Bev S. - North Haven Trax Training Client

Working with a personal trainer is the best thing you can do for yourself. You are worth it, and it is never too late to start. Don’t be intimidated, just do it.

 I decided to work with my personal trainer, Trevor, because I needed help with motivation. I wanted to learn the correct way to do exercises to prevent injury. Your trainer works with you and has workout plans so you can accomplish what your goals are. When you become stronger and start losing weight you know you are doing something good for your body. 

 When I complete a training session, I feel energized and proud of myself for working through the session. You complete a tough workout, and you feel great.

I wanted to thank Jen, my personal trainer (and the Healthtrax small group) that whipped me into the best ski shape ever!

We conquered Utah’s various peaks, that the 9 of us covered over 4 days. It took us over 120 miles of trails and over 60,000 vertical feet, with legs and lungs that never quit (and no injuries).

Would never have been able to do it without you and your training!

My Doctor walked into the examination room head down in my file, then looking up with wide eyes....

"You've lost over 80lbs! You are at a healthy weight!! How did you do it?"

A big smile slowly spreads across my face, it had been decades that I had heard "healthy weight" from my doctor. This transformation is all because of my dedicated Healthtrax Trainer, Connor. His knowledge, his understanding, his motivation! Connor is the best!!!

I have been working with Dominic for several weeks now and can’t tell you much I appreciate the time, effort, and knowledge he has shared with me. He has helped me to achieve my goals!

Thanks to my Healthtrax personal trainer and dotFIT, I have lost 23 pounds of body fat! As a woman over 50, I can now take control of my health.

Annemarie wasn’t feeling great about her pandemic ‘fitness level’. Upon her return to Healthtrax and working with Trax Trainer, Michelle she has made great strides to do more in the gym, at work and at home.

I recently had a total knee replacement. My physical therapist April and my personal trainer Jennifer have coordinated my treatment and workouts to progress quickly. Within 2 months, I am back to biking and walking on a treadmill!

Back in the day, I could leg press 350 lbs. and deadlift 185 lbs. After 12 months of doing almost nothing during the Pandemic; that was what I could lift – almost nothing. Training with Huw has improved my flexibility, balance, mobility, and strength! I’m now a LIFER.

Approximately 9 months ago, I began my weight loss journey. Joining Healthtrax and having Caroline as my trainer has been a game charger to my success.

I had never stepped foot in a gym.

When I walked into Healthtrax I couldn’t have predicted the transformation I would achieve here. I just want to share how much you can achieve from working out with more people.

Wanting to feel confident and comfortable in her own skin on her wedding day, Liz stated she decided to identify and remove anything that could potentially trigger her to resort to bad habits (poor food habits, binge eating, laziness etc.) and she began to work with a Personal Trainer at Healthtrax.

When asked if she would recommend investing in working with a Trax Trainer Liz replied, “Working with  Sasha has changed my life!  He has educated, motivated and inspired me.  I would not have DROPPED 4 DRESS SIZES without him!  I would highly recommend you invest in yourself and try personal training.”

I have to tell this story: When I had my first Covid vaccination at St Francis Hospital the very young nurse who gave me the injection exclaimed: "Look at that deltoid! Wow you really have a beautiful deltoid (muscle)!" I told her I go to the gym. Having joined Healthtrax two years ago (I had never gone to a gym before), I met with Erin for an assessment and personal training session. She developed a plan for me that focused on the things I wanted to work on. I've been going ever since and I've made real progress. My balance and muscle strength are so much better. I've received several compliments on my muscles (which delights me as a 66 yo woman who was very clumsy and uncoordinated my whole life).

So, I say go to Healthtrax, get a personal trainer, you are worth it!

I am Anne Platsky and I am in my 70's.  I have been a member of Healthtrax, Raleigh since 2011.  Healthtrax started offering classes in May during the shut-down.

They have been doing an amazing job. They keep everyone appropriately distanced and are constantly cleaning and sanitizing.  Being at Healthtrax has always been important for my mind, body and soul. During this difficult time Healthtrax has shined. I am so thankful for everything they have done to provide high level care. To those who have been reluctant to return please just come by and check the facility out. You will not be disappointed.

Durane{Member}

I started my fitness journey in November 2017. My goal was to lose weight to be able to fit into my suit for my wedding the following October. I had tried fad diets and working out on my own but with no success so I decided to get a personal trainer. It changed my life forever. My trainer Kristin held me accountable for my diet and curated a training program just for me to meet my goals. Since then I have lost 50lbs and have maintained my goal weight for the last 2 years. My diet is now top notch and I continue to be challenged by my trainer every session.

Jeffrey{Member}
Raleigh, NC

Like many journeys, my fitness quest began with one step followed by another and then another. I’m not going to go into specifics, but I’ll just say the doctor wanted me to lose weight. I had floated between 200 and 220 pounds for many years even while I was a member of Healthtrax. I was not going consistently, and when I was there I was doing far less than I needed to. The facilities were always waiting for me, and the equipment I needed was always there and available, but, like many others, I just didn’t take it seriously. In the middle of last July, I finally had enough.

Joane{Member}

All of my life I have struggled with my weight and eating habits. I found it hard to eat the right foods and the gym was not something I wanted to do. I always had an excuse to not start or to quit. So you ask what made me change, the picture above. That was the turning point, what to do was the question. How could I find my way to good health and happiness with myself?

Joe & Madeline Gomes{Member}

Joe and Madeline have been members of HEALTHTRAX for over 11 years.  When asked what their fitness goals are, Joe revealed his formula for a long, healthy and happy life.  He stated, “Keep moving… you hafta keep moving, it’s so important.  I want to help my body be healthy.  Moderation is important with everything in life.  Oh… and always make up, don’t stay mad.”  Madeline agreed and said, “I always want to be with Joe so I joined the gym.  He encouraged me because I was shy.”  She continued, “YOU CAN DO IT.” are Joe’s favorite words.

Brady{Member}
East Providence, RI

Brady began his fitness journey weighing 330lbs. He didn’t feel healthy and knew he had to make a change.  Brady was determined to make a lifestyle change and reverse his weight gain trend.  His first fitness goal was to do an hour of cardio each week even if it was in 5-10 minute increments.  He now does an hour cardio each day and says it’s enjoyable!  Brady has lost over 130lbs!

“I needed an environment that was fun, challenging and sustainable.  I found that, in the Group Fitness Classes, at Healthtrax!  I didn’t know that I would love the classes as much as I do.  They are fun, energizing and engaging.  Now, I actually enjoy exercising and it has become an integral part of my lifestyle.”

Brian{PREP Member}
Warwick, RI

Within 10 days of making the commitment to join Healthtrax, I noticed a complete 180 degree turn around.  I chose to make better choices with my food consumption to drinking more water than I have in 10 years.   As you can sense, Attitude is everything..  I had one choice -  make a change or go on medications for the rest of my life and become diabetic. I was about 30 days away from falling into that mouse trap and I wanted to make a difference.

Brand & Jasana{PREP Members}
Raleigh, NC

Brandy and Jasana lost weight and found a healthy lifestyle together as a family. Brandy wants others to know that “the center is very family friendly, I saw a lot of family-oriented activities around the center and that helped make us feel comfortable”. As for Jasana she said, “the program was fun, it helped show me that fitness doesn’t have to be boring”.

Before Healthtrax, I didn’t really exercise routinely. My diet wasn’t very mindful. I pretty much ate whatever I wanted without thinking about what it was or what was in it. I would recommend Adam to a friend because his training has given me great results and a more positive feeling about myself.

Rose {Member}
East Greenwich, RI

Before I had joined Healthtrax, I had recently started an exercise regime of my own. After some time, I was diagnosed with breast cancer, forcing me to make some changes in my life. I decided to join Healthtrax, taking advantage of the Healthy Start program. I love coming to Healthtrax, and the staff are so friendly and always willing to help.

William{Member}

I had a wake up call one day when I stepped on the scale and saw 389. At that point I knew something had to change. From eating habits to working out consistently every day to better myself. Now I don’t have a goal. I have a lifestyle. My fitness goals and transformation were made more easily with all the great equipment at the Newington Healthtrax. As well as the great staff here that are always welcoming and friendly to any of my guest.

"From the beginning, Mike has made me feel comfortable in the gym, which is big. And although I am old enough to be his grandmother--almost--he's never made me feel 'old' or like I couldn't do the workouts. ... he never pushes too hard, but never lets me work to less than I am capable of."

Healthtrax has helped me make a transition from my working life to my retirement life.  I was very busy running a successful insurance agency for 30 years, being a primary provider for my family, maintaining 4 properties, and raising my grandson.

I’ve been a member of Healthtrax in Hanover, MA for a few years and I signed up to train with Nikki Ferreira back in October of 2017.  The experience has been life changing and I felt compelled to provide this feedback.  I have always been somewhat active but I had no idea what to expect as I’ve never had private sessions.  I didn’t even know where to start but in our first meeting/interview Nikki made me extremely comfortable and took the time to understand what I was looking to accomplish. 

Stacey Modaress-Razavi {Member}

I've always been overweight as a kid and I became medically obese in my 40s once I had my two wonderful kiddos. Dieting and Weight Watchers never worked for me, because as soon as I lost the weight, it would come right back with a few of it's friends. I tried a few gyms in the past, but unfortunately, it felt like everyone there was dressed like they were looking for a date. Sooooo, not me.

Steven Katz {Member}

I do not often post on Facebook, but I wanted to relay the great experience that I have had since joining Healthtrax in Garden City, NY in November, 2017. The equipment in the gym is well-varied and maintained in excellent condition. Both the gym and locker room are immaculately clean. The staff has been very courteous. In particular, I'd like to thank one of the trainers, Elliott, for his encouragement and advice on the gym floor.

Becca Baker {Member & Staff}
East Greenwich, Rhode Island

When I first started coming to the gym I was not only new to the area but I also had two small children who had begun attending a local pre-school and I decided to use my newly found time to the benefit of my health. I started putting around with a few weights and burying myself in the movie room (which I love), until finally I had gotten up the nerve to try a class.

Alisa Becker {Member} & Nico Ritirato {Staff}

I've been meaning to email you regarding Nico Ritirato for quite sometime. I joined Healthtrax in September, and after some consideration, decided to try Personal Training. Since Nico was the trainer with whom I had my initial consultation, I felt I should give him a try, as well. Fast forward 6 months. Nico has truly transformed me.

Erin has changed my outlook on working out forever. In the past, I only did cardio exercise.  She has taught me specific weight training routines and body weight training, along with a more effective cardio routine.  The knowledge I have gained and the results from these routines have astonished me. The confidence, how I stand , the strength,how my body has changed.  Being fit and healthy feels Great! I have Erin to thank for all of this, best decision to do personal training with her!

Ellen Thum {Member}

When I first started many exercises were difficult because of my knee but after 4 months I was back to competitive tennis. I had a setback due to a bone spur but once medically cleared to come back I started working with Sandra again and feel stronger than I have in years. I also worked with a nutritionist that has aided me in my weight loss along the way.

Athan Hantzopoulos {Member}
Warwick, Rhode Island

I have always struggled with being overweight throughout my life. After my mother passed away in 2013 from cancer, I started eating “comfort food” to deal with the loss and I gained a lot of weight and my physical appearance drastically changed. I realized that I needed to start and lose weight after looking myself in the mirror one day and realizing how much I had let myself go. I didn’t like to take pictures of myself with friends and family because I was embarrassed about the way that I looked.

Diane Cewe {Member}
North Haven, Connecticut

I initially was reluctant joining the gym because of how I looked.  I was very self conscious of my weight, how I looked and the shape I was in.  The medical practice I work for moved next door to Heakthtrax and several of the management staff came to our building and spoke to us about the benefits of joining the gym.  I was very impressed by them and thought I would give the gym a try.  When I first visited the gym, the staff was absolutely amazing. 

Laura Fredrickson {Member}
Newington, Connecticut

Today I had the pleasure of meeting one of our members Laura Fredrickson for a check in on her progress at Healthtrax Fitness & Wellness. She started her journey with Craig McCabe showing her the facility and making her feel comfortable. After signing up, she meet with Antonio L. Garcia for her Healthy Start Assessment and Inbody570 scan. Antonio L. Garcia went over realistic goals and explain how we can help as a center. I meet with Laura today to rerun the Inbody570 scan and check her progress. As I sat down and talk to Laura I was very impressed with her journey and progress. We patiently waited to see the results of the inbody570 and we both we so excited with the info!!! Laura dropped 54.4 pounds, and 45 pounds of fat. Laura dropped her body fat % by 12.5 %. Her visceral level fat dropped 11 points, from a 20 to a 9!!! Laura dropped 7 pounds of muscle which is to be expected when you dropped that much weight. She can definitely fine tune and get that back. I just wanted to show this process of how things can work when you work the process and have people who are routing for you. We here at Healthtrax Fitness & Wellness are very proud of Laura and wish her nothing but continue success!!! - Matt Wrobel, Newington
