance with us and varies the exercise routine so it never becomes boring. As well, he is careful about working around one's physical ailments (knees, shoulders, etc.) so they are not further injured. (He tells good stories too!”
