I walked into Training Ground Athletic December 23, 2021, not knowing what to expect, just knowing I needed to invest more time and energy into my health. Now it is July 1, 2022, and I have added 4.6 pounds of muscle and decreased my body fat (at 55 years old). Coach T has incredible patience, I was not coordinated, and balance was so-so. I started with private sessions where we built up my strength, worked on weightlifting techniques, changed eating, and sleeping habits, it’s a life changing process and Coach T pushes you to challenge yourself. When Coach T told me I was ready to move to the small group sessions I was nervous, but it’s the same great workout with the encouragement of others who want you to succeed as much as you do. I continually see improvements in my overall health/fitness. If you are ready to take charge of your health, I highly recommend Training Ground Athletic. Coach T brings incredible knowledge to every workout and pushes you to be healthier and stronger. If you follow her guidance, you will feel better physically and mentally.

The day I walked into this gym was the best day of my senior life. My health is very important to me and I knew I didn't want to age the way I was observing around me, slumped over shoulders, multiple prescriptions, no energy, etc. Coach T took me in hand and brought me to the healthiest I have ever been in my life and I am 70! If you want to age differently than the crowd (her mantra) then you need to check out this gym! A 30 lb. weight loss was the added benefit! This is not just a gym as Coach T is someone who wants to help you become the best version of yourself in every healthy way.

I can never thank my daughter enough for getting me started with Coach T at Training Ground Athletic. It has made such an incredible change in my life - both physically and mentally. Working out with someone who has Coach T's passion to help people strengthen their body is a gift. I've learned so much about the importance of strength and mobility (particularly as we age) and about how what I eat impacts my health and well-being. An added benefit is the final recovery from two years of frozen shoulder, without ever aggravating it further. My husband and I brag about TGA all the time and how about it has changed (and likely extended) our lives. Highly recommend TGA to anyone looking to improve their fitness at any age and from any starting point.

I have trained with Coach T at the Training Ground Athletic for almost two years and couldn't be happier with it! Coach T customizes each athletes workout and weight ranges so that everyone is on target to hit their own personal goals. It's like having a personal trainer in a group class setting and you can truly feel that Coach T cares about each and every one of her clients. She has created a strong family of athletes of all ages at the Training Ground Athletic, and you will not find a better community of like-minded people to work out with. Everyone is very supportive of each other's goals, and the community mentality really helps to keep you accountable! I am not only stronger and leaner since joining TGA, but I have also become mentally tougher thanks to Coach T's excellent training style (which is what keeps me coming back!). I always feel confident that she is challenging me to lift the heaviest amount of weight for my personal goals, and that she is watching my form so that I don't injure myself. The accountability is what keeps me focused and it is truly the most important part for me. The Training Ground Athletic is a strong, supportive community of athletes of all levels encouraging each other to become the strongest versions of themselves, and I could not imagine training anywhere else!

Once I was forty four, my usual Pilates, yoga, and cardio workouts weren't achieving the results that I wanted. How lucky I was to find Coach T and TGA! It is the hardest I've ever worked in my life, but I love it and the gains in strength and muscle that I've achieved over the last six months. Coach T focuses on all aspects of training, mobility, strength, and the accessory work needed so everything is in place for you to be the strongest, fittest version of you. Coach T is an incredible resource for better health and fitness. She shares her wealth of knowledge with us so we can make changes outside the gym to support our training efforts in the gym.

Coach T ROCKS! I have been training in her small group classes for just over a year. I love her know-how, the focus on technique and safe training, her passion for helping me get to my best self. It is hard. She pushes you. And you grow stronger, more toned, fit and confident. The health and lifestyle coaching along with a super supportive team are helping me to AGE DIFFERENTLY THAN THE CROWD.

Going to TGA has been the game changer in my strength training. I avoided strength training for fear of injury and being alone with no one to guide me except youtube videos and random articles on the web. But here I have a community and accountability to keep on training. Coach T is motivational and a great role model of fitness. She consistently provides education on muscles and proper form so the information does click and I got results! I see my body composition changes and so do my coworkers, family, and friends since I've started weightlifting here. I have lost fat and gained muscle. This place has been a godsend for my health journey and I recommend it to anyone who wants to do strength training in a safe environment with a team of other people who share and support the goals of strength and consistency.

I have been an active member of TGA for about 5 years now, and it is difficult to accurately summarize my positive training experience. I have worked as a trainer and alongside trainers at commercial gyms, and Coach T's expertise far surpasses any other coaching experience I have had. She emphasizes a focus on a well-rounded training program including metabolic conditioning, client-specific programming to increase strength, mobility, flexibility, nutrition, and encourages a positive team atmosphere. After many years, I still look forward to my daily workouts and opportunity to become more educated in terms of my overall health and well being. I'm getting older, but continue to build strength, remain mobile, and feel great! I would recommend TGA to anyone whether you are new to the training world, or a veteran!

I have been training with Coach T for about 7 months, and I have seen major improvements in my overall health and well being. What I love about TGA is the consistency and the sense of community. I work out at TGA 3x a week and I always look forward to class! Coach T and Dave are very deliberate in how they put together the strength training programs. In addition to increasing strength, I've changed the way I look at my nutrition & lifestyle thanks to TGA. I now eat to fuel my workouts and build muscle. I highly recommend TGA to anyone that wants to make a change in their overall health and fitness!

So glad I stumbled across this training gym! It can be nerve wrecking going to a new gym but I felt welcomed the second I walked in. Workouts are tailored to your fitness goals and I actually enjoy waking up early to go train! The workouts are KILLER but effective! Thanks Coach T 💪🏽

Not sure why Patti's name on there but it's Mike here..... If you've ever been frustrated with #1 Getting in shape #2 Staying in shape #3 Not having a support system in all this Then you gotta visit Coach T and Coach Dave at TGA! Been going here for quite a few years, turning 64 in December and I'm healthier and stronger than ever in my life. We just finished a 5-day "No Sugar Challenge" and the community support to reset our diets is not like anything you'll find. If you put in the effort and really want results then get an appt with T and Dave and get started. If you stick with this "healthy community" you'll not only get in great shape but also meet like-minded peers all focused on the same thing- growing older while being stronger and healthier than anyone else. Ya gotta get TGA in your life!

Coach T at TGA is simply the best! She has taught me so much about what a healthy lifestyle is!! I’ve been going for two years, and my entire body composition is completely changed! I have more muscle and less body fat and more importantly- I feel incredible! I’ve lost 10% body fat and increased muscle which is so hard to do at the age of 57 and post menopause! Not only do we have Coach T helping us with meeting our goals, she is teaching us how to become the best version of ourselves!!! I’m so thankful and can’t wait to keep growing and getting stronger!! 💪🏼 thank you Coach T!

TGA provides a personal professional weight training experience for each client. Over the past year, I have seen my body, strength and confidence change under the excellent coaching of Theresa and Dave. The group classes are small so I don't "lost" as I have in big fitness centers. They also offer private training sessions so you can fine tune and strengthen specific skills. Theresa and Dave are 100% invested in your strength training goals.

Theresa is the most thorough, intelligent, thoughtful personal trainer I’ve ever met! As a middle aged woman with hormone transitions and body image challenges, she knows how to motivate, support, and guide change! I highly recommend her!
