Testimonials

Dietrich and I have been training for the last couple of months. He is an amazing trainer and an incredible person. He is always devising new, interesting, effective, and YES, FUN workouts. I have been weight training for the last couple of years, and at the age of 58, I am really proud of what I have accomplished, but in my short time with Dietrich, I have increased both my endurance and the amount of weight I can lift.  I feel really toned and strong. We talk about goals and how I am going to reach them. He inspires me to really feel that I can and I have. Thank You…..

I’ve always liked lifting heavy weight, but I didn’t do it sensibly. For years I would over train and wind up blowing out my knees and shoulders. However, in one just year of training with Dietrich, I have not only TRIPLED the amount of weight I can press but have not had one ounce of pain!  On the leg press, Dietrich has taken me, smartly, sensibly, and incrementally from 270 lbs all the way to 830 lbs -- beyond my wildest dreams and still building!

Dietrich is the “LEGMASTER,” believe me!

It would be very easy to make this testimonial about me, because I have improved my fitness level immensely in the nearly three years I have worked with Dietrich. But this should be about him. Despite his own incredible fitness accomplishments and knowledge base, Dietrich works continuously to make himself a better trainer. I don’t know of anybody who attends more classes and workshops. Dietrich then takes that experience and knowledge and shows up at every session prepared and ready to go. He designs workout programs of 4-to-6 weeks duration with specific goals in mind. When a program is finished, Dietrich has another 4-to-6 program ready to go. These programs are coordinated so that you see constant improvement in strength, duration, or both. My body is continually challenged, with no fitness plateaus or boring sessions. He helps turn weaknesses into strengths, concentrates on avoiding injury,  and is very conservative with any injury that might occur. I strongly recommend you try Dietrich, except at 6:00 a.m. Mondays and Wednesdays. That’s my time.

Training has been part of my life since high school. I have been training with Dietrich since July of 2009 and I have found that his unique ability to inspire his clients to achieve their goals is one of his best attributes. Each session that I have had has a different format and Dietrich's unique style makes me want to achieve more than I ever thought was possible. Just when I think I've hit my limit Dietrich is there to give me the motivation to push harder. I never thought I would look forward to running stairs with a weighted vest, pull-ups,push ups, and lets not forget the "wheel" . Thank you for giving me the confidence to achieve my goals.
