Working out with Figarelle’s fitness has been a life changing experience. Over the years, I have worked out with many different trainers - from trainers at big gyms to other private trainers. Steph and and Lela are incomparable. Where other trainers may push too hard leaving excruciating soreness and barrier to wanting to work out or too little providing little results - Steph and Lela have the knowledge and expertise to push you just enough out of your comfort zone to leave you with that good workout soreness but not so much you aren’t excited to come back for more. They achieve results! Since working with them - I have lost more weight than I thought possible, but also gotten stronger and achieved goals I never knew I wanted. I have now completed triathlons, 6ks and run better than I ever have. Whatever your goals may be - Figarelle’s fitness can help you achieve them and more. They will be your biggest cheerleaders while holding you accountable to what you want to achieve in a very personalized manner! There is no better place or people to help achieve your goals and set new ones.
Steph is a great coach because she knows what she’s talking about and she practices what she preaches. That made it easy to trust her with my training and nutrition. There’s a lot of information and trainers out there, it was difficult to create and/or follow a plan on my own to achieve the goals I had for myself. She’s straight forward, and keeps it simple. She takes into account everything particular to you and your goals, tweaks and redirects you so you can be your best self. It’s been easy and fun to follow a plan that works and to have a trainer/coach I can go to for help and insight when difficulties come up. I’d recommend Figarelle’s Fitness to anyone that’s tired of not getting results, needs focus, or just starting their health and fitness journey.
Best coaching I've ever received! Over the past couple of years I struggled in getting back into a workout routine, mainly not knowing what workouts to do that'll lead to significant gains. I found Figarelle’s in search to help establish a workout routine that was sustainable in helping me reach my goals. I met with Steph and she was amazing; she listened, motivated, planned my personalized workouts tailoring them towards my goals. What I didn't expect were life changing habits that have and will stick with me, from proper technique, nutrition and mobility exercises. Steph has a huge knowledge base on muscle systems and much more. I can get enough in learning about it all and what is happening to our body during specific exercises- she'd happily geekout on it! Working with Figarelle's has been a game changer and has led to great results!
I started looking for more accountability than just working out on my own in the gym. I had been following Figarelle's Fitness online for a while and really appreciated their approach. I contacted them and joined the gym in Oct. 2019. Every one there is a great coach and are always available as an awesome resources outside of class. I could feel right away the interest and commitment that they had in helping me reach my fitness and health goals. Since October, I have lost 20lbs, gained muscle and I'm much stronger. I've also made new friends and look forward to our small group workouts. I recommend Figarelle's Fitness to anyone looking to get healthier in both body and mind.
The slump is over! I first learned of Figarelle's Fitness by chance at the Lost Lake Race in Seward many years ago. Any business giving their time to the community spiked my interest and I started to look for her on social media. I appreciated that she always shared great strength workouts with an emphasis on correct form. I first started working with Steph about 4 months ago when I found myself overwhelmed with workout choices. I, like many people switched to home workouts during Covid and I needed a plan! I was in a slump. My main goal coming into training was to learn proper form and to apply that knowledge to keep myself from getting injured out hiking. Steph has a soft way of getting hard things done. She has a calm manner and really listens to your concerns. I always seem to be learning, not just working out. She really listens to what you want to achieve and I can now say I have a plan. I'm consistent and I know what I'm doing! I feel like I have a trainer and a wellness coach all in one. I recommend Figarelle's Fitness for anyone wanting to get a good understanding of how and what strength training can do for you. It's an empowering feeling to reach goals and Steph can show you the way!
I'd been working out with trainers at big gyms and never quite found the right match. Then a friend told me about a small gym called Figarelle's and it was a match from the start. I've been coming to this gym for small group sessions weekly for the past two years, and I look forward to it every time. There's no swiping your gym card at the door and greeting a random stranger at the front desk. At Figarelle's, you walk in and your trainer is right there to meet you. Every single trainer - Charlene, Steph and Lela - has kept you in mind as they built the workout for that day. Workouts are often tailored to the goals of the people in the room. They're also well-rounded, focusing on multiple muscle groups. Working hard in the gym is the goal, but so is being safe and preventing injuries. I appreciate that when they say you can modify an exercise, they absolutely mean it. On multiple occasions, they have helped me swap one exercise for another that would work better for my needs that day. You've got a spotter every time you're on the bench and you've got a handful of people around you who show up for themselves, but they're also your biggest supporters, too. At Figarelle's, you'll get more than gym workouts. You'll get trainers who schedule special, short seminars so you can learn more about nutrition, losing or maintaining body weight, and setting and striving for goals. You'll get seasonal challenges if you want something more. I check in with the trainers regularly, and every single time I get a thoughtful response. I'm now in my 40s and am stronger and more fit than I was 20 years ago before having two kids. Give Figarelle's a shot. It's led to so many improvements in my life, inside and outside that gym.
I’ve worked with Figarelle’s Fitness on and off for the last 10 years. Over the last 4 months I started with Steph doing online coaching. I regularly go to the gym but was looking for some guidance and someone to help me reach some new goals. Its been exactly what I needed! I get monthly customized workouts as well as help with my nutrition. The workouts are fun and challenging. Steph is easy to communicate with. She’s always there to help and problem solve any issues I may be having in the gym or with my nutrition. FF approach is focused on healthy living and living your best life. Not restrictive fad dieting and “earning” your food! I would 100% recommend Figarelle’s Fitness to anyone interested in improving their lives. Whether you’re just starting on your fitness journey or a marathon runner FF can help!
