Testimonials
After a cancer diagnosis followed by surgery in December 2017 and a year of treatment ending in December 2018, I was not feeling my best. I was always tired, I had low endurance and was having trouble with my balance. The medicine I’ll be taking for five years causes joint pain and stiffness. In the meantime, to fulfill a longtime desire, I made plans to go to Israel which would require a lot of walking and stamina. I knew it would be difficult for me to keep up with the tour group. I was concerned I might not be physically able to take the 14 day trip. I realized I had to do something to build up my strength and endurance. I remembered an article I read several years ago about Leah Husk Fitness. I contacted Leah and began training at her studio. I started out with 30 minute sessions twice a week and worked up to 45 minute, one-on-one sessions, three times a week. Wow! What a difference! I feel so much better physically and mentally. I have energy and my pain is greatly reduced. Leah says, “Motion is lotion” and I believe it. I won’t be participating in any triathlons or weight lifting competitions; but I see improvement every week in my strength, balance and endurance. Oh, yes, and I did go to Israel. I was able to keep up with others on the trip and I did not need assistance with luggage. That made me happy! ~Benda
LHF has been a part of my life since it opened in 2010. As a result of consistently working out with trainers at LHF I have been able to combine diet and exercise resulting in a loss of over 40 pounds, a 5 inch reduction in the waist and significant reduction in my cholesterol and blood pressure. All the professionals there are inspiring, creative and fun and working with Leah and her staff brought me the confidence to try new things, persistence through the tough exercises, and celebrating success all without judging my weakness. Thank you Leah! ~Nancy H
Leah and her staff’s enthusiasm for fitness is contagious. Their knowledge and ability to bring variety and fun to working out is truly awesome. Leah’s training style pushes you to exceed what you think is not possible. I am hooked. ~Scott B.
