I am a 78 year old male and a retired university professor. A few years after retirement I realized that I was way-out of shape and overweight. I went to a local training facility and they suggested that I work out with their new trainer named Heidi. The first few times I worked out with Heidi were very shocking to me. I had trouble getting down to and back up from the floor. I could do about 3 sit-ups and, along with other issues, realized I was a physical wreck and way out of shape (I was an athlete when a teenager).

Heidi was very patient with me and we met biweekly for a several months. Because of her formal education and previous experience she knew what it would take to get me back to decent shape. After a year or two with Heidi the training facility got flooded and had to close. Heidi agreed to keep working with me and came to my house to train me. Then Covid hit and she still didn’t give up and we began to train over Zoom. After several years of training with Heidi I am in much better shape. It is not an over statement to say that Heidi has kept me healthy (and probably alive) for much longer than I would have without her. As I have aged she has helped me to diagnose issues like joint pain and she has worked with me to rehabilitate some damage. I can now do three sets of 15 sit-ups and many other exercises that I couldn’t do before I started
working with this excellent personal trainer.

She is very professional yet also has a pleasing personality and made getting back in shape fun and rewarding. Heidi is encouraging and motivating with me and I have heard she is also that way with her other clients. I would highly recommend Heidi Briquelet as a personal or a group physical trainer.
