When I was diagnosed with lumbar facet joint arthritis, I feared that my days of working out were over. But my trainer at We-Fit developed a rehabilitative program for me, including exercises to stabilize my core and strengthen my spinal region, which complemented my prescribed physical therapy. As a result, I was able to overcome the pain I was experiencing and recover full functionality in far less time than my physician had expected. I attribute this speedy recovery primarily to my training at We-Fit.

Ediz and the Trainer Team at We-Fit made the difference in my post-rehab work outs. I injured my shoulder about a year before I found We-Fit. I had gone through physical therapy and was able to regain most function but I had doubts about ever regaining full function and being pain free. After just a few work outs with Ediz, I knew I was on the road to full recovery. Not only have I regained full movement and function of my shoulder, I am now in better physical shape and have more endurance than ever. Having the support of knowledgeable personal trainers makes the difference. We-Fit is definitely worth the investment!

I have been training here for over 3 years. When I arrived, due to a series of major life changes, I had not done anything that could be called exercise for a few years. Prior to that I had always been very active, enjoying a number of sports and running in 10ks. That had taken its toll on my body so in addition to being out of shape, I arrived with numerous old injuries and health issues. I was also at the highest weight I had ever been at in my life. I was a mess both physically and mentally. And I knew I wouldn't do anything about it myself. I needed a coach but I sure didn't want to take my aging, lumpy self to one of those big gyms. Finding a place where I felt I fit in was what I needed if it was going to work.

Ediz has worked with me at my pace, pushing me when necessary, and backing off when my old injuries flared up. I would have stopped as soon as that happened if I had been trying to do it on my own. Steadily we have transformed me back into a person who is much healthier, doesn't hurt all the time, and along the way dropped all that extra weight. Although no one would have said. "Boy you're a mess." I have heard a lot of compliments about how different I look now and how I have kept the weight off. My favorite was from a neighbor who told me I looked taller and more confident, and I do.

For me, working out on my own just doesn't work. I have tried it and I find a million excuses to do it later – tomorrow or whenever. And, I don't have the knowledge of what to do when one part of my body needs a rest. I would either make it worse or quit altogether. Ediz has come up with a variety of ways I can continue to work out and not further injure myself. This is one so-called luxury I haven't stopped due to the economy. This is not a luxury, it's an investment in me.

The best thing that I can say about my trainer, Ediz Salazar, the owner of WE-FIT, is that after 4 years of training with him everything about me is better! I am 10 pounds lighter, 2 dress sizes smaller, enjoy better health and stamina, as well as great balance and strength – which has improved my ability to ride my horse and progress in my chosen sport, dressage. I am still motivated and eager to work out with Ediz, which is incredible since I have joined and quit many gyms and exercises groups in the past!
I feel much younger than my age, and am told that I look at least 5-8 years younger than my actual age of 59. My general health (no medication) and well-being (no aches and pains) I attribute to the work-outs that Ediz has designed especially for me. They say that you cannot buy good health, but I think that you can make a pretty good down payment on it at WE-FIT!

My name is Jean Sanford and I am 67 years old. Fifteen months ago, I had one of my knees replaced and then three months later I has the other replaced. After completing the in-home and out-patient physical therapy prescribed by my surgeon, I started working with Ediz at WE-FIT twice a week for
30-minute periods of time. I plan to continue my bi-weekly workouts with Ediz as they have proven to be very beneficial to my renewed lifestyle.

I am thrilled to be getting excellent one-on-one guidance in obtaining my personal fitness goals at
WE-FIT. I've had Rheumatoid Arthritis for over 50 years and as a result have had my hips and knees replaced, my ankles fused, and several foot surgeries. Ever since I can remember, I've walked with a limp, but for the last 12 years I've needed crutches as well. Although exercising to maintain my range of motion has always been a big part of my life, it's not enough. I need to gain strength without further damaging my joints. Over the past five months, Ediz has devised numerous safe and challenging ways for me to do this. I am always amazed at how creative and perceptive he is. He not only listens to my concerns, but can usually tell if I'm having a bad day and will adjust accordingly. His encouragement and supervision allows me to try things I never thought I could do. At the end of our half-hour morning sessions I am usually sweating and panting, but I leave energized to face the day ahead.

My progress has been slow and steady. It's really nice to receive compliments from my husband about my skinny arms filling out a bit. I still need my crutches, but it is so exciting to be able to get up out of most chairs and sofas without assistance for the first time in ages! I highly recommend the trainers at WE-FIT for anyone who wants to improve their physical fitness, especially to those with any sort of joint problems.
