Life without limits...
It is with the greatest pleasure that I recommend Belinda Balogh as a personal trainer. I have known Belinda in a business capacity as a client since 2001. She came to our offices at our request and worked with us as a trainer for several months. We all thoroughly enjoyed the workouts that she designed for us and appreciated her knowledge, professionalism and flexibility. She was always on time and fully prepared. Belinda's gentle encouragement in pushing you to the next level is very motivating. She is an inspiration to others because she "walks the walk and talks the talk," applying what she teaches others to herself.

I came to Belinda in 2006 after injuring my back. I can't say enough about how working with her has helped me stay healthy and pain-free. Belinda is awesome and is one of the reasons that I am upright and ambulatory! I could barely touch my knees when I started in 2006 and now I can touch my toes and am so much stronger. Belinda was able to work with me at the level that I was capable of and just push me enough to help me make incremental, but noticeable progress without re-injuring myself. I have followed her to three different locations to continue to receive her fantastic guidance and instruction!

I enjoy working out with Belinda Balogh because she holds ME accountable
for my workout. She makes me push myself to my fullest potential. And even
though I may be cursing her in my head, when the workout is done I feel
accomplished and healthy.
I have had a shoulder injury recently and Belinda customizes
my workout around that restriction. It's also fun to workout with others. Talking and laughing
during the workout makes it WAY more interesting and an hour seems to FLY
by.

I have attended Belinda’s Pilates and strength training classes for over three years. I get so much from these workouts, and I feel energized after each class.
Belinda is great about tailoring exercises to an individual’s specific needs. Her modifications allow each person to participate in an exercise at their unique pace and ability, while respecting limitations. Her warm and genuine encouragement enhances one’s motivation to keep striving for improved performance. I feel safe, knowing that my particular needs will be respected and addressed.
Additionally, I feel relaxed with her and others attending her classes. Belinda’s exercise programs have really been an ideal form of health insurance. I have some of the “classic Boomer-Age” physical conditions, such as osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and struggle with weight control, and she has helped me with these issues. Belinda is the quintessential Baby Boomer fitness instructor! She knows what we need, want, and what we can benefit from in a workout session. What more could you ask for?

Class starts at 7:30-AM and I woke up at 7:15AM!!!! Jumped out of bed, put my workout clothes on, jumped in the car and made it to a class that I do not like to miss … PILATES!!! Belinda is wonderful and we all feel so much better after the class than we did before class!!

I asked myself “what is the number one cause for getting out of
shape?” and it all boils down to one thing, excuses. I’ve joined
gyms and had excuses like, “my circuit gets interrupted by other
people using the machine I want to use” … OR “I don’t
want other people watching me.” … Or just, “I’ll
go tomorrow.” Meanwhile, my monthly dues keep racking up and, other
than the guilt of the money, I keep procrastinating and am not accountable
to anyone for my laziness or procrastination.
Well, I have no more excuses now. I am accountable to MY TRAINER.
Belinda, of Baby Boomer Fitness Solutions, has helped me set my fitness
goals, and is both encouraging and supportive. Belinda offers a variety
of classes that are perfect for us, Baby Boomers, who are or want to be
active and yet feel threatened by overzealous fitness fanatics. Whether
you are getting over a surgery and need an adaptive program to rehabilitate
you back into action, or are simply trying to see your toes again, she
creatively designs the exercise program that puts you in the zone to accomplish
your goals. Belinda’s circuit training class is so much fun. Every
session, she brings out different “toys of torture” of which
we laugh, we moan, we catch a glow … and I feel things firming up,
but I have never been overworked to the point that I was so sore, I had
to come up with an excuse to skip the next class. Because of her small,
personalized class sizes, each class is comfortable and motivates each
participant to connect with other class buddies … and yet Belinda
is right on us, to make sure that our form is correct and we are getting
the most from the time we are putting into each exercise.

I’ve been a busy athlete most of my life. Like many of you, I’ve had more gym memberships than I dare admit to. Boomer Fitness has been more fun and far more effective than any fitness activity I’ve done in my adult life! Come join the fun and get benefits you never expected!!

Working with Belinda is one of the best decisions I've ever made. She provides personalized training geared more to my needs (I’ve had a hip replacement) and takes a holistic approach coaching me on nutrition to fitness to lifestyle. Because of Belinda’s help most people can't tell that I've ever had a hip replacement. My right side is much stronger and pain free. Belinda is one of the most professional, well versed trainers, and caring human beings I have the good fortune to know, and recommend her highly!

“Belinda is truly concerned with the health and well-being of her clients. She designs a work-out schedule, coupled with a nutritional plan that helps her clients achieve the physical and weight condition they desire. She is sensitive to the needs of her clients and pushes just the right amount to accomplish those results. If you're looking for a personal trainer who will really help you get into the physical condition you want, Belinda is the person for you.”
-- Ham Thorne
As one who's worked out his entire life at gyms and with trainers, I highly recommend Belinda. Having attended Belinda's Boot Camp, I can attest to Belinda's knowledge of her craft and the passion she demonstrates at each session. Each workout is varied, targeted, taxing, but made enjoyable, by her smile and enthusiasm. Belinda very much wishes all of her clients success in reaching their fitness goals. If you're looking to start a fitness program or looking to increase your fitness level, please contact Belinda.

I am excited to recommend Belinda Balogh as a Certified Personal Trainer! She has been a huge part in my weight loss and toning success. I started working with Belinda at the end of January, 2008, after becoming engaged to my boyfriend, and realizing I needed some sort of help fitting into my ‘perfect’ wedding dress! Until July, 2008, when my fiancé’s job was relocated to the East Coast, Belinda and I met twice weekly. The original reason I chose Belinda was because I felt more comfortable with a female trainer and never regretted it for a second! However, as Belinda and I developed a professional trainer/client relationship, I found her to be insightful, proactive, funny, and intuitive.
Regularly, Belinda performed monthly body composition measurements, along with a ‘report card’ to keep me up-to-date on my progress. She provided professional direction regarding a well-balanced, correct caloric meal plan, with foods that I actually enjoyed eating. Something that I didn’t expect was that Belinda kept me on task with my nutritional plan, by via face-to-face, email and/or phone communication. She was genuinely interested about the feelings I was experiencing during the changes during my program. This type of regular “checking” made me accountable to myself, and educated me about the “whys” of changes and emotional feelings I was experiencing.
Always upbeat and supportive, Belinda always listened to my needs, and adjusted my workout often to keep up with the changes my body was making, as I became stronger, lost fat, and toned up. She understood my weaknesses, and made herself available by phone and email for those times when I might need some advice on the nutrition plan (or just a boost of motivation)!
I enjoyed her emphasis on Pilates work, during each workout
session - it really surprised me how well this exercise method
toned and strengthened my body! It looks easy but it’s tough and
it works!!! Belinda never missed an appointment. Additionally, if I was
interested in changing my appointment time, Belinda did whatever
she could to accommodate my very busy schedule.
I never ‘dreaded’ going to the gym, since I knew that I would
have her supportive guidance, her caring exuberance, and professional expertise.
She is a joy to work with, and has always been extremely supportive of
me as a client and as a person. When I needed tough, she got tough-- never
letting me slack off. However, when there were days that I needed something
less intense, she intuitively knew, and pushed me to just the “right
amount” of intensity.
In conclusion, I wish I could continue working with Belinda.
She really provided me the right tools and inspirational direction
I needed to continue on my own (until I find a new trainer
on the East Coast). Trust me, if you are looking for that special
trainer that is professional, genuine, warm, respectful, and knows how
to read you as a person, go to Belinda - she’s fantastic!! Thanks to Belinda, I’m a fitter, healthier
bride for my wedding in October!
