Lloyd Athletic Club Personal Training — Local services in Portland

I did a lot of research before choosing LAC and it's by far the best deal in town. I've been training with Chase for about three months now and it's the best thing I've done for myself! It's been a struggle to get back into the gym the past few years and I finally came to terms that I needed a trainer to help jumpstart me. Within minutes of our first consultation, I knew Chase was going to be the perfect fit for me. She's kind, caring, funny, great teacher and motivator. But most importantly, she listens! I have a lot of back and feet issues; whenever I feel physically uncomfortable, I let Chase know and she is able to come up with alternative exercises or helps me stretch. I've had experiences in the past with other trainers and instructors where I felt my concerns were not heard/addressed and their one size fits all solution was to tell me to try to do better at it 😒 Chase has never made me feel bad about not being able to continue an exercise or needing to rest a bit longer. Since training with Chase, I feel stronger physically and mentally and actually enjoy my training sessions. The gym can be an intimidating place for a new person and I highly recommend anyone to get started with Chase to...

I have been seeing Carlee at Lloyd Personal Training since last August though due to traveling and then the pandemic, I didn't have access to training from January through June. Now that the gym has reopened in Phase 1, I have started back for the past few weeks. Carlee and the staff at Lloyd Athletic Club have been following protocol for making the gym and equipment safe for us to use. The club is requiring everyone inside the building to wear masks and to sanitize their hands before beginning to work out, stairways are one direction, and all equipment is sanitized before and after working out during training. Since racquetball is not being played right now, the courts are being used by the trainers and clients so there's lots of space to be physically distanced from each other. There are hand sanitizing stations in various places in the building as well. I feel safe using the gym in this manner, and Carlee makes me work much harder than I would if I was doing this on my own. She's cheerful so it's hard to get mad at her for making me...

This is a review from David Mckinney for my trainer Justin Olson. Many years ago I first started to work with Justin at LAC when I was younger and much more fit. He helped me gain strength and stamina as my program expanded at a comfortable pace. Justin listens and assesses his clients on an individualized basis that makes for positive progress. After a lapse in exercising for several years and having several serious surgeries, I was thrilled to be able to rejoin LAC and work with Justin. And true to my earlier experience, Justin quickly and accurately assessed my physical and emotional condition and developed a routine that was comfortable and yet progressively helpful. I am so grateful for the steady and thoughtful attention he provided so that I regained strength, balance and improved stamina so that I could reengage in the more active life I desire. He wisely confirmed with my cardiologist that there were no restrictions and continues to adjust my program so that I move in a positive direction. He is definitely an...
