I began working with Chris on August 4th, 2020. Over the course of quarantine, I had gained approximately 10-12 lbs and it was weighing heavily on my self-worth. I went from working a job that includes walking up to 4 miles a day, to working from home in ny office each day. I decided that I would change the way I felt about myself and get back to who I was, while getting healthier in the process! I meet with Chris 3 times a week for our sessions and I have noticed a change in not only my weight, but the overall tone of my body. I started this journey at 144.8 (which is a lot for me and my frame). I am currently at 131.8 and hope to get to 125! Of course, I have reduced my carbs and made healthier choices, but I know that working with Chris has had such a positive impact on my journey. I work constantly, have two children, a fiance, and a home to maintain.Chris is so flexible with his time and is able to help me fit getting healthy into my life. I'm grateful that I made the decision to work with him!

I had a personal trainer through a gym membership and felt nothing but intimidation and reluctance to go exercise. I quit the gym and decided to find a personal trainer that would come to my home and work around my crazy schedule. Chris was exactly the right choice for my lifestyle and needs. He understands how difficult it is to be healthy in the corporate world, and he provides endless encouragement on good days and especially bad days. He challenges me every session (we meet three times a week and I don't intend to stop anytime soon.) His price is such a great value for the type of personalized program he has created based on my body type and goals. You WILL see results if you follow his instruction. He is enthusiastic and passionate about helping me and others to reach our fitness goals. I highly recommend him to everyone that feels like getting healthy and fit is impossible. It is NOT impossible, and Chris can help you get there. "

"I couldn't of done it without my awesome trainer Chris McKenzie the best trainer I could ask for!!"I have been working out with Chris for about 6 months & I have seen so much progress in my body since him training me. He is such a good trainer he motivates you, & he focuses on exactly what you want to work on. He knows exactly how to kick my butt in workouts but also knows how to keep me looking fit! He is just an all around awesome trainer & would never be this far into getting fit if it weren't his motivation & support!!

"Chris is amazing! I have never had a trainer before and wasn't sure what to expect. I was really nervous, but Chris is great! He is motivating, encouraging, supportive, and professional. I'm so glad that I started this journey. I can wait to see the final results. Thanks to Chris I'm sticking with it and with him!"Chris is dedicated to his clients and very knowledgeable in weight training, toning and sculpting. He listens to what you want to work on where your weaknesses are and where your strengths are and he builds you a program based on that. Chris is dependable and also flexible with your schedule, he will work with you anyway he can. He is very professional! I always look forward to working out, he has made me feel so much better about myself and the energy I have now has increased tremendously!I would highly recommend Chris as a personal trainer.

Chris, thank you soooo much. The encouragement you gave me as I recovered from my knee surgery was invaluable. Sharing the story of your journey while we worked out helped me to believe i could do it. Also, I have no idea how you managed to give me just enough exercise so that I wasn't ever really sore but still improved every week. I still think about the day I dragged myself down the hall to the gym and when I walked in, I must have looked so exhausted, you gave me a high five for showing up and said everything else I did that day way a bonus. I still give myself a mental high five sometimes and consider everything else a bonus on the days I don't feel like working out but show up anyway. Again, thank you.
