Success Stories

SUCCESS STORIES

When I first began working out, my body could have been described as 5% muscle. I had more fat from from my days as child than I did muscle from my days as an adolescent.  After 5 months of training with Arturo I have made significant muscular gains across all my muscle groups, burned excess fat on my body, and gained the knowledge necessary to one day planning my own workouts.  I highly recomend Arturo as a trainer to anybody who is willing to put in the work and make a change to their life. ~Evan Ebert

After decades of dislocations, with cortisone shots and surgery being the medical suggestions, I decided instead to get a personal trainer.

I’ve been working twice a week with Arturo Espitia for about a year and a half, and not only are my legs stronger, but my upper body and being as well.

I now stand taller with my head higher as I no longer need to watch where every step lands.  I have muscles that surprise me and even find I know how to use them.  I walk up stairs rather than pull myself.  I can stand steady on a rocking boat; get a stack of Fiestaware plates off a second shelf; and hug my nephew so hard he cries, “Uncle.”

Arturo varies my training to keep it interesting.  He has a great eye and ear taking my physical challenges and personality quirks into consideration.  Never do I feel forced to do something I’m not comfortable doing, yet he keeps me motivated to keep trying for more.

Somehow he’s managed to slip squats in on me and, even though I’ve never been able to do them before, I am making “baby-step” headway.

Arturo makes me feel good about the big and baby steps, and I’m the stronger for it.

I have been a client of Arturo’s  since October of 2007 and I have trained with him extensively. His knowledge of personal training and group fitness classes is extensive.

Arturo is very dedicated to his client’s success and therefore is very creative. He keeps up with the latest trends in fitness. Strength, Core, Bosu , Kettle Bells and Cardio have been incorporated into the workout routines to keep them fresh and interesting. He is very good at tailoring a workout to an individual’s specific needs. This is very important as working out can become very routine and tedious.

I have also participated in his group fitness and boot camp classes and they are also challenging and interesting focusing on all the key areas of a complete and total workout routine.

Whether he is working one on one or with a group, I can highly recommend Arturo as a personal trainer.  Aside of his knowledge and expertise he is a great motivator with a sharp sense of humor.
