I came to Karen after I finished my treatment for breast cancer. Taking care of my body was a priority and personal training was a gift to myself after a grueling year. It is now 5 years later and I am still fully committed to my weekly sessions with Karen. I feel I am in the best shape of my life, and just as important, I know I have made a lifelong friend. Karen focuses not only on physical goals, but also nutritional and emotional. I am usually a little sore after every workout. It's a good sore - I know I accomplished something. Karen is extremely knowledgeable. She continues to pursue different accredidations in her field. Her clients benefit from her deep well of expertise. I can honestly say that she has changed my life with regard to exercise. It is no longer something I dread, but rather look forward to! One of the best parts is that she teaches exercise routines that you can do easily at home, on your own. On most days of the week I incorporate at least 30 minutes of exercise a day on my own. I attribute this to Karen. I am much more conscious of taking good care of myself. Karen is a true professional. All appointments begin on time. If you have questions, she makes herself available outside of your sessions. I work with Karen at Personal Best in Garwood, NJ.

I came to Karen with three herniated discs in my lower back. Quite a challenge for any trainer but Karen totally surpassed my expectations. She understood that I could not do certain exercises (lunges) and never pushed when I said I couldn't do it because it pushed on my disc/nerves. Other trainers I have had said to push through but Karen was compassionate and understood my limitations and did not want further injuries. Karen was also very motivating which I totally needed. When I didn't want to work out she pushed me (gently) and I felt amazing afterwards. I always look forward to the workout and see the results of my work! I use a lot of the tools that Karen has given me at home so I can continue on my weight loss, strengthening and toning journey. I also think back to our discussions when I am making potentially bad food choices. Like a canary whispering in my ear!!.

I have known Karen Megaro for over 6 years. I came to her overweight, frustrated, discouraged and needing help to make big changes in my life. It was the best decision I ever made.! She is the most encouraging and supportive person I have ever known. She knew exactly how I was feeling and knew just what to say and do to get me moving in the right direction. I never felt overwhelmed, and yet had never worked so hard in my life. As my workouts got tougher, she was right there by my side as my biggest cheerleader. And as I saw the pounds come off and saw muscles where I never had them before, I got more encouraged and looked forward to my sessions each week. Not only did Karen help me get in shape, get healthy and lose the pounds I wanted, she made the journey fun and I made a great friend along the way! She takes the extra time to explain everything as you go along and has always been willing to offer help and encouragement outside our sessions. I highly recommend her!! Amy W.
