Testimonials
"Anthony is focused on strictness of form in any exercise that we perform. In doing so we have learned proper attitude and body awareness while exercising or competing, thereby improving performance and preventing injury."
"This is without doubt the best exercise program that I've ever been involved with. It permits people of all ability to workout together and achieve the common goal - fitness. Crossfit promotes total body conditioning which makes us more efficient in whatever our chosen field of athletic endeavor may be. The social aspects of group training produce counterintuitive phenomena - I mean, who laughs out loud while having his butt kicked!!"
- Steve - CrossFit
"A year ago I would have used the words overweight, out of shape and sluggish to describe me and my husband, Steve. We had already changed our eating habits and joined a gym, but still did not see any results. It was very disheartening. Then we met Anthony. His professionalism, knowledge, perseverance and attitude helped us meet and achieve goals we never would have thought possible.
For the longest time Steve was suffering with an injured rotator cuff and had limited mobility in his left arm. The simple act of putting on his coat or reaching upward caused him a considerable amount of pain. The probability of surgery was looming. In just a few short months of working with Anthony, Steve and his orthopedic specialist have notices an increase improvement in his mobility ad the lessening of pain. Surgery is being put off for the time being."
"Anthony took the time to get to know our lifestyle. He them formulated a plan that worked distinctly for us, not some cookie-cutter program that we had to adjust to. He wove exercise into our daily lives in ways that were convenient and made sense for us. Anthony rooted us on and cheered every accomplishment. He was confident that we could do it when we were not, and in turn we became confident too."
"The nutritional guidance provided by Anthony helped us understand how certain foods work together and slowly, but surely, the pounds started to disappear. To date I am 25 pounds lighter, Steve 10, and our energy levels have increased. We both have seen an improvement in overall flexibility and stamina."
"To say Anthony changed our lives may sound a bit over the top and slightly dramatic, but he did. We are both healthier and happier than we have been in a long time. Steve and I have gone back to enjoying activities we gave up long ago because we just couldn't do them anymore and lost interest. For this we cannot thank him enough!"

"I have been training with Anthony for about five years. I am a 62 year old woman and I can honestly day that I've never felt stronger in my life. My goal has always been to be healthy and fit at this critical time in my life when a lot of people my age seem to give up and let them selves go.
Anthony's approach to my training has helped me be successful. He understands individual wants and needs. Anthony is an innovative trainer who continues to educate himself on new techniques and skills. He has a very sublte way to challenge his clients so that you in turn push yourself to progress and improve. His upbeat personality never waivers. He is always positive and inspiring."
"I highly recommend Anthony as a personal trainer. I am so glad to have the opportunity to work with him."

"Please let me first take this opportunity to express my gratitude for your participation in the Family Caregivers Wellness Day. Everyone who attended had a wonderful
time, voiced positive comments about the experience, and felt they learned valuable information. Thank you for making our first Family Caregivers Wellness Day a success!"
"The workshop absolutely met the our expectations. The presentation fit well with the overall concept of the day-long event. The workshop met the needs of all the individuals in attendance (age and physical limitations). The trainer was clear and participants easily understood instructions given throughout presentation. The trainer was extremely
professional and sensitive to participants. An example - in one exercise, the trainer recognized an unsafe situation when an elderly woman continued to attempt lifting her leg to reach the seat of a chair - difficult for her because of her height and suffers from kyphosis - immediately the trainer redirected the woman on how to safely complete the exercise in a very caring and compassionate manner. I would highly recommend Evolve into Fitness and Anthony Figueroa to other organizations and agencies, and I certainly will pass along your contact information. I very much look forward to working with Evolve Into Fitness again in the Future!"

"Thank you for your email. I found your presentation to be great and was waiting to get the directions to continue. Your method is so simple and doable."
- Carole, "4 Minutes to Fitness" workshop
"I had been working out consistently for 10 years, and felt that I had plateaued. I was also really sick of the typical "gym scene" and needed something different. I have worked with other trainers in the past, but more in 10 or 12 session packages which were promoted by my former gym. I also was tired of investing so much time and effort, and not really seeing the returns I wanted. I wanted to maximize my time and learn more about fitness."
"I really have enjoyed working with Anthony, he is very professional and knowledgeable. He has always adapted my routine to fit the where I am physically. This included training me throughout my first pregnancy; he certainly made appropriate modifications, and probably kept me from working out to hard. He also adapted my program to keep my back strong to allow for the coming belly weight. I never had any back aches or pains, and was healthy and strong for delivery. After my son was born, the time I had to devote to fitness was extremely limited, compared to the time I had spent in the past. I trained with Anthony one-on-one 3 times per week, and did some running/walking 2 or so other days. I quickly got back into my pre-baby shape, if not better, and even ended up in a smaller size than pre-pregnancy! I also feel like I am setting a good example for my son, as he sees me taking time to work out on a regular basis."
"Working with Anthony, allows me to schedule time for myself, that I generally won't skip out on. That is important when you are a mom. It also is a time that the focus is on me and my goals, again, something any mom would appreciate. I also feel like I am really getting the most out of my time and energy, important since both are at a premium."
"I have worked with many trainers over the years, but Anthony is definitely the best I have worked with. He is focused on his client throughout the session. He is non-judgementle when you've had a bad week eating/working out. He also will really push you to reach your goals."
