    2025: Recovery: Feel better/Move better!

    Saying "no" to more of anything is not something that our culture has a strong track record of doing. Supersize the meal? Sure! Make the workouts harder? Of course! Go faster? Yes! But there is one area that for most of our clients oftentimes say "no" to even if they have the best of intentions: Recovery! Recovery can mean many different things for many different people, but with fitness and health I would narrow it down to a big three of what you can do to help: Sleep/Stress/Stretch (in that order!) Being able to add more recovery time into your daily and weekly routine is no easy task, but one that often gets skipped because we are all busy with life. It's also more common and ....

PT In The D Google five star review - Amy L

I've been doing virtual group workouts with Robert since 2020. It's been one of the few consistent forms of exercise I've been able to keep up throughout various ups and downs of the last few years. Robert has been an amazing trainer, tailoring my workouts to respond to various phases--injuries, pregnancy/postpartum, etc. I've also really appreciated the fun challenges PT in the D offers. They help provide structure, hold me accountable and create community. Highest recommendation for Robert and PT in the D!

I've been a client of Robert's since 2017 and since 2020, we've been doing largely virtual workouts. There's such a nuance to the workouts that Robert puts together for me - it not only increases my strength, but also helps me maintain movement, flexibility and balance. He really meets you where you are, and cares about his clients true well-being. Robert also creates a community with outings and fun challenges for his clients. Check out PT in the D - you won't regret it!
PT In The D Google five star review - Jen Y

Love working out with Robert at PT in the D. I’ve been working out with him over a year now and feel stronger and better physically. He makes the workouts interesting and challenging and pushes me even when I don’t necessarily want him to. But also accommodates and adjusts when things don’t feel right. It’s a comfortable non-intimidating space to better your physical health! Would highly recommend for any fitness level
