THE O3 TESTIMONIALS
Charleen S.
I came to O3 Health and Fitness because I had tried everything else to lose weight and I was at the end of my rope. I needed to lose the weight not only to look better, but more importantly for my health. I knew that I needed to try something that I have never done before. I have worked out in the past, but really didn’t know what I needed to do and how much of it, to lose the weight. I met and started this journey with Wendy Roche. I have been working with Wendy for 2 month and I’m so excited to say that I have lost 15 pounds, 14 inches, and 1.6% body fat!! This is the first Christmas season that I did not gain weight! The best part for me is that Wendy believes I can do it, makes me have the confidence to keep pushing. She doesn’t just tell me to do something; she educates me on why I need to do, and what muscle groups it works. She always encourages me when I think I can’t do something. I am doing things that I never dreamed I could do, and I am learning so much. I am so grateful for Wendy and O3 Heath and Fitness. I can’t wait to see how much more I can accomplish!

In January, some friends and I planned a trip to Peru to hike the Inca trail to Machu Picchu. Since I had never worked out a day in my life, I decided that working with a trainer would be the best way to be prepared for this trip.
After looking into many gyms in the area, I chose to train with Jay at O3 Health and Fitness. I loved the idea of training in a private environment yet still having access to the equipment on a regular basis.
Soon after my training began, I could already see a difference in my balancing skills and calf and shoulder muscles. The best part was that I was sleeping better and noticing a major difference in my daily activities. Even my friends and family saw a major difference in my looks and attitude.
Jay kept the workouts fresh and interesting by having new and different series of workouts every time we met. He also helped me learn more about daily nutrition and how to use food to help in building muscle and loosing weight.
Not only did I gain muscle and shed some of those love handles, but Jay helped to push me further than I had ever imagined. It was very satisfying learning to successfully complete an exercise.
In September I completed a four day hike on the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. It was a grueling hike full of steep rocks, long downhills and extremely difficult uphills. But the feeling of completing this trail was one of great pride and satisfaction. I know that if I had not trained with Jay at O3, I would have not have had the muscle, energy or stamina to keep going in order to accomplish my goal of completing the Inca Trail.

I first started training at O3 Health and Fitness because I wanted to get in shape for my wedding day (and let's be honest, look good in my dress). In working with a personal trainer at O3 Health and Fitness I feel I have not only achieved my goal, but also much more. Before personal training at O3, I tended to reach fitness plateaus and I just couldn't get beyond a certain level. I have always been a runner who tried to throw in some weights and crunches, but I was lacking a true strength training program which has proven to be the key to taking me to that next level.
My trainer, Jay, listened to my goals and created a challenging, diverse exercise program that was individually tailored to meet these goals. I have been amazed at how much more I am capable of now, and especially how much more I am capable of with an expert challenging and encouraging me. Jay has helped me push my personal fitness limits, gaining confidence inside and outside the gym. In the months leading up to the big day, I have watched my body gain muscle tone and definition. I have also learned so much about fitness and a healthy diet, that it will help me maintain these results well beyond my wedding. I have decreased my overall body fat, I am stronger then I have ever been, and most importantly I feel great!
Planning a wedding can get a little crazy, and working out at O3 Health and Fitness is so much fun and a great stress releiver. I am so thankful that my personal trainer and all of O3 Health and Fitness have helped me reach my fitness goals for the wedding, and I look forward to continuing my personal training after the wedding too! I would highly recommend O3 Health and Fitness to any bride; their friendly staff will go above and beyond to help you reach your personal fitness goals and feel great (as all brides should) on your wedding day. Thanks Jay and all of the O3 Health and Fitness staff!

I started my fitness journey with O3 in January with the expectation of personalized help in losing weight and becoming fit and healthy. What I have gained (and lost!) in the past seven months has been more than I could have ever imagined.
For 20 years, I have struggled with my weight, using different approaches with limited to unsuccessful end results. O3 and my personal trainer, Keith, have changed that for me. Keith has created a unique workout to fit my body and goals, drawing on his expertise, technical knowledge and real desire to help his clients achieve goals – ones that are stated and ones that are uncovered along the way. The workouts are never boring and always challenging. Additionally, the O3 philosophy of balance: exercise, nutrition and hydration have become part of my daily lifestyle and have made this journey all the more successful. In just seven months, I have lost 70 pounds and gone from a size 22W to a 12. I’m still on the journey, however; because of Keith and O3 Health and Fitness, I now have the confidence to train harder and push myself further than I ever have before.
