I chose personal training because I was looking for a drill Sergeant that would get my butt back into shape after recovering from health problems. Instead, I found Daniel Scherf and stuck with him. His laid back attitude and fun approach to physical fitness put me at ease almost immediately. Remarkably, I found myself being motivated beyond the norm. Dan nurtured my competitiveness and pushed me to exceed my limits; and the results were amazing. He was 100% committed to my overall health and physical goals. I found in Dan not only an amazing and knowledgeable trainer but also a delightful human being, training partner, and a friend.

When I first started working with Dan I could barely do 5 push-ups and I got quite winded on the treadmill after 5 minutes. Obviously I would not have been comfortable in a “Muscle Head” gym so I opted for Personal Training in a smaller facility. Within a couple months Dan had my Cardio health much stronger which in turn helped me to increase my weight training routines. Dan is always right beside you on every exercise to encourage you to exceed, help you perfect your form and have a great time doing it all. Dan is constantly introducing new exercises so his sessions never become dull or repetitious.  His passion for his profession is amazing as is his commitment to his clients’ health goals.  My mental attitude is stronger, I am more confident in my profession, I can hike Pinnacle Peak with the best of them, and best of all, friends and strangers alike are taking notice of the hard work and the physical changes that are the result of excellent, consistent, professional training.

Admittedly, I was a bit skeptical about going to a personal trainer, but something about Dan’s non-salesman approach and genuine interest in my overall health convinced me to give him a shot. The first session was used for a fitness test, body fat measurement, BMI ratio, overall assessment, and goal setting. He asked about my diet and made recommendations. He was very clear about what WE had to do to see results, and explained that getting a physical workout was only a part of what was needed. We went over diet and cardio, and even taught me how to read ingredient labels and what they mean. Understanding what my body needs along with when is very important. His workouts were NEVER (and still are not) the same. At times, I think he makes this stuff up as we go along! It makes me look forward to my sessions, and use some muscles I never knew I had. I never thought that a 60-minute workout would be so involved, extensive, exhausting, and also fun and rewarding.

I was looking for a personal trainer because I wasn't happy with the results I was getting on my own. I didn't want a huge body builder as a trainer. They look impressive but I thought it would be an intimidating experience. I wanted a trainer who was physically fit and could identify with my personal goals, which led me to Dan. He quickly figured me out and created a very intense workout program. Exactly what I wanted and needed. During those sessions, Dan constantly pushes you beyond your expectations. It's amazing what his workouts do for your body. He kept solid records of my improvements not only in weight loss but change in body fat percentage, weight and strength increases during the workout and my added mobility as well. His workout routines although intense were still fun and high spirited. Hire Dan and you WILL get results. Be prepared to work hard, be prepared to sweat, be prepared to meet your goals. All I can say is Thanks Dan. I feel great about the way I look.

Dan is the reason I continued with my program. Dan is very motivated and well-balanced in the area of fitness. He motivated me to push myself beyond my expectations. My initial one-month turned into six months after the results I saw under Dan's expert guidance. My experience was what I needed to start a stronger, leaner and healthier lifestyle.

I was not a big fan of working out and always had an excuse to why I could not make it to a gym. I decided to hire a personal trainer to give me a jump-start. Dan has been great. He makes each session enjoyable and adds a lot of variety. I know that each session will be challenging but I actually look forward to it. I have more energy, feel better, look better and my stress levels have went down.

Thank you for helping me reach my goals. I have used other trainers in the past and always seemed to hit a point where I was not seeing any new results. You make each session hard but I love to be challenged. You are by far the best trainer I have ever used. I sleep better, my energy level has really increased, and I'm overall a happier person.

Dan is fun, positive and encouraging; Dan is tough; but most of all, Dan is the consummate professional. I know if I was doing all of this on my own I would stop after half an hour but he keeps me going! I recommend Dan to anyone who is serious about making some health changes. He is concerned with you hitting your goals and provides expert instruction.

People have noticed the changes in my body and I get compliments daily. Dan is always on time and prepared for our sessions while providing proper professional instruction.
