Ernie

“I’ll admit—I only came in because my wife said it would be good for me. I was skeptical, but six months later, I know she was right. I’m retired, but my life is still full of adventure: playing with my grandkids, working on my model trains, and playing rec league softball. Lately, those things were getting harder. Running was tiring, and my back would ache just standing at my workbench. Now, not only is my batting and running better than it’s been in years, but I’m even thinking about picking up soccer again. I’ve learned how to manage my back pain, and I’m practicing the essentials—getting off the ground, standing up without effort, and going from one push-up to several. I want to keep doing what I love, and now I’ve got the tools to do it.”

Wendy

“Yoga kept me healthy for years, but I started to notice that my knees and shoulders needed a bit more support. Walking was becoming uncomfortable, and I was worried about mobility and balance. Since starting personal training at Guelph personal training, my knee pain is gone when I walk, my shoulder mobility has improved, and I feel confident walking the forest trails near my home without fear of falling. This style of training met me where I was and gave me exactly what I needed for this stage of life. I feel strong, capable, and more at ease in my body again.”


Andy

“After three knee surgeries and years of frustration at the gym, I came to Shift looking for a better approach. I wanted to keep biking, golfing, and helping my neighbors during those heavy winter snowfalls. In just a year and a half, I’ve seen major improvements in my knee flexibility, strength, and cardio. I get on and off my bike with ease now, hit the golf ball farther, and feel more capable overall. Training at Shift has given me the results and direction I was missing.”

Julie

“With a demanding job and full schedule, I wasn’t making time for myself or my health. Shift made fitness simple and accessible—no extra energy spent planning workouts or wondering what to do. Now I train consistently each week and feel stronger, more energized, and more resilient. I'm seeing improvements in my resting heart rate, VO2 max, and muscular endurance. Training here has made it easy to prioritize my long-term health.”
