Aimee B.

Three months of doing various at-home exercise videos on YouTube 5x/week didn’t accomplish much of anything.  Six weeks with Amy and I’m seeing results and feeling better than I’ve felt in years.

 

I am blown away by the quality of the service I’ve received from Elite and by the results I’ve seen in just 6 weeks of VIRTUAL training with Amy! It’s clear that these folks care – about the quality of service they provide and about their clients. From the first session with Dave, who laid out for me how virtual training would work, to the review of my medical / previous injury history, my diet and eating habits, my sleeping patterns, and my own personal goals, to the supplement regimen that Dave recommended (catered to me!), I felt cared for and supported every step of the way.

 

I was a bit skeptical at first about training virtually…I had very little equipment of my own and I worried about how well this could work, not being there in person. Turns out, Elite really makes virtual training WORK. They sent me a bag of equipment to use at home:  over-the-door resistance bands, sliders, mini-resistance band loops, a foam balance block, push-up bars, TRX-style suspension straps, a yoga mat and even a tripod for my phone!  All I had to do was get a few dumbbells.

 

Amy has been a fantastic, supportive trainer.  She encourages, challenges, and motivates me. Most importantly, she clearly knows her stuff and has a real gift for communicating how to correct form and make physical adjustments – not an easy task, over Zoom, but she nails it. She’s always watching, giving me feedback and asking me questions. Training with her is really fun and I look forward to every session.  

 

The best part?  In 6 weeks (training 3x/week) I have made progress I never would have thought possible in such a short amount of time:  I’ve increased my plank hold from ~1 min to 4 min. + 24 sec!!!!  I’ve dropped nearly 10 pounds…I’ve gone from being able to do ZERO “real” pushups to doing 3 sets of 7!  I feel strong and stable, I’m sleeping better and feel more alert when I wake up, and I can see muscles starting to emerge in places where there hasn’t been anything for a long time.  :)

 

If you’re feeling iffy about virtual training, I’m here to tell you it works!  At 50 years old, I cannot believe the positive changes that have taken place so quickly!  I couldn’t be happier or more grateful for this opportunity to be in such great hands and to have an entire program catered to my body, my abilities, my health and my goals.  Thank you Amy, Dave and Elite!

I’ve been going to Elite Personal Training for a few months, Adriene has change my life. Before starting at Elite, I thought I would never be able to do some of the things I do now. I have degenerate disc disease and had three cervical fusion in my neck which caused me to need dozens of steroid injections. The injections caused me to gain weight rapidly and my ability to safely work out. I also had high blood pressure. I had to take blood pressure medication daily.

I no longer have High blood pressure nor do I require blood pressure medication. Since starting with Elite, I have not only been losing weight but I am stronger than I have ever been in my life. Adriene is such an amazing trainer and works with you every step of the way. Elite has completely changed my life and I can’t thank them enough.

I had my annual physical yesterday.

My doctor asked me, “what are you doing?”

He said, “I am happy to tell patients your age that they are doing well because they did not go backwards too much. It is so nice to see someone who’s health is actually improving at your age!”

  • Your down 10 lbs.

  • We have cut out two medications and down on the other two for your hypertension.

  • You BP is normal.

  • You look happy.

 

Whatever you are doing please keep doing it.

 

Thank you EPT.

I really love working out here. I train with Amy three days a week. I have always had an all or nothing attitude towards fitness, alternating between periods of being sedentary to overdoing it. This was ok until my 40s. I was getting heavier and less healthy from not exercising and pain and injuries from overexercising. I needed to reshape not just my body but my attitude towards exercise and how to incorporate it into my life in a healthy and consistent manner in order to improve my overall health and well being. I knew I needed to ditch the group fitness classes that were one size fits all and do something personalized. As a rehabilitation doctor the idea of going to a place that is run by a PT was very appealing, especially since i had neck and shoulder issues and didn’t want to make that worse. Dave did an evaluation and I was very impressed by his sincerity. It’s obvious that he really has a passion for helping people improve their health and function. I started working with Amy a little over a year ago and I adore her! She knows her stuff but she also knows me and can always pick up on how i’m feeling and how to best guide me on a given day. I have had some nice victories, lost a nice bit of weight, went from pre-diabetes to normal A1C, decreased my overall pain, have more energy, a more stable mood and a clearer mind. Best return on investment ever!

9 months of training 3x a week has proven to be the smartest decision for my injury recovery and continuing overall wellness! I’m thrilled to write this review and thank the team at Elite for their part but a special thanks to Zack who works with me one on one. He creates specific programs for me after testing and goal checks, including nutrition sessions and always slips in fun facts. Before I started my training at Elite I had been to several physical therapist elsewhere for over a year, I was feeling defeated. My shoulder injury was impacting my day to day routine creating limitations that were affecting my mental health. Today I am strong mentally and physically, I put a lot of energy into my wellness because Zack has put a lot of energy into helping me. He’s extremely supportive, understanding and really pushed me through my fears when I was struggling. I would recommend any of the trainers at Elite, they are all top notch and bring so much value to health and wellness. If you have any interest in making one of the smartest decisions- don’t hesitate call Elite personal training and fitness solutions!

STEVE C.

When I started at Elite I was in a bad place physically. My first day was with Dr. Dave and Amy, I never expected such a thorough and informative evaluation with a path forward. It has changed my life, their scientific approach, encouragement in training, and nutrition advice has given me results I never expected to come so soon. I am pleased to say I am approaching 20lbs + in weight loss, getting stronger every week, more flexible and the pains are going away also starting to- you know fit in the clothes you spent a fortune on you still hold on to …..
I owe it all to my trainer Amy she keeps me informed of my progress with her record-keeping and the In-Body reports that are impressive to say the least, she keeps me focused, has my workout planned, knows your limits however her workouts are tough but you feel great after each one and want to come back for more, Amy Rocks !!!

Elite Personal Training is the BEST!! The initial evaluation is unparalleled and you can tell from the moment you meet the team they have your best interest at heart. Their goal is for you to achieve your goals in a positive environment. Elite is truly top notch!

Jim F.

I have worked with Amy for two years now and have experienced the quality of her training and her encouragement first hand. Amy is prompt to our appointments, is always prepared and does a great job of “mixing up” sessions that are both challenging and fun. She is very diligent about ensuring proper technique for each element of our training sessions. The results, for me, have been weight loss, improved body shape and increase in confidence. I enthusiastically endorse her talents and the benefits she will bring to her employer and her future clients.

Lynda A.

Elite Training is a unique experience compared to other gyms. All the trainers are very knowledgeable, not only in personal training but also in nutrition and supplements. One-on-one training works. There isn’t another place I’ve been to where the trainers really care about your results. They make you feel validated and expect you to be accountable.

Bryan

Recently I had a full comprehensive evaluation with Dave and Lynette. They were very professional and address some of my weaknesses that I never knew I had! As someone who constantly wants to improve the only body I have this was excellent news. I can’t wait to continue working with EPT to make my weaknesses into strengths.

I have always been active, and for the most part worked out regularly. Covid threw a monkey wrench into my early morning gym routine, so I bought a Peloton Bike. My historic focus has always been on cardio, figuring that if I was sweating that had to be a good thing. The bike is great for that, but being in my 60's I knew that I needed more. In the past, when I would incorporate weight training into my routine I always ended up hurting myself at some point since I was not doing things quite right. I started working out at Elite going on five months ago and it has been a great experience. Now when we're doing strength training I know that I'm being instructed on the correct way to do the exercise. Plus, I don't have to plan out anything. I just show up and do what they tell me to do. I've been introduced to core and balance exercises that I never knew existed. Just when you've gotten the hang of one exercise the trainer introduces a "progression" that adds more difficulty to the move, so you are always moving upward. The upfront evaluation and ongoing testing provides both a "base line" of your fitness and feedback on your progress. The Trainers are all knowledgeable and friendly as well. Lastly, when you're working out on your own it's easy to skip a day, but knowing that you have someone that is counting on you to show up is extra motivation each and every time. My attitude is that there are 24 hours in each day, so why not take a single hour 2-3 days a week and do something good for yourself, and there is no better place to do that than at Elite.

Joe F.

15 years ago, I retired from the USAF and changed from a very active lifestyle to a very sedentary one. Now at 60 years old, I’ve paid the price. At my heaviest, I was 60 lbs. more than when I retired. Lots of aches and pains due to old injuries and arthritis. I tried my best to lose weight and “get fit” on my own, but never quite got to my targets. I was constantly in pain and miserable.


Both Dr. Dave’s Nutrition & Supplement Counseling and Adriene’s personalized fitness training have improved my life tremendously. In just 2 months, I feel better than I’ve felt in 15 years, and I’ve lost weight! They were able to work around my existing Arthritis issues and develop a tailored plan for my fitness training.
I highly recommend you stop in and see for yourself! This team is great!

Margie S.

I need to tell you how amazing Tunde is, I so look forward to doing this, he has a gentle nature that makes you feel all his focus is on you, this already has been an experience beyond anything I have ever done. I'm moved emotionally, and spiritually, I already know my depression episodes are not as frequent. Dr. Dave this man is blessed, and I'm blessed that he is a part of my life. 

Randy M.

Elite lives up to its name - this organization is definitely at the top!

After years of being very active, I was unable to do the things I used to be able to do as a result of multiple knee injuries. I continued to be unhappy with my limited mobility, flexibility, core strength, overall malaise and decided to pursue what turns out to be a “life-changing decision” - I started personal training and nutrition with Elite.

My goal was to reduce the ongoing knee pain, increase core strength and flexibility. After several months of targeted training with Adriene, not only have I dramatically increase my core strength and flexibility, but also my balance and mental acuity. There has been an overall positive shift in mind, body, and spirit.

While the focus is one-on-one personalized training, Elite provides an encouraging and fun environment and for those that are interested a healthy and competitive atmosphere.

Thank you to the team at Elite for helping me to achieve my goals!

Dan S.

Zack Younis is a very knowledgeable trainer with a background in physical therapy, which for a middle-aged man was a bonus, allowing an out-of-shape 48yr old man to get back into shape and never injured
myself in the process.  He has a great ability to support and provide a strategy to achieve whatever his
client is looking to achieve. He then executes the plan in a great balance of pushing his clients further
than they would believe they’re capable, but always in a safe and careful environment. He is also very
good about making suggestions but never pressures you.  When we first started, he offered a meal
plan/nutritional package if I wanted.  Being over 50 lbs overweight at the time, I declined and he never
pressured me. It wasn’t until 3 yrs later when I was ready to change what I ate, I told Zack I was ready
and 10 months later, with his encouragement and support, I had achieved my goal of losing 50lbs. Elite Personal Training and Fitness Solutions is lucky to have him and his future clients are even luckier to
have the opportunity of working with Zack.

Rick B.

Dr. Dave and his staff of trainers are so far above the standard fitness center personal trainers, it's basically an entirely different thing. This is challenging training, but with the sophistication of physical therapy, individual plans, and decades of experience. My recovery from pretty serious spinal and shoulder surgeries has been well above expectations, surprising my surgeons and delighting me! I attribute my recovery to Elite, Dr. Dave, and Justin who trains me.

Colleen G.

Justin is an awesome personal trainer; he keeps me motivated and keeps the training fun. Each training session is different, and I look forward to going. Justin is very attentive and adjusts my workouts according to how I am feeling that day. If you are looking for a trainer, call Justin at Elite Personal Training.

Dr. Dave,

 

Here is one to put into your success notes.

 

Today is my 66th birthday. I took this as a challenge. To start the day with a warm-up, I took a barre class. I then set out to do 66 of the things we have worked on. 66 push ups, sit ups, pull ups, 66 second plank, etc. I pulled it off in about 30 minutes. All weren’t difficult except for the pull ups. For them I had to break them into sets like we do — and then rest . Between sets I did the other exercises for about 5 minutes.

 

Now… will I need 66 hours to recover….

 

Thanks for teaching and guiding me. Without you I couldn’t have done this or even tried!

Rachel C.

Amazing personal attention!
I was a little skeptical about whether there was any room for change to my body composition and level of fitness because I am already an active person who works out frequently.  However, in just two months, I have seen muscles I never before knew existed, and I have grown in the areas I wanted to grow, and shrank in the areas I wanted to shrink.  How do I know this?  At elite, they take measurements, look at your progress and give you an in-depth look at your health in order to measure your progress and keep an eye on what to work on, and what to be mindful of, all based on the individual's needs. I work with Amy, and she's amazing. She really understands the importance of exercising safely, while pushing you beyond your norm.  Also, she is funny with positive vibes. Dave is a great physical therapist and trainer who has all the information about overall health and very knowledgable answers to all your medical questions.  Overall, this place is personalized to your needs, straight forward, well informed and inviting.  No gimmicks or trying to sell you on sh*t.

Margarita L.

My trainer Amy is a pleasure to work with, she makes sure that I am comfortable but checks every move. Looking forward to my workouts with her!

Janice P.

I have been working with Amy from Elite since June and I have had the most positive experience. My workouts are challenging but enjoyable. All the trainers at Elite are knowledgeable and go above and beyond to personalize each workout to fit the needs of their clients. I am so happy I choose to start my journey with Elite!

Mike R.

Working out with Dave has been a life-changing experience for my physical health over the last couple years. Prior to starting his training, I had accepted that an injury from my college sport would always cause me to have arthritis following sports activities. Due to my gained core strength and mobility through his workouts, I can again play the sport I love with minimal discomfort.

 

Dave incorporates his knowledge in physical therapy, kinesiology, and various personal training techniques, to provide a unique workout program for you. He constantly adapts the workout, which will keep you excited to go to every workout.

Drew

I have been going to Elite for the past year and a half and training with Adrian. A good friend talked me into going and I'm not looking back. The entire staff is wonderful. They have everything we need to get great results. I go three times a week and love it. Cant say enough about Elite. Thanks for giving me my body back.

Maria C.

I am a 56 year old female in relatively good health who had been committed to a routine strength training (3x's weekly) for about 3 months prior to the shutdown. Once forced to stay at home, I attempted to maintain a fairly stable routine on my own. Then, Amy reached out to me offering her services. I hesitated at first but am SOOOO glad I acted on it. Amy is always on time, energetic, and very engaged in the every training sessions. You will be pleasantly surprised as to how attentive she is to your form and process - she can see EVERYTHING! Her routines vary and always keep me alert and interested. Amy is flexible as my work-from-home schedule changes at the last minute. I HIGHLY recommend Amy.

Vibha B.

I cannot love and recommend this office any more than I already do. I appreciate the positivity, hard work, and the ethical and moral values these guys have. They are not here to misguide you. I have been through multiple personal trainers at different gyms prior to this and always felt like my trainers were not listening to me and what my goals were. I have changed trainers over the years and that didn’t change much. Personal training at a physical therapy office is not like personal training at a gym. I have had to go through physical therapy off and on due to bulging disc issues after having my first child and would never go to anyone other than Dr. Trumbore. Following up after therapy, I started personal training with Adriene and for the first time I have a trainer who is interested in my goals and is training me accordingly. I am 21 weeks pregnant and he modifies my plan as needed as my pregnancy is progressing. He explains the reasoning behind each exercise and why we are doing it and how it helps my particular situation, which I love because I have a better understanding of what we are doing. He is very encouraging. There are days I walks in to my session dragging my feet because of extreme exhaustion, but I always feel great when I start exercising with Adriene. We listen to great music. The environment is very relaxing unlike being at a gym. Now especially with the pandemic I feel comfortable going here because he is constantly wiping down surfaces that I touch. We both wear masks and I know they take all the precautions they can take to keep their clients protected. If you are looking to get something out of your time, money and effort call them! You will not regret it.

Doug G.

I wanted to improve my athletic performance basketball. I had used personal trainers in the past but was not impressed and questioned whether it was worth my time and money. I was referred by a friend Dr. David Trumbore. I cannot convey how pleased I was with this decision. I had a thorough evaluation and we spent time discussing my fitness and basketball-related goals. He implemented a very sport specific training program and I was amazed how quickly I saw results in my strength, flexibility, endurance my overall basketball game. I highly recommend!

Gina C.

I started working with Amy in-person in a small group setting.  Once Covid hit and gyms shut down, I started Zoom training with her.  Amy was able to pivot seamlessly to the on-line platform using whatever equipment I had around the house plus bodyweight.  In both scenarios, Amy is kind, supportive and builds varied routines that work all parts of the body. I'd highly recommend Amy!

DR. Ann

I am a 30 something physical therapist who had undergone knee surgery which required me to be non-weight bearing on that limb for over a month. I lost considerable amount of strength in my leg muscles and needed rehabilitation in order to return to work with my patients safely and pain free. I expected to perform the same old same old quad strengthening exercises, maybe some muscle stimulation treatments, but received much more. I also was working towards my black belt in karate and needed to regain total body conditioning to return to those workouts. Dave worked me hard but with such an innovated routine I looked forward to what his creative mind would come up with next. He got my quads back firing and had me doing core strengthening that truly changed my shape and workout routines to this day. I am pain free and stronger than ever. I was able to earn my black belt this summer and want to thank Dave and his staff for their role in that accomplishment! 

Robert  c.

I came to Dr. Dave for training when I tore my ACL. It was a rough time for me. I didn’t think I would ever be myself again, but when I finished, I left much better than I came in! He worked out my entire body in my rehabilitation and not just my knee. Now, thanks to the personal training they provided, I’m much healthier and stronger than I was before I hurt my knee. Thanks to Dr. Dave, I am back and playing sports again the way I did before and I understand how important the overall health of my body is.

Debbie P.

I am a 35 year- old nurse, and a mother of three children. One year ago, I had varicose vein surgery. As a result of a doctor's mistake, my peroneal nerve which supplies function to my leg and foot was severed. I now have to wear a brace on my leg to be able to walk. Before I went to Dr. Dave my spirit was broken. I didn't know my limitations or capabilities I had to face with my new brace. I was mentally and physically drowning in my sorrow, because I felt stripped of my health, strength, and speed. In addition to my leg, I was treated holistically in mind, body, and spirit. The rehabilitation, physical fitness workouts, and Pilates have made me a stronger, faster, fit person that I have ever been in my life. The nutritional supplements they recommended such as, Accelerade and Enderox enabled me to endure the continual progression of intense workouts. I am extremely grateful to Dr. Dave for giving me my quality of life back and restoring my spirit. I am challenged each and every workout to be the best I can be and my brace is no longer an issue.

Paige B.

I started personal training with Amy because I needed that motivation and I was also intimidated/unsure of how to use the equipment at the gym. She has significantly increased my confidence about myself and my ability to use the equipment on my own! Her workouts are well rounded and very effective! I have worked with Amy for about a year now and the results have been amazing. Not only does Amy make working out enjoyable and fun, she is incredibly kind and she also gives her full attention to you and really makes you become a better you! I don’t see myself with any other trainer but Amy, she is amazing!!!

Princess m.

I came to Amy for personal training because I knew I needed support and guidance from a professional. I trained under the direction of Amy for about 8 weeks and she thoroughly listened to my weight management/loss goals, not only tailored exercises specifically for me but offered suggestions on nutrition and her support in between our weekly training sessions. With her support, I have lost 8.5lbs., not to mention, approximately 2.5 inches from both the waist area and hips. To date, with Amy's guidance, I currently continue to stay focused on my fitness journey. Thank you Amy for your assistance in being/becoming fit for life.

Ginny

I started out @ Elite Personal Training as an in-person training. After 9 months, I moved to Virginia and began a virtual training program. I thought virtual would not be as good as in-person but I have to say that Jon, my trainer, works me just as hard as if I was in the Elite gym..I lost weight, trimmed down my waist. But most importantly my doctor took me off a blood pressure medicine as my blood pressure was down. She also took me off my low dose cholesterol medicine. I am 72 years old and exercising hard 3x a week with Jon...I lift heavy weights, use heavy bands and an able to do a 5minute plank..I never thought I would be this strong and this fit at 72. Elite Personal training evaluates me every 8 weeks by measuring my major muscle groups, weighing me and giving me a flexibility and strength test. This shows me how much I am improving and is a great motivator. Elite Personal Training is keeping me young!!

vicki

After needing spinal fusion surgery at 50 I was very concerned that I wouldn't get back to the high level of activity I enjoy. Physical therapy after surgery only takes you so far. With the help of Amy and Dave at Elite, I can honestly say that I am pain free and stronger than I ever have been. I'm biking, hiking, running and feel GREAT. As a general physician I am always impressed with the attention to form and safety. This group of skilled individuals is top notch!!

eshowe

Having been a client at Elite for awhile now, I can attest that the trainers are caring, professional, and skilled in their work. My strength, balance, and fitness have definitely improved quite a bit since beginning. At 93, I feel I'm doing very well and a lot of credit got to Elite.

Vince G.

I can’t say enough about the staff and experience at Elite - I’ve been virtually training with them for the better part of a year so far. Since training with the team, I feel much stronger and healthier than I did before. I’ve learned so much about how to work out, and I’ve gotten tons of useful info on the mechanics, science, and nutrition behind the operation of the body. Couldn’t recommend Elite more - sign up and you’ll thank yourself later!

Irene B.

I am one that always hated to work out however I knew that I needed to make detrimental changes in my lifestyle. I dreaded joining a gym so instead I decided to give personal training a shot. I couldn’t be happier with not just the results but the staff, they are truly Elite. I was so embarrassed during the initial assessment but 5 months later I couldn’t be more proud. Elite is a completely different level of personal training that is overseen by true professionals that Incorporate and come up with a true personalized plan for each client. My personal trainer, Justin is the most patient, well mannered, genuine soul who truly cares. He pushes me to work hard without ever allowing me to feel like a failure from the first day I joined. I work out 3x/week and look forward to every session. I couldn’t be more grateful and thankful for not just Justin but all the trainers that are always so supportive and caring. I did learn so much along the way from exercise, to food and not to mention the Guru of vitamins-David. Thanks for all you have done and I do love the snacks
Highly recommend to all and such a pleasure to work with.

Ryan C.

I started working out again in my early 30’s. I was always athletic and played a lot of sports growing up.  After college and working full time, working out and physical activity decreased exponentially.  Working out with Joel and Elite really helped me get back into working out. With a heavy workload, a new house, and a new baby at home, working out seemed like an afterthought.  Elite was able to set me up with a home workout that is done virtually and gave me a little kit with some gear. I have been working out a couple days a week for about 5 months now and have noticed that I feel a lot better, have more energy, better posture, etc. I can honestly say I was not expecting any real quality or results from working out at home but I’ve never been happier to be proven wrong. 

As I have been working out more, I am starting to build up a little home gym for myself and am able to bounce ideas off Joel to see what’s the next piece of equipment I should get and how I can be the most efficient with buying new workout equipment.

Another great aspect of the Elite program is that we take measurements and conduct evaluations routinely so you can really see the progress that is made both in amount of reps or weight as well as the physical changes that happen to your body overtime.

regina K.

As a new client who is 58 years-old with some injuries, I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated the evaluation process with Dr. David Trumbore and Jonathan Kernaghan for a few reasons. They were able to expertly assess my fitness strengths and weaknesses utilizing advanced tools. Also, I learned a great deal from the nutrition consultation. As a result, I am eager to start my health journey with their team immediately!

David

Great personal training. They give a lot of attention to the uniqueness of each person and created a program designed specially for me. The workouts are challenging and fun. They have made me stronger, have helped my mobility, and have improved my general level of fitness. Highly recommend!

randy w.

I've been going to Elite Personal Training the past three years. Prior to that I was a candidate for back surgery and had multiple musculoskeletal conditions. Since starting at Elite, my back pain has subsided and my quality of health/life has increased dramatically. They are terrific at what they do - they are knowledgeable, personable and friendly. I would highly recommend using them for any physical/personal health training needs. All of the trainers I've worked with really care about clients well-being

Ilene B.

I can’t say enough positive things about Elite. This place is amazing, full of positive energy, trainers who encourage, teach, and support whatever goals you have for yourself. My trainer Justin is the most energetic, talented, positive, upbeat trainer with a great sense of humor. Justin is my biggest cheerleader and is always encouraging me to do better. He keeps me motivated by changing up my workout plan every time we meet. I have been at Elite for almost 5 months and I have to say the results I am seeing in my physical appearance have given me more confidence in myself and the desire to train even harder. Justin allows me to push myself at every workout as hard as I can and is constantly watching for proper form to decrease the potential for injury. He is in tune with my energy level and adjusts my workout accordingly to makes sure every exercise is done properly. Every few months you will be re-evaluated to see how much progress you have made. A few days ago during my re-evaluation, all the trainers, and clients who were there, were cheering me on to hold a plank as long as I could and not to give up. I surpassed my previous 5 minute plank hold time to a new time of 6 minutes and 5 seconds. (Not too bad for a woman of my age). Thank you Justin for helping me attain my goals and surpass other goals! You and I have been continually raising the bar on my goals and I am meeting them. I could not have done this without you. Thank you to everyone at Elite for all your positive energy and encouragement!

Mary

Historically, I have had difficulty maintaining a consistent exercise routine. Although I was fairly active and looked moderately fit, I never truly enjoyed working out and never fully incorporated it into my lifestyle. When I would become unhappy with how I looked, I would force myself to work out, whip myself into shape over a period of months, and then lose interest and motivation until the cycle repeated itself, over and over. With age, this process took longer and became less effective each time.

 

An unexpected medical issue a few years ago left me with symptoms that severely limited my activity level even further. I got to a point where I didn’t recognize myself when I looked in the mirror and didn’t feel comfortable in my own skin. I knew I needed to do something, but I didn’t know what. I was fully aware that my old workouts and exercise habits weren’t going to cut it. Elite was the solution to that dilemma.


My initial fear of the unknown was alleviated by the professional, thorough, comprehensive evaluation process at Elite. I felt reassured that I was at the right place with the right people. On my very first day of training with Zack, my feelings of apprehension and embarrassment were quickly eased by his positive, upbeat, non-judgmental demeanor. He made me believe I wasn’t as bad off as I thought and I was totally capable of achieving my health and fitness goals, which inspired me to want to come back.

 

Zack developed a training program tailored specifically to me and my goals and introduces new elements on a regular basis. His educational background and excellent credentials instill confidence, and are clearly evident when he explains the rationale, target, and proper form for every exercise. He consistently asks how I’m feeling to make sure I’m not underworking, overworking, or risking injury. He keeps a record of everything and is able to point out every bit of progress I’ve made. Most importantly, he challenges, encourages, and motivates me every single time we train. As a bonus, he also has a pleasant personality, an enjoyable sense of humor, and good taste in music. Now that I’ve been training 3 days a week for over a month, I can honestly say that Zack has gone from making a good first impression to being one of my favorite people, and has proven himself to be a trustworthy, reliable, truly elite trainer.


There’s a big difference between exercising at home or a gym and personal training. In a short time, I am already feeling stronger, more tone, more energetic, and more positive about myself. Thanks to Zack and Elite, I actually enjoy and look forward to working out now, which makes me think I just might finally be able to break that cycle and turn health and fitness into a sustainable priority. I am grateful to everyone and everything at Elite for what is turning out to be a life-changing experience. I would unequivocally recommend their services to anyone.

Truly amazing experiences here. The training, the motivation, it's all amazing and helped me reach my goals, as well as continue reaching my goals. I feel at home here, and every day am motivated to show up and put my best effort in. Love it, and couldn't recommend Elite enough!!!

Love the one-on-one and targeted training. As someone with ongoing knee issues, being able to train with people who keep your personal history and needs in mind has been extremely helpful. Sessions are smartly structured for overall fitness but targeted to meet your personal goals. They are also great at keeping you accountable!

I have enjoyed everything about my experience so far at EPT. The comprehensive and holistic information Dr. Dave provides based on real science, both in person and on the website, is invaluable. I trust his expertise more than any other medical professional I have ever known. Zach is awesome. Educates, challenges and motivates me every time we train. To his credit, I have never look forward to working out as much as I do now, nor have I been as committed to a fitness program. I am grateful for everyone and everything at EPT.

Coach Tunde was a tremendous influence on our son at a time when his confidence as a young soccer player was at a very low point.  Coach Tunde’s work with our son resulted in improved knowledge and skills, a boost to his self-confidence, and most importantly, a rejuvenated love for the game.  We believe that Coach Tunde’s patient, easy-going and encouraging approach was critical to our son’s success in fighting through anxiety which has been challenging him for a number of years.  We would recommend Coach Tunde to anyone looking for experienced, affordable and personable training for their young soccer player!

Dr. Dave is incredible. He and Adriene have been working with my 15yr. old son for 3 months and the results are amazing. My son was looking to improve his explosiveness, speed, and strength for basketball and football. Dr. Dave assessed his physical strengths and weaknesses and shaped a complete custom training regimen. The results were so dramatic that our 18yr. old daughter asked to go to Elite, she’s now a happy client too.

Coach Tunde is an excellent trainer.  As a credential, he holds a BS in exercise physiology and is professionally certified to train. His professional experience is varied; he has worked with all ages, from high school students up through geriatric persons whose skills have not kept up with their ages.

 

Coach Tunde has worked with me, an older person, to help with aging issues.  He has worked with my balance, helping me to rise and stand up from a low sitting position, and to step up and to step down in different situations.  These mobility and motion tasks become more difficult as one ages. He has helped me with my posture, helped me to stand erect and upright, and to avoid slouching. He has worked with me on my stride and gait in walking. Coach Tunde is a very close observer of the body in motion and has helped identify different areas of activity where improvement is possible for me. Overall, Coach Tunde is versatile, thoughtful, observant and able to provide exercise solutions to solve problems. I have personally benefited greatly from his help.

Coach Tunde is a great man who taught me both sides of soccer. He taught me the mental and physical side of the game, while giving me new insight on how to improve my talents. His coaching helped me to improve my decision making, vision on the field, and all around make me a better soccer player, which helped me earn a spot on the varsity team my freshman year and overcome my fears of playing travel soccer.

I am 62 and have had a moderately fit active lifestyle until 2 years ago when I suffered from chronic pain in my shoulder joint. I became less active and lost strength and endurance while putting on weight. One new shoulder joint and the expertise of the Elite professionals have changed my life and my vitality. I’m just 3 months with Elite and I am seeing results physically, emotionally and with my zest for this chapter of my life. Amy is my trainer and has skillfully worked with my limitations while building capability and confidence. Dave’s 30 years of physical therapy has assured me that my work outs are safe and are building a strong future for me. They are all professional, friendly and encouraging! It’s been a great experience for a non athlete!!

The whole process is great and really helpful. Personal training sessions with Adriene have made a huge difference so far in my strength and achieving my athletic goals! I have seen more progress in these sessions than any other training I have tried. Professional, educational, clean, safe and welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend!!

I am 40 years old and starting to go down the wrong path with my health. With being overweight and developing high blood pressure my health wasn’t looking too hot.

 

I started Personal Training with Elite where I was evaluated by Dave who did a thorough evaluation and answered all my questions with no hesitation. Dave is highly knowledgeable and truly wants to help and see clients succeed.

 

I started training with Adriene who is awesome, he is very attentive and encouraged me to stay motivated. My schedule fit better with Amy’s schedule and I eventually started training with her. Amy is great, also very attentive, keeps me motivated, modifies exercises that I cannot do, she introduces unique exercises that keep the sessions fun!

 

I was received an evaluation with the InBody. WOW, this InBody machine gives you so much information about what your body is actually composed of!

 

It was an eye-opening experience for me to see these numbers and what I must work on. I was able to see where I need the most help and not just step on the scale to measure my weight. They then sat down and went over the results thoroughly and explained everything to me. All my questions were answered.

 

I set goals for myself, and I am looking forward to the next assessment to see the difference. I want to feel good and look good and be there for my family.

 

With Dave, Adriene, and Amy’s expertise I know I have the help to go down the right path and live a happy, healthy, active lifestyle. I know without them I would not be able to do that.

 

I highly recommend Elite Personal Training to anyone who wants to live a healthy lifestyle. Dave, Adriene and Amy are the best!

I've been going to Elite Personal Training the past month or so. They are terrific at what they do - they are knowledgeable, personable and friendly. I would highly recommend using them for any training needs.

Personal training with Dr. Dave has literally been life altering! I am in my early 60s and was becoming frustrated. I played multiple sports in high school and college and continued playing recreationally. However, I found myself starting to “wind down”. My fitness level had deteriorated, I could no longer run, I had gained weight and would frequently get injured. I was at the point where I reluctantly was about to accept my fate and stop playing basketball.

I had a neck and knee injury which connected me with Dr. Dave for rehabilitation. After my physical therapy, we started intensive personal training three times a week.

 

Our first visit was a comprehensive evaluation followed by mutual goal setting and then a prescribed individual program. We have been training together three times a week and the results have been amazing! I have lost weight, improved my fitness levels tremendously, gained flexibility, improved muscular strength (especially my core) and can run again. Perhaps most importantly, I have resumed playing competitive basketball.

 

I’ve had personal training in the past but my training with Dr. Dave is unique and unlike anything else I have experienced. He combines his knowledge of physical therapy, anatomy, exercise science and 3 decades of experience to prescribe, monitor and advance the most effective individualized training programs. My programs are ever-changing so my progress does not become stagnant. I can’t recommend training with him enough!

Working with Amy this past year has been a positive life changing experience for me. She patiently guides me through all the movements while gently encouraging me to push myself further each time. As a result I have greater strength and endurance along with a trimmer physique. My sessions with Amy, they’re my gift to me. She’s wonderful!

Igor S.

Adriene was the one that introduced me to lifting 5 years ago and I’ve been hooked ever since. His focus on making lifting fun and practical makes working out effortless. He has always been eager to answer my questions about fitness or to find the answer if he didn’t have it already.

Dawn S.

Amy is amazing. I've seen great results working with Amy the past few months. Very affordable and very flexible to work around my personal demanding schedule. Amy constantly increases the difficulty and scope of our sessions to assist me in obtaining my fitness goals. Whether in person or on zoom, Amy gives you 100% of her attention. She is the best. I am new to the fitness world, but with Amy's help and inspiration, I am encouraged to continue on this journey.

Not having an active workout schedule in the past, Dr. Dave has been a great Personal Trainer in supporting my training objectives. I have been able to see continual improvement working out with him for the past year. I know that I would never have achieved the level of fitness and wellness that I have now if not for the personal attention given in my training sessions. I would have no hesitation in recommending him as your personal trainer if you want to achieve your fitness and health goal.

Joanne R.

Working with  Dr. Dave at EPTFS has helped me greatly with my mobility, strength and balance. The training is adapted to your abilities and specific goals and Dr. Dave is constantly challenging you to be better. This allowed me stay healthy and get faster while I was training for a marathon. In my late thirties, I am even running a faster mile time than I did as a college athlete!

I injured my left knee so I was looking for a nearby facility that offered strength training with a physical therapy focus. This was very important to me in order to ensure proper form when starting to working out again and to have the on-site expertise to prevent further aggravation of my knee issues. While searching the internet late one night, I found Elite. I called the next day and made an appointment with Dave. At my consultation, a thorough strength, mobility and health assessment was performed. Since January, I have been strength training twice a week with Adriene and it was the best decision I've made! Adriene is very attentive to my form and challenges me (but in a safe way) during my sessions which I love! With the expertise of both Dave and Adriene, they also suggested a taping method for my knee which has significantly improved my confidence and general mobility resulting in less overall pain and allows me to progress even more in my strength training sessions! I am so happy that I found Elite and wished that I had discovered them sooner!

I played sports in high school and college and have been active all of my life. I am now in my early 60s and more recently began feeling the effects of not eating well and not exercising regularly. A friend of mine, who trains at Elite Personal and Fitness Solutions in Huntington Valley, recommended that I start training there too. I was interested based on his recommendation but was reluctant since I live 45-60 minutes away. Several months ago, I decide to give it a try and see if it was worth the long drive. I have to say I could not be happier – this place is great! On my initial visit I had a thorough evaluation which was followed by a lengthy discussion. Dr. Dave explained in detail many nuances of my health and laid out a plan that would help me achieve my goals. I train with Dr. Dave – but all the trainers are quite knowledgeable and friendly. The training program that Dr. Dave prescribed that was very different from anything I ever experienced. Each training session is different. In a relatively short period of time, I have made significant improvement in my strength, balance, muscle tone and endurance. My health and weight problems are being improved as I am constantly challenged in every training session. As I mentioned, I played many sports and exercised throughout my life but I never experienced anything like this type of training. My training includes a variety of functional exercises that are progressed and monitored with emphasis on safety while producing maximal results.

 

I highly recommend Elite!

At the suggestion of a good friend, I setup an evaluation appointment with Dave Trumbore of Elite
Personal Training. I had something in mind for my physical health for some time but had not followed up
on it before my friend nudged me; I could see that he had benefited from his Elite training. That
evaluation ten months ago started me on my beneficial path with Elite.
Dave looked me over then quizzed me on my health goals. For me these were simple: work to physically
feel like I did in the past without hurting myself. Sounds simple. I had idea how to do it on my own. Dave
gave me a personal, individual, plan to me get there. Not being overweight helped me. Being out of shape from neglect did not. Dave’s plan addressed the later with hourly guided workouts three times a week. He plans each of my hours with his knowledge of what to do at each point in the sessions. He is there with me the entire time to direct and encourage me, while assuring that I will not be injured. Each hour is a complete challenge with constant direction and feedback. He intersperses helpful comments about diet and eating habits – things that I was aware of but never thought much about before. Dave also encouraged me to try the evening Yoga stretching classes which have complemented the workout times. All in the friendly Elite Personal Training team has guided me to be fitter again. I feel like my old self. It has taken me hours of work to get here with Dave as my leader. I would never have done it alone. If you want a personal way to safely workout for your physical health, the team at Elite Personal Training is a great way to do it.
