TESTIMONIALS
“I have known Walter Crockett for four years now. He has personally trained myself, my sister and my mom. His professionalism and ability to help me succeed in my fitness goals is top notch. He is always encouraging and focusing on techniques to make sure we get the best quality workout. Because I was so pleased with his training, he now trains my varsity volleyball team. The amount of growth my student athletes have shown while working with Walter is unbelievable.
It is so important to show young female athletes the importance of exercise. Walter is so patient and detail orientated with making sure the girls understand and demonstrate the exercise perfectly. My team looks forward every year to have the chance to work with Walter. I cannot thank Walter enough for what he has done for my family and my team. Again, he is one of the best in the business.”

“My husband suffered respiratory failure at age 30 from smoke inhalation while working as a firefighter. His lungs, body and overall fitness took a huge hit. In order to safely rehab him back into shape, he started training with Walter. Within a matter of just a few months, his strength and exercise tolerance had become nearly as good as it was prior to his illness.
Bored with my usual workout routine, and impressed with Walt’s consistently positive and motivated attitude throughout my husband’s training sessions (not to mention awesome results!), I began working out with him as well. Prior to starting with him, I was trying to cram 5 days of running into my already packed schedule as a physician and mother of two young boys. As with my husband, within weeks I could already see – and feel – a difference. Working out only ONCE a week with Walt, and occasionally a second day on my own, I dropped 15 lbs., gained strength, and even improved my running pace.
Throughout the process, Walt has been unfailingly positive and full of endless motivation. His experience and versatility of training technique speak for itself. We even had our 6-year-old taking boxing lessons from him. My family and I have recently relocated to Colorado and one of the most noticeable absences is our weekly infusion of health and wellness from Walter. He is most decidedly missed and we consider ourselves extremely fortunate to have had the time with him that we did.”

“I just wanted to take a few moments to thank you for all the assistance that you have provided me over the past few years. You have been instrumental in my recovery from shoulder surgery in December. I had really been struggling in both the restoration of the range of motion and the return of my shoulder strength. Through your assistance, my range of motion has returned and the strength in my shoulder is showing tremendous improvement since we started one-on-one training sessions several months ago.
Your ability to inspire, and talent in developing custom workouts for me, has been absolutely critical to my recovery. Also, I have been taking your Pound 4 Pound class for more sessions than I can recall. This class is such a unique workout that evolves as the sessions pass, that I enjoy taking this class repeatedly. Returning to the Pound 4 Pound class was a milestone in my recovery from severe rotator cuff tear repair.
Also, I feel that this class has not only given me a new avenue for working out but also has been a source of increasing confidence for me. My son, Jack, now takes Youth Fight Fit for kids — a class designed to fight childhood obesity through exercise.”

“Hello! I am Jimmy. I am a 64-year-old, former intercollegiate track sprinter from the Atlantic Coast Conference and a current masters sprinter. I committed to trusting and following Coach Kirk’s guidance after relying on myself for training for so long. I set goals of losing weight, increasing muscle tone, and, less clearly, training for sprint competition during this summer.
During the first six months of training with kirk, I achieved the first 2 goals. A persistent, nagging injury prevented me for achieving the third goal. What is notable, however, are the unexpected and significant gains I have achieved in body flexibility, which has significantly improved my quality of life. these unexpected gains are setting me up for my long-term goals of wellness and sports-for-life.
In specifics, before training with Kirk, I could only extend my arms to level only slightly above my shoulders. I could not reach the top shelf for putting away dishes, I also could not reach the ceiling fan chain to turn the fan on or off without great difficulty. Kirk has been able to make all of the tasks easier through his guidance.”
