I have been working with Andrea for over half a year now, and I am truly enjoying her fitness training services. I came to her a pretty seasoned long-distance endurance athlete, but wanted to work on my strength, speed, and flexibility. She has definitely delivered. Every three weeks, she write me a new set of dynamic flexibility, strength training, and sprint workouts. They work my entire body in a doable amount of time, and I have seen great results. I have gained flexibility, become a faster runner, built lean muscle, and significantly decreased my body fat. She is also knowledgeable about nutrition and has helped me to severely reduce my sugar habit and up my protein intake as a vegetarian athlete. The best part is that I've discovered how fun it is to lift. As a petite woman, Andrea has helped me feel confident in a weight room, among all the big, burly bros. I can't wait to get back in there and continue to lift heavy and see my strength progress.

I was fortunate to have 6+ months with Andrea and wish I could move her with me to Seattle! She's dedicated to her job and to you... as each workout is individualized, each session is different, and she takes a stepwise approach in your progression. As a healthcare provider in sports medicine and orthopedics, I am very particular about proper biomechanics and injury prevention. Good news...Andrea is also very particular and precise! She breaks down each exercise, showing you how to work through it correctly and safely. She is a stickler for proper technique, posture and form so that you can maximize the benefit of each rep, set, etc. She pushes you beyond what you perceive as your limits, but not to the point of suffering. If you are looking for a personal trainer who is a "rah-rah cheerleader" to get you through, look elsewhere. Andrea motivates by having high expectations, pushing you to work hard through each exercise, and having pointed discussions on your nutrition and lifestyle habits outside of the gym. All she has to do is give you a look, and you know you should and can do better! I completely trust her ability and knowledge, as I felt energized, healthy, strong and motivated...and people around me noticed the changes too. No matter where you are with your fitness goals, having a trainer as knowledgeable as Andrea will help you achieve what you never thought you could!

Andrea and I started working together in January of 2013. Her approach, as I understand it, is to build up your strength. The rest will follow. I know that is greatly simplifying what she does but it's easier for me to say it that way. She's learned to laugh at my jokes and witticisms, even if they're not funny, and I have learned how to engage better with a professional trainer. I'm still learning. Ask her, she'll tell you. You won't reach your peak with solo work-outs. If you want to get in shape - really in shape - pair with a professional. I found I that I didn't have the motivation to push myself as far as I could. Andrea does that. She's learned enough about my fitness levels to tailor my workouts to push me as far as I can go, and then some more. Then bring me back. I would never do that on my own. Andrea provides me with workouts I can do on my own when I go to the chain health club in my neighborhood on my "off" days. I'm not that creative for fitness routines. When I do one of her "homework sessions" my inspiration and my motivation is imagining she is standing next to me encouraging me to go on. Powerful stuff. It's hard to explain but I feel it. Like a ghost or a presence, in my head of course, that keeps me going when all I'd rather do is go to the Mexican restaurant in my neighborhood and have a margarita. At 500 calories, each. And when those homework sessions get too easy (as in, I find that I can now do what she asked me to do) she makes them harder. Fitness is not easy. There are always the "5 minutes to flatter abs" or some such junk. It's hard work. Andrea makes sure of that. And whenever it gets easier, she knows how to make it that much harder. Not too much harder, but hard enough. It takes time. It takes a longer viewpoint than losing 5 pounds for the new bikini season or for that reunion you want to look good for. Andrea is a gem. She is, by far, the best coach/trainer I have ever worked with. I've worked with a few over the last 7 years. I highly recommend Andrea as a personal trainer. She is professional, knowledgeable, concerned, and tough. She is also there for you as you engage on your fitness journey. She's on my, and your, side. You could do far worse than Andrea King. It is very difficult to do much better.

I've gotta say - I've never had a personal trainer before and when I first signed up for sessions with Andrea I was not sure what to expect. I didn't know if I'd feel overwhelmed or if I'd even have the confidence to do any of the exercises because all of this was new to me. I went in complaining of a sore lower back and chronic IT Band Syndrome both of which seemed to make certain exercises very difficult or some, flat out impossible. Andrea was nothing short of amazing! She knew exactly what things to do to strengthen my core to help support my low back. She understood what IT Band Syndrome was and helped me work around or modify certain exercises which would cause it to flare up. She taught me a series of stretches to do in order to target areas where I was tight. Andrea has been my fitness coach for over 2 years now and she is phenomenal. Not only is she a great coach in the gym but she motivates me to exercise and evaluate my nutritional needs when I'm on my own. I have never felt better or more balanced in my body! I think that the thing I like the most about Andrea is her knowledge and her attitude. I feel 100% comfortable performing any exercise with her because I trust in her years of experience. I love her attitude because she has the right blend of fun personality while still being tough! She makes working out FUN and you really feel a sense of accomplishment when you train with her. She's a no gimmick coach. She does things by the book and places huge emphasis on correct form. She is hands down the BEST personal trainer in San Diego.

Andrea is incredible! I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone in the San Diego area searching for a nutrition coach and or personal trainer. I came to Andrea as someone who had been working out and dieting on their own for two years and simply not seeing the results I desired in regards to performance and or physical development. However in only four months of working with Andrea as my nutrition and exercise coach I have seen three times the results then the cumulative changes I saw in my body and performance from the two years prior. My body fat percentage has dropped (which has been a long time goal and was something I struggled to achieve on my own,) Ive shredded a few inches, and Ive gained muscle/strength in very practical ways. My performance has overall enhanced. I find myself able to do things now I never thought I could like hold a crow pose in yoga class and do a few pull ups without assistance! But the reason I have and will continue to suggest Andrea to friends and family is the time I save by working with her. Andrea creates intelligent exercise programs that are fun to do and that fit around your life. My time in the gym before working with Andrea use to run two hours or more 5 days a week, now I am there for only one hour, three days a week and am seeing FAR better results. This is because she creates routines that are put together wisely and efficiently and that allow for proper recovery. Furthermore Andrea is the real deal when it comes to a thorough knowledge of the human body and its physical/nutritional needs. In so the work you do with her wont just help you look better, but also feel and move better. Mobility, flexibility, joint health, and other less aesthetically driven parts of maintaining a healthy body over the span of your life are often overlooked by other personal trainers. Andrea however is holistic in her approach and has helped me meet aesthetic goals without risking the long term health and function of my body. My flexibility and mobility especially in my hips and shoulders have increased drastically since Ive been following her guidelines for stretching and foam rolling. With the increased mobility came better form and better results as well as an overall more comfortable body when at rest. No matter where you are at: if youve been working out for years or if you have never lifted a weight before in your life, working with Andrea is a smart move. Youll see results, learn skills and tools in regards to nutrition/exercise that you can keep for a lifetime, and youll have a supportive and knowledgeable trainer to turn to when you have questions, need a little push to keep going, or just want to celebrate how far youve come.
