I have been going to the gym for about a year and half now and started working out with Brenda about 8 months ago. I have started a new chapter in my life of doing obstacle runs for charity. Her creative and out of the box thinking has challenged me in ways a “typical” trainer wouldn’t have. I finally found myself looking forward to getting to the gym, which was difficult at times; the couch was so appealing after a long day at work. The more I learned about her story the more inspired I became to get fit and…

I am 63 years old and started training 3 times a week with Brenda last fall. Working with her I have increased my strength, balance and my overall health. Brenda is very knowledgeable about fitness and the human body. She’s friendly and explains things thoroughly. I appreciated being coached on the proper and safe way to perform exercises that met my needs. Brenda has also been sensitive to my physical abilities and paced my sessions to meet my needs. She has been patient, positive and has always encouraged me to move forward toward my goals. Simply put, Brenda is the…

Strength building.  Be strong.  Be stronger.  That’s how I feel right now after training with Brenda.  I have had many trainers over the years and this is the first time that I felt like I was training to build who I am. Brenda assessed me when we started working together to identify where I needed to focus, and then expertly created a plan to work on those areas.  She also explains everything so I understand them and can apply the lessons not only for training, but I translate it to how I walk up stairs, sit at my desk and…

If you’re looking for a trainer that is dedicated to you achieving your goals, you should pick Brenda. Being an athlete herself, she understands the importance of goal setting and making sure that the goals set are achieved. Her commitment to seeing her clients always succeed surpasses any trainer I’ve ever had previously. She helped me recover from an elbow injury I had sustained, with my goal to do 10 push ups again from my toes. Over the 15 training sessions I had with her, I not only grew stronger in every aspect but by the end, I was able…

Over 3 years ago, I asked Brenda to help me get in shape for my WFX- fit test. The test is required for my job as a wildland firefighter, and I was worried that my poor level of fitness (due in large part to my sedentary, student lifestyle, and also because of back problems,) would lead to failure. She sat down with me and came up with an intuitive plan. Using exercise and nutrition, she explained what would be necessary. She worked with my crazy schedule, and was there with me every step of the way…. literally. We did a…

In 2016 I had a goal. I wanted to become an ultra marathon runner. I enjoyed running but my body would not let me get to the distances that I wanted. I asked Brenda to make me a training program to help me to achieve that goal. My first race was the Deadmonton 6 hour ultra. My low goal for this race was 40km and my high goal was 50km in the 6 hour stretch. I started running and quickly realized that all that training was paying off!  I blew past my high goal and ran 53.6km in 6 hours…
