Hilary Peck, FL

Training at Bodies By Design has been a great pleasure. As a 17-year old, I use to dread the thought of working out with a personal trainer. I feared he/she would be strict and forceful. After over 1 year of personal training, Eric still pushes me, but always seems to include an element that keeps it fun and exciting.

I always enjoy myself, but I am still challenged with just the right intensity of every workout.
