i have been a member at GISFW for almost 3 years. when i joined i had a horrible diet which consisted of lean cuisines, vending machine snacks and diet coke. i was not overweight, but did not feel very good about myself. i had belonged to another fitness center for a year and had visited probably three times. since joining get in shape, i have consistently worked out HARD3 times a week, and changed my diet, i look better and i feel better. the trainers, all of them, have been wonderful, each in their individual ways. some outgoing, some quiet. dave, the manager is extremely knowlegable about fitness, anatomy and physiology, working around injuries and nutriton. i’ve watched him train for his own competition and been in awe of his results. each trainer is a human just like each client, some even struggle with weight issues. i feel that this makes it easier for them to empathize with what some of the difficulties the clients may face. never have i looked at the trainers or the manager and thought that because they weren’t perfect that i coulnd’t trust them to help me reach my goals… quite the opposite in fact!
