"Of
course, I could never have recovered so well from my stroke without
working with Tammy. She knows what she is doing and does everything so well. I
appreciated her abilities when I as working out with her before my stroke,
but I really need good care after the stroke and thank goodness she is there to
help me".

"Tammy Robinson and I meet approximately once per week to review my progress,
adjust my routine and discuss my training goals. She keeps the workouts
fresh, challenging, and carefully attuned to my particular abilities and
needs. When I began training with Tammy, my goal was to lose weight and
develop at least a moderate degree of strength. I was significantly
overweight and had no previous strength training of any kind, and was very
skeptical about my chances for success, especially given my age and lack of any
previous training experience. Tammy was the perfect trainer for me.
She helped me set fitness and weight goals that challenged yet did not
intimidate me, and to reach and then exceed those goals on a continuing
basis. With her assistance and support (and, yes, some nagging!), I have
lost approximately 50 pounds, and developed strength and stamina I never
believed possible for me. I no longer have to take medication for high
blood pressure, and have reduced my asthma prevention medication by two
thirds. My only regret is that I did not do this years earlier!"
