What People Are Saying

 

“Mary is awesome! If you want to get into shape this is the gym to join. Not sure about joining a gym, they have PLENTY of programs at such a reasonable price that will definitely fit what you are looking for. From intermediate to advance CHECK THEM OUT!!! You won’t be disappointed”

— Shayla Williams

“As a personal trainer and nutrition coach, I had gotten to a place in my fitness where I was bored. I needed a push. So, I knew Mary through a network of people and hired her. From day 1, I felt like I had never worked out before. And I was doing it online. I have learned more about the science behind the "why" in 6 months than I could have imagined. The nutrition has changed my coaching style for my clients. In meeting her other clients, I have seen that Mary is adaptive to all levels of fitness. She has a tender hand when needed, and closed fist when appropriate (I say that with love ❤).”

— James Kean

“Been training with Mary Cain for only a couple months and have already seen a big change in myself. She keeps you on track and is very encouraging. Mary is an awesome trainer and extremely sweet person! I’d recommend her to anyone with any kind of fitness goals!”
