Kelly Johnson Fitness

For years I enjoyed working out, lifting weights, and just being active in general. Unfortunately a few years ago I developed bulging discs in my lower back. During a period of about 2 years I was unable to do many of the activities that used to love. After bouncing around a bit I found a great chiropractor that was able to get me healthy enough to resume some of my old activities. She suggested that I try working out with a personal training, and in particular she suggested Kelly.
To be honest I was a bit nervous, as I had tried resuming working out in the past only to re-​injure my back. But my chiropractor knew Kelly well and said that we was very knowledgable and trusted her.
I worked with Kelly for several months, and she did a great job. She kept the workouts varied, so they never got boring. She also was great pushing me hard, while at the same time not aggravating my back. If at anytime something didn’t feel quite right I would tell her and she would either correct my form, or come up with an alternative exercise for me. The best part of it is that she was able to help me strengthen my back and core, so I haven’t had any significant back issues since then.
In summary Kelly is great to work with, and I’d suggested her to anyone that’s looking for a personal trainer.

A few months ago, I injured my back and didn’t know how to safely exercise on my own. When I started looking for a trainer, I figured I’d find someone to get me through my back pain, pick up some new exercises and see him/​her every week or so to keep on track. While I’m sure she’s capable of that approach, I can’t imagine cutting back on my time with Kelly because she has made such a difference with my body.
I found Kelly through Groupon. When I read about her background in kinesiology and patient rehab, I figured she’d know what to do without hurting me further. I reached out to her to make sure that she would work with someone with lower back pain and she seemed so enthusiastic about being able to help me that I was confident moving forward with her.
From the beginning, Kelly was easy to talk to and authoritative without being intimidating. She is also very adaptable. My initial worry was about my back, but I have other health problems too. If I mention that something is bothering me before a workout, she will change up the exercises on the fly and I’ll still feel like I worked everything without aggravating anything. I’ve seen her twice a week for four months now and we’ve never done the same workout, plus there’s usually one or two new exercises or variations per session.
It’s not just that she’s creative, she really understands how the body works. She knew exactly what to strengthen to make my back pain subside within a couple of weeks. Even when I sprained my ankle a few weeks ago, severely enough that I thought it was broken, Kelly found ways around it that still had me building up my lower body. Less than two months later, I’m doing many of the same types of leg exercises involving the ankle at a similar level as before the sprain. Kelly kept me from being overly cautious and enabled me to move forward appropriately without fear.
I’ve worked with other trainers over the years, so I knew the benefits of finding someone to push you, learning new techniques and truly dedicating yourself to a time to workout by making a commitment to another person. Kelly goes beyond all of that. She strikes the perfect balance where I’m relieved when the workout is over because I’m exhausted, but I still can comfortably move afterward and I’m excited when it’s time for my next session. A big part of this is, through her positive attitude, genuine goodness and many interests, it’s easy to spend time with her. You’re spending an hour working out with someone — if they’re telling you what to do and the rest of the time you’re just focusing on getting through an exercise or making awkward small talk, it’s going to make a difficult activity that much harder.
I’ve become a huge advocate for personal trainers for anyone having difficulty getting motivated or figuring out how to work through an injury, but there are few that have the knowledge and personality that are needed to push people to meet all of their goals. You’ll find that Kelly is one of those especially talented trainers.

What I liked best about working with Kelly Johnson fitness is the way she looks at the whole person. She worked with me on confidence building, diet, and exercise. I feel a lot better knowing that my trainer has helped me keep fit as well as helped me take care of myself for the long term. I never enjoy work outs but she makes them fun. This is a great company to work with.

I am a 49 year old woman and have been working with Kelly Johnson for about a month — I have tried other trainers and have not gotten the results I have seen in the short time I have worked with Kelly. She did a thorough consultation with me in the beginning and really listened to what I desired to change. Kelly is also very easy to work with, yet pushes you to do more each session. I am continuing as Kelly’s client because of the results I have gotten and also because she explains what I need to do and why I need to do it to achieve those results! Kelly Rocks!!!

Kelly is organized with a plan that works for you and fun at the same time. I really enjoy working with her. I totally saw a difference!

Kelly is simply great. I was nervous to start with a new personal trainer, it can be stressful trying to find someone who I feel comfortable working out with. Kelly was an instant fit for me. It feels like I am going to hang out with a friend who likes to kick my @ss versus going to work out with a slave driver.
She knows everything about the human body, and is constantly educating me about my own body and gives me actionable tips to be even healthier. Her sessions are not only a great workout, they are fun. It feels like I am a kid again — playing sports, warming up, and getting great exercise in the process.
Her advise is real and fits for everyday people. My last trainer told me that I needed to drink watermelon juice in the mornings, eat pumpkin seeds in the afternoon, and additional nonsense that no one can actually keep up. Kelly, on the other hand, is a real woman, her advise on nutrition, lifestyle, food shopping, dining out, etc. is realistic and doesn’t impose on my actual life. She even saved me money on my monthly grocery list!
If you are looking for a trainer who is reliable, always on time, willing to travel to you, someone who will make you feel empowered and will help you shed fat and build muscle (if thats your goal), she is the one for you!
Needless to say, Kelly is a great trainer because she listens to your goals. And will stop at nothing until you reach them.

I have been training with Kelly for about 6 months, and I have seen amazing results! I am 45 years old and have worked out most of my life. Typically I run into three main challenges.
FIrst, I get bored, second the workout is too hard and I don’t want to come back, and third, I get injured. For me, Kelly has been the perfect solution. She keeps it all interesting, challenges me, but never pushes so hard that I get hurt or don’t want to keep going. At this point in my life I have some nagging injuries, aches and pains that need to be factored in to my exercise and Kelly always keeps this in mind.
But the best news is… I just went to Maui and I felt great in my white bikini!
I would highly recommend her as a trainer!
Best,
