A couple of years ago, I decided I was sick and tired of being sick and tired. I was paired with Emily as a trainer, and it was one of the best things that ever happened to me. She challenges me every week to accomplish things I didn't know my body was capable of. It's not always pretty, but with her encouragement and support I went from a wheezing mess trying to do one simple push-up to smoothly lifting over 130 lbs. She's helped me grow in not only strength but confidence. She's kind, patient, and knows just how far to push you to reach your goal. She's an incredible trainer and a huge asset to CAC.

I had never used a personal trainer before, but wanted to see what added benefit a trainer could provide to my workout. I was expecting only to utilize one session and then do workouts on my own.
After working with Emily that first time and meeting with her briefly afterwards, I decided to try twice a week sessions for a couple of months. I have enjoyed working with Emily. She quickly found my principle weaknesses and designed workout routines to make progress as quickly as possible. She also varies the routines and never lets me get bored. Emily also seems to know when to push me harder (more reps, 1 more set) and when to move on to the next exercise.
I saw such good signs of progress in my strength and stability, that I extended the workouts for an additional 6 months. With Emily’s help, and many sore muscles, I am much stronger all around, especially upper body, which was a weakness for me.

I have been working with Emily for almost a year. I am 62, had not worked out in years and was finally beginning to lose some weight. I wanted: a-to continue losing weight; b-work with someone who could make sure I was doing the exercises safely as I had no idea where to even start, and lastly to increase my endurance as I was always the last one in any family hikes and could not climb stairs without needing a break.

Emily is able to blend the right amount of enthusiasm and instruction so our sessions are never dull or lacking in being challenging to push my body. She evaluates me carefully as we go through the exercises to correct any misalignment or unsafe movements as well as checking in with me to make sure I am not hurting. I now have some noticeable muscles in my arms, have continued to lose weight and am toning up in most areas of my body and can now climb up 8 flights of stairs. Emily keeps me motivated to continue and offers positive reinforcement just when it is needed. I feel fortunate to be working with her and would definitely recommend her to all!
