Years ago, I took a class with Michelle, which started me on my first ever experience with using weights. Flash forward to COVID, where I became sedentary, depressed and had to work around a back injury. Starting to move again seemed impossible. Michelle created a very doable plan to get me moving. At first, I was nervous - my goals were small, and she was so strong. Would she want to help someone like me? The answer was an absolute yes. She was amazing and met me where I was at. She has never once judged me. She is always there to help, whether I’m sending a pic to ask if my form looks right or to add on to my plan when I feel stronger. And yes, I feel stronger!!! It feels so good to accomplish something that seemed so difficult at first! I highly recommend Freeman Fitness no matter where you are on your fitness journey. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d3760698496c460038a974/297fe88d-6c71-4e47-a63f-601630191290/ellen.jpg Testimonials - Ellen Teacher, EMT, Firefighter I planned to run a marathon, I had huge goals. I started to work with Michelle. That was one of the best decisions I ever made. It turned out that I did not run a marathon, I trained and completed two half marathons. It was Michelle that guided me through the stretching, the switching of training options, improving my diet to get me to the goal of running the races without injury. More importantly she listened to me - concerns about flexibility, strength, weight and diet. I can be repetitive, (sorry Michelle). She allowed me to be a little gentler with myself while still working toward my goals. She stressed that 1. It is ok to reset, 2. It is ok to rest. 3. It is ok to blow it out of the park. There are so many different wins. Michelle reminded me that. Michelle is always there to help if you start to struggle, whether it is with nutrition or training. She is 1. Never ending support 2. Full of researched ideas to redirect, and 3. A wonderful support person. My newest goal is to test for Firefighter “1”. I had no idea how hard it would be. I turned to Michelle - I told her of the goal and my fear of not getting strong enough for the physical demands of being a firefighter. And of course she researched the physical demands and came up with a plan that works for me. I am getting stronger by the week, and I am celebrating my wins. I continue to win because of Michelle. I win because she researches, plans, and shares her knowledge in such a kind and encouraging way. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d3760698496c460038a974/1641988296263-MA0MY2NZR2S2C6OM3W04/unsplash-image-AnVB92rOl60.jpg Testimonials - Lauren Powerlifter, Rugby Player I started working with Michelle 2 or so years ago, simply because I needed help creating a lifting routine. Little did I know working with her would make me fall in love with powerlifting and getting stronger! Everyday I’m amazed at what my body can do and how much weight I can lift, and I owe it all to Michelle. She is always encouraging, but challenges you to push your limits because she knows you can do it - even though she knows I may not like her the next couple days when I’m sore. Anyone who is on the fence about getting into weight lifting, I cannot recommend working with Michelle enough. She will help with a routine that works for you and will be there to cheer you on every step of the way. She helped me change my life! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d3760698496c460038a974/1641989205169-Q67L5ODGPKFS5T50D6X5/unsplash-image-_A7WLos9RfU.jpg Testimonials - Laura Marathon finisher & determined runner I reached out to Michelle when I was struggling with fatigue midway through my marathon training. She was attentive and responsive, listened to my concerns and provided useful feedback and advice about how and when I should be fueling. I saw results right away! My energy increased and I successfully completed my first marathon! Her support was invaluable and provided me with the confidence I needed to get through race day.
