Karen is really wonderful to work with. As someone who is overweight and new to working out I was worried that personaltraining would be too rigorous but Karen has met me where I’m at and created a program that really fits me. She is very knowledgeable and I feel safe because she knows exactly which muscles are doing what and she’s great at gently correcting my form to keep me safe. This is the thing that really sets her apart from big box gym personaltrainers for me. Her certifications and continuing education keep her at the top of her craft. She’s also a really pleasant person to be around! We chat and laugh through my sessions which makes it fun! I have been training with Karen for about a month now and I have already seen a ton of progress! My energy is sky high, my core is much stronger, I’ve even caught myself in the mirror a few times liking what I see already! I feel more comfortable working out on my own on days I’m not training with Karen and I am always looking forward to my next training session!

Karen is timely, passionate, and very knowledgable. Every session she pushes me and I can count on her for that. She ups the weight and reps based on my ability, which shows me how in tune with our sessions she is. Karen is awesome!

Karen is so very knowledgeable in PersonalTraining. Each month she changes our routine up to focus on a different area i.e. Power, Balance, Strength, etc. Our hour together is non-stop and a great workout!!!

I'm still working out with Karen after almost 2 years and still enjoying it. I'm 71 and not wanting to overdo it due to various physical problems, and she has keenly adapted to my slower pace. I can see a very real difference in my arms and am definitely stronger overall. The best part is how nice Karen is and what a good time we have together! You couldn't do any better in a trainer than Karen Grover!!

This is my third month working with Karen and I've had an incredible experience. I was so nervous about working out again since I couldn't remember the last time I lost any weight! She's great at motivation and she really pushes you to succeed. She's helped me believe in myself and I've definitely seen results not only physical, but emotionally! Thanks, Karen!

FAQs
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I always stay up to date on my first aid and CPR, and I am required to take in-depth continuing education courses every year to keep my NASM certification.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
Passion. My greatest enemy used to be my body - and nothing I did seemed to take that enemy away. Through years of battling with weight and food, I have peace and have overcome what I thought was the enemy. I believe that my own journey can help other women overcome too. I've always loved to workout, but being a personal trainer allows me to brings so much hope to other women.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I specialize in training women with weight and body image challenges. The majority of the women I work with need help in one or both of these areas.
