Testimonial:

This summer, after the prodding of another SHAPE client and success story, I made a very significant decision – to train twice a week at SHAPE. My goal was to eliminate hip and back pain, pain which surfaced five years ago when I flew off steps during a freezing rainstorm.

Shawn gave me exercises to do on my own and then Sender started training me. After a few sessions, Sender passed me on to Mike who has been, as I joke with my husband, the next best thing since my husband. I say that only insofar as Mike has made it his mission to restore me to my former athletic and pain-free self.

With Mike’s coaching, my pain has significantly reduced and my physical endurance has dramatically improved. Mike is undoubtedly a rare combination: his wholehearted dedication, infectious enthusiasm, positive energy, and relentless passion have made training with him enjoyable. I always look forward to my workout sessions with him, despite their gruelling intensity. I especially relish the euphoria that follows.

Mike’s dedication goes beyond the gym. When I went on a vacation this summer, he gave me a training program so I would not lose any of the gains I had made under his instruction. I look forward to future gains and am confident that with Mike’s training, my pain will be entirely eliminated.

Thanks,
Jenny Lewis
