Testimonials:
Hey Jason,
Just wanted to take a few minutes to say what an amazing trainer Larry
has been. He has an incredible knowledge of exercises, stretches and
diet, and has a very clear and easily understood manner in communicating
them. His attention to correct and proper form was particularly strong,
and I know I carry that over when I exercise on my own. I feel I have
made tremendous progress since I have started with him, and I would ,and
do, highly recommend him to everyone I meet that is looking for a
trainer.
Thanks to you and to Larry! --------Doug Wolf

I am over 50 and had
never worked with a Fitness trainer before coming to Larry. I have
only been working with him for a few months but am very happy with
the results so far and plan to continue working with him. Larry is
extremely knowledgeable. He is also kind, caring and patient. I
appreciate his thoughtfulness and creativity in designing exercises
for me that accommodate my specific workout goals and physical
limitations. He makes working out fun and challenging without being
intimidating. ---------Julia

Larry's

Over the years, I've tried a lot of
different activities in the name of
health and challenging myself
(including becoming a vegan for 2
years and running a marathon), but I
secretly always hoped it would give
me that cover of Runners World
physique. It didn't! Eventually, I
had accepted that no matter how hard
I worked, my body was naturally just
oddly shaped and that I was fit and
that's just good enough considering
I was still in much better shape
than most of the people I knew.
I
honestly was blown away by the
results that I saw in just the first
3 weeks of training with Larry! In
addition to helping me get rid of my
butt, Larry has been helping me
correct posture issues that I wasn't
even aware of eliminating knee pain
I had occasionally gotten from
running for the past 4 years.
He
has a very in-depth knowledge of
kinesiology and nutrition and has
explained away many of the myths
from those bizarre fad diets and
exercise routines we try to ignore
but that somehow get into our heads
anyway. Probably the most valuable
thing I've learned from Larry and
Jason is
that staying in great shape isn't
nearly as time consuming as I had
imagined it would be. I only wish
I'd known this 10 years ago when I
was working so hard for half of the
results. Julie

I have worked with a number of trainers over
the years so I have a good basis for comparison. I was happy with my
other trainers at the time but Larry has proven to be the best. He has
an excellent knowledge of physiology, and a keen awareness of how each
exercise looks when done properly. He explains each exercise in simple
terms that I understand easily. He is able to tell me exactly where I
should feel each exercise, allowing me to know whether I’m doing it
correctly. His feedback gives each of my work-outs optimum efficiency.
I have obtained incredible results, and learned a lot in a short time.
Larry is very professional. I never feel intimidated or embarrassed
even if I can’t do something right away. He always puts me at ease,
interjecting encouragement and humor. He makes the work-outs as much
fun as they are effective. Will
Krista

I've trained with Larry for over 3 years and
initially my goal was to lose 20 lbs and tone certain areas of my body.
Larry made that challenge fun and attainable. But the true testament to
Larry's skills is teaching me how to keep it off and still be able to
enjoy my life. Anybody can lose weight; the challenge is keeping it off.
I've been able to keep the
20 lbs off ever since and continue to train with Larry to stay healthy
and fit. Larry has taught me how to eat properly so that I can stay at
my goal weight while still enjoying the finer things in life (that would
be ice cream).
