Who we are:

The Exercise Coach® is the largest and fastest growing personal training brand in the country because we have developed exercise technology and methods that overcome the barriers that keep so many people from starting or sticking to an exercise routine. Our clients achieve the results that matter most to them with just two 20-minute workouts per week in a clean, safe, and private environment.

Our studio offers a casual, fun environment using top-of-the-line proprietary training equipment. Each Fitness Coach works with one person at a time, or a small group of 2-4 people, guiding and motivating them as well as keeping sharp eyes for form, challenges, and safety. The equipment keeps track of our clients’ progress over time so that you can work with them to achieve the results they're looking for.
