Momentum Personal Trainers


We know that gyms can sometimes be intimidating places. We also know that personal trainers can be intimidating people. The stereotype is out there: Personal trainers are muscle-heads and drill sergeants. They are so super-fit and so super-strong that they can't relate to their clients, especially those clients who are new to gyms, new to exercise and new to nutrition. Personal trainers are expensive. Personal trainers aren't effective. Personal trainers aren't worth it. Well, we're here to tell you that while some personal trainers may fit that description, we at Momentum certainly don't.

We Don't Yell. We Motivate.
We hear it all the time from new or prospective clients: their No. 1 fear if they hire a personal trainer, will be they are pushed too hard, forced to do exercises they're not comfortable with or yelled at when they fail. It's understandable but it's not your experience with Momentum. We strive to create a friendly, fun atmosphere that allows our clients to thrive and grow into their personal training routine. We motivate you. We encourage you to push forward. But we'll never push you too hard, and we'll always listen to your concerns.
