Caitlin

“I’ve lost over 20 pounds and several inches since starting. After years of trying random workout programs and diets, this is the first time I’ve had sustained success. Rachel will meet you where you are, help you set reasonable plans, build on what works and quickly move on from what doesn’t. I feel mentally and physically stronger, healthier, and more balanced.”

Nicole

“After a year of training and nutrition coaching, I have lost 20 pounds and feel better than ever. I am stronger both physically and mentally and feel I have found a sustainable approach to my overall wellness. While my physical appearance was important to me, Rachel and I really worked on my mindset which was what was actually holding me back. The biggest shift in my mindset since working with Rachel is my confidence and perseverance. Not every day is perfect. Not every meal is perfect (nor should it be!). Rachel has given me the tools to be ok with imperfection.”

Jess

“Rachel is the best! Extremely knowledgeable and a genuinely nice person. I have been working with her 1:1 (virtually) and her thoughtful approach to workout planning and nutrition advice has helped me to not only build muscle, but also have more flexibility/freedom with my nutrition and not get caught in the cycle of yo-yo dieting, which I have struggled with in the past.”

Wendy

“I have been working with Rachel for only a couple of months but she has been incredibly helpful and motivating for me. I have lost almost 10 pounds; but more importantly, I have changed the way I eat, and it hasn’t been difficult. She has impressed upon me the need to do more weight bearing exercises but also explains WHY these exercises are more helpful, especially for women in their 50’s like me. As someone who has tried literally every diet in the books, Rachel really does provide a sustainable, ongoing program that is easy to follow.

Courtney

“Now that I’m older, what used to work in the past for me doesn’t anymore, and changing my mindset was so important. I love being able to make healthy choices without having to obsessively count every single calorie as that’s not sustainable for every day life. And now that my ACL/knee is healing nicely, the workout plans we’ve been focusing on for me have been progressively improving. I feel myself getting stronger, have lost inches of my waist and hips (which have always been a problem area for weight gain), my clothes fit better, and really feel the momentum picking up.

Victoria

“Rachel is incredible! In just a few months, she helped me drop 20 pounds through small changes. She gives very achievable tactical advice and tailors her recommendations to your specific lifestyle. The zoom meetings helped keep me accountable – highly recommend this program for busy professionals who are struggling to find time to prioritize their health. Rachel really gave me the tools necessary to get back on track in a way that I know will be sustainable because there are no ‘extremes’. 10 / 10, if you are on the fence about signing up- just go for it.”

Bailey

Rachel is truly the best. I have been working with her for over 3 months and have learned so much more than I thought possible and have seen impressive results across the board! She is incredibly knowledgeable and brings a flexible approach to ensure she matches your lifestyle and goals.

Gabriella

“On our first call, I told Rachel that one of my main challenges has been that I am a textbook “binge” dieter and exerciser. Meaning, I would get on a scale, see I’ve gained weight, make a plan to work out/eat less, quickly lose a few pounds, then go right back to the unhealthy habits that initially led me to my weight gain. She knew from the start that a more holistic approach to this next fitness journey was going to be key. Rachel’s style of coaching has helped me change my mindset from it’s “all or nothing” to being proud of every little positive decision I make as I continue to build a better relationship with food/exercise. Ultimately, this mindset change, along with the workouts that she provides and better eating (and drinking) advice has helped me lose weight, look forward to working out more, and overeat less. Happy with my progress and would recommend Rachel’s program for anyone looking for longer-term, sustainable food/exercise habits.”

Annabel

“She truly looks at the whole picture of your lifestyle and goals and tailors your plan to these specific anchors. She was so focused on helping me achieve my goals (prepping for my wedding and then a marathon) in a healthy way. She doesn’t support crash diets and workouts that totally deplete your body. She supports a healthy lifestyle, kept me accountable, and helped me with key ‘adulting’ skills.”

“I started working with Rachel after struggling with my weight for many years. I was very frustrated at that point, because, being a reasonably disciplined person and having read lots of books on the subject, I felt that I was doing everything right: eating very healthy and exercising 2-3 hours a day, but still my weight was only piling on. I decided to give it a try as a last resort, and was pleasantly surprised that the whole thing could be done remotely, without going to the gym, just working with what I have at home. I have zoom calls with Rachel twice a month, she put together a training program for me, and she really helped me sort out my nutrition, so that the weight does come off at a good pace but I don’t feel very hungry or suffering. Another thing that I really like is that the training program and the nutrition can be fine tuned around my needs and health issues. All in all I couldn’t be happier with my progress so far in terms of weight loss and improvements in fitness, which are way beyond what I expected. Rachel has been wonderfully supportive throughout the whole process, she is always there for me whenever any issues or life situations arise, and promptly answers whatever questions I may have. I didn’t expect it but I really enjoy doing the workouts she designed for me. What’s even more surprising for me is that I end up spending much less time and effort on exercising than I did before, with MUCH better results.” – Julia C.

“Working with Rachel has been one of the best investments I’ve made in my health and fitness this year! She helped me achieve race results I never thought possible while also reaching my body composition goals in a way that felt sustainable and realistic. Her workout programming is so creative, and I love that she tailors them around the types of activities I enjoy most. Rachel’s approach to nutrition also sets her apart; she helped me fine tune what I was already doing, and made sure I understood why those changes would better support my training and goals. I’ve learned a lot and enjoyed the process! Cannot recommend working with her enough!” – Claire S.

“Six months ago I sought Rachel’s personal training services and since then i’ve lost 20lbs of fat and gained 4lbs of muscle. I’m wearing my old jeans, the scale shows numbers I haven’t seen for years, and I’m feeling strong in the gym. Based on my goals, Rachel curated a nutrition and exercise plan that helped me with body recomposition, how to fuel myself properly, and introduced this newbie to legitimate strength training! She is knowledgeable, compassionate, offers guidance on an individual basis, and incorporates technology for accountability. I highly recommend partnering with her if you want to experience positive impacts on your health and overall wellbeing!” – Danika M.

“Rachel is great, and I think of her more as a coach than just a trainer. I found her when I was feeling like I could no longer lose weight, but she helped make me a completely personalized plan, helping me figure out how to meet both nutrition and fitness goals in a way that actually feels less strict and restrictive than what I was trying before. She’s also there to cheer you on, and puts together great workouts that I enjoy doing!” – Eileen M.

“Rachel is great! She is extremely knowledgeable, understanding, and positive. She helped me reach my goals and I’ve learned a lot from her about nutrition and exercise. She was willing to do deep dives with me about any topic I brought up, which is great for someone like me with lots of questions. She also has lots of little tips that can really make a difference for staying on track through all the non-routine things that come up like travel and work meals. All in all, I had a great experience with Rachel.” – Karen L.

“I was looking for somewhere that I could get training and nutrition instruction in one place. Rachel’s service is easy to use, it’s gotten me stronger than I’ve ever been in a shorter amount of time than I expected, and the weight loss goals I had were achieved in the time frame that she promised during our conversations. The other great thing about this service is the access to Rachel to ask questions or troubleshoot when needed. She is prompt and the answers are well thought out and useful. I would recommend this service to anyone who is serious about improving their fitness, nutrition, and general health.” – Jonathan H.

“Definitely recommend Rachel to help guide you through your health journey. It’s been less than two months and I’m already seeing good changes in my waistline and how I feel about myself. Before I felt like I was working hard with little results, with just a few tweaks, I’ve been able to make that hard work more productive. With the ease of everything being online and through an app it’s easier to commit to. Rachel is highly knowledgeable and personable. There’s no judgement, only support. If you’re on the fence like I was just do it. You won’t regret it!” – Melissa R.

I reached out to Rachel after my running friend recommended her to me. I consider myself to be a healthy eater and incorporate exercise regularly, but my post-menopausal weight gain had other ideas. I could not figure it out! Enter Rachel. I wanted to lose weight while training for a marathon, and her approach to diet, exercise, and marathon training (in the Florida summer heat!) was completely doable. She is brilliant at customizing every aspect of fitness and nutrition to your needs and abilities, while giving encouragement and some fun meals to try. I love that the program is online, and Rachel can see (and adjust) everything from my meals, to my running distance and heart rate. Who knew that my fear of getting on the scale would result in a positive self-image with the measuring tape?” – Laurel P.

I’ve been training with Rachel for a few months now, and I can’t recommend her highly enough! Every workout is thoughtfully designed & time-efficient. What sets Rachel apart is her holistic approach to fitness. In addition to the customized workouts, she provides valuable nutrition insight which has helped me take my fitness to the next level. Her guidance is practical, informed, and easy to incorporate into everyday life. If you’re looking for a trainer who maximizes your time, keeps things motivating, and supports your goals both in and out of the gym, Rachel is the one to go to. She’s terrific.” – Mary S.

“Rachel is incredible! She helped me get on track with a highly personalized plan for my situation (age, work, frequent travel, family) and helped me to adapt it to my changing schedule. I’m now exercising consistently again and feel fantastic. More importantly, I’m equipped with tools and a mindset to live a fit lifestyle going forward. Highly recommend Rachel to anyone who has a busy lifestyle and needs the structured, expert support! I’d give 10 stars if I could!” – Lynn S.

“I cannot recommend Rachel Trotta highly enough! Her personalized approach and attention to detail are truly unmatched. From the very first consultation, it was clear that she was fully invested in helping me achieve my goals. My workout plan is consistently tailored to my fitness level, preferences, and lifestyle. I’ve seen consistent progress, and not just physically—I feel stronger, more energized, and more confident overall. What really sets Rachel apart is her ongoing support and adaptability. She is available regularly to tweak my plan based on my upcoming schedule and how I’m doing. She has provided encouragement and accountability every step of the way. Choosing to work with Rachel has been the best investment I’ve made in my health and fitness journey!” – Chelsea M.

“Rachel totally changed the game for me! I had been trying to lose weight for over a year and a half with no results, and finally decided I needed help. I’ve been working with Rachel for 4 months and have lost 20 pounds, and feel great. She has helped me make small changes in my diet and routines, strategize for big life events and holidays, and create systems that keep me on track and make weight loss feel really manageable. Her approach completely adapts to your lifestyle, for example I don’t have access to a gym, so she formed a workout plan that I could do completely with just minimal equipment at home. I have really changed my perspective on health and goal setting, and after a long time of feeling like I’d never be able to make progress, Rachel helped me make it happen!” – Bridget O.

“I’ve worked with Rachel for years and have recommended her to people all over the country. Through all of craziness that happens in life she always finds a way to adapt workouts, develop diet strategies, and balance enjoying life (vacations, holidays, events) and being healthy along the way. Rachel doesn’t just develop diets and workouts but adapts an approach to who you are and the lifestyle you live to make it a more sustainable solution.” – Kevin M.

“For 6 months, I have been earnestly following Rachel’s well-informed, science-based guidance. I have decreased my body fat by 3%, lost an inch on hips and waist, and dropped a dress size, all while increasing my calories! And excitedly, I have achieved my first unassisted pull-up as a 51 year old! Next up, a pistol squat!” – Erin H.

“I have been working with Rachel for over a month! I am a 46 year old mom of three who has tried every diet. Rachel has been amazing. She brought me back to the basics of eating and not binge/ starve myself dieting. She also has helped me not to feel guilty about eating carbs (which is not a bad word) and also made me realize I don’t have to cook a separate meal for me at dinner time. I can eat what I cook for my family too. Rachel is so easy to talk to and if I have any questions during the week, I can easily messenger her and she gets back to me right away. I highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking to get their eating under control and tired of the main stream dieting!” – Chara B.
