Hi! My name is Michelle Rogers. I am a Certified Personal Trainer (National Council for Certified Personal Trainers), Certified Health Coach (American Council on Exercise) and Certified Group Fitness Instructor (American Council on Exercise). I’m also credentialed as a Senior Fitness Specialist (National Academy of Sports Medicine), Menopause Health and Fitness Specialist (MedFit), and Osteoporosis Fitness Specialist (MedFit). I’m the author of a quarterly series of Wellness Journals. Currently, I am the Fitness Coordinator at one of the country’s top retirement communities. I’m also a proud mother and grandmother.
Used to be, as a busy working mom, I was more focused on everyone and everything else and didn’t pay much attention to my own needs. I had struggled for many years with sticking with exercise. All that time, I didn’t have anyone to guide me through and to help me succeed. I was far too shy, intimidated and embarrassed to ask anyone for help, and no way did I have the courage to just walk into a gym. So I listened to whatever the latest magazine or TV story claimed was good for exercise. And when I couldn’t keep up with it (and never could for long), I felt like a failure. Sound familiar?
But in 2008, I took control of my health. I started exercising and eating better, and went on to lose a large amount of weight. Exercise and healthy eating made such a profound difference in every area of my life, that I was inspired to make a career pivot and become a fitness professional. My transformation not only changed me physically, it gave me a new purpose in life: To help others.
I finally arrived at success because I was fed up with feeling like crap all of the time and I made the decision to try one more time. And because this time, I did things differently.
With my real-life experience and my professional health and fitness education, I’ve learned so much on this journey. Now it’s my life’s mission to help others succeed.
Instead of feeling tired and achy most of the time like I used to, today I enjoy an active, healthy lifestyle. I can be there for my family, friends and community when they need me. I can get down on the floor and play with my little grandchildren, run and play hide and seek, or pick them up and carry them. I can fully participate in life. It’s awesome…more than words can say. I want that for you, too.
The best part is how wonderful you FEEL when you’re healthy and fit. When you feel great, when you have your health, you really can do anything!
And that’s why I do the work I do. That’s life-changing stuff. I want to pass it on.
When I have a client or class participant tell me, with excitement, things like:
“Thank you!! I can do things now I couldn’t do before!”
“My doctor says I’m no longer pre-diabetic and took me off of medication! Wow!”
“I’m sleeping better now, and wake up with less pain!”
“I’m seeing a difference! Look how loose my pants are…these used to be tight! I need to go shopping!”
“My cholesterol has dropped 30 points since my last exam!”
“Wow, I feel so much better now than when I started!”
…it melts my heart. I love helping them. I want to help YOU. It’s what drives me. It’s what gets me out of bed every morning.
