I have been training with Dale for just over a year. My goal is to arrive at 40 in the best shape of my life--and by the time I get there, I'll have made strength training a habit that I can keep sustaining for years to come.
Before I started with Wikidfit, I was already a member at a gym chain in Boston and I considered signing up for their personal training, but I didn't like the format: it was too formulaic, too expensive and their trainers were too inexperienced. I wanted to find someone who could engage my head while I learned; I didn't need someone to simply sound motivating while they walked me through a set of exercises.
Dale's style was exactly what I was looking for: he explains the theory behind what he is doing. He works with each person differently, depending on their goals (yes, even when working with multiple people at a time). He focuses on form and proper mechanics--even after a year I still have much to learn! Each workout is different and I usually leave every 45 minute session feeling like I put everything I had into it.
A year later I am stronger, I have built a healthy habit and I'm continuing to learn--it has been a great match.
