Testimonials

In truth, for years I mostly thought of my body as that thing that moves my brain around and helps me put nutrition into my food hole. I was self-aware enough to realize it wasn’t a particularly accurate or healthy perspective. So I joined FE about six months ago to get to know my body again: how it works, what it needs, and how to live with it.

I’ve been dragging my feet with this testimonial because it would be so much more satisfying to say my body and attitude have been transformed. In truth, I’ve put on muscle steadily, my percent body fat has improved somewhat, I’m a bit more toned, have better range of motion, improved stamina, and flexibility. All good outcomes. It’s been a lot of work so far, with a lot more to do in order to reach my goals.

The good news is Sarah and Tyler have built a great facility meant for the kind of work I need to do. They’ve given me guidance, direction, and a plan to follow. Trainers Andrew and Dave have motivated me, been generous with their time, and genuinely caring (but not so caring I feel uneasy).

The FE community is welcoming. Though, I don’t like people and try to avoid direct eye contact. But that’s fine. It’s the kind of place that most anyone can feel comfortable to come and make steady progress. I kind of love it.

Fitness:

The fitness assistance, direction, and training I receive from Functional Effects is always evolving, adapting, and working specifically towards my needs. I cannot ask anymore from the crew at FE. I rely on them for guidance, and training, whether for basic fitness or for intense training such as preparing for a Triathlon. The staff is friendly and attentive, and it’s a great environment to be in all the time. FE is for everybody. When I first started over 2 years ago, I was far from being fit, but I was never intimated by their programs. I cannot encourage people enough to join FE. You will get a lot of attention, and compassion from everyone.

Rehab:

I always rely on Dr. Reynolds to help me with health related questions from aches and pains, to nutrition. He takes a holistic approach to health and it’s great to work with someone who is incredibly knowledgeable about the body, health, and well-being. Even better his services are so well priced and I always feel I get more than what I pay for.

Mandy TantiYou will get a lot of attention, and compassion from everyone.

Two years ago, I decided that I desperately wanted to age better than most people I see. I wanted to be able to put on and tie my own shoes, to reach overhead, to stand up tall, etc. I had recovered from a frozen shoulder the previous year and that required a lot of physical therapy. My therapist, a very bright and caring woman told me I was not moving well in so many ways. She was willing to work with me, but the cost of that was prohibitive.

Months before I had seen Sarah at my gym. I was always very impressed with her, so when she told me she had her own gym and was married to a chiropractor who also worked at the gym, I was intrigued! I kept her card, but did not act on it for several months. Life happened and I stopped working out.

One day I was talking to one of my patients and decided to take my own advice and get active again. I could get back to my usual gym, but was not impressed with the trainers I saw there. So, I called Sarah and set up my appointment.

I will tell you it has not been an easy journey. I realized that despite being very active my body was not moving well. Patterns had been established over time that were now causing me discomfort and even pain. I could not get up off of the floor without using my arms. My squats were atrotious! My core was weak! More than once I was brought to tears as to how hard my brain had to work to understand how to move better! Without the encouragement of Tyler, Sarah, Andrew, Dave and the rest of the staff, not to mention the other awesome clients, I think I would have thrown in the towel a long time ago.

So it has been a little over two years, I have gained muscle, improved strength, toned quite a bit, lost some weight and best of all MOVE BETTER! I quite honestly do not SEE the changes, but am often told that I look younger than ever 🙂 I do FEEL the change!

It is very difficult to get bored at Functional Effects- my program changes just when I have mastered it, there are regular challenges and the place is just fun! I can interact with others, or zone in my own little world. FE helps me to take care of all of me, including managing stress, learning how to be more mindful, and give myself a break!

FE has made a difference in my life! Thank you FE!

Before finding us, what was your struggle? What were your biggest frustrations?

I was a chronic over trainer. So because of this I was injured often.

How did your struggle and frustrations affect your life? What did you feel like before you made your transformation?

Since I was getting hurt often I was missing work. It got to the point that I herniated my L4-L5 disk in my back and was down for 3 months. I gained 20 pounds in that time and was feeling lousy and thought I would never get back to where I was physically.

How did our program help you?

The programming I received from Functional Effect has been fantastic. I have strengthened my core to a point where I have little to no back pain. Not only am I pain free but I also can physically do things now I never thought possible. I have never been this functional movement wise ever in my life.

How is life different for you now?

Less pain, more functional, stronger, more confident, healthier and getting better every workout.
