Personal Trainer Overview

Specializing in female fitness and health, FytGurlz goes beyond the ordinary by providing an innovative, dynamic, and affordable health and wellness experience that exceeds the expectations of our clients and optimizes their commitment to self-improvement.

Training Philosophy

As the founder and owner of FytGurlz, as well as being Certified Personal Trainer and Figure Competitor, I understand and advocate for the importance of a BALANCED, healthy lifestyle. Fitness and a healthy lifestyle is not about diets and faddish exercises - it is about making wise choices in activity level and eating habits. Many people fail when it comes to achieving their health and fitness goals because they do not live a healthy and balanced LIFESTYLE and embark on extreme diets and extreme training methods that are not sustainable. At FytGurlz, we provide sensible, realistic, and sustainable training programs that maximize your efforts toward weight loss, fat loss, increased strength, and lean muscle. We offer private, semi-private and small group personal training, as well as group fitness classes and Zumba - all conducted in a private personal training studio fully equipped with free weights, machines, specialized equipment and cardio equipment - all at an affordable price.

Education

5 years Certified Personal Trainer, 2 years as owner of FytGurlz Personal Training and Wellness.

Bio

'm Patty and I am a Certified Personal Trainer, Certified Sports Nutrition Consultant, Certified Total Body Strength Conditioning Coach, and founder/owner of FytGurlz Personal Training & Wellness, LLC., Chesapeake, VA. I am also an all-natural, drug-free Figure Competitor and a Sprint Triathlon Competitor. Above all else though, I have a passion for helping people! My passion and my faith guided me toward the fitness industry, which has afforded me the opportunity to have a broader impact on helping others progress toward their health and fitness goals than I could have ever imagined. I started personal training to provide quality and affordable services and to promote the importance of an active and healthy lifestyle - those guiding principles remain today. As a mother of two teenage boys and an active duty Navy spouse, I fully understand the stress and hustle and bustle of everyday life. Many mothers and working professionals may not have hours upon hours to work out or carefully plan out the minute details of a complex nutrition program - they need a trainer who understands (and also experiences) how hectic life is and can provide practical fitness and nutrition instruction. My FytGurlz Facebook page helps connects those who share similar interests in establishing and maintaining a healthier lifestyle and is a place to share ideas, fitness and nutrition tips, recipes, workouts, videos, photos, motivation, inspiration, perspiration, support - you name it! Although it is challenging to start a fitness program and even more challenging to stick with it, the rewards of a healthier lifestyle are definitely worth the effort!
