I started my weight loss journey in January. It included Weight Watchers and walking. I decided that I wanted to expand my exercise program so I joined NRG 4 Life Fitness in early March. I have been taking a variety of different classes and have been attending multiple classes almost everyday since.
I remember when I first started and realized that I need to put in a lot of hard work in to get stronger but it didn’t take long before I started to notice the improvement in the my cardio and strength and balance as well….stronger from the inside out
I really enjoy the variety of classes offered. I want to thank ALL of the amazing staff and instructors at NRG for their knowledge and support and for being so positive. I believe it is because of this encouragement from the instructors that make people want to work hard and obtain their personal goals. Each class, I feel like they’re bringing out my best!

Although I have met my weight loss goal, I know I still have a lot of work to do to tone my body and to reach my fitness goal.
Fitness is a lifestyle change and something that I need to work hard at to obtain and I am looking forward to continuing to work hard at NRG.

I began my weight loss journey in November when I retired from a pretty sedentary management position of 38 yrs. I walked in to NRG 4 Life and felt immediately comfortable as the staff were friendly and helpful plus I saw a variety of people and ages. Since then, I have released almost 30 lbs. More important than the weight, however is the extra energy I have and how much easier it is for me to carry on daily chores in the garden and around the house. Fifteen years ago, I had a knee replacement from playing sports in my youth. I knew I needed to strengthen the muscles around my knees and to get some weight off to extend the life of my knees.
In the past, I’d only ever lifted weights for fitness, however, it was suggested by Terry, as soon as I joined, that I do cardio activity too to strengthen my heart and lungs and to kick the fat burning into gear. I started off at 2 MPH on the treadmill and now I’m up to 4 and I also “play with the levels” as Sarah suggested, doing intervals of increased speed and incline which ensures I don’t plateau. I still enjoy lifting weights and I know this along with less eating out is the combined approach to help trim the inches. I enjoy spending time at NRG as I know I’m doing something good for myself unlike others my age who turn into coach potatoes and get older before their time. I’ve never been afraid to challenge myself and now that I’m fitter I can ride my bike for up to 40 km’s at a time!

“NRG 4 Life is a great place! I Love the classes and the instructors. A common thread I hear at NRG is: Health, Happiness + getting fit starts in the mind…..it’s up to us basically. I’m so fortunate to be able to participate, have fun and feel so much better.”

I joined NRG4Life in February of 2014; I feel the positive energy from trying my best every time I go to the gym. The staff are truly great and always accommodating so I can work at my level and often motivate me to push a little harder! As a working Mom of 2 busy teenagers, I balance working out at the gym with many other activities. I try to be a positive role model to my children and show them small changes can truly make a difference. NRG4Life has been vital in doing this by encouraging me to attend 3 or 4 times each week. The results have paid off; I sleep better, choose healthy food options and have lost 15 pounds. I am grateful for the friendly staff that greets me and enjoy the variety of excellent classes. Thank you NRG4Life!

I absolutely LOVED the first Bootcamp session. I’m so excited for tomorrow. I left feeling so grateful and energetic for the day!! Thank YOU! 🙂 I have attended the Zumba classes…I went last week and I added on Gold membership on to Bootcamp for this month, so I’m going tonight too and looking forward to it. I had never done Zumba before either…so much fun! Thank you for the Bootcamp Bulletin as well as detailed confirmation info.

Just over a year ago, I was told by my doctor I was pre-diabetic and needed to lose weight. My inactive lifestyle including business lunches out had caught up to me. My wife signed me up at NRG 4 Life actually! I felt comfortable right away and started losing weight. I have maintained this now for almost a year. I’m always greeted with encouragement and a smile. It’s a gym with a lot more than great equipment!

I’ve been a member of a couple of facilities over the years, and let me tell you, you guys do stand out in my opinion. This may seem like small trivial thing, but when I see you and/or Terry, you always say hello by using my name! What a personal touch… I feel welcomed every time that happens. Also, soooo happy that there are a variety of classes that I can attend… I am very much enjoying the facility, classes and people (staff and members!). One of the best decisions I made lately… wished I joined sooner! 🙂

I walked into [Bootcamp] the first time and I was met by the Bootcamp Instructor Jenn who just makes you feel as if she is your fitness friend straight away. She is bright, smart, motivating, organized, sets some incredible work stations up and she explains things really well. She is warm, encouraging and I really can’t say enough about her, so I am signing up for the next month’s class. Why? Well, for all those reasons but also because her workouts make me forget being an over-heavy recently C-sectioned mum for 2 days a week. She offers alternatives for some of the less forgiving exercises but I choose to work hard and so I try not to go for that weaker option. I am there to push myself and for the lessons on Mondays and Wednesdays that is exactly what I do. I lose myself in exercise for those 2 sessions every week… You see, my workouts (with the lovely people in the group and Jenn) are my piece of weekly gold. My award for trying to be a good employee at work and push my targets, but also my reward for trying to be a better mum everyday. The impact that exercise has had on me in the past is evident in how you feel afterwards, but these classes target those hard to reach areas! The ones that running alone cannot change… There is no excuse now for me not getting rid of the excess. Inside me WAS a gymnast and ballerina, once upon a time, many years ago. She is still in there, just a little more of me than in those days… The stretches we do with Jenn are a reminder of the flexibility and body I once took for granted. Suffice to say, I am in a good place, with good people and I love the classes and the energy you feel when you walk into the gym. I love Sue on reception, we have a little chat she tells me how lovely it is to see me and I feel the same. She is a joy. I wanted to thank you for being around the corner from where I live, for the smile we get when we see you running on Sundays. For hiring real people who have real, genuine personalities and who are kind and make time for you… I wish you every success and a heartfelt thank you. NRG for life is right… in so many ways…

I lost a significant amount of weight 10 years ago and have kept it off. I love the energy I have from working out regularly – doing weights and cardio along with eating healthy. When it comes to being healthy and fit, you truly have to want it – to want to change. It means adjusting your lifestyle. Even if you don’t have full support from family, you need to keep working out and making healthy eating choices for you.

People will start asking how you’re trimming down and that’s encouraging. Changes shouldn’t be drastic, especially if you want them to stick. They see my results and they might be more encouraged to try to be healthy too! It’s about fitting it in around the family’s schedule. Use Windows of time. Adapt if you have to. I’ve learned to prioritize myself and know this is ok and what has to be done to be healthy.

It’s about tweaking the little things – eating more healthy carbs for example (greens) and less white unrefined carbs. Eating protein at every meal is important as well is very important. When it comes maintaining your workouts, remember you will have days that you aren’t as motivated to go to the gym, and that’s where NRG 4 Life comes in. There’s always a friendly face and fun challenges in place for us members to make it easier to keep going! I always leave feeling glad that I made the effort and have more energy. I love this feeling.

Thanks Sarah, Terry and your staff. What you have created at NRG really works. Joining your fitness centre has been one of the best choices I have made in life. I appreciate you all so much and I have made many friends as well. I look forward very much to the ongoing positive experience!

I finished my first 5k race with a new personal best. It was great! What a fantastic feeling! I’m a busy Mom and to all those others out there, thinking of getting started towards being fitter, I say “go for it – you can do it!” Thanks Sarah for all of your guidance and wise words during classes. I enjoy all the classes I attend along with the Small Group Training and Nutrition Coaching services. I am so happy to have found NRG 4 Life! The classes combined with Nutrition Coaching are really working well, helping me to stay on track and assisting with my goals.

In January of this year I joined NRG 4 Life fitness and vowed to myself that I was going to be fitter now at 50 than I was at 30. With the motivation provided by Taya’s spin, row and core classes along with Sarah’s circuit classes I’ve managed to lose nearly 20lbs and three belt sizes. My overall health is much better and I have considerably more energy than I’ve had in the past 20 years! The vibe at NRG 4 Life fitness is fantastic! EVERYONE is very friendly and that makes it much easier to WANT to go to the gym! I still have a little way to go to have the physique that I picture, but I’m sure that with the help of the staff at NRG 4 Life that I’ll get there.

Since joining NRG 4 Life, I’ve lost 25 lbs in 5 months, however, it’s really been the last 2 months, that I’ve “buckled down”. I’ve gotten into a consistent routine with my exercise, coming right after work approximately 4 times per week. With my shift work, that was never easy, however, now that I’m getting results and enjoy my time at NRG 4 Life, I can see this being something I can do – a lifestyle change as they say.

My energy level has gone way up and I feel more positive in general. I found the nutritional coaching from Kim was really, really helpful as well and now I grocery shop and eat so much more mindfully. The combination of exercise and proper eating works. You can’t have one without the other!

Using my pension checks for Personal Training is my investment to my health. My bone density has improved and my core is so much stronger. I started because I wanted to fit into my mother of the bride dress a few years ago, but now I continue as the benefits go way beyond how I look in my clothes! My trainers are able to make sure that every session is geared exactly to my changing needs.

I love the yoga and spin classes at NRG 4 Life as well! The instructors are the best, however there’s no way I would stay as motivated or consistent without my one on one sessions too!
Penny M.

I have loved belonging to NRG, had tons of fun, made many gym pals and have bettered my health. Thank you Sarah and Terry along with your great staff for a wonderful 5 years (time has flown). Not only have I enjoyed the exercise, I knew whenever I stepped in the door that I would be greeted warmly. Your atmosphere is unlike any other “gym”. I will miss everyone, but am looking forward to this next facet of our lives outside of the area.

I returned to NRG 4 Life in 2014 after recovering from a serious illness. I was out of shape and at my all time heaviest weight. My goal was to lose 30 pounds safely and to get my energy back. By June 2015, with a lot of hard work and support from family, friends and the NRG4Life team, I am proud to say that I reached that goal. I am now reaching the one year mark of maintaining my goal weight and keeping myself active. I attend a variety of bootcamp, evening and weekend classes 4-5 times per week – sometimes alone and sometimes with a workout buddy. I have learned that this is what I need to do in order to maintain my current weight, and to feel both fit and energized. I am thankful to Sarah, Terry and the NRG4 life instructors for keeping me on track, and helping me to reach my fitness and nutrition goals. There is an incredible amount of support here and I am so glad to be part of the NRG 4 Life family.

I love the way I feel when I workout regularly. At NRG 4 Life there’s so many great class options which keeps me motivated without getting bored! After a long day, the hardest part is just walking in the door. I remind myself as I drive over after work how great I will feel after. Unlike other gyms, I am always greeted by friendly staff who make everyone feel welcome and truly care. It’s like a community of all different people coming together to be healthier without any judgment. Some members just workout, however, I enjoy the camaraderie of the classes! I attend Pilates, Circuits, Yoga, Step and Spin – there’s something literally for everyone and for all levels! It’s when I added Nutrition Coaching with Kim that I really saw a big difference in my shape and now I’m on the free maintenance plan. I trimmed down 8 lbs in 8 weeks, more importantly, it gave me the tools and new tips I need to be accountable to continue eating healthy.
Patti H.

I have lost 70 lbs in 7 months and 11″ more in 30 days through NRG 4 Life Bootcamp. Initially I was worried about going to the gym. I didn’t want people staring or making fun of me. I find all the members and staff supportive and friendly with lots of people just like me! My evening instructor Jennifer, is an inspiration herself. She has lost over 100 lbs! Sarah & Terry, thank you for not only providing a gym and classes to make you physically fit, but also for the nutritional classes, healthy eating choices, support and positive motivation. NRG 4 Life has supported me every step of the way and Bootcamp has definitely simplified my healthy weight loss goals. I have never been so happy and healthy in a long, long time 🙂
Tara R.

My husband commented that I was pulling too hard while kayaking on vacation! Obviously my workouts at the gym are paying off especially the Rockin’ Row Circuit and Equipment Circuit! When I joined NRG 4 Life my main goal was to increase my energy, stamina and strength and I can definitely say I have done that. The friends and fun I’m having are a nice bonus I didn’t expect!
Anne B.

I’m fairly new to the gym scene. It’s something I didn’t think I needed until I heard from my daughter who is also an NRG 4 Life member that I should give it a try! I am now hooked!! I do the stationary bike, treadmill and even a few strength training machines. I’m no ‘Spring Chicken’, however, I always feel welcome and there’s members of all ages from teens up. I had no idea that a ‘gym’ could be like this.

Since joining NRG 4 Life I can take upon daily tasks easier and when I travel I have more energy being able to walk for longer periods of time without getting winded. Keeping my weight at a healthy range makes me feel good and improves the quality of my life in so many ways. I’ve made a lot of friends at NRG 4 Life and am so happy I joined!
Margaret S.

Bootcamp has increased my energy level substantially. The class atmosphere is fantastic! I found that everyone in the class was very friendly and I attribute that to the simple fact that we are all there for similar goals. I can’t say enough about the amazing trainer’s attitude either. The choice motivational words really help me to keep pushing myself. I’m always greeted with a big smile when we start and it’s still there when we finish! I have a long way to go in my fitness goals and I feel that this has given me the right stepping stones to get me in that path. Thanks so much NRG 4 Life!
