“Natalie built a training program to fit my lifestyle, mindful of my individual schedule, with flexibility to fine-tune and make adjustments weekly… In addition to the high-caliber training plan, Natalie includes nutrition and hydration goals, offers insight into effects of hormones on fitness, and emphasizes the ‘intangibles’ in overall wellness. Her knowledge, education, experience and passion for helping others makes her hands down one of the BEST in the field!”

After completing a Marathon, I started working a 6-Pack Personalized Training Program at Runners’ Edge. Natalie customizes workouts to each individual’s needs and goals. I enjoy the demonstration videos that Natlie provides for each exercise. I have a new confidence in the gym that I had not possessed before.”

I am in my early 40s and am interested in addressing the muscle and bone loss that can happen at this age. Natalie was so knowledgeable about working with female physiology and how our hormonal cycles can affect our training. I am an active person, but not an athlete in a particular sport, and she was able to explain the reasoning behind her suggestions. She was particular about my posture for weight lifting and had some very helpful adjustments to address any discomfort that arose. I’m feeling great and no injuries! I’ve noticed improved mood and my pants are fitting better, although weight loss was not my goal. Natalie was so positive, encouraging and cheerful in each of our sessions, both in person and virtual. I’m grateful for her guidance and for getting me organized in a way that was tailored to my needs, timeframe and ability

When I signed up for Trevor’s strength training class for skiers, my goal was to increase my strength and balance for skiing and similar activities. More generally I wanted to begin the ski season stronger and more balanced than when I stopped at the end of last season. The structure of the class, which focused on exercises requiring minimal equipment, really worked for me as I could continue the workouts on my own. In order to get the most out of the class, I tried to go inline skating or Nordic skiing after each class so that I could place intent and focus on the areas covered in the class. The result was exhilarating. I felt supercharged and I think my skiing this season has reflected that. I would not hesitate to sign up for another class through Runner’s Edge. You all have changed my life for the better. Thank you!
