The following are testimonials from actual clients of both Private Personal Training and Bootcamp classes. All are voluntary and none were paid for. I believe that referrals and staying true to my clients/ participants needs will only harbor good results and happy, healthy people.
You can't know what it is like until you try it. I couldn't do the deep knee bends(bad knee) in the warm ups when I started. I am 63 years old and thought I was fit. I joined the Stapleton fitness center, began classes with Paul and 23 pounds later I feel great. As Paul says, "the effort you put into your work out will give you back great rewards". It has for me. I look forward to Paul's encouragement and knowledge about a healthy lifestyle every class. Put bungee boot camp in our public schools and we would be the fittest nation in the world -- I have no doubt. Thank you Paul. Dave Siefkas
I first worked with Paul in a private personal training facility. With a rather cornucopia of medical issues, Paul sat down, learned of my history, then plotted a safe and effective course of action to help me out. As time progressed, and the weight kept coming off, I was amazed at how intense I could actually train, and what a great feeling it was to be healthy. Paul's patience and dedication to my 60 lb weight loss, and first 5K race was amazing. I even think he found as much joy as I did in my accomplishments. When I signed up for the Danskin Women's Tri-Athlon, he taught me bike maintenance, cycling / running technique, and was at the race at 5am to help me out, cheer me on, and celebrate my victory crossing the finish line with my family. He truly is in it for the health of others. Shelly
I had a brain trauma/ contusion about 3 years ago from falling off a horse with my helmet on. MRI was normal, but swelling was not identified, but was obviously present due to my lingering symptoms: Slower recall especially short term memory, forgetfulness, longer processing time for math, decreased balance, some moodiness or lack of mood. Slow progression to improvement. Yet, I can really tell the Bungee Bootcamp style class has promoted a lot of gains w/ coordination, balance, memory abilities, and focus.
Actually amazing the difference I experience in my head & body! Thank You for your efforts in getting me "back" so to speak. Judi
I'm a 51 year old women with aches and pains and an old set attitude of "I just can not do that because of an older body." I also felt uninspired and down on myself with hope of tomorrow being a new day. The new day always lasted about one half of a day or maybe one and one half days when really inspired. When I met Paul and started Bootcamp I gained self esteem and felt better overall. I now know it has changed my life and attitudes. I still struggle with weight but damn it is much less than before and I gain knowledge and practical application from Bootcamp. There is no judgment but honest inspiration and goals. Do not be afraid to try it. A bit of humor and workout changed my outlook. My new attitude is "I can try new things and the body is very capable". I have been working out one year and even in the winter I get out and snow shoe at Bootcamp. Angela E.
Paul Serafini was my personal trainer for six months while in Southborough MA. Paul created fun and challenging work-out sessions for me. He helped me to establish and meet several goals. He was always enthusiastic, encouraging and professional. Paul seemed to know just how far to push me to maximize my work-out. I learned much from Paul and I highly recommend him as a personal trainer. Kim B.
Please consider this letter an enthusiastic recommendation for Paul Serafini. We both trained with Paul for over a year in Southborough, and he made a big difference in the quality of our lives. We’re confident he will do the same for your clients.
We each had issues (injuries, lack of confidence, busy lives, etc.) that had, in the past, prevented us from reaching our fitness goals. Paul helped us break through and reach new levels. How? Paul exhibits a rare blend of knowledge, support, toughness when it’s needed, and an understanding of his individual clients -- with the end result being excellent health and new confidence for those he trains.
We are extremely loyal to Paul and hope to train with him in the future. And we know from talking with others that many of his clients feel this way! He will bring energy, professionalism, and a friendly demeanor to any business fortunate enough to hire him. Steve & Martha, Flatout Motorsports
When I began training with Paul Serafini, I considered it a last resort to getting the results that I was looking for. After countless gym memberships (that included limited personal training), it seemed that I would never be able to attain my goals. After about three months with Paul Serafini, I was pleasantly surprised to see a difference, not only in my appearance, but in my whole outlook on fitness training. Now, I look forward to workouts and feel motivated to reach the next level. With the help of my trainer, I was also able to adopt a healthier diet and monitor my eating habits. I thought that giving up my morning muffin or eating less of my favorite food (pasta) would be tough, but it was a gradual transition. Ultimately, it truly became a lifestyle change, and a lifestyle choice.
Others noticed and made mention of my new shape, without even knowing that I was training! Personally, it felt great to not have to worry about reaching the last hole on my belt buckle or squeezing into my favorite jeans. Getting dressed in the morning has never been better! Thanks for the confidence booster. Rita F.
After working with Paul for 6 months, my Orthopedic cleared me of all prior low back issues I was dealing with. His recommendation was to work with an experienced personal trainer for a minimum 6 months and if I saw no improvements then we would proceed with a Spinal Fusion of the Lumbar Vertebrae.
After 6 months of working with Paul 3-4 days a week, I was able to run the NECC 5K with my son, and help him raise 7K for the cause. Prior to meeting with Paul my avid running days had ceased, now I have my family and hobby back, and most of all enjoy my kids without being in pain, thanks. Ian.L.
