The one thing you pick up on instantly upon entering Studio 1 on 1 is the supportive and playful atmosphere. It is obvious that both the trainers and the trainees they're torturing are enjoying the experience. I had never had a trainer before Studio 1 on 1. Now I see why they're so imperative if you truly wish to make a difference in your workout...or life, if you really decide to dig in and make it work.\r

When I first decided to give the place a try Bud, the owner, sized up my personality pretty quickly and put me with the trainer he felt best suited what I was all about. Bud could not have been more right on with his decision to put me with Todd. Since I'm a rather foul-mouthed, loud chick who's always striving to push, push, push Todd knew he could be a lot looser with his direction....and mouth...On the flipside, I've seen Todd working with other clients and he's nothing but a gentleman. Personally, I prefer someone in my face pushing me further than I would ever do if left on my own...but, to each his own...and the trainers adapt to YOUR needs.\r
The trainers here really chart your progress, know how to push, know when to add the next level and they're extraordinarily intuitive....about a lot of things, both professionally and privately.\r
I've completely changed my eating habits in the 16 months I've been coming to Studio 1 on 1 due to their counsel. I've dropped 2 sizes in clothing. I've felt ab muscles where I never knew they existed. I know what protein shakes are for the first time in my life. I've developed a different state of mind about health and exercise that will carry me for the rest of my life.\r
Bud told me on the day I decided to join Studio 1 on 1, ""Mickey, this is the best decision you could have made. This will change your life."" I left thinking, 'Sure Bud, I'm sure you say that to everyone'\r
Funny thing....Bud was right. And damn it if that doesn't make me want to clock him every time I see him.
Pros: Plenty of street parking close by
Cons: Next to a McDonalds so you want french fries when you're doing pull ups
