Testimonials

Over the past years I have worked with Rob Baehr to improve my strength and endurance and can not say enough about him as a professional and as a coach. When I started with Rob I could not do a push up or pull up. At 50 years old you might ask why you would want to!! It was not that I couldn’t do a push up - it was that my body was so out of shape.

I have lost 52 pounds, I can and have run a Marathon and I can do 100 push ups and I feel and look great. At 56 year of age I have more energy and I am in better shape than I have ever been in my life.

Rob made sure that I did not over do it or hurt myself. He pushed me in a professional way to reach beyond what I thought I was capable of doing. I never in my life thought I could do and feel the way I do today. My change in lifestyle began with that first call to Rob Baehr and continues today because of his friendship and encouragement.

I know that if I did not work with Rob on a regular basis I could easily revert to my old unhealthy ways. Rob is as committed to my good health as I am and that is a great incentive.

I have been a client of Rob’s for about five years.  Prior to that I had used other personal trainers, but never achieved the results I desired.  My workouts with Rob twice a week have produced positive results in a number of ways.  My body has gained definition and tone, my strength has grown tremendously, my cardiovascular capacity has increased and he inspires me to achieve results I would not be able to get on my own. 

It was always difficult for me to train to improve definition and strength without bulking up but through Rob’s guidance and strategic training sessions, I have achieved success.  I am happier with my body at 46 than I was in my early 30’s.  I know that the benefits of training with Rob have made me stronger and healthier and will bring long term benefits to me as I grow older.  It is an investment in my health and happiness that has brought countless positive returns.

I have had the pleasure, both physically and emotionally, of being trained by Rob Baehr and Baehr Fitness for 6 years.  My wife and I have trained on average 3 days per week, setting different goals along the way.  At times, I was training for road races and we would incorporate specific speed/endurance training programs.  Other times the workouts would consist of a mixture of cardio and strength training.  My goal was not to get bulky, as I had been there once before in my twenties.  My goal now was to stay in shape, keep a well toned physique and feel good about myself.

What I have found most interesting about Rob was he always had something new each workout.  I found it hard to believe that Rob had that many exercises up his sleeve, based on my specific goals.  I am 55 years old now and I just might be in the best shape of my life.  My wife Janis works out with Rob an average of two days per week.  Janis is an avid tennis player, therefore her goals have been customized to improve athletic performance.  Rob and Brian both incorporated a lot of stretching/cardio to help keep her in tip top shape.  Most trainers I’ve worked with don’t listen, they have their routine.  Unlike most trainers, Rob listens and understands his clients needs and goals.  He is a great personal trainer and more importantly a great person.

My family has trained with Rob for many years and have found his expertise to bar none. Not only does he understand the personal training business but he has extensive knowledge of the body and what it takes to keep it strong.
Over the past 5 months I have lost 30 pounds and owe my well toned physique to Rob. He has helped me turn my "problem" areas into taunt and firm muscles. I appreciate his ability to set up specific programs that center around my individual needs. Rob helps to keep me focused and knows when I am expecting more than can realistically be achieved.

One of the prize aspects of his personal training is his ability to service his customer whenever or whatever it takes. I am an early morning person, and though it is a lot to ask, Rob comes twice a week to my home at 5 am! Dedication and customer care is #1 for him. Without Rob's help and guidance thru the past few years I don't believe that either my husband or myself would feel and look as great as we do in our mid-50s.

Before I started working with Rob, I had been struggling with my weight for decades, but worse than that I felt defeated by it. Over the past 5 years Rob has been there to encourage, inspire, and push me beyond what I ever thought I was capable of. Rob always reminds me that it is my choice to work out thus empowering me and holding me responsible for my own lifestyle choices.

Training with Rob has been an incredible journey and one of the best decisions I have ever made. If I were to summarize in one word what he has given me, I would say “power”. Rob has empowered me to believe in myself. I can remember in the beginning one conversation we had . Rob said, “ Ok, Pat, give me 10 jumping jacks.” I said, “I don’t jump.” He just smiled and said, “you do now, Pat.”

I am amazed at Rob’s ability to turn everyday fixtures in my house like chairs and stairs into incredibly tough workouts. He has helped me to make the most out of steps, bands, free weights and my 10 year old treadmill. He has taught me that its not the most expensive equipment that equals success, but rather commitment and tenacity.

With Rob’s unwavering support and commitment to helping me achieve my weight loss goal, I have lost over 80 pounds. I know that I can depend on him to encourage me to accomplish more, and to remind me how far I’ve come when things get tough.

Rob is an impassioned, committed and dedicated trainer who’s motto is “never quit”, and I never will, not with Rob by my side.

This fall I am going to be a freshman at Trinity College and will play football there. As an athlete, I have trained with Rob for 5 years and he is the only trainer that I have worked with that really knows how to make you push yourself.

Over the past few years, I have sustained several sport related injuries including a fractured back and a torn ACL. Rob was able to change my workout program that worked around all these injuries which allowed me to stay in great shape while recovering.

This past year I have worked with Rob twice a week with the goal to increase muscle mass. I have put on 10 pounds of lean muscle by following the program that he developed for me.

I highly recommend working with Rob/Baehr Fitness.

I’ve lost 40 pounds working out with Rob and Brian over the past three months, which is pretty incredible. However, the actual weight loss is only part of the help I’ve gotten from Baehr Fitness. For the first time, I’ve actually been motivated by fitness coaches to change my lifestyle for the better. Rob does a great job of making the workouts truly fun and extremely difficult. I’ve had entertaining trainers before, but never before have I really looked forward to working out.

Training with Rob has truly improved the quality of my life.  I am 64 years old and about six years ago, I began to notice some changes: I huffed and puffed trying to jog down the driveway to the mailbox.  I found an old jump rope in our basement and couldn’t jump more than a few times.  Moving, in general, did not seem as effortless as it used to be.

Rob listened to my concerns and crafted a training program that focuses on function, flexibility and balance.

Today I have a greater sense of well being.  I easily carry groceries into the house, dash up stairs to answer the phone, and walk with energy and confidence.  I work out so I can keep ahead of the inescapable ravages of age.  The sculpted upper arm is just a lucky strike extra!
