Real People.
Real Results.
Whether it’s running their first marathon, gaining strength and confidence, losing stubborn fat, or finally breaking through years of frustration—these are the real stories of Liberty Fitness clients who showed up, put in the work, and transformed their lives.
Shana, 26
Shana lost 15 pounds, gained muscle, and completed her first marathon.
Shana took on our hybrid program like a pro: staying dialled in with nutrition, structure, and consistency across disciplines. In May of 2025, Shana completed her first marathon, which was a massive checkpoint. Shana continues to work with us to push for more gains and improved race times.
Client Testimonial:
“I’ve accomplished goals I honestly didn’t think were possible before working with Zac. In just a few months, I’ve lost 15 pounds and gained so much more confidence—not just in my body, but in myself. He’s incredibly responsive and always willing to answer questions, tweak workouts, and offer helpful feedback.
What really sets him apart, though, is that he goes beyond just physical training. He’s helped me develop positive self-talk and believe in myself, even if it’s just through subtle encouragement or the way he frames progress. It’s about mental fortitude as much as physical strength, and he gets that. More than just a personal trainer—he’s truly helped me change the way I see myself, inside and out. Highly recommend!”
Key Takeaways from Shana’s Journey
Hybrid training works: You can build endurance and sculpt your physique at the same time—with the right structure.
Consistency is the real game-changer: Showing up with intention over time led to her dropping 15 lbs and crossing the marathon finish line.
Mindset is everything: Shana’s transformation wasn’t just physical—it was about confidence, self-belief, and breaking mental barriers.
Accountability accelerates results: Regular feedback, responsive coaching, and tailored adjustments kept her progressing week after week.
Congratulations, Shana!
Michael, 26
In under a year, Mike lost over 100 pounds, built muscle, and crushed his first 5K race in under 30 minutes.
I promised Mike a progressive, personalized plan that would deliver results and build a sustainable lifestyle he could maintain long-term.
Fast forward 10 months:
✅ Mike has become a meal prep master
✅ Hits his daily macros and calorie targets
✅ Moves every single day
And above all — he’s been extremely consistent. That’s the secret sauce.
Mike has now lost over 100 pounds since we started working together — and just crushed his first 5K race with a time of 29:54.
What once felt impossible is now just part of the routine. What’s next? With the confidence and momentum he’s built, anything he sets his mind to.
Congrats, Mike — proud of you. Here’s to more progress ahead! 💪
Client Testimonial:
“I’ve been training with Zac for the past ten months, and I can’t recommend him and his personal training services enough. I’ve lost 105 pounds, and I’ve never been healthier or fitter in my life!
The training programs are personalized, flexible, and built to help you achieve your fitness goals. If you’ve ever thought about personal training, I definitely recommend reaching out to Zac. You won’t regret it!”
Key Takeaways from Mike’s Journey
Small, consistent actions = massive results: Daily movement, meal prep, and hitting targets became second nature—and led to 100 lbs lost.
Systems over willpower: A personalized plan made progress feel manageable, not overwhelming.
Milestones matter: Crushing his first 5K in under 30 minutes wasn’t just a win on paper—it proved how far he’s come.
Coaching is more than workouts: Accountability, structure, and belief made the difference when motivation dipped.
Lifestyle shift, not a quick fix: Mike didn’t just lose weight—he built a routine he can maintain for life.

Nick, 26
Nick Bulked During Ironman Prep and Got Shredded by Race Day
Before
After
When Nick joined Liberty Fitness in October, he was already an elite-level triathlete — but he had a new goal in mind: build lean muscle without sacrificing endurance. With his Ironman training schedule regularly burning thousands of calories per day, traditional bulking methods weren’t going to cut it.
We got to work building a custom nutrition system tailored specifically for high-output athletes. Nick tracked his daily calorie burn from swimming, biking, and running — and we adjusted his intake to ensure he consistently remained in a strategic surplus. This approach allowed him to add quality lean tissue while still crushing his training blocks.
By February, Nick had packed on muscle, optimized his performance, and entered a cut phase to sharpen things up. The result? A shredded, athletic physique that turned heads and gave him the confidence to flaunt his hard work at every race he entered.
Nick’s journey is a prime example of how elite endurance athletes can build strength and muscle — without compromising performance — with the right system and coaching in place.
Client Testimonial:
I’ve been training at Liberty Fitness for the past year with Zac, and I couldn’t recommend it more. Zac is not only an incredible trainer—he leads by example, practices what he preaches, and brings a level of dedication and knowledge that’s hard to find. He knows his stuff. If you’re looking to push your limits and grow stronger, physically and mentally Liberty Fitness is it.

Key Takeaways from Jesse’s Journey
Beginner to Built — No Experience Needed
Jesse started with zero gym experience, proving that anyone can transform with the right structure and support.Sustainable Bulk, Personalized Cut
We used a modest winter bulk to build muscle gradually, then cut with intention using his favorite cardio method: trail running.It’s Not Just the Scale
Jesse’s before and after photos show only a few pounds of difference, but the change in muscle definition, posture, and overall physique is dramatic — because body composition > body weight.Consistency Over Perfection
This transformation wasn’t extreme — it was built through steady effort, dialed-in habits, and a smart strategy that fit Jesse’s lifestyle.
When Jesse joined Liberty Fitness in November, he had zero gym experience — but a clear goal: to build muscle and lean out in time for summer.
We started with a structured winter bulk, focusing on foundational movements, progressive overload, and building confidence under the bar. As spring approached, Jesse entered a cut phase — but instead of dreading cardio, we leaned into what he loved most: trail running. Combined with a calibrated calorie deficit, Jesse shredded down while still enjoying the process.
Through hard work, consistency, and a love for the outdoors, Jesse achieved the physique he set out for — proving that with the right system, even beginners can crush elite-level results.
