Precision Body Designs | Testimonials

	"I've been training with Judi since July 2008. At 47 years of age, I workout to feel and look good. My goals are to be healthy inside and out. My focus is to keep the weight off, keep my body fat low and continue working out and getting stronger. Judi has dedicated herself to helping me achieve my goals safely while making it fun and mixing up our workouts. I've lost weight and lowered my body fat percentage. I have lowered my cholesterol and triglycerides and improved the overall muscle tone of my body. I have recommended Judi to people and will continue to do so." Debbie Kenyon

	"Wanting to maximize my ability to remain active during my retirement years and to minimize the risks of falling as I aged, I undertook a fitness training program at the age of sixty-seven. With no previous experience and recognizing the need for some sort of structure to be able to accomplish these goals, I joined Anytime Fitness and signed up with Precision Body Designs for the help of a trainer. The most important qualities of the trainer I fortunately found - besides being non-judgmental and having a sense of humor - were a concern for safety, an understanding of the fundamentals of strength training, and the ability to make exercise fun. Based on my own experience with my trainer Seth Paul and from what I have observed of the other trainers, I highly recommend the trainers of Precision Body Designs." George M. Riser, M.D.

	"The results I am getting from my workouts are better now than they've ever been! At 32 years of age, I am losing weight, building lean muscle, dropping body fat and eating better. I train with Shane Venezia at Anytime Fitness in Covington and its always a challenge! There's always something new to push me and it never gets boring. I tell everyone I know about training with Precision Body Designs. Shane is awesome!" Jonna Turner

	"I am a 44 year old grandmother. My goal is to lose the 20-25 lbs. I've gained over the past few years. I've been working out with Yvette Combel for awhile now. When we train I feel like Yvette's training is right on target. I get a full body workout and she pushes me to my limits and motivates me to give it all I have. It's been great and I've enjoyed training with Yvette very much." Laurie Corkern

	"Working with a Personal Trainer is more rewarding than doing it yourself. My trainer Shane is very professional, he gives me the information and motivation I need to see results. I am 35 years old and am trying to establish a healthy lifestyle. It has been hard, but my trainer makes it fun. He is very personable and gives me the support I need to keep moving forward." Melissa LeBlanc

	"From a size 10 to a size 4, that's what happened when I trained with PBD. I've trained with other trainers in past years, going through the motions, but did not achieve my goal until working with a PBD trainer. The motivation, of course, is great, but the meal plan they created specifically for me along with the cardio and toning put me where I wanted to be. Whether it's Jared, Shelly, Shane or Seth, all the PBD trainers are great! If you follow their plan, you're sure to see the results you want. Weight loss is NOT my New Year's resolution this year! Now all I have to do is maintain what I have thanks for PBD." Monique Casey

	"I started training with PBD as a high school freshman. I wanted to increase my muscle mass, my strength and my overall level of fitness. My trainer Jared and I became very close and I had no problem sharing with him my insecurities and goals. The program he developed was perfect. He gave me a meal plan to help me earn the body I desired and taught me how to lift and train properly to get the best results. Training with PBD has definitely helped increase my self-confidence and has also given me some great new friends like Jared. I would recommend Jared or any other member of Precision Body Designs to someone looking for a personal trainer because they are all very personable and extremely knowledgeable in their field. These trainers will get you the results you want." Nick Roger - Student at LSU

So if you want a challenge and to have a lot of fun while working out then Shane is the man! Thanks to Precision for a life changing experience." Stephanie Langhauser

	"I had been doing Weight Watchers for several years and had great success losing and maintaining my weight. During the 2008 holidays, I went a little wild for a period of time and ended up gaining about 5 lbs. I have a petite frame and am only 5 feet tall, so having to lose weight when I was already at a low weight was very challenging for me. All through 2009, I tried to get that 5 lbs off and was unsuccessful. For the last 2 1/2 years, I worked out at Star Fitness 3 days a week with Donna Wrobel, who is the most awesome fitness instructor I've ever experienced, doing spin 2x, Body Pump 2x and boot camp 1x a week. I also ran 3–4 miles one day each weekend. Even though I was used to exercising, I started feeling badly... always tired and sluggish and having difficulty getting through workouts. I figured it had to be my food intake that was causing this. At the end of October 2009 I contacted Jared Meacham and explained my situation to him. I told him my goals were to feel better, to lose the 5 lbs. and to have an eating plan that would keep me within my Weight Watchers points for each day. So Jared met with me and we discussed my history and then he came up with a meal plan that he felt would help me achieve my goals. Jared is great to work with!! He is extremely knowledgeable about nutrition and how different foods affect the body. He is easy to talk to, very accessible when I had questions and he helps me understand why we were doing things the way we were doing them. I started the plan on November 2nd. After being on the plan for only 3 weeks, I lost 6 lbs. and was feeling great!! I also noticed a major difference in muscle definition. I was sold and Jared was my new best friend!! Now, I have dropped one of my exercise days and am still able to maintain my weight with Jared’s plan. I have so much confidence in Jared’s plan that I don’t even count Weight Watchers points anymore. I find I have more freedom with Jared’s plan to make good choices at home or when dining out. It has been great! Thanks Jared for everything!" Cindy Leaber

	"I'm a person who has loved sports my entire life. I even received a four year scholarship to play basketball at LSU. I loved racquetball and became a national champion in Women's Open Single. I was sponsored by E- Force, a company that sold racquets, footwear, clothing etc. During those years, I had several surgeries on both my knees due to injuries. I continued playing using knee braces, and still went on to win the 45+ Women's Singles at Nationals. Eventually, I had to stop playing because my knees were so bad. I had a very hard time standing, walking and doing anything active. After 7 years, I began to gain weight and my health was suffering. In ‘07, I had both knees replaced. My trainer at the time was scared to work on my legs and so was I. After many months of training, I decided to stop and try and do cardio on my own, but when my doctor put me on Lipitor for high cholesterol due to my poor eating habits I had to do something. I heard about Precision Body Designs and decided to contact them. I spoke with Jared Meacham. He is the founder of PBD. He invited me in for a free workout to see what he could do for me. He did not want me to sign-up until he was certain he could help me. That impressed me! I wanted to see what he could do for me too, since I had previously worked with 3 trainers with few results. The first visit sold me! Jared gave me a great session and I knew he WAS the CHOSEN one for me. He knew so much more than the other trainers, and I was totally pleased. Wow!!! What a great move that decision has been. I'm 56 years young and I feel like I'm 26 again. I can do things I haven't done in over 15 yrs. Most importantly, I'm off Lipitor and blood pressure medications. My doctor was so impressed and I've been off now for over 6 months. THIS is what a success story is about. Here I am, living proof! You bet I want to praise PBD for what these trainers do. I've watched many different PBD trainers and I see how they work with their clients and I'm amazed at how great they are. I even bought my daughter some sessions with trainer Judi Cuff and she loved it! Do yourself, your spouse, your kids and grandkids a favor, get healthy and enjoy your life to the fullest. So as Jared would say "let's rock" and I say - "let the good times roll." Karen Kattengell

	"Historically I dreaded exercise and avoided it as best I could but our trainer Shane has made it fun and challenging. I'm actually looking forward to workouts now. Shane keeps the exercises and intensity varied to avoid burnout and seems to know how hard we can be pushed without injuring ourselves. That makes each session difficult but not so much that we're overdoing it. He even came up with a special workout for my 30th birthday involving 30 reps of various exercises! The diet plan that came with the training has helped considerably. The foods are healthy and taste good quite unlike what some people imagine healthy food to be. I would highly recommend Shane and PBD if you are looking for personal training." John Duncan

	"For the past 4 years I've been on a "diet" trying to reach my goal weight, with little to no results. I had all but given up when I was talked into training with Jared at PBD. 3 months and 80 lbs. later I am a completely different person! I can run 3 miles without stopping, I do pull-ups, because of his support and reinforcement I'm the best I've ever been. My life has never been better!" Steve Gottfried

	"Just wanted to say THANK YOU for doing what you do to help others attain their nutritional goals!!!! No matter how I tried to lose those last 5-10 lbs, no matter how much I worked out, I could never get to my goal weight. The meal plan you designed for me was very easy to follow. I appreciated you including the types of foods that I like to eat. The food items were easy to find and prepare. It has now been almost 7 weeks on the plan and I have lost the weight and even more than I expected. I feel better knowing I am feeding my body healthy and nutritious foods. Thanks again!!" Stephanie Guillot

	"A little about me - I am a Mom, wife, employee, and a runner who loves to have a great time. Born in raised in New Orleans, having a great time comes easy. But with that are many challenges, namely, how to get and stay fit at 47 years old. I knew it was going to be a life altering commitment but I was ready to take it. I began running again after a 6 year break but was not getting the results that I needed. Years ago, all I had to do was run and the pounds/inches would drop. Well not anymore! This is where Jared Molaison comes in. Jared came highly recommended by a friend who is totally fit. I figured if she liked him, he must be pretty darn good at what he does. I contacted Jared and we discussed my goals and decided to move forward in my training. We work hard approximately twice a week. And after a few short months, I see results and so do others. Jared is always available. He is a motivator and encourages me to keep coming back. The reason I will continue to train with Jared is put very simply – RESULTS!" Monica Caldarera

	"PBD has changed my life. I moved away after doing group training for only 4 months. The nutrition plan, fitness plan and education I received during that time has helped me achieve and maintain the body I wanted my entire adult life. Being 43 years old, and having struggled with weight my entire life, I can now say that my 44th birthday will find me looking, feeling and being better than I have been in my lifetime. For the first time I love what I look like and who I have become. I can say for certain that if you do what your trainer asks you to do, and you stick with it, you will be get the results you want. Thank you Precision Body Designs!" Kim Philipson, BSN, RN.

	"When I was asked if I wanted to work out, I said "sure, I've belonged to many gyms". Well let me say that working out with Donna Wrobel does not compare to anything I have ever experienced. I have learned moves that I never knew my body was capable of doing, exercises I would never try at home. Donna is very professional yet she makes the workout doable and fun. Just when I think I can't go any further she squeezes another ten reps out of me. I say wow where did that come from. My body did not know I had it in me, but apparently Donna did. I have been working out with Donna for months and I can see and feel the progress. I would describe Donna's program as challenging and they leave you feeling like you've accomplished something good for yourself. What a boost for your self esteem, you should try it!" Donnell Langley

	"This is my first experience working with a personal trainer. I wasn't sure how I'd feel at first, but after only a few weeks I am loving it! I'm looking forward to meeting with my trainer Shane Venezia because I am beginning to feel my muscles toning up and I've never had that before. My clothes are fitting better too and Shane keeps me accountable to the program and makes sure I stay motivated to keep working toward my goals. He is an amazing motivator and I could not do this without him." Chantelle Gerard

	"This is my first experience working out with a Personal Trainer. Previously I had been walking and riding my bike for exercise. I'm in my fifties and need strength training and help losing weight. I am also concerned with the health of my heart. Yvette is my trainer and she has always been professional in staying in contact with me and creating a safe environment for me to train in. She has taught me how to exercise properly, has taught me what muscle groups I am working with each exercise and explains what to expect from my body as a result of my exercise. I enjoy training with Yvette very much and her personality is always pleasant and encouraging. I recommend Yvette to anyone interested in working with a Personal Trainer." Linda Latour

	"I never knew what a real workout was until I worked with Donna. She pushes me harder than I've ever been pushed before, and certainly harder than I could ever push myself. She is high energy and makes each workout fun. By the time we're done I always feel skinnier than I did when I walked thru the door." Rayne McCance

	"Precision Body Designs has helped save my life! At 68 years of age, after 2 heart attacks and a back surgery, I am able to run and lift weights. I feel better than I have in 20 years and I like the way I am looking for the first time since I was married in 1974. I can see muscles in the mirror!" Steven Charles, Ph.D.

	"As a business owner I can tell you that time is something I do not have a lot of. My workouts are 30 minutes long and I train with my trainer 3 times a week at 4:30am. I follow my meal plan and fitness plan throughout the week and my trainer keeps me motivated. Precision gave me all the tools I needed. They took away my excuses. I know what exercises to do each day and I know what to eat. The rest is up to me. I've lost 26 lbs. in 9 weeks. The first day I was told, "if you don't get results, you're not following the program because PBD's program is fool proof". That turned out to be true. I am following it and I am getting results. Their approach is simple and when you do what they tell you to do, you get results fast. 5 stars!" Phillip Borne, MBA

	"Meeting Donna, my Precision Body Designs trainer, was one of the best things that ever happened to me, other than meeting my husband. I would never work as hard by myself as I do with Donna. She is so motivating and she makes it easy for me to stick to my routine." Toni Paterson

	"Don't wait to figure this out on your own. I've belonged to almost every gym on the north shore and its depressing to think of all the years and money I spent spinning my wheels trying to get fit. I made one phone call and that changed everything! Precision Body Designs is the real thing, they give you what every other gym and trainer claims to give you. PBD gets results and they make it a whole lot of fun. I've trained with a group and on my own and every sessions brings me closer to my goals. Thank you!" Thomas Galvez
