I started personal training with Caroline in 2014 and am the strongest I’ve ever been. A ski accident in 2011 had left me with a bad knee, weakness on one side and range of motion limitations that greatly affected my quality of life. Despite 2 years of physio and then personal training at another gym, stairs still often gave me knee pain and I was considering moving to a rancher. In this prime time in life, between kids and grandkids, I was dismayed that the activities I now had time for – Skiing, cycling, gardening and long walks with my dog, were becoming out of reach. Working with Caroline, and the other trainers at Poco Crossfit, has been a game changer. Building strength and fitness didn’t happen overnight, but I could see improvements every month or two. At the start of this process, I had set a lifetime goal of achieving lifts to the “intermediate” level as set out in the Basic Strength Standards chart. It seemed like a lofty goal at the time, given that I couldn’t even get into a squat position without pain and did not come from a gym background. As 2018 is drawing to a close, I find I have to revise that goal as I’ve already met or exceeded that level in all my lifts. I give full credit to Caroline and her team. I’ve benefited greatly from their attention to detail, emphasis on form, deep knowledge of body mechanics and keen interest in keeping abreast of what is new on the human performance landscape. No matter how I feel when I get to the gym, I find I always feel better after my session. So thank you Caroline and your entire team, for 4 injury free years. Each time I step into my skis or onto my bike, I’m grateful.

My First month of training has almost finished, I am so grateful to Michelle for her encouragement and expertise. I am still a newbie but feel so happy with the training and I can feel that I am getting slowly stronger and more flexible. Thank you. I love my workouts 🙂

I have never been a “gym” person and find the whole thing overwhelming so I was nervous to meet with Morgan and quite unsure if he would be able to help me. Within minutes, I knew that I was in the presence of a master. Well-educated as to how a body functions, non-judgmental of my current pathetic physical state, sensitive to my overall anxieties and limitations and confident that I could become the strong grandma I desperately needed to be. I signed on for 3 personal training sessions per week for 3 months and began what would be one of the most challenging and rewarding journeys of my life.

I’ve been training with Janina for 2 years and she is an outstanding master of her craft; incredibly bright with a treasure trove of health and fitness knowledge; expert in weight training, crossfit and mobility; and a warm, spontaneous personality that make workouts fun. Janina is brimming with the brains to help anyone achieve the brawn. She’s the real deal in an industry full of wannabees and is the standard by which any trainer should be measured. If you want to truly achieve your fitness goals & dreams look no further, she’s the coach you’ve been looking for!
I can’t thank you enough Janina.
