Fitness Testimonial from my client Nicole Leamer

My client Nicole is amazing. She is a person with determination like no other. She wrote this testimonial 4 weeks prior to the picture below. I'm so proud of her results!!



"Six months ago, I toyed with the idea of signing up with a personal trainer for the first time in my life. Having always been a fairly active person, I’m probably more fit than the average person my age. However, over time, I found that pounds had slowly crept on, and I’d grown more and more dissatisfied with my state of fitness and, I’ll be honest, my appearance. I really needed to shake up my fitness routine, because ‘routine’ it was, and I was bored by it.

I signed up with Alcine for 3 main reasons: 1) To be pushed in my workouts, 2) To mix up my
routine, learning new techniques, machines, etc., and 3) To see how my fitness level could change if
I took my personal preferences/techniques out of the equation. After training with Alcine for several
weeks, I can say I have never been stronger, ever, in my life. My workouts are more efficient, my back, chest, and other neglected parts are at their best, my instability issues have been resolved (I’m now equally strong on my left and right sides), my balance has improved dramatically, and I have completed so many workouts that I never thought I could do (ahem, bench press).

My 4 favorite things about working out with Alcine: 1) Every workout is new and different—
I’m always challenged, interested, and engaged, as we go from classic weightlifting moves to novel uses of machines to Pilates and boxing and throwing tires, 2) Workouts are perfectly tailored to my physical limitations (for example, tendinitis in a joint) and there are always a variety of alternate workouts for me, and 3) Alcine’s personal style of encouragement and accountability combined with her belief that YES, you can do a few more reps always drives me to do all I can every single session.

I never thought my instability issues would improve so much, or that I’d have so much fun each and every session, all while getting great definition in my arms, legs, and back. For anyone who is
considering signing up with a personal trainer, to jump start their fitness routine, get back on the wagon, or lose fat and gain muscle, I can’t recommend Alcine strongly enough. Alcine’s own personal fitness and health journey is simultaneously inspiring and relatable, and her knowledge as a fitness professional is broad and always growing. She has a true passion for health, strength training, and helping people improve their lives. I’m so glad I signed up with her 6 months ago, and I can’t wait to see where I’ll be physically in 4 weeks for my wedding!"

It's time for a change!

Happy Sunday, 2020 has definitely been a year for us all. I went into 2020 bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, excited to crush some goals and help others to do the same and then COVID-19 happened. I watched friends suffer through this disease, people die and others who felt it wasn't that serious. I also lost my dog, Meeko. I had her for 10 years and losing her was like losing a piece of my heart. 2020 really did a number on me and my mindset.  I tried to remain positive and focused throughout it all. During my 6 week furlough from work, I found joy in teaching virtual classes which was great because I was able to lose 30 pounds. But as I returned to work, returned to life, my weight fluctuated about 10 pounds in either direction due to depression and stress. What was worse was even though I was returning to my normal life, "normal" wasn't normal anymore. Usually after work, I would get my son and my boyfriend and I would spend 1-2 hours in the gym before going home. With

Thoughts from AlcineXtreme: Fitness Deposits

Throughout my classes, I sometimes talk about things that I feel would be great to share with the public. Unfortunately, I never write it down and I typically forget about it. Not today though!!! While teaching my spin class this morning, I was speaking on "Fitness Deposits" while we were in the middle of our climb. (I always talk through my classes to give them something else to focus on than the burn)  So, I was telling them every time they do something active (i.e. attend a workout class, train, walk, etc.) and eat something healthy, they're making deposits to themselves. Think of your body as an interest bearing account. Some people's interest rates are better than others and that is why they see results faster. Some of us have had such bad credit with our body that it takes us making bigger deposits to see any results. However, just like with credit, you can fix your health. It does take time, patience and discipline. Remember, consistency is key, if you have
