After experiencing persistent pain and consulting multiple doctors and specialists, I contemplated the possibility of undergoing surgery. However, since embarking on a year-long journey with Isaac, my pain has been alleviated, allowing me to resume activities I once feared might cause reinjury. Isaac's training has significantly heightened my awareness of posture and positioning during both exercise and movement. This newfound awareness, coupled with pain reduction and restored strength, has transformed my perspective on my body's actions during various exercises. I wholeheartedly recommend personal training, especially tailored to individual needs. Isaac's ability to discern and address my weaknesses has allowed me to connect the dots and improve in targeted areas. This investment in personal time for health has become an integral part of my overall approach to well-being, marking a positive shift in how I perceive and care for my body.

For over eight years, I've been training with Isaac and every session, I jokingly declare that I'm never coming back – yet, without fail, I return each time. The reason is clear: Isaac has been instrumental in helping me navigate and alleviate issues throughout these years. Despite my lifetime injuries, his guidance has not only enabled me to continue walking and moving but has also taught me the importance of moving/exercising with purpose. Without his assistance, I might not be walking today. Over the years, Isaac's training approach has evolved, constantly adapting to new methods and insights. Though I may not always appreciate the changes in his methods, I recognize their long-term benefits. At 78 years old, his training has kept me moving, and without it, the old injuries might have otherwise immobilized me. Unlike some trainers who exacerbate problems, Isaac takes my specific issues into consideration, consistently finding effective ways to produce results.

For the past five years, I've been under the guidance of Isaac, particularly focusing on addressing sciatica. Through his training, I've experienced significant improvements in core strength, balance, and posture, gaining a heightened awareness of movement. Isaac's approach goes beyond mere exercise; he emphasizes being conscious of walking patterns and the proper engagement of muscles during everyday activities like bending, lifting, and twisting. The result has been not just pain-free mobility and enhanced flexibility but an overall improvement in posture and gait. What sets Isaac apart is his attentiveness to my individual challenges, tailoring exercises to address specific issues at a reasonable pace. In Isaac's training philosophy, he places no undue pressure on speed during workouts; instead, he underscores the importance of proper movement. This conscientious approach is especially beneficial when dealing with pain and injury, allowing for the identification and correction of potentially harmful movement patterns.

-Sciatica | Lower Back Pain

In the Fall of 2021, I was diagnosed with Osteoporosis in one hip and my spine. While I'd focused on incorporating strength training into my workouts for years because I'd developed bursitis in one hip and some pain in both wrists and elbows, I'd had to decrease the weight in my workouts. Frustrated and unsure how to return on the right track, I contacted friends looking for a personal trainer with experience working with clients with Osteoporosis. Fortunately, they referred me to Isaac. During the very first session, Isaac helped me make adjustments to how I carry my body so that I move better and hurt less. I appreciate that he explains how the movements affect and benefit the body. I find that I’m far more aware of my position and better able to protect myself from injury now. While Isaac pushes me, he always prioritizes correct form, ensuring I gain the most from each exercise without aggravating my joints. One of the greatest bonuses of working with Isaac is that he tailors every session. Each day the first thing he asks is, "How's your body feeling?" If I’ve got pain, he focuses on that, sometimes altering his plan for the whole session to address that issue…and I always feel better afterwards. When I re-injured an old tear in my MCL, Isaac was instrumental in my recovery and being able to avoid surgery. (My orthopedic surgeon even discontinued my physical therapy after a few sessions, saying that my Functional Patterns workouts were the best thing I could be doing.) I feel stronger than I did when I started. In October 2023, my DEXA analysis showed improved muscle and reduced fat – my doctor and I were pleased! I think we’re on the right track and wish everyone had an Isaac to work with.

With bad sciatica nerve pain, a diagnosis of autoimmune issues, and carrying an extra 100 lbs, I sought help from Isaac. His unique approach to mobility and function not only alleviated my physical ailments but also had a profound spiritual impact, transforming my outlook on life. Under his guidance, I changed my diet, shed 100 lbs, and abandoned all medications, experiencing a renewed sense of vitality and endurance.

Isaac's tailored approach, considering my goals, timeframe, and ability, allowed me to understand our journey clearly. Now, with the ability to run, hike, and climb, I've not only lost over 100 lbs but also bid farewell to medications and inhalers. Isaac's understanding and personal attention proved crucial in addressing harmful movement patterns, enabling me to walk 12 to 20 miles a week—a feat I hadn't achieved in over 15 years. This transformative journey has given me a new body and a fresh perspective on the upcoming season of life.
