Trainers near Bryn Mawr

“For several years before turning 71 this May, I considered going to a trainer to improve my strength and fitness. But hearing of bad experiences from friends and acquaintances made me hesitate. Common complaints were trainers who lacked knowledge of exercise physiology, did not explain why certain exercises were performed, did not customize workouts, or consider the goals and initial fitness status of the client.Based on the enthusiastic recommendation of my son, I took advantage of a free session and evaluation at Vertex Fitness in April of 2023. I was deeply impressed with Dwayne Wimmer’s thoroughness in evaluating my needs and outlining a workout regimen to address them. After four months of three 30-minute sessions a week, my strength and endurance are greatly improved.Dwayne’s workouts are highly efficient. He leads you through exercises with a focus on proper form to achieve the greatest benefit and avoid injury. Dwayne emphasizes that the purpose of the workouts is not to achieve the same result for everyone, but rather the best result in the context of each client’s individual potential. For those seeking one-on-one, focused, efficient strength training, I strongly recommend Dwayne Wimmer and Vertex fitness.“

“F45 Bryn Mawr has changed my life! I could go on and on. I love that there are dedicated heavy weight training days. I love the space, the studio and the vibe (super inclusive-people from all walks of life and all body types!) I love that it’s only 45 minutes. The trainers (Susan, Nas, Ryan) make sure I am keeping good form. It’s not just working out, it’s part of my lifestyle and it brings me community. High five. Fist bump.“

“I have been to three places for therapy in the last five years. To backtrack, I ‘ve suffered several strokes during the years and possibly have unspecified neurological condition. All three eventually told me that they could not help me. When I came Total Performance, Dr. Vasey truthfully told that she could improve my condition albeit it would not lead to perfection. She exceeded my expectations. I used a cane for years due to muscular weakness. She very patiently kneaded problem muscle groupings have resulted in a very marked difference, my cane collection has far lesser use. Kudos to Dr Caitlin!!“

“Loved the Hammer class! It was great to be able to choose which part of my body I wanted to work on. Mary was informative and fun to have as the instructor!“

“I’ve been a member of Stretch Zone for the past year, and it has been an absolute game-changer for my flexibility and overall wellness. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, creating a welcoming environment every time I visit. The stretching sessions are top-notch—I always leave feeling refreshed and more mobile.

One of the best parts is how flexible the booking options are. Whether in person or online, it’s super easy to find a time that works for your schedule.

If you’re new to Stretch Zone or looking for the best experience, I highly recommend Tyler. He’s the man to see for all your stretching needs—professional, attentive, and genuinely passionate about helping clients feel their best.

This place is worth every penny and has become a key part of my wellness routine. Highly recommend!“

“I worked out at Summit for almost a year and a half and I can’t recommend them enough! This gym has played a huge role in keeping me consistent and getting back into my fitness journey. The facility is clean with amazing equipment and great facilities.

Paige was my trainer and she is incredibly dedicated to each of her clients bringing so much positivity and energy to every session. From day one, she was incredibly supportive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping me reach my goals. She helped me get in shape for my wedding and, more importantly, made me feel strong, confident, and empowered throughout the journey. Paige listens, challenges you in the best way, and always celebrates your wins, big or small. I’m so grateful for my time at Summit! Thank you Paige and all the amazing staff at Summit!“

“I just completed my Meno Consultation with the Dynamic Duo. It was fantastic. They was patient and answered all my questions. Busted the myths and gave me the information I needed to get started to work with my OBGYN to THRIVE through this (you'll understand this statement after your consultation). I came with my note pad but didn't need it. I received an easy read but detailed guide to get me started. I'm so excited and no longer overwhelmed with those heffas Peri & Meno. Looking forward to my 6 month check in. I am confident there will be changes to celebrate. I mean, look at them; they're walking examples of their knowledge.“

A big "Thank You" to everyone at F45 Bala Cynwyd for supporting this community!“

“Blayne trains both of my sons. His training is age appropriate and perfectly tailored to their needs. His services are an enhancement to their craft as athletes in different sports.. He works on speed, strength and agility. He has a no nonsense but caring approach that helps to build character in young men. They know he means business but hat he also cares. They have made commended progress with his guidance. I would like to fit time in my schedule to have Blayne help me address my fitness goals. 100% recommended.“

“I use to workout at Planet Fitness . I liked that it was open 24hr. All most every Planet Fitness in my area , is now 5am to 11pm . The one that hasn't changed their hours, isn't truly 24hrs . I did a search for a 24r gym near me and I found AF . The owner is super nice and answered all my questions . I joined 3 days later. I had my first workout on a Sunday at 2:30 am . The gym has everything . Free weights, machines , cardio ,kettlebells , power racks , a deadlift platform and a jungle gym . What really made a good workout even better . An ex PF member was working out at the same time . We use to have to wait in the parking lot on Mondays ,until PF opened their doors. I wish I had joined sooner .“
