Nate is an amazing personal trainer! He’s knowledgeable, professional, and really pays attention to form and progress.

I started weight training with Kathy this year, she has been the best trainer I have ever had (50 years). She is extremely knowledgeable and protects the safety of her clients. Safety is a primary concern for her, while meeting and exceeding your fitness ceiling. She embraces a positive attitude which undoubtedly helps her clients not only reach their goals but surpass them. Kathy pushes you to the max in order to achieve the goals that YOU have set for your desired personal fitness outcomes. I would highly recommend Kathy for all levels of clients, beginners-advanced.

I've been going to Good Time Fitness since the summer of 2022 when I was just getting back into exercise after having a baby. It's a hidden gem for anyone looking for a top-notch gym experience. The facility is small but well-equipped, offering a cozy environment that's not overcrowded, thanks to the small group session structure. This creates a more personalized experience, and you get an individualized program and instruction during your workouts. As a woman, I never felt comfortable training at a regular gym without a trainer and I didn't know what kind of program I should do. Good Time Fitness is a very positive environment and now I can also go into a regular gym and I have more confidence using weights on my own. If you're looking for a great trainer, I highly recommend Coach Drake. I've worked with a lot of trainers over the years, and Drake is definitely a standout. He's extremely attentive to proper form so that you can avoid injury and maximize results. He places a strong emphasis on mobility and flexibility, which has been helpful for me being a desk-worker. Now that I'm pregnant, I appreciate the strength I've gained and the focus on mobility to help my body as it's going through this big change. Drake is fantastic at customizing programs and accommodating any injuries or limitations.

I worked with Drake to train my strength for about half year. He is a fantastic trainer. I improved my strength from deadlifting my body weight to almost 2x my body weight. I didn’t imagine I now can do 12 or more pull up with weight! I also gained knowledge and experience on how to eat, train, and sleep well to form a better lifestyle. He is gentle but also push me to hit a target that I can gain the most out of the training time. I like how he can communicate well and fit my goal, that is to add some training to help me climb better. I began with a solid V1 climber but ended up a solid V3 climber. Drake also thinks about what to chat with me so I don’t feel lonely during training. Overall, highly recommended Drake as trainer for his professionalism and kindness. Thanks Drake!

Both my wife and I have been training with Drake at Good Time Fitness for five months now, and we truly couldn't be happier. We have worked with other trainers in the past, but none compare to the level of expertise and care Drake provides. Our class consists of five people (the maximum size), and he customizes each workout to accommodate individual body types and prior injuries. Drake is extremely knowledgeable about the body and its mechanics--muscles, fascia, ligaments, and more. To us, he is not just a trainer; he could easily pass for a physical therapist. His deep understanding of different body issues has helped us stay strong and avoid injuries, which is especially important as we remain active into our seventies. As an added bonus, Drake is warm, personable, and genuinely invested in keeping his clients healthy, strong, and injury-free. We highly recommend Drake as a trainer and hope to continue training with him at Good Time Fitness for many years to come. Good Time Fitness has a great atmosphere, an excellent range of equipment, and a very clean, well-maintained facility. It's a welcoming and motivating place to train, and it complements Drake's training style perfectly.
