Client Success Stories

“She sees the potential.”

"I feel that I am much stronger than I used to be. Being held accountable has really helped me achieve my 1st goal which was just showing up. Michelle pushes me to go to the next level. I would have never done that on my own. I would get comfortable and say that is good enough. She sees the potential that you can do more."

– S.G., 1:1 client since 2019

“I never feel pressured to do more than I can handle.”

"I am pushed farther than I would go on my own without hurting myself. I have many prior injuries from broken bones, and from swimming, and Michelle expertly works around them. Additionally I do not like working out, so having a set schedule with someone keeps me accountable. The most helpful thing about training with Michelle is that I get very good workouts, but I never feel pressured to do more than I can handle."

– Greg, 1:1 client since 2021

Frequently Asked Questions

Some seasons are certainly busier than others, which may bump your workouts down in priority but my approach focuses on building long-lasting habits in your current life. If we wait until we’re ready to start, or until we aren’t busy, we could be waiting a very long time!

Absolutely! Nutrition Coaching will provide guidance in incorporating small, manageable additions or changes into your current diet so it won’t feel like a total life overhaul when paired with weekly workouts!

Not at all! You definitely do not need to work out before we work together. We’ll work on the basics of strength training together, no matter your fitness level!

First, it depends! It depends on your goals, your schedule, your body, and so much more. But also, we will focus a lot on behavior-based goals! Meaning, instead of just an end goal (like hiking a mountain, for example) we will set smaller behavior goals along the way (like completing a strength workout two days a week). Let’s discuss this more in depth! Send an email to michelle@morethanthebarbell.com to set up a discovery call.
