Personal TrainingWhat ATG clients say
Strength that holds up outside the gym.
"I've been working with Allison and the ATG system for years. At first it was just to get stronger as I aged. Then I was setting goals for myself like demanding local hikes and hiking internationally in the Italian Dolomites. Allison has led me with thoughtful care and challenge throughout. I'm much stronger now and am able to do more with confidence and ease. She listens to my body giving what's needed. I can't recommend Allison and the ATG system more."
-Suzie K."Alison has helped me strengthen and condition my back, legs, and core with a patient, kind, approach to wellness. I have come so far, from constant sore back, lack of flexibility, and a lumbar injury, to a much stronger legs, knees, back and gained mobility in ways that I didn't anticipate. I'm 5 years into training and am now capable of a full range squat on an incline with no issues. The ATG approach to training has been excellent for my style of fitness."
"I started working with her after shoulder and knee injuries sidelined me from the gym. She created a custom plan to help me get moving again, and I achieved steady gains in flexibility and strength with the Knees Over Toes program. Additionally, she addressed areas of muscle weakness vs. overcompensating ones and as a result my form has improved. Allison is great to work with and is positive and encouraging too. I am feeling confident in my body again and ready for adventure travels."
