    Dan has been the personal trainer for my husband and I for about three years. We are in our mid 70's. He has built our strength and flexibility through a double knee replacement and a shoulder replacement. By providing exercises that strengthen my core my cronic back pain is gone. We are stronger, have better balance, are more fit and feel great. He keeps encouraging us to lose weight even though we have not worked at it hard enough to meet our goals.

    Can't say enough positive things about Dan and his training methods. He builds the program around your goals and needs. I have been with two trainers before Dan, and there is no substituting the decades of experience and knowledge that he has. The program he wrote for me was so simply laid out that if it didn't work, it was because I didn't have the discipline, not because the plan wasn't good- so, accepting that a lifetime of good health will come from a 3-4 hour a week dedication is a prerequisite!

    I have been involved in sports and fitness for most of my life. My journey has not always traveled a straight and narrow path. A few bumps and detours have resulted in unfortunate distress that led me into a lifestyle of unhealthy eating and poor exercise habits. As a former fitness instructor, I knew I could be better.

    Dan Kritsonis is one the Pacific Northwest’s premiere fitness consultants. Passionate about health and wellness, and equipped with the appropriate credentials, Dan has been helping others pursue and achieve their goals for balanced and healthy living for over 30 years. Dedicated to continuous learning and innovation, he is focused on my unique requirements and fine tuning my exercise regimen to achieve better results faster while targeting goals that are safe and effective in meeting my needs.

    Feeling good is about more than physical outcomes. It's about emotional victories. After losing 100 pounds, I am on a healthy path to losing the remaining 30 pounds, renewing core strength, and continuing my journey toward emotional and physical balance.

    We all need someone to push, motivate, and guide us, as well as understand our strengths and weaknesses. Dan is helping me get maximum results by personally tailoring my training sessions while coaching and motivating me to do my best.

    With a master’s touch, Dan commits himself to a love of fitness and health. And because he is genuinely passionate about helping me reach my goals, I know I am in good hands!

    My husband and I were looking for a trainer who could work with people in their late 50's, and we were delighted to find Dan Kritsonis almost 3 years ago. Speaking just for myself, I was recovering from cancer treatment when I met Dan. I hadn't done weight training for more than 5 years and was concerned about being at high risk for lymphedema. While getting us going on a routine, Dan studied the facts about lymphedema and designed a routine for me that helped me strengthen my upper body while not overdoing the weight and the number of repetitions.

    Dan is the wisest trainer I've ever met. I recommend him whole-heartedly.

Question and answer

Q. What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A. Make sure the trainer has at least 5 years experience and has worked with a wide range of age groups. Explains to you what expectations are needed to reach your goals.

Q. What important information should buyers have thought through before seeking you out?

A. Hopefully they will have some type of exercise equipment such as dumbbells, a bike, treadmill, or elliptical. Just some basics to get started on a fitness program. Also make sure you have the blessings of your doctor to begin an exercise program.

Q. Why does your work stand out from others who do what you do?

A. I would say my experience in all aspects of the fitness industry. From weight loss, bodybuilding,sports, fitness equipment,and doing seminars. In addition my passion for helping my clients succeed.

Q. What do you like most about your job?

A. What I like most is when my clients follow my advice and receive the results that I predicted they would receive. It's a great feeling to see the smile on their faces.

Q. What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

A. The most common question is how can I reduce my waistline? My most common answer is to push away from the table more often.

Q. Do you have a favorite story from your work?

A. My favorite is when I trained a gentleman for a over 50 bodybuilding contest and he took 2nd place. To watch how excited he was thrilled me.

Q. How did you decide to get in your line of work?

A. After working in a health club atmosphere for quite a few years I wanted the one on one private approach to personal fitness training. In this type of atmosphere it is much more on a personal level.

Q. Do you do any sort of continuing education to stay up on the latest developments in your field?

A. Even with the 30 years of experience that I continue to learn more and more through seminars, clinics, and through the National Strength Coaches Association. There is no substitute for learning more.
