Sissel has pushed me past limits I would never dreamed of surpassing

/by

I have trained with a number of coaches, instructors and trainers since high school, and in the last two decades I´ve never encountered anyone like Sissel. She brings the perfect mix of skilled instruction, intense demand, and total encouragement to the gym with each session. She has pushed me past limits I would never dreamed of surpassing, while keeping my safety in mind at all times. I´ve only seen Sissel for four months and am constantly impressed by her approach and my personal accomplishments under her guidance. I have found my personal trainer for life!

You never let anyone give up

People should choose you because you push people beyond what they even think they`re capable of, you are so encouraging and tough at the same time. You never let anyone give up even when they feel like it`s impossible. You really put time and thought into the workouts you plan for your clients that are specific for each individual and it goes a long way in their progress

You truly care about people and their well being

People should choose you as their trainer because you truly care about people and their well being. Since the first time I was introduced to you on my first day to the gym, you were very encouraging and have treated me like family ever since. You are very inspiring to me to never give up and to always push myself and believe in myself more than what I do. Your positivity is contagious to others and your love for people and their health is amazing!

Sissel got me back up and running 5 miles without any pain

/by

When I came to Sissel for help, I was frustrated because for 8 years I´ve been sidelined off and on from running due to pain from plantar fasciitis, my knee, or ankle. It had gotten so bad that I couldn`t run a mile without pain in one place or another. Within just a few months, Sissel got me back up and running 5 miles without any pain. It has had benefits beyond my original goals for coming to see her. She`s helped me set and reach strength, balance, and overall fitness goals I never thought were possible.

It`s the most individualised training ever

/by

Because you train your clients based on THEIR goals vs what you think they should achieve. You teach proper form to avoid injuries. You encourage based on what you learn works best for them. It`s the most individualised training ever

You focus on the clients needs/goals and are always making sure they are safe

/by

Because you are FREAKING AWESOME!!!

seriously though…

I feel that you focus on the clients needs/goals and are always making sure they are safe. You work closely to identify a clients weak area and adjust the future workouts to target those areas. You also keep a watchful eye to make sure a good technique is always used, especially when people are tired and their attention is not there. You push people when they need it but are careful not to go too far. You also provide positive and constant feedback to the client

You really are like no other trainer

/by

You really are like no other trainer. I have seen trainers care about their clients but you go above and beyond. Not only are you a trainer but you are also a friend and every workout you do, you take the time to make sure it is specifically for that specific client.You take you`re time and you are patient. You do not rush and you act like they are your family to you. Not only do you say you care, you show you care. It just apparent that personal training is your passion and you love doing it.

You are the only one I have EVER worked with in my 60 years

I cannot reply to that question as you are the only one I have EVER worked with in my 60 years. I had never stepped into a workout environment / gym in my life until last April with you.I´m still here

Sissel can handle all aspects of having a healthy lifestyle

Sissel pays attention not only to her clients abilities but to how they are feeling in a particular day so she can push them without injuring them. She is knowledgeable about the body and nutrition so she can handle all aspects of having a healthy lifestyle. She can adapt her workout for a client`s particular limitations.

Knowledgeable, encouraging, flexible and available

There is a lot I like about you. Many of the things are givens- You`re knowledgeable, encouraging, flexible and available. But what stands out to me is your commitment to each person. You`re approachable and accessible above and beyond the usual. You really listen to what I´m saying and help me to make goals and push towards them. And there is something about your style that drives me to push myself past what I thought were my limits. I always feel encouraged, never belittled or beat down. I feel like you create a partnership for my fitness.
