Yvonne
My story begins in a place very familiar to many people. My whole life, I was active until I had a child. I became at the forefront of every decision I made, always putting my husband first and not making time for myself. After a tough year of rotator cuff surgery and a total hysterectomy, I could barely lift a gallon of milk, and I had to sit on the floor to put on my clothes. I had no strength at all! And I wasn’t even 50! I had put on 30 pounds and was pretty miserable. After a challenge from a friend to be her accountability partner, my fitness journey began. I lost all the excess weight, got stronger, and am healthier than ever. I have never looked back!
I trained in the gym for 4 years before deciding to get my certification to be a personal trainer. My passion is helping others become the best they can be! I have worked with powerlifters, athletes and seniors. My goal is to help you reach your goals. I listen to what you need and modify training to meet you where you are.

Bio:
Carole’s passion is helping seniors maximize their fitness, taking into consideration any physical limitations her clients may have.
“Over my 28 years as a physical therapist, I saw firsthand how general fitness can make all the difference after an injury. Accidents will happen, but those who were regular exercisers recovered much more quickly than those who were sedentary prior to the accident.”
Carole uses the functional training approach, with most exercises performed while standing. In this way, the whole body works in a coordinated way, like normal daily activities.
