I only wish I had joined sooner

Before Body Shoppe Fitness I would spend countless hours in the gym and my return on the time investment never met my expectations. After a medical scare in early 2020 I was compelled to find a better solution. Body Shoppe Fitness was the answer and I began training with Tracy in the fall of 2020. Her training expertise has been worth every penny and I only wish I had joined sooner. Tracy brings knowledge, thoughtfulness, and laughs to every work out. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a healthier and stronger self. - Keith M.

I am happier and stronger than ever.

Until now, I never stayed with an exercise program beyond six months. But here I am, in my fifth year at BodyShoppe! And I am happier and stronger than ever. Tracy won’t let me hurt myself and she won’t let me slack off either. I have total confidence in her instruction and recommendations, and it’s an added bonus to get to know other folks who prioritize health while managing life’s challenges. There are always smiles and laughs, and everybody is welcome. – Gail M.

I especially like to have an AllCore360 session before playing golf

When my primary care doc suggested I try the AllCore360 to help relieve my back pain, I was skeptical. Twirling around in a chair for 10 minutes…in my street clothes? How can that possibly help? Two years and more than 200 sessions later, there’s no question of the benefit the AC360 has brought me. The chair is engineered to work every muscle around your core. The tilt angle keeps all those muscles engaged as you slowly turn. It’s a true workout, without much work! I especially like to have a session before playing golf. It loosens my back, improves flexibility and helps prevent injuries. I’m a believer and an old guy with tight abs! - Mike D.

I feel so much stronger

I truly enjoy the group classes at Body Shoppe Fitness and the wonderful people I’ve met. Tracy is always attentive and helpful, especially if you have an injury or just need an adjustment on doing an exercise properly. She is encouraging and supportive in your health and wellness goals. I have also had the opportunity to use the Allcore360 for a year and a half. It has truly helped so much with overall strength in my core and back. I feel so much stronger adding the AllCore360 to my workout routine with Tracy. – Erica M.

I've lost 40 pounds with a greater interest to general health

I had tried several personal trainers in the area and then I found Tracy Sisson and Body Shoppe Fitness. Tracy is very knowledgeable and professional in her work. As a bonus, she is a delightful person. Prior to each session she has already developed an individual workout plan. During each session you get 100% of her attention. All of the standard equipment is available at Body Shoppe Fitness plus the unique and extremely beneficial AllCore360 machine. BSF provides varied sessions that keep things interesting. Since starting in 2018, I have built general strength, greatly improved core strength and improved balance -- plus lost 40 pounds with a greater interest to general health. No matter your age or current physical condition, I would recommend a visit to Body Shoppe Fitness. - Preston M.

The AllCore360 is helping me recover after a serious car accident

I had my first ride on the AllCore360 in January of 2021. My inspiration for this was my husband who had been using the machine for two years. I was amazed at how much his balance and performance had improved. He went from having severe back pain to being able to participate in a very challenging individual training program and walking 4 miles a day without the pain. We were in a serious car accident in November of 2020. The use of the AllCore360 with physical therapy is making it easier for me to walk and re-build my body so that at some point, I will be able to get in and out of a chair/car, and walk up and down stairs without extreme pain. I have made tremendous progress. I’ve been told by the neurologist who is managing my treatment, that I’m about 50% there. I don’t believe I would be anywhere near that percentage without the AllCore360. - Barb M.

My posture and balance have both improved

I started using “the magic chair” [AllCore360] in May 2021 and recently recorded my 100th ride. I have noticed that my core is in fact much stronger. My posture and balance have both improved, and my clothes seem to fit better. – Rick C.

My strength is enhanced tenfold

My experience with the Allcore360 has helped everything from getting on and off the toilet, to getting up and down the mountain tops of the Blue Ridge. After three years of consistently and repeatedly using this device for my core muscles, my steps are more secure, and my strength is enhanced tenfold. The strength it has given me continues to assist me daily. I do not prefer exercise, but I am very active. This is one way to exercise and build core, without working out. – Elizabeth D.

The All Core 360 machine has helped my back improve tremendously

I have been going to Body Shoppe Fitness since December of 2020. Since that time, I have maintained three days a week of personal training with Tracy and utilizing the AllCore360 machine. Both my physical and mental health have improved dramatically. Tracy is an expert at what she does and she delivers her product in a concise and friendly manner. The space at the gym is clean, bright, and energetic. The All Core 360 machine has helped my back improve tremendously, and I am rarely in back pain. This is wonderful given that I had dealt with back pain for nearly 30 years! I would highly suggest Tracy and her team at Body Shoppe Fitness for anyone that wants to improve both their physical and mental health! - Jack S

I feel fantastic

I am so glad I found Body Shoppe Fitness. After my summer fun slowed down here at SML, I found myself getting out of shape both mentally and physically. Now that I work out with Tracy and the Body Shoppe family, I feel fantastic. I look forward to the group training, not only for the workout but for the camaraderie and laughs that come with it. - Elizabeth W.

I always feel better after a session with Tracy

Without the accountability entailed in keeping my training appointments with Tracy, I’m sure I would not exercise and work out on my own. Because I’m there a few times weekly to “report to her," I get my exercise, and I’m better for it. She injects lots of variety and good-spirited humor in our sessions, so it’s never “a drag.” Physically and attitudinally, I feel better after a session with her, as she knows her stuff and what buttons to push to get worthwhile effort out of me. Tracy has become a fine friend over the five-plus years I’ve been a client. My wife, who now also works out with her regularly, would concur, I’m sure! - Al P.

Workouts are challenging and fun

Tracy’s GOT (group) classes are challenging and fun! Routines are varied and can be adapted to fit all ages and abilities. Every class boosts my strength, flexibility, stamina and confidence. Tracy has the gift of making everyone feel special and appreciated. We leave workouts with a bounce in our steps and a smile on our faces! - Randi P.

I love being fit as well as looking fit

In January 2017, at the encouragement of a friend, I met with Tracy Sisson, owner of Body Shoppe Fitness. I started training with her one-on-one three times a week. It didn’t take long for a lot of changes to occur. First, my mental attitude improved (just ask my husband!). I firmed up and slimmed down. The first year I lost 9 pounds. I have since lost 9 more. I love the weight loss, but more than that I love being fit as well as looking fit! Last year, I transitioned to a group class Tracy offers. I still go three times a week, and I’m working out with a diverse bunch of women who train hard and laugh often. We all have a great time with Tracy and each other. Tracy and Body Shoppe Fitness have improved my being. The Zoom classes she offered during the quarantine saved my sanity and my soul. I couldn’t be more grateful. -Jerry C.

In my case, the gain is less pain

This video is of my wife Alice. I am Joe, an an 81-year-old man with a metal hip, a curved spine due to advanced arthritis, and the resultant sciatica in my right leg. The doctor recommended a regiment of exercises to strengthen my core muscles to provide more support to my curved back vertebrae and lessen the pinching of the nerve that runs down my right leg. A few years ago, my wife Alice asked me to go to the gym with her to try a new piece of exercise equipment they had just gotten for core strengthening called AllCore360. Well, I tried it for ten minutes at an 80 degree angle. A few days later I went back and lowered it to 75 degrees and started sweating during those 10 minutes. A few days after that, I realized I was almost done with my shower and was experiencing noticeably less pain. The saying goes “no pain, no gain” but in my case the gain is less pain and I certainly can live better with that. - Joe G

You do not want to miss a session

Tracy’s personal training program is highly individualized and directed toward your wellness and health. She makes working out fun and motivating to where you do not want to miss a session. Her goal is to make your life a better one and she does! - Ann H.

Lots of laughs and sweat

The best decision I made is to join the Body Shoppe Fitness family. Tracy is our motivator, friend and sometimes ring leader. We share lots of laughs and lots of sweat! – Mary T.

No more ice packs and/or heating pads for my back pain

About 10 years ago, I injured my lower back picking up a heavy box. After a few weeks of rest and steroids, it healed, but from then on I always had nagging pain. It would flair up after working in the garden, playing golf or too much strenuous exercise. Ugh! In May 2019 I decided to give AllCore360 at Body Shoppe Fitness a try. I ride twice a week, 10 minutes per session. After about 6 weeks I noticed a significant reduction in lower back pain. After a few months, the pain was completely eliminated. No more ice packs and/or heating pads! I have a strong core, improved posture and feel healthier overall. I highly recommend the AllCore360! - Andie G.
