I'm in my mid-40s and have been working with Colt for about 4 months now. I had knee surgery about a year and a half before finding him. Pre-surgery I had always kept in shape through walking, biking, yard work, dancing, etc. Post surgery I had put on weight and I often needed a walking stick for balance.
I had never gone to a gym. They're intimidating, crowded, and smell weird. After struggling to exercise at home with no results, I finally conceded that I had no idea how to exercise post-surgery, especially without injuring myself. I needed help.
Colt is very welcoming and met with me initially to learn my history and find out what my goals were. He explains things clearly and concisely. Colt helped me ramp up slowly, building my muscles and improving my mobility and balance over time. We started with personal 1 on 1 sessions and now he guides me through weight-lifting, mobility exercises, and conditioning. Need to let off some steam? Conditioning is definitely the way to go!
This woman who was scared of gyms is now going 4 days a week voluntarily. I no longer need a walking stick at all and the pain in my knee has reduced significantly. The doctor has been really impressed with my progress in just 4 months. I'm cleared to go hiking/caving next month. Colt knows his stuff and I can't recommend him highly enough. Plus the gym doesn't smell weird!
