BRUCE C. EDMONTON

I trained with Derek for 3 years at Body by Bennett west Edmonton. And felt privileged to have him as my trainer.  Derek is passionate about fitness and training.  Personal Training is his chosen profession, for good reason.  As such, he brings skill, intuition, energy and enthusiasm to each session, without fail.  

Derek made each workout challenging, while being achievable.  creative (there is always something new).  Derek places a high value on correct form with each exercise in order to optimize its impact and to avoid injury. He motivated me to push past my perceived limits to get a better result.  I cannot call the workouts ‘fun’.  I like to refer to them as being ‘addictive’.  

And the results are noticeable.  I have increased energy and general strength.  My balance and flexibility have improved immensely.  These results translate into a better quality of daily life. (I can now shoulder check without effort, garden for hours without becoming tired or sore and shovel the driveway without much effort.) A side benefit:  I've developed shoulder, arm and core muscles for the first time.

If you are thinking about ways to improve your quality of life, Derek will lead you every step of the way.  And it’s never too late.  I am became a senior citizen while training with Derek.  The good news is I feel better now than I did a decade ago.
