Janeille Kilgore - Age 65
I’m a senior citizen and have been healthy all my life. I started exercising in 1996 after I found out that my cardiac risk was 7:1. I was under a lot of stress from my work and my husband’s illness and death. I have been faithful to my exercise program since then. It has helped me reduce my cardiac risk to well within normal limits and my cholesterol level has dropped. In addition, it helped me get through a bout of metastatic melanoma surgery and subsequent year long treatment process. I feel so much better when I exercise than when I don’t. It has helped my outlook, my energy level and my circulation. I just can’t say enough about what exercise can do for your health. I wish I had started a serious program years ago.
Janet -- Housewife, mother of 2
I was 26 when I had my first child a beautiful little girl. Looking back on it, I had gotten off easy with a modest weight gain of 33 pounds. I knew that choosing bottle-feeding over breast-feeding my weight loss would be slower but I have to admit, at 6 months postpartum, I was devastated. I had even started exercising, but the results were minimal. I decided I needed someone to teach me how to workout, correctly and within the ranges most beneficial for weight loss. I needed a Personal trainer and Taylor came highly recommended. I lost all the weight and felt better about myself physically and mentally. With the newfound strength, my husband and I had another. By the 24th week, I gained about as much as I did full term with my daughter. By the time I hit 40 weeks I had gained a whopping 65 lbs. I had run this course, on a smaller scale before and knew, without a doubt, I would be back to normal soon. I believe whole-heartedly that the benefits of exercise are not only physically seen but also emotionally lived! A special and sincere "thank you” to Taylor for playing such a tremendous role in molding me into the person I am today!
Kimm -- Housewife, mother of 2
When I found out I was pregnant, I swear I gained 10 pounds overnight and it didn't seem as if the weight gain ever stopped. Because of complications in my pregnancy, I was on bed rest, or at minimum, no strenuous exercise. By the end of the 9th month, I gained a total of 55 pounds. I couldn't wait to work out and I went straight to Taylor! With her fitness program, I not only lost the weight but lost 4 inches off both my abdomen and my hips and two inches of both thighs. If it weren't for Taylor, I would probably still be near the 195 mark! The bonus is that I can take my 2 children with me when I work out...no need to find a babysitter. THANKS TAYLOR!
Jackie -- 7 months pregnant
During my first trimester, I became too tired to work out and I over ate. By the fifth month I knew I had to do something, so I went back to the gym. I contacted Taylor and soon started a workout regimen. I see her twice a week now for weightlifting and cardiovascular workouts. The only difference from before I was pregnant and now is the intensity of the cardiovascular workouts. Almost immediately I started feeling better. I had more energy and just felt all around better about myself. If it weren't for me contacting Taylor, and her personalized attention, I don't know if I could have made it this far in my pregnancy. I know I have to be at the gym at specified times for my workouts, and, I really do feel she cares for me and my baby's well-being.
Myranda -- 9 years old
My name is Myranda. I am 9 years old and an ice skater. In August of 2000, I came to Taylor to Start a nutrition program and resistance training. It was hard at first but little by little I began to get the hang of it. I was motivated to continue as my body began to change. I lost 11 pounds in 2 months. Not only did I lose the weight, I got stronger and my jumps in ice skating really improved. Taylor is fun to work with and she encourages me to be the best I can be.
Katherine -- Business Owner, 51 years old (Pre-menopausal)
I am currently going through menopause and have gained over 20 pounds since I was 40 years old. My muscle tone was diminishing and I noticed my energy levels had declined. So, I started a fitness program with Taylor. Today, I am strong, my muscles have regained their tone and I have my weight in check. Taylor has taught me the correct diet and exercise regimen to be my best. It is quite a bit of work, but well worth it. Taylor's optimistic attitude and encouragement makes even the hardest work doable. I look and feel terrific. Thanks Taylor!
Janielle -- 59 years old (Pre-Menopausal)
I started working out for health reasons and since going through menopause, and having had a hysterectomy, weight control has become more of a problem. So, as a Christmas gift to myself, I joined a gym and started working out. I Then I hired Taylor to help me refine my exercise routine. Since starting with her, my leg and back aches have gone away and my stress levels have decreased. Along with this, and most importantly, my attitude about this time of my life has changed and I feel up to any challenges that may come. I would highly recommend exercise to anyone, of any age, and I'm just sorry I didn't get started earlier!
Rebecca -- (Menopausal)
I started working with Taylor about 16 months ago. I was feeling overwhelmed by the "change of life" and thought I had to do something about it. Since working with Taylor, my overall fitness has improved as well as my emotional well-being. I want to keep working out and can't believe I didn't do this before now.
Susan -- Diagnosed with severe Kyphosis
I began training with Taylor to help with the chronic low and mid back pain I had been experiencing. I was a little apprehensive to start at first as I had never really exercised before. I have been seeing Taylor for 3 months now and since starting I have very minimal back pain. Along with that, all of my muscles are being trained and I am feeling healthier. I will not stop training and exercising now. I just wish I started this earlier. My life could have been pain free a long time ago.

After my second child, I had put on 40 pounds and felt a mess. I was fat and felt completely helpless, with numerous dieting failures and wasted trips to a women’s circuit training gym I realized I needed HELP! I found Taylor and within 24 hours she had me at her gym. Taylor made me feel so comfortable with her knowledge of the human body, not to mention that she welcomed my children to come during my workouts.
I have stayed with my workout routine for 6 months I am down to 120 pounds and I feel better than ever. Taylor has not only taught me how to lose weight and sculpt my body, but also I now know how to eat and feed my family natural, delicious meals Taylor has brought so many positive changes to my entire family and we are all very thankful.
Taylor is a terrific trainer and has become a great friend. A HUGE THANK YOU TAYLOR.
