Here are just a few of our many success stories:

“I had given up my training program for over 6 months due to surgery and a recent move. I was feeling down about my loss of physical conditioning as well as losing my training network of friends and trainer due to my recent move. Finally, I decided I would set out to hopefully find a trainer who could get me back on track. I chose Ben Petitpas initially because of his credentials - BS Degree in Exercise Science, NSCA Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and NASM Certified Personal Trainer.”

“When I first met Ben he was totally empathetic to my situation and reassured me that he would give me a customized routine that would strengthen my weak areas while getting me into top physical condition. Each training session he always asked about any concerns before we started our workout to see if he needed to make any adjustment to my workout for that day. His education, personal athletic history, and research give him the edge on handling any issues that arose during the course of my training. In only 4 months I was not only back, but stronger than before. Thanks Ben.”

Melissa Thomas

“Ben is a very good physical trainer. He sets high goals for his clients. Ben is extremely helpful in designing programs for clients to accomplish their goals. He encourages clients to work at their highest ability and if there are physical limitations, he provides other ways or other exercises to accomplish the goals. His personality is very upbeat and he is funny. We love working out with him….well, maybe we like it best at the end of the workout!! He has helped both of us to strive to do better than the workout before. His motivation has helped both of us to improve our workouts and our physical strength. We have experienced many trainers at some of the best spas and health clubs. We would rate Ben as one of the best.”

Herb & Barbara Shear

“I was always very active through walking 5 miles daily. However, I didn’t see much change in weight and in building muscles. I joined a gym for the very first time. I did not have the experience of working out with equipment. I knew that working with Ben, My personal trainer, I would learn to work out correctly, safely and with results. Ben is very knowledgeable and focuses on using proper form. I became stronger, more confident as he always encouraged me with the “you can do it” attitude. Thank you, Ben. I feel the best I have felt in years and love it when others notice the results.”

Velma Gill

“Ben is a very qualified personal trainer. I came to him several months after I broke my leg and had a marked limp. Ben was always pleasant knowledgeable and persistent. He varied the exercises and our time was well planned out. After two months the strength in my legs has improved greatly and the limp was almost gone. I highly recommend Ben as a personal trainer.”

Jackie Freedman

“Ben is a terrific person and an excellent personal trainer. I cannot speak highly enough about his knowledge and his dedication. His patience and professionalism have brought me a long way in a short period of time.”

Mike Brennan

“In just 12 weeks, Ben has helped me transform my body. I have lost almost 16 pounds and I have been able to drop three dress sizes. I’m now able to fit into jeans that I have not been able to wear since college. There is no way I could have done this on my own. Thanks Ben”

Jen Miller

“After having surgery from a inguinal hernia I needed a personal trainer. I had observed several trainers at the gym, but it was Ben who stood apart from the rest of them. It was Ben’s laid back manner that helped me choose him as the personal trainer that felt comfortable with.”

“Ben did a physical assessment after I explained my concerns regarding my chronic back and hip pain due to osteopinea as well as neck and shoulder stiffness. Then we went to work, although a tough task master, Ben motivated me, pushed me, accepted no excuses, but was always there to give me words of encouragement.”

“Eight months later, I went from a wimp to an athlete. My back pain, along with my hip, neck, and shoulder stiffness was gone. I’m a stronger more, more flexible, and toned up grandmother of ten. Thanks to Ben”

Ellen Karpinsky

“Before, I started an exercise program with Benjamin Petitpas, I was having great deal of difficulty walking, and in fact I needed the assistance of a cane. In just a few months, I have made a significant improvement in my ability to get around and have a drastic improvement in strength in both my upper and lower body. I whole heartily recommended Ben as a personal trainer.”
