Gina is a dynamic, personable, knowledgeable, motivating and beautiful force of nature. She has been training me for nearly two years now and my fifty-something body is thankful for the push, the tone and especially the energy that I get from working out consistently. Gina always keeps it interesting, is mindful of any sensitivities or injuries, and the hour flies by each and every time. She intuitively knows what I need - sometimes it’s a more challenging effort, sometimes we focus more on stretching and breathing. So thankful to have found her. - Judith P.

I'll never forget the summer before I went of to college for my undergraduate, I was 18 years old and had reached rock bottom with my weight. I walked into the gym weighing in at 200lbs and feeling ashamed. That first workout was the hardest. But I kept going. Gina trained me 3-4 times a week and even when I wanted to give up she pushed me. She taught me “pain with purpose.” Giving up would’ve been easy but in my case wasn’t an option because I wanted to change my life. In 5 years I’ve lost over 65lbs. This is what makes Gina such an amazing trainer. She takes the journey with you. Without Gina’s guidance I wouldn’t have been able to do it. She didn’t just help me lose weight, she taught me so much about myself. The workouts are never easy, I just got stronger. The journey isn’t over but knowing I have her by my side makes it all worth it. Gina, thank you for changing my life. I am forever grateful for you.  - Noy

I first met Gina as my personal trainer in 2013 and she is still my trainer today. At first I thought it would be hard for me to meet her at a gym for training because I’m very shy but Gina was very supportive and let me know it would be a welcoming environment. Gina’s workouts are diverse and challenging. Every session is different and I have learned new and creative ways to use equipment and perform exercises. I have always been into fitness, more so into hiking and working out on my own, but when I train with Gina I actually feel like I get a work out and I can really see my body change. Gina’s attitude is always positive and she makes you feel comfortable in the gym. I have never felt pressure from her to meet some expectation or stand on a scale, which is the type of person I need working with me. I alternate working day shifts and night shifts so my schedule is always changing but Gina always tries to fit me in. I have now known Gina for several years and over the years I have traveled for work for periods of time but when I get back I return to training with Gina.

Gina and I have a love-hate relationship. I love her but I hate to exercise. This year I turned 65. It is so important at any age to exercise but especially as we get older. Doing both cardio and strength training helps keep our bodies healthy and strong. I knew when I walked in the gym that I needed some training. I can honestly say, if it were not for Gina teaching me how to exercise correctly and use the equipment properly, I would not continue to go to the gym. She makes it easier for me to do my workout by encouraging me to push on. After just a few sessions with Gina, I noticed results in my muscle tone and energy level. My husband noticed the difference, too! We just vacationed in Hawaii and I felt so good about myself when wearing a bathing suit. Oh, yeah! Signing up with Gina was the best thing I have done for myself in a long time. I just knew I was too young to be frumpy! Thank you Gina for helping me to stay young. You're the best! Toni Tripp

 Gina is not only my personal trainer; she is friend and makes a difference in my life. Gina helped my sisters and I look and feel great. She is an inspiration reminding me “it takes patience and dedication to get to where you want and you will persevere." I feel better in every way possible: my mind, body and soul. Gina pushes me to my limits and now I see the results. I am a nurse and work long hours. Working out with Gina helps my mind stay strong and I do not feel tired in such a very stressful environment. If you work at it, you will reach your goal, just as I did. Thank you Gina!

My journey began just 5 weeks ago, and in that time frame the results I have seen is simply amazing.  With Gina’s guidance, consistent exercise and diet, I have begun to see a transformation that previously I would have thought were not possible.  The difference is the result of not just hard work, but the motivation and direction I have received from Gina.  Changing how I exercise and the frequency has been key, with personalized training tailored to my goals, and advice that can only come from someone with years of experience and results oriented training.  Most of all Gina cares about helping me meet my goals, and has helped me challenge myself to levels that before was not possible. I look forward to the continued journey, and setting and reaching new goals.  Thanks Gina! - Dean

Gina is an excellent trainer; she is been working out with my husband Abe, who is 95 years of age since one year ago and the change physical  and emotional of my husband is amazing. I recommend Gina to anybody that want to improve him or herself. Gina is enthusiastic and a pleasure to work out with her. We highly recommend Gina.  - Mr. and Mrs Abe Brownstein

 

I am so grateful to have Gina in my life. She not only is my trainer, but one of my best friends. She is the reason I am always at the gym. She motivates me to challenge myself and work hard. I am now more confident about my body and self. Thank you Gina for helping me look beautiful the day of my wedding -- if you saw the before and after pictures you would also say that miracles do happen. Thanks again and love you!!!!!!!

Working with Gina really motivates you to stay with your training, even when you feel overwhelmed. I love that I see great results without being painfully sore. She uses a great variety of exercises and knows how to make adjustments to your needs. Gina will definitely make a difference in your life.

I welcome the opportunity to recommend Gina W'erdi to anyone who wants or needs a personal trainer. I have had personal trainers in the past who do not even come close to the caliber of Gina in knowledge, ability, caring and work ethic. She knows what she is doing and customizes the workout routines for individuals of different abilities and needs, as well as from day to day depending on their energy level. Gina gets results! She knows  how to motivate and really cares. I have seen her advise people who are not her clients so that they do not hurt themselves. After working with her for the last few months, I have lost weight, taken off inches and am developing muscle definition. People tell me I look years younger. I feel the best I have in years - and that is saying something since I started with Gina after being diagnosed with diabetes.  Money spent of training with Gina is money well spent!

If you work at it, you will reach your goal, just as I did. Thank you Gina! Norma I am in my late sixties and was quite out of shape. I had so little stamina that I tired quickly when doing anything physical, even walking. After working out with Gina my over all strength and endurance increased so much. I can now lift my own grocery bags in the car and don’t need help; I walk and don’t feel exhausted; my energy level is up and I’m sleeping better. Gina is a terrific trainer, very knowledgeable regarding physical training and extremely patient.  I highly recommend her for any age. No matter how old you are or what condition you are in…shewill make you better!
Mary Anne 

 I am 31 years old and have been working out for the last nine years. I've had my ups and down in motivation, as well as fitness level, over the years. Gina is the sixth trainer I've worked with, and even after the first session,  I knew I have finally found my trainer.As an R.N., it can be difficult to make fitness fit into my schedule, but with Gina I look forward and make time for my sessions. She is the most creative, and definitely the most genuinely enthusiastic trainer, I've worked with. Every session we have, I know she really cares how well I perform each rep and she create routines specific to my goals and my limitations. Aside from being a great personal trainer, she's a great person. As soon as I met her, she felt like a friend.

Gina is an inspiring trainer.  For someone like me who hates to exercise, she manages to make it varied and interesting.  She is very encouraging while pushing me to do a little more, but never too far.  Thanks Gina for keeping me at it.

 Gina has been my personal trainer for three years. She helped me build up stamina and gain more energy. She challenges me when we workout and I have seen major results. I dropped two jean sizes, I got my curves, and my arms and legs are toner than before. I recommend Gina W'erdi because she helps you get results and build stamina faster than other personal trainers.

Gina De Luca

My name is Rita and I am a 40-year old single mother who was overworked, stressed, and rapidly gaining weight. I never had time to workout or eat properly. I weighed almost 300 pounds and realized it was finally time to do something. I started going to the gym and working out on the treadmill for an hour a day. The weight dropped, but my body was not toned. One day at the gym, I met Gina and decided I would try a personal trainer. Within two months, I noticed a HUGE difference in the appearance of my body. I started getting compliments from family and even strangers. This is the body that I was looking for! I have muscles I never knew existed. Gina makes sure that you are doing the workout correctly, and motivates you to keep going, no shortcuts allowed. I enjoy the workouts, feel great, have lots of energy, and can do activities that I used to only be able to do as a teenager. The results were so impressive that my Mom started working out with Gina! 

Rita

My name is Violette and I started working out with Gina after seeing my daughter Rita’s results. I never worked out in my life, and I was not an athletic type of person. Gina personalized the workout plan and I am noticing a big difference. My entire life style has changed. I feel very confident now, and can wear sexy clothes that show off my muscles. There is no way that I could have done this on my own. She always checks up and makes sure that I am doing my cardio and eating well. She is very professional and really cares about her clients. I am very happy that I have Gina as my personal trainer.
Violette

Gina Werdi has supervised my twice-weekly workouts for the past 5 years. I work with her on general strength training and cardiovascular fitness. As a veteran trainer, Gina is very knowledgeable in directing both floor exercises, as well as supervised use of exercise equipment. She is a great motivator, has a sense of humor, as well as a high degree of professionalism. I am highly satisfied with Gina's training, without which, I would likely be experiencing middle-age muscle and/or bone problems. I recommend her highly!!
