Libby is great! I’ve had chronic pain in my low back/hip for years due to a functional length discrepancy. At times I could barely function and was sleeping on a heating pad every night. Since starting my pain is nearly gone. 10/10 would recommend.

I am a 52 y/o female and am going through menopause and had changes over the years to my body that I was not ok with. I have worked out consistently since I was 16. I was in the Army, and continued my workouts throughout the years. I have had 3 children along the way as well. I thought I was consistent and doing everything right. On the weekends I would let loose with my food intake and alcohol, thinking I was ok and would drill down during the week. However, I could not get rid of my love handles and extra body fat. Then I met Dan and started the “nutritionist journey.” Damn if I was doing it wrong. Now, I eat 5 times a day, I understand what foods should be consumed and when, and what shouldn’t.I have learned compromises to make with myself when I go out to eat and when I drink.In 12 weeks I have lost an inch on my waist and 1.5 inches in my hips. My clothes fit so much better and I feel better overall! Lots of energy for workouts and thru the day. I threw away my scale a couple years ago, and only measure. If you are considering starting this work, do it! You will not regret it!!!

I cannot recommend Basics and Beyond as a nutritional consultant and personal training service more. Dan and Nathan listened first, then formulated a plan to help me get control over my eating and my health without making me feel ashamed of being a larger person. In a little over 2 months I am down over 30 pounds. Candid conversations and prescribing personalized feedback have made all the difference in my success. I have and will recommend Dan and his team to anyone. Whether you want a little nutritional guidance or a complete food intake and fitness overhaul, like I needed, Dan can help.

Even though I considered myself a "healthy eater", I still couldn't budge my weight. I was stuck.What I really needed was accountability, and someone knowledgeable to tweak my food choices.So I signed up for Basics and Beyond's Nutrition Coaching program, and in just one month I have lost 2 inches in my waist and4 inches in my hips! I am very pleased with these results.I enjoy getting new ideas for meals. My coach has trained me to recognize my mindless eating, and how I unknowingly had too many "extras".He is very supportive, and calls me to discuss my next move to attain my goals.This is great support, and I highly recommend it!

I contacted basics and beyond because of there easy scheduling and pricing. I was out in touch with a trainer and got started. Korab is a very personable and encouraging trainer. He’s a supportive teacher and gives excellent critique that makes you want to actually improve.

It is so easy to come in and work with Libby, she makes the time go by fast and even though it can be hard to do some of the things I still push and get them done with her help!

I love working with Angela. She understands the issues that musicians face with playing their individual instruments. She is an accomplished musician and trainer herself. 5 stars for sure!

Dan Difigio is one of the absolute best health-coaching experts I have ever come in contact with. His nice-guy-next-door authentic relatability to the realities of sugar addiction and emotional eating challenges provides space for all to feel safe, supported, and understood. He knows the tools which provide the beacon for healing.A++++

I contacted Dan as I was looking for a nutrition coach who could help me with consistency and commitment to healthy eating and keep me from getting off track.My results from working with Dan exceeded my expectations and his advice significantly contributed to losing over 20 lbs. in the first month of working together.Dan had been a great resource for ideas on how to maintain healthy eating in a consistent fashion. His advice is not cookie cutter but client focused and personalized.What I enjoy most about working with Dan is that he is a steady partner when things get off track or get complicated.I find Dan to be pleasant, practical and easy to discuss issues with. He has provided plenty of encouragement and support.I plan to continue working with Dan and strongly recommend him.

Debora is fantastic! She's attentive, intuitive and creative. She knows just how much information to give and how far to go each session. I'm grateful for her upbeat and positive attitude and look forward to each session. Thank you Dan DeFigio for matching us up!

How do you begin to write a review, when the man about whom you are writing, cannot be captured by words alone? Dan DeFigio has been in my life, as my trainer, my therapist(physical and mental--sorry about that Dan), my nutritionist, my life coach, and, above all, my friend, for 28 years. Dan has taken my broken body(from numerous back surgeries), and strengthened me/conditioned me, to be able to have a life again. Free of pain. Dan has always found the solution to help me find the precise way to allow my body to heal and function; something no other trainer has ever been able to do. Over all of that however, is the compassion, kindness and brilliance of a gentle man with a huge heart. Thank you Dan. You have given me my life back. There are no words that will ever be able to express the gratitude that I feel for you.
