I can show and explain to you WHY & HOW I can be the right choice to get you to YOUR goals! My name is Bennett I've been training and coaching since 2006, I train clients online with individualized programming and nutrition through my personalized app & I also have a private studio in Coon Rapids Minnesota! Specializing in: *Fat Loss *Body Transformations *Online Personal Training via a FREE app *Building Lean Muscle *Corrective Exercise, Posture, Eliminating Pain *Overcoming & Working Around Injuries/Limitations *Customized Program Design *Flexibility/Mobility Training *Body-Weight Exercise *Bio-mechanics *Brazilian Jujitsu *Muay Thai Kickboxing *Kettlebells *Suspension Training *Steel Clubs *Steel Maces Major strengths of mine include: Adapting training to work around injuries, limitations or current deficiencies.

This fitness training is by far the most knowledgeable training to fit my particular needs. I am able to work around my physical limitations to get to the muscles that need to be strengthened and stretched in order to decrease my limitations. It is a gift!!

I have been working with Bennett for about 2 months now and am very happy I contacted him. I am pretty new to fitness and have never been a regular gym goer. I always had some excuse in the past, but I became tired of not having the energy to keep up with my kids. Bennett has helped me with my mindset, confidence and persistence in working toward my fitness goals. I was a bit nervous to contact a personal trainer since I’ve never really gone to the gym with any regularity and didn’t know what to expect (plus Jillian Michaels and trainers like her scare me), but Bennett has been the very opposite of those stereotypical personal trainers. For one, he is an excellent listener and wants to know your goals and your body’s trouble areas. He is careful not to push too hard and is very keen on safety. Most importantly, he does things the right way, with the whole picture of fitness and diet and proper form and safety. He will meet you at whatever stage you are at and work with you to increase your health and fitness. One of his favorite expressions is “For now,” as in “Bennett, I am having a hard time doing this exercise.” “For now,” he’ll say, pointing me toward a fitter future. I see a lot of the reviews are from people who have been working with Bennett for 4+ years, so as a newbie I am speaking to people just now considering (or who have hesitated to consider for whatever reason) working with a personal trainer. Bennett is an excellent person to get you on your way.

I've met with Bennett twice; the first time for a consult, the second to begin our workout sessions. We'll be meeting twice a week. A knowledgeable, supportive trainer, he listens and responds to how it is for me to be taking this on after decades of resisting exercise on a regular basis. I couldn't be happier with the way this has worked out.

Whether you are just starting out or a professional Bennett brings a ton of knowledge and experience to the table. I for one have NO IDEA what I'm doing and in desperate need of shedding 100+ lbs... He's never made me feel self conscious or foolish. We do things at my pace and he is always revamping my work outs to fit my needs/capabilities. I utilize both his online app and in person trainings and both are excellent quality. I genuinely feel an improvement in my ability after each work out. I I whole heartedly, highly recommend his services!

I REALLY am glad you feel that way and appreciate you saying that! I'm excited for what the future holds for us 💪🙌
