I have been a client of Robin for the last 6 yrs.  Originally, I started training so that I could run a Spartan Race.  I was concerned about getting injured.  I have since completed several obstacle courses/events without injury. Robin trains clients for specific events/obstacles but also overall fitness so that no matter what they encounter, the skills are there to complete the course.  Robin starts by understanding the client’s goals and determining their level of fitness.  She makes a plan to help the clients reach those goals working in the gym, or in homes, with small groups or one on one sessions, providing a flexible schedule.

Robin provides a calm inviting atmosphere, with just the right amount of enthusiasm. She is a great motivator, helping clients reach their personal best. She has a special skill in finding just the right exercise that makes the client work just a little harder and knows how far to push the client helping them to reach the next level of fitness.

I believe my fitness level has never been better and I have been able to continue this journey without injury because of Robin’s guidance and support.  As I am aging, it has become more important than ever to be fit.  But Robin will tell you “age is just a number.”  This attitude is infectious, and I continue to reach goals I never would have imagined. Robin truly is the best.

I have done personal training at many places and Robin is by far the best. She creatively and consistently provide safe and challenging workout routines that match my goals and abilities. Since beginning sessions with Robin, my physical fitness has improved and most importantly I feel healthier. Thanks, Robin for making workouts, fun, creative, and rewarding.

 I have been working out with Robin for almost 3 years and it has been the best years of my life. When I first met Robin, it had been a while since I had worked out and I was in a slump. Robin quickly pulled me out of my slump and started to encourage me to do exercises that I had never thought my body was capable of.  With a severe knee injury and tendonitis in my forearms, Robin is always able to modify my workouts for me. She listens to me, watches my form, and checks in with me during each exercise to make sure I am never experiencing any discomfort or pain. I have tried so many different exercise programs, gyms, trainers, etc. but I have never stuck with anything for as long as I have been training with Robin. Her knowledge of technique, form, and exercises is unmeasurable. She has changed my life in so many ways and has made me stronger than I ever thought I could be. I am forever grateful for Robin and Focused Fitness.

Robin has been my trainer for a while now and so far I love our sessions. She makes it fun yet hard but that helps keep me motivated. Robin is also very encouraging and if you need some ideas for healthy meals she’ll look some up for you. If you are looking for a trainer Robin is the best of the best!

I started training with Robin a year and a half ago and have never looked back!  First and foremost her motivation is exceptional since successful training starts with just showing up – you want to show up!  Once you show up Robin encourages you to push yourself harder than you ever thought you could go – she really believes in you.  She makes you believe in yourself.  I have become so much stronger.  I feel so much better, I sleep so much better, I can accomplish so much more.  Each training session with her I am amazed at how far I have come.  Robin has changed my life.  I look forward to each and every training session and will never stop.  I am so thankful for having such a great personal trainer who inspires me every day.

Robin is an amazing trainer and fitness coach. She helped me achieve my OCR goals. Working with her, I went from doing short 5k courses to conquering the Killington Beast, a 15 mile course. Whatever your fitness goals, Robin is a fantastic person to have in your corner.

I started training with Robin at Focused Fitness in January of 2016.  My goal was to better my overall body fitness, which I wasn’t getting from the activities I enjoyed engaging in.  Robin went through a detailed physical assessment process, asked me what my goals were, and what I was willing to do to achieve them.  She developed workouts that were as challenging as they were varied.  Where I used to be “in shape” because I engaged in say running or biking, I can now say that thanks to Robin’s training my entire body gets a workout.  There are no cookie-cutter workouts with Robin and they continually change.  Twice in the last four years, I suffered sports injuries that were going to require surgery.  I told Robin, I didn’t want to lose the momentum while awaiting the surgeries, and both times she developed programs to work around the injury and then post-surgery developed workouts that dovetailed with my physical therapy.    She brings a professional engineering background to her personal training so everything is always well-thought-out.  If you are wondering about the benefits of a particular exercise, just ask and you’ll get a detailed explanation. She’ll also get you engaged with others that she trains and help collectively to push your limits, watch out for the Terrain races. But I think most importantly she takes a real interest in each client and really cares about her clients and making sure they succeed. The relationship doesn’t stop when your workout ends. I mean what other trainer would bring you a bang-up chicken chili while you are recovering from hand surgery in the hospital.  She’s a great trainer and even better friend. I highly recommend her.  

P.S. I’m in great shape today because of her.
