“Shed 5% to 6% of my body fat within the first 6 months”

“Beth Brake has been my personal trainer since November 2001. At the time I first started seeing Beth, I had just gotten engaged and wanted to firm and tone my body before my wedding. I had always exercised (ie. walking, treadmill, aerobics classes) but I had never worked with weights. Beth developed a customized routine for me, combining both cardio and weights, that helped me shed 5% to 6% of my body fat within the first 6 months. By the time of my wedding at the end of June 2002, I was receiving positive comments from family and friends regarding the muscle lines in my arms, legs and back.

I continued seeing Beth after my wedding and then became pregnant 6 months later. Beth worked with me throughout my entire pregnancy and I credit her for my easy labor. She provided me with yoga videos and on her own time she researched exercises that were appropriate for my condition. She encouraged me to maintain a cardio routine 4 to 5 days a week while working out with her once a week. I believe this routine not only eased my labor, but also helped me shed the 25 lbs. I gained during my pregnancy.

While a lot of people may choose to leave their personal trainer after getting the kind of results I have, I chose to continue working with Beth each week. She does a great job of changing up the exercise routines so I do not get bored and she challenges me with increased weight when she senses that I'm ready. She also has introduced me to balancing exercises, which are great for toning the abs and back. I had a lot of back problems after the birth of my son and Beth has helped me work through these by strengthening the muscles in my back.

I would highly recommend Beth's personal training and coaching services. I have been extremely pleased with the results she has given to me over the past 3 ½ years. I was so pleased that I recommended her to four of my friends who all began going to her as well.”

“I have lost over 30 pounds and countless inches”

“What I first noticed about Beth Brake as a trainer and coach was her professionalism. She is completely focused on her clients and their success. She monitors my progress to make sure I get the most out of every exercise. She adapts the exercises to focus on areas where I need work. Everything she does is aimed at getting me the best possible results from my effort.

Beth Brake is an outstanding trainer not only for her knowledge and professionalism, but for her inter-personal skills that allow her to find the appropriate kind and level of exercise for each of her clients. I have been working with Beth for over 6 years now, and I can tell you that she has been able to adapt my routines repeatedly in order to keep me interested and motivated. She is able to push me, without being annoying.

What I find particularly unique about Beth is her sense of “the teachable moment”. There are times when I am not motivated and feeling lazy. Beth is able to help me work through those times WITHOUT making me feel guilty about my lack of motivation. This skill of Beth's is what has allowed me to keep coming back for 6 years.

Over those 6 years, I have lost 30 some pounds and countless inches. I feel better about myself and my body. I couldn't have done it without her.”

“I look forward to my sessions with Beth both for body and spirit”

“As a woman in her 70's, I believe in keeping the body fit. Beth Brake has been my trainer for many years and I've achieved all the results I set out to with her and then some. She encourages me by extending my limits – reps – and weight – while always taking care not to strain body parts that are aging. She has excellent credentials, good equipment, and a gentle encouraging manner. I respect her abilities and credit Beth's persistence in keeping me strong and healthy and active despite encroaching years. I look forward to my sessions with Beth both for body and spirit – she supports and strengthens both.”
