Nicole is an absolutely wonderful trainer and one of the best things to happen to me in 2018.
I come from a background of having had multiple trainers and can honestly say Nicole tops them all.
Why?
1) She takes the time to set up foundation properly so you don't get hurt. Doing things without proper form may have been ok when I was younger, but once you hit 30 and beyond, your body isn't so forgiving
2) She starts slowly and progresses appropriately so you never feel like you dislike working out, in fact you love it because
3) Nicole is truly and genuinely a friendly and caring person who really cares about her clients and their well-being. She isn't trying to make a quick buck by over selling and over promising, but she knows that it's really a matter of consistency and time, and she'll get you to your goals. The friendly chats we have during our sessions are a lovely bonus!
4) The meal plan she provides her clients is one that is realistic, well balanced, doesn't leave you deprived and has the longest list of substitutions I've ever seen! I say this as someone who has graduated from one of Canada's top schools of Nutrition.
5) As I noted I have had several trainers before in several settings, from large gyms to bootcamp like classes and yet Nicole still brings new and challenging moves or ways to activate different muscle groups, which is very exciting
6) Nicole is a mom who has had her own struggles with weight loss and fad diets. This is so important because she knows how big of a mental game it is, and how hard it is as a mom to carve time for yourself, so she really does her best to accommodate you. Not to mention her expertise when it comes to matters of the pelvic floor muscles.
So, in short, while Nicole may not use a lot of the buzz words popular in the industry, this is for good reason. She is truly unique and brings honesty and empathy into the equation, in addition to her training skills, which should bring lasting results, and not just quick and dirty weight-loss which may destroy your metabolism for years to come.
If you're unsure about hiring a trainer, keep in mind that personal training also brings that level of commitment needed to succeed in your fitness journey. I struggled for months to commit even though I'm a nutritionist! I needed someone to be accountable to, and Nicole was that person. I can honestly say I love my training sessions! Maybe not all the excercises hahaha, but she gets me through them.
While I still have a long way to go to achieve my goals, as I had tried so many quick fixes that left me worse off than before, I'm confident that I'm now on the right path with Nicole and have already seen amazing changes in a few short months. From increased energy, to body reshaping, weight loss, increased strength and lastly, yet most importantly, increased confidence, making the decision to stop scrolling on my Instagram feed and go see Nicole was my best decision of the year!
Thanks Nicole!
If I could I would give Nicole 10 stars! I was in a rut that I didn't know how to get out of and thankfully heard about Nicole. She is amazing at teaching you how to workout when you have pelvic and abdominal issues after children. I now can workout symptom free! I.highly suggest any women who is pregnant or has given birth to go see Nicole!
Nicole is amazing, you can tell her anything and everything and you can tell she is a true pro. She has put in the time and research to keep herself ahead of the fitness game, so she can actually program you properly to accomplish all your goals. She is not you're run of the mill personal trainer, she knows what she is talking about, and corrects you personally. I feel like with Nicole by my side, I really am going to accomplish my fitness goals.
Nicole is amazing! She is very knowledgeable and professional. She has helped me with my pelvic floor issues. I highly recommend her services! She is an asset to the community!
Nicole is very easy to get along with and makes her clients feel at ease, no judgement! She is very knowledgeable and is great at modifying different exercises to meet her client's individual needs. I would highly recommend her!
