After several years of dieting/exercising on my own and not getting the results I wanted, I contacted Heather. Best decision I ever made! I only wish I had found her years and years ago! I've been working with her for two years now and she's just the best! Her experience and knowledge of everything to do with training has been incredible in helping me reach my goals fast and with much more success than I could have hoped for. She's been understanding of my physical limitations and she creates a plan to gradually get past them at a rate that's comfortable and effective. She creates a cardio/weights program for me that specifically targets areas that I want to work on and I'm incredibly grateful for all the training knowledge that she shares with me... all the lessons that have made me realize I was going about it all wrong for so many years. There's so many perks to training with Heather-- she has a private studio, she always changes up your workout to keep things interesting and she gives you one-on-one time to get to know you and where you're at on your journey. And the best part is that she's with you on that journey-- she doesn't skip steps and she doesn't push you harder than you can go. She has that amazing skill of knowing what you're really capable of at any given time and helping you to get there.

After going through one of the most stressful years of my life (2014-2015) and gaining 30 pounds in a matter of only 6 months, I knew I had to make changes to my lifestyle and start exercising and eating better but had no idea actually how to exercise or eat better to meet my goals. I started with asking google for the "best personal trainer in Joliet" and Heather's website and reviews popped up. After reading through everything and being thoroughly impressed, I contacted her and set up an assessment. BEST DECISION I EVER MADE!

Heather is very easy to connect with, and I immediately felt open and at ease with her the first time we met. I worked with her in person for 2 years (I continue to do her online training since she's moved) and have lost 30 pounds and over 40 inches to date!

She is extremely knowledgeable as a personal trainer, and I'm always impressed how she pinpoints exactly which muscles are weak. She customizes your exercises based upon your ability and focuses on strengthening those weaker muscles first to ensure you are able to have correct form when you move on to more intense routines. In my case, one of the things she found that was that my knees always liked to turn in when doing we started doing step-ups, squats and lunges. We worked together over months to finally correct that!

During my sessions, Heather always managed to make me laugh while getting me to work hard at the same time. She is always introducing you to new exercises and no two sessions are ever the same. That definitely keeps you moving forward and keeps you from getting bored!

Beyond exercise itself, Heather realizes the importance of diet in achieving fitness goals and living a healthy life. She gives you a customized meal plan to follow each week and works with you to find the best ways to incorporate healthy eating into your life. She will change calorie and macronutrient amounts based upon your progress and fitness goals (i.e. increasing protein intake goal for muscle building phases).

One of things I most appreciated is that she is flexible and understanding if unforeseen circumstances come up and you have to reschedule. She also has a wide variety of training hours which was great for me because my work schedule and shifts are different every week. Moreover, she is easy to contact outside of one-on-one sessions for any questions or advice you need regarding exercise or nutrition plans and always responds in a timely manner.

Heather is a wonderful person in addition to being a gem of a personal trainer. She has helped me to achieve my goals and lead a healthier life, and I'm so incredibly grateful for her expertise and guidance! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trainer regardless of fitness level!

Having had one knee and two hip replacements, I was a total wreck when I started with Heather. I still had lower back pain, was visiting the chiropractor twice weekly for relief and sleeping in a lift chair. I struggled getting into and out of my car - blah. The strength and balance that I needed to work my farm wasn't returning and did not seem possible.

Heather plotted a very careful course. Baby steps felt impossible. With Heather's encouragement and persistence, I did it. Muscles that refused to activate became a challenge to be overcome. Her in depth knowledge of body mechanics led to results I did not think was possible.

20 months with Heather has given me a long list of benefits: weight loss; increased stamina and strength; much improved self image; no pain; sleeping in my bed; the return to an active lifestyle with my young adult sons. I still have much work to do but I'm on my way.

Heather is not only an amazing trainer, she is an amazing person. Each workout was unique and I never knew what to expect. She always kept it interesting by changing our routine and introducing new exercises. One of my favorite things about training with Heather was the comfort level I had with her. Since the training is one on one, she gets to know you, your strengths, your weaknesses, and anything in between she can learn about you. She uses that knowledge to meet you where you are and encourage/push you towards meeting your goals. She helped me lose over 30 pounds and 30 inches.

I found Heather at a time in my life (preparing for my wedding) when my stress was maxed out. She offered more than just training; she gave me advice about sleep, balance, minimizing stress, the importance of getting enough calories and the importance of taking time away from 'busy life' to focus on myself. She also has a great sense of humor and we shared plenty of laughter throughout our training. I was blessed to find Heather and I'm grateful I had the opportunity to train with her. If you're serious about meeting your health goals - connect with Heather today.
