About

Nancy CarlsonOften the most challenging part of losing weight and staying fit is just getting started. Life is busy, and setting time aside to “work out” is just one more thing to add to the list. As a mom of six, I have this challenge as well. Frankly, like most people I know, I am a work in progress. I believe this is part of what makes a good trainer – the ability to relate to clients and understand the need to integrate an exercise program into a busy lifestyle, without neglecting other responsibilities.

I can relate to late nights and early morning due to a baby in the house or a sick preschooler. I understand relaxing my food standards at the Fourth of July picnic and at Christmas. And I understand being mentally exhausted to the point that I don’t even want to THINK about training.

But I didn’t just throw up my hands and give up, and neither should you. It is not only possible to reach your fitness goals – it will happen! I am living proof. I may not be Mrs. Fitness USA yet, but I have reached goals that others said were just not possible after having six kids and crossing the big 4-0.

My passion is teaching and coaching others to think big and reach high. It takes work – hard work – but I am committed to helping you reach your fitness goals and get in the best shape of your life!
