Unfriendly, not very kind or inviting as a Personal Fitness center. There are too many other viable options for workout centers like this to spend this kind of money and not feel welcome as a minority

I always want to be as physically able as my body will allow as I age. With the recent snowfall, I was reminded of exactly why I trust Petra and Dave to help me achieve that goal. 8" of snow, with drifting, corner lot and driveway, shoveled by hand in under an hour, no pain, no problem. Thanks Petra and Dave!

I had purchased an auction basket from a fundraiser I felt this was as just what I needed to get my MOJO back. So I set up my Consultation and first 30 minute work w Tyler. I filled out my online paperwork and went on in. My energy and motivation level is not much but Tyler talked to me got to know what I was looking for and my goals. I let him know my realistic exercise levels and he was more than happy to work w me in those. So we did some exercises and he promised to keep in touch until I have my next appt which I think I am going to schedule in 30 days. I have to say he was great and had me so motivated I even took the dog on a long walk later that night.

I am so glad my personal training hasn't stopped during the Covid shutdown. For the past year I've done two 1/2 hour sessions per week at Fitness by Design. The gym is remarkably well-equipped, spacious and well-run. The trainers are as good as any I've had at various gyms and better than most. Training sessions cost no more than other gyms, with no monthly fee. My trainer, Adam Shadwick, was always prepared with a new workout so that I got the most out of my training time. He challenges and encourages me in just the right mix. Although I strive for aerobic and strength sessions on my own between training sessions, those so often get pushed aside. So, when the COVID shutdown started, I knew I needed to do something to keep on track. Zoom to the rescue. I showed Adam what equipment I had, yoga ball, stretch bands, and some dumbbells, etc, he immediately went to work creating routines with body weight exercises and my equipment. I set up my laptop and a smart phone at different angles, log on to Zoom, and he coaches and checks my form from his home to mine. Same challenge, same encouragement. And just as importantly, the same accountability to a schedule to keep me on track.

I had been meaning to write this review, but am finally getting around to it. I cannot say enough good things about Fitness by Design. First, a little background. Last year, I was in town and tried to make an appointment. To make a long story short, I never received a response. I was disappointed and made that known. However, I got the loveliest call from Lisa and she told me the next time I was in town, to come back on the house for a PT session. I finally was able to take advantage of that and had a wonderful session. First off, the facility is magnificent. It's huge, it has every piece of equipment imaginable if you're a fitness n**** and it's all well cared for. Secondly, Lisa is a wonderful coach. She understands the right programming and has a great demeanor. There's a reason that this place has been around for 30ish years and is still going strong. They clearly know what they are doing. Understand that this place isn't Orange Theory. It's a lot more detailed, personal, and as a result, a bit more expensive. However, this is the place to go if you want to take your fitness to the next level with professionals who know exactly what they are doing and how to get you there. I'll plan to visit again when I am back in Indianapolis.

I have been working with Judi at FBD for about a year and feel better at 49 than I have in years. She and the whole staff at FBD are welcoming and positive. Trainers meet you where you are and workouts are designed around your personal goals and objectives. My wife, who was very skeptical of working with a trainer, has recently joined and is really enjoying herself. I'd recommend FBD for folks who are looking to work hard, be held accountable, and do it all in a friendly and supportive environment.

I wouldn't consider myself as a beginner to the gym - but after how sore I feel after my training session with Rob this past weekend you'd think I was! Rob is an excellent trainer - creating effective, challenging workouts that can be done in 30 minutes. He understands the importance of form in regards to safety, but also knows how certain placement can affect which muscles your movement targets. I felt challenged and encouraged to push further and work through each set. A friend of mine has a session with him weekly and her attitude towards what type of workouts she should be doing has changed completely. She's hooked! I typically workout alone, as the gym is my "me-time", and I have a pretty serious attitude when I workout. Rob has the perfect style for someone like me- we focused on the movements and I still felt like I had my time for myself to get my mind in check. I would absolutely go back and encourage others to get this place a try!
