VERY SMART PERSON

About Pedgens PT & Fitness

Our gym is unique and the inside and outside areas both created to provide a range of workout options, that a large franchise cannot offer. The small but committed coaching team understands that every client has a unique set of experiences, insecurities and objectives and we encourage you to share those with us! We see our clients as part of our team, not as customers and at Pedgens PT & Fitness, we will listen and do whatever we can to help you in your journey to improving your fitness.
​​

We are all humans and all of us, even as trainers, know how easy it is to put off your fitness goals. There are so many other things to do in life, so staying consistent with your exercise habits and achieving the weight loss, strength improvement, or cardiovascular health results you want, can sometimes seem impossible. That's why we always approach our clients with compassion, not judgement. We want to empower you to do the best you can do with what you've got; that means consistent encouragement, varied routines and expert training.

Have you felt for a while that your quality of life could be better? It could be your body and mind telling you that you need to move more. Gaining physical strength and improving your stamina isn't just about a bikini or gym body - although that's a great goal too - it is also about prolonging your life and making you feel better. Our philosophy at Pedgens PT & Fitness, is that fitness shouldn't be a chore but a joy. We don't believe in punishing your body through dreading exercise, but rather celebrating it by strengthening it! Feeling strong in your body is a powerful tool, and we want to help you get there.
