Trainers near New Haven

“I have been working with Active Wellness now for over 4 years, and I highly recommend working with them. We started with workouts in person in their New Haven studio, but then the Pandemic started and I moved to a different state. Since then, Christina and Drew have been more than accommodating in working with me remotely, which we have done for 3 years.Over the course of that journey, I've had very different goals at different phases in my life. The first phase was before and during the Pandemic, when I managed to lose 45 pounds and reach my lowest weight since college, while reaching my peak fitness in that same period.Christina and Drew were incredible in building a foundation of fitness with a regimented program that built incrementally, starting from my core strength and building all the stabilization muscles to enable all planes of movement without risking injury. I had prior experience with workout plans from high school sports, and I don't think I could have found a program that worked so well without Christina and Drew's help. Workouts were incredibly varied, so it felt new and refreshing, and I felt new muscles get fatigued like my obliques and gluteus medius.It was also great to have individual and group coaching sessions during the Pandemic that helped contextualize the research behind diet, nutrition, muscle building, and fitness with the backdrop of mental wellness and finding motivation to reach our individual goals. These really helped me focus on maintaining my diet to keep my weight loss journey going, since diet is just as important as exercise, if not more so.After the pandemic, I went through a life transition, which meant attending far more social functions and finding far less time to workout. Christina and Drew were nonjudgmental and completely accepting that my life priorities were different now, so our training and coaching would reflect maintaining a base level of health and fitness as opposed to the level of dedication I had during the Pandemic. My core is still as strong as ever, but I have definitely regained a few pounds.Christina and Drew are truly kind, supportive, and helpful in trying to fill whatever blindspots you're struggling with in your health journey. For example, when I had questions on difficult subjects like resting metabolic rates of calorie burning between a pound of muscle vs a pound of fat, they did their homework on their own time to get me an answer. It really shows they are personally invested in your health and success, no matter what your individual goals may be. I unequivocally recommend working with Active Wellness to anyone who is able.“

I have been working with John regularly but have also had the opportunity of meeting another trainer Matt. Both John and Matt are incredibly professional, dedicated and hardworking. From my first day at R3 to this very day they listen to my goals, concerns and help me achieve my goals in weight loss and getting stronger. They answer any questions I have and they truly want me to do better. I look forward to going to my sessions there. My only regret is not joining sooner!If you’re contemplating on joining or lacking motivation R3 has truly revamped my mentality on fitness and staying active and motivated for the better!“

“MSA is amazing! I've been doing Dawn's Zoom workouts since April and I could not love them more! Dawn is incredible, and she does a great job motivating, supporting, accommodating, and of course training. I love the variety of workouts and that there is no pressure to, as Dawn always says, "be a hero". I can see and feel the progress from these classes. If you're looking for a personal trainer or for classes, MSA should be your choice!“

“Performance in Hamden is the best place a person can go for physical therapy. The patient care is astounding; I have been to many PT places and none of them even come close to comparing. The staff is amazing, from the receptionists to the aids to the therapists themselves. They have made such an impact in my recovery to the point where my surgeon was surprised. They are extremely knowledgable and intentional with their exercises. They know when to push and when to slow you down. Unlike many of the PT places I have been to in the past, Performance never made me feel stranded or unattended. They listened to my needs and goals and created a plan to get me there. Additionally, they were attentive to pain, making sure I was in as minimal as possible and was never pushing myself to hard. Renee and Matt have been the best physical therapists. They really have made an extremely significant difference in my recovery. The establishment itself is very clean, and there is always parking. If you are looking for a PT place, just go here, you will be happy that you did.“

“Started going to Steve for rehab on my shoulder. I haven't been able to lift my arm straight up for a couple of months now. After my first session with him 2 weeks ago I was able to do it (still had pain but I could lift my arm straight up). After my 2nd session this morning I was able to do it without any pain! I've still got more work to do before I'm fully recovered and I just wish I had gone to Steve sooner. Very knowledgeable and really helps you to understand what might have caused the pain and how the rehab will help it.“
