Exercise is now a part of my life
Exercise was a cuss word to me before my weight loss surgery. What attracted me to Phoenix Fitness is the private gym setting. I know I wouldn't be judged or intimidated. This along with Geof's encouragement and knowledge has made exercise a non-negotiable part of my life and it's paid off in more ways than I could have imagined.

I didn't even know where to start
I knew that part of my weight loss success was going to be working out, but I didn't even know where to start. I was referred to Phoenix Fitness because the specialized in bariatric surgery personal training. Unfortunately this happened just as COVID hit. Geof worked with me with his Online training app and Zoom calls. After a few months I felt more confident and strong. 
As soon as Phoenix Fitness re-opened I started splitting my workouts between home and the gym.

meet Our founder Geof
Geof Shuford - founder of Phoenix Fitness
In the 10+ years of working with bariatrc surgery clients one question that arises most often after surgery is "Now What?" What do you need to do to lose the weight you want to lose. What do you need to do to build a healthy and strong body. What do you need to do to build solid new habits and remove old disfunctional habits so you can maintain this new, healthier life? 

Answering these "Now What" questions is the foundation of Phoenix Fitness.  We do this by  integrating 3 three main pillars of a healthy life (exercise, nutrition and mindset) into all parts of our training. It's by working within this framework which creates the success stories we've seen at Phoenix Fitness. 

As a certified Personal trainer with over 10 years of experience as well as a certified bariatric mindset coach I know what it takes to get you to your goals.

My team and I work with you to create the fitter, healthier version of you, so you can finally get the most out of life! It's how we help you find your answer to the question "Now What?"
