Featured Clients!

MEET HARRIET AND JOHN CHARLES!


  I began working with Harriet a year and a half ago out of the YMCA.  She has been a part of the Myrtle Beach community for a long time, along with the incredible Charles family-her 3 kids and her cool husband John.  We started off with very beginner training style but she has advanced to one of my strongest clients today!  It didn't take long for her husband John to start to notice how incredible she was looking and feeling and wanted in on the action.  John started joining us at our workouts and soon became a permanent fixture.  Soon, the same results were happening to John! He began leaning out, while his endurance and strength has increased by leaps and bounds!  It is such a joy to workout with them because they are always ready for the next challenge. There isn't any routine I give them where they don't give it 100% effort.  Their style is fast paced free weights coupled with body weight exercises.  Of course we always manage to fit in some sprints, kettlebells, and ball work along with good conversation and a great sweat. 


I sat down with Harriet and John and asked them a few questions you may find interesting!

What types of workouts were you doing before working out with me?


Attending spinning, yoga, pilates or body pump classes sporadically, walking with a friend, attending the gym alone and walking on the treadmill for approximately thirty minutes. Originally, I thought I would spend four to six weeks with Molly to get in gear, get a routine and then I would be on my own to carry it through; however, Molly made the workouts so much fun that eighteen months later, she is still motivating me to improve in strength and in cardiovascular fitness.


Why did you hire a personal trainer?


I felt sluggish, unhealthy and out of shape. I knew to get in shape I needed to make an appointment with a trainer so that I would show up for the job and get to work! I have had quite a few trainers through the years and I have never had one that is as dedicated, professional, full of fresh routines and is so much fun.


My husband saw how enthusiastic I was over the results I had gotten from working with Molly so he decided to join me in my training sessions. He has now been working out with Molly for about six months and I can see vast improvements in his health and fitness. Molly makes our workouts so much fun that working out together is like a team building activity. She is making a big difference in our health.


What changes have you seen in yourself since working out with me?
 The results of my bone density test showed improvement. I have more energy, my clothes fit better and I am stronger and in better shape than ever before in my life.


Why would you recommend someone else to workout with me?
 During this year and a half of working out with Molly, she has never repeated the same workout. I am never bored. She keeps me focused, on task and always knows how to push me and keeps me motivated.
Its no secret what the benefits of weekly workouts can do for your mind and body!  John and Harriet are a real life couple that has demonstrated those benefits.  There is nothing more rewarding to me than to see my clients succeed in thier goals!!
