Will miss GISW.
I was very happy with the program at GISW in Medford. I had never done weight training of any kind before. I was amazed at the results I achieved through both diet and exercise. I lost 20lbs in 3
months, plateaued during the holidays (my fault) and then lost another 5 lbs in two months. Dan, Sam and Joe are very good trainers. They always challenged me and were very helpful.
I have recently moved and needed to change my gym and am sad to leave. I would highly recommend this location especially to those looking to get started on a fitness program. Good luck!…
Get in Shape for Women--a unique & effective program!.
Well, to begin with, I've tried EVERYTHING!....joined gyms....and never followed through.....signed up for all diet programs you can think of (at least once!) and/or purchased every diet book on the
planet. I hated to exercise, had no idea what to do when I attempted to exercise....and had no motivation to continue working at it. Then, one day, I saw an ad in the local paper for Get in Shape for Women.
I made an appointment, with absolutely no intention of signing up.....none whatsoever! I met with Joe on a Monday morning. He showed me a bit of the exercise program and spent a considerable amount of time discussing the program and diet. I left that morning feeling elated--I signed up on the spot.
I have never looked forward to getting up three mornings a week and getting myself out the door to excercise; however, that's just what I've been doing and enjoying every bit of it.
The studio is bright, clean and fully equipped. Joe and Sean are exceptional trainers. Not only do they give us a diversified exercise session, they make sure that we're doing the exercises properly--they're with you every minute of the workout. This is precisely what I needed. I feel I have a personal trainer. The clients are great--all ages. The atmosphere in the studio is uplifting....friendly, not at all intimidating--very comfortable.
I cannot say enough good things about Get in Shape for Women....I wish there were room to give them 10 stars!
I'm 67 years old, feel totally revitalized. It's the best!…
People make all the difference!.
I am in my late 20s and as my age crept up, so did my weight....
I have spent thousands of dollars on gyms I don't go to and quick fix pills that didn't work. Any excuse, from work, to a hangnail would keep me out of the gym, but keep their fee coming out of my checking acct.
No more excuses. I actually love going to this gym (which is weird because I am not someone who likes to exercise). I workout with people of all ages, abilities, and sizes. Its not a cookie-cutter work out like curves. Been there, done that.
People make all the difference and Sean & Joe are the perfect mix of work hard/play hard. They make it fun, but keep you motivated and push you past what you only thought were your limits. You'll sweat, you'll laugh, you'll be sore... but most of all you'll be proud of yourself!
Your trainers know you, actually know you (unlike the skinny blonde or muscle head behind the counter at the big gyms) and care about your success.
After 3 months I've lost 10lbs, but it looks & feels more like 20 on other programs I've done that don't include weight training and nutrition.
If you love the gym, if you hate the gym, if your not sure yet this is still the right place if you want to drop pounds, tone up, make friends, and feel good about yourself.
I can't even believe I am writing such a great review for a gym instead of a bacon cheeseburger... things change, and it feels great!…
Love working out here!!!.
I have been working out with trainers at different gyms on and off for years and I have yet to find a better team than Sean Griffin and the trainers at GISFW in West Medford. It takes me 40min in
traffic to get there and it's worth every minute! They create such a high energy and motivational environment that you almost forget your working out. At the same time Sean and team are true professionals and keep a close eye to make sure I have the correct form to prevent injury and also see the best results possible.
When you walk in the door everyone is considered equal and there are no snooty attitudes that can be intimidating (especially when you're not feeling so hot in those lycra leggings). I would highly recommend this gym to woman of all ages, shapes and sizes. GISFW will get you to your fitness goals and you'll be SO happy you joined!…
JOIN TODAY. The GISFW in West Medford is one of the best things about living in Medford. Weigh loss has always been an easy task for me once I set my mind to it. Now in my mid-40's I needed some extra help and have found it at this gym. The trainers are highly-skilled, professional and truly care about the clients success. They work with each individual client to create a program that works within your physical limitations while still maintaining a wonderful work-out. For me, I needed to have accountaibility so signing up in the workout book gurantees that I will show up on my alotted day and time. If you want to feel your best and look your best regardless of your age make the time (3 hours a week). You owe it to yourself and your family will thank you because when you feel good and have a new sense of self-respect it trickles down in all aspects of your life. Call or stop by today; you will be happy you did.…
