I have been training with Eric for about 14 months. When I first started I was terrified to do a squat because of how my knees felt but now I am able to do loaded split squats and other exercises I never thought possible. In general, I am able to get through most days pain-free and I’ve even run on the treadmill which I never thought I would do before training with him. My strength and endurance has also made a huge improvement. I used to get exhausted when doing 30-minute workouts but now I am able to complete 60-plus minutes and still have the energy to keep going. One of my goals when we first started training together was to be able to do a push-up. I am happy to say that I can now do that as well as hiking, walking long distances and doing various activities without having any major knee or back pain. I remember a time when I took my kids to the zoo and was is so much pain by the end of the day that I ended up in urgent care!
Working out has also become a big stress reliever and is something that I really enjoy doing. It has helped me regain a lot of my self-confidence. He really cares about his clients and takes the time to build a plan around each person. Although my health issues and injuries have made things difficult at times, he has done a great job working around them and/or helping me to rehab them. Eric is a lot of fun to work with too - he's very positive, upbeat and is a great motivator. He also helped educate me on the importance of food intake and supplementation and how to put a lot of it into practice. I now have the discipline to stop eating when I am full and notice that I don’t snack as much.
Eric is a great trainer and has become a great friend. We joke around and have great conversations - he is super supportive. Although we don’t train as often as before, I have gained a lot of knowledge and am able to do a lot on my own. I have had a great experience with him and would do it a million times over. I would 100% recommend Eric as a your personal trainer.
