Shape Health & Fitness

I was at my wits end. I had tried Everything! Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers - I'd lose a few pounds here and there, and then the weight would come crashing back. I was about to give up and just resign myself to being fat, but a friend advised me of Vernia Smith and I seen how much weight she lost.. It took me a couple of weeks to get up the nerve to call, but I'm so glad I did. We had a consultation for about an hour the first time, and when he measured my body fat I was horrified. Within the first 3 months I lost 30 pounds and was amazed. I've now trained with Vernia Smith for over a year now. My body has NEVER looked so good as it does today, I can actually see my abs :0) in which I have never seen in my life. I've lost 43 pounds total, got toned up, and have never felt better. For the first time in many years, I am actually looking forward in exercising. Just follow his meal plan and exercise you will see results in no time.\r If your looking for a personal trainer, RUN and pick up that phone contact Vernia Smith!!! He will change your life, promise!\r more

If you are looking to get fit- and stay that way- give Shape a try- I'm glad I did. I achieved my goal of losing extra poundsI gained (and lost 10% in body fat) and did it by following V's advice on supplements and a meal plan. Diets don't work, and you need the right nutrition in order to see results with the weight training. The meals were easy, fast, and best of all, I never felt like I was deprived of food. \r more

Vernia Smith at Shape Health and Fitness is a personal trainer that knows how to get results. His meal plans, supplement recommendations, and workouts have led me to lose 11 pounds in my first month with him. He keeps you motivated and takes your personal goals to heart. I've used other plans like Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, and even other trainers. V is the only one who puts it all together in an easy to follow comprehensive plan. Follow his recommendations and you will see results... stray off the path and it'll take longer to see results. I have no doubt that I will reach my fitness goals with V. more

Seriously, run, DON""T WALK to this studio. Vernia Smith is the most educated, highly effective trainer I've ever heard of. He reminds me of a personal trainer a Hollywood movie star would hire to get them in shape. He writes your meal plan, structures your supplements to fit your needs, and takes your weight loss personally. I personally lost 25 pounds in 6 months! As I grew older, the weight loss was harder and harder to keep off. This is the only weight loss program that worked for me. I've been to Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, Nutrisystem, personal training at multi-chain gyms. Nothing worked like this! I feel and look the best I have and I'm almost 40! more

I have lost 30 lbs and gained muscle and confidence. I have not felt this good in years. V works with what you have and pushes you but not beyond your limits. Thanks! Pros: Shake at end of workout...mmm love the spinach ones more

40 came pretty hard and fast...so did the pounds. I have been working with V for 14 months now and I look like a new man. I shed pounds quickly and am now building the right kind of pounds. I have definition and shape that I haven't had since I was in high school. My wife loves it, I love it, and I wouldn't go anywhere else! more

I have been working with Vernia Smith (call him V) for the last six months and I could not be happier. I have already lost 45 pounds and 7 inches from my waist. The Shape facility is state of the art and beautiful. V's constant support and guidance is worth every cent and I can't imagine going anywhere else. Tell him Renee sent you! more

Can you take a bath in Tiger Balm? I've been working out with Vernia here for the last few weeks and I am feeling it. It is a really good training studio and I think I'll be ready for summer this year...finally. more

Exhausting? Hell yes. Worth it? Hell yes. By the time I am done with my work out, I am super thankful for the cold smoothie and the hot tub. more

This is a great personal training studio. The one on one attention helps keep me going and I am able to get my workout done in an hour which gets me back to work without putting a huge dent in my day. I highly recommend this studio for anyone who is busy, but wants to keep up with a exercise routine. Pros: fast, effective, professional, talented staff more

I just started going to see Vernia here on recommendation of a friend and am really happy I checked it out. He is straight forward about what is realistic and is super supportive about helping you get to your goals. It is almost like having a really cool coach instead of a trainer. He set up a diet and supplement regime for me just for being a client. My last trainer charged me extra for anything other than working out. This place is worth looking into if you are really trying to get in shape. more

I couldn't tell if I was at a spa or a personal training studio. This made me happy from the start. My trainer Vernia Smith is really experienced and has helped me lose some weight for summer already. I love the protein shakes and the awesome slate shower. Pros: Ambiance, Support, Supplement Assistance more

I discovered Shape Health & Fitness in May 07. At that time, I was a 51 year old womand who weighed 198 pounds. I had tried everything to lose weight and get back in shape. I tried other gyms, other trainers who managed to injure me with their ""expertise"". At my very first consultation, Vernia Smith (call him ""V"") came through as confident and knowledgeable and gave me confidence I would succeed with him. Using a program of cardio training and weight training, now, 14 months later, I have lost 65 pounds, have gone from a size 18 to a size 4 (sometimes a 2). He has truly changed my life! I could not have found a better, more positive, enthusiastic, supportive trainer. \r \r I have knee, wrist and should injuries, but throughout our time together, V has been able to modify my routines to accomodate these injuries and still get great results! His knowledge of the body, weight training, nutrition, and supplements combine to give you the best guidance possible and get great results. \r \r If you are in shape and want to get better, he's the one. If you are overweight and out of shape, he's definitely the one!!\r \r \r \r Pros: Gets Results. Personalized Attention. Top Quality Equipment more

I am a current client and have been a client of Shape Health & Fitness for the past 6 months. I am a 55 year old male with no previous weight training. I weighed 198 pounds and stand 5' 9"".
