"When I was tired of being tired, I called the Personal Training Team. I was not only tired. I was overweight, stressed and had not really exercised in years. I did not have the stamina or energy to keep up with my peers who are younger--much younger and my business travel schedule was killing me. But I did have one thing going for me. I decided that I had to get healthy. Thanks to the wonderful nutritional and exercise guidance from Nancy Gardner, I am getting healthy. I can’t believe how far I have come in three short months. I am lighter by over 20 lbs and I actually have oodles of energy. And as I tell Nancy, I am beginning to see muscles where there used to be blobs. Thanks to Nancy and the entire team for a life-changing experience."

Vicki's Transformation

"I am sick and tired of being sick and tired and I am tired of being fat!" That's what the grandmother of four expressed to Dianne Cumberland of Personal Training Team when they first met in November of 2004.

Vicki was 53 years old and very unhappy about how she felt and looked for the last 10 years. "Since menopause, nothing I tried has worked," she said, "and I need help." Her goal was to get in shape and feel young again. She felt comfotable with the maturity of our training team knowing that we could relate to the challenges that face us as we continue to age and decided to get started.

Still at a Desk...But Not Fat, Lazy or Depressed Anymore

“I used to be fat and lazy and depressed, but it wasn't always that way. I work for Microsoft and sit at a desk most of the time. Occasionally I run down the hall screaming, but that doesn't really pass for exercise. A friend at work got me into mountain biking and I fell in love with the outdoors. I would ride every weekend with serious religion. I got into pretty good shape, lost a lot of weight. Then disaster happened. My knees started to hurt so badly that I couldn't walk. Three physical therapists, two personal trainers, and a dual-knee arthroscopy operation later, I was fat and lazy and depressed. Again. No biking, no running, no outdoors. Life sucked.

Then my fiance found the Personal Training Team website. There was a picture of this sexy chick riding a mountain bike, and she looked like she was in great shape! Her story was similar to mine, so I thought "What the hell, I'll give her a go."

I started working with Nancy twice a week, and she relentlessly kicked my butt. She got me eating right, motivated, and set goals that we could work towards... including getting back on my bike.


She had me see a podiatrist so I could get orthotic inserts (key to knee recovery!), sent me to therapeutic massage, and I also saw a chiropractor. All of this, coupled with regular workouts and eating right... I was back on my bike in 6 months. Now I ride three times a week, I go to the Pro Club, and I'm not fat. Or lazy. Or depressed.

I'm happy, thanks to Nancy and Dianne's persistence, support, and attitude towards fitness and life. I'd recommend them to anyone looking to improve their life experience.”

"After major spinal surgery I was very fearful of falling and knew I needed to get stronger. After only a few months at Personal Training Team, Inc. I have been able to return to playing golf and my strength and balance have improved tremendously. My posture has improved and my friends comment on how much more confident I seem to be."

“Although I’ve worked out all of my adult life, nothing brought real results until I started working out at Personal Training Team. Over the last year I have increased my strength significantly, especially my legs, which is extremely important for me – a senior. Fringe benefit – I’ve dropped a pant size!"

“I have numerous health problems – all my doctors advise me to exercise. I will not do it on my own – I have relied on Personal Training Team to keep me motivated over the last seven years. With the addition of exercise in my life all my medical conditions are under control and I am much healthier now than I was 3 years ago.”

"When I first joined Personal Training Team I wore a size 16 and had limited strength. I have been working very hard and now wear a size 12 and my strength has greatly improved. I love the way I am advised on eating habits, foods and general health. My all time best for my workouts keeps me moving ahead with a lot more energy!"

Judy M.

"I started feeling more energized in a very short time after beginning working with Personal Training Team. The trainers create workouts that strike a perfect balance between challenging and fun. I really look forward to coming to my workouts."
