Khazen AthletiKare--Testimonials

Testimonials

Hey Parents with Teenage Athletes...

We are thrilled with the progress that our daughters made under Lori’s direction. My husband and I looked at several different athletic training programs, but the decision to use Lori’s services came easy after reviewing her extensive resume of achievements as a female athlete, as well as her straightforward approach to injury prevention and improved fitness. (No bells and whistles here! This is honest fitness and injury prevention.) Lori has not disappointed us: our daughters have learned to move in a quicker, safer, smarter way on the soccer field. What more could we ask for in a trainer? I highly recommend Khazen AthletiKare for any athlete who is serious about being challenged and better prepared for his/her season.

Hey Athletes Seeking Post-Rehab Services...

I am a fifty three year old man who can say without hesitation that without Lori Khazen, I would not be enjoying the quality of life I currently have. Let me explain… A little over two years ago, I severely injured my back. The injury was such that it pinched a number of the nerves in my left leg causing the muscles in that leg to atrophy with a resulting loss of muscle tone and strength. Those problems in and of themselves would have been bad enough, however the loss of strength made the pursuit of two of my passions (martial arts and golf) impossible. The rehabilitation process prescribed by my Doctor was functional, but it was not allowing me to regain the strength I needed to return to the sports I loved. Fortunately for me, during my rehabilitation, I encountered Lori. During my rehabilitation, Lori was compassionate, yet demanding. Lori made sure that the exercises I was given were done properly explaining that bad form did little to help the process. While Lori was adamant about using the correct form in my exercises, she always understood the physical limitations my injury presented and helped me work within them. After my prescribed therapy ended, I sought Lori to help me continue on my road to recovery. At the first private session with Lori, she asked me what I hoped to accomplish and what my fitness goals were. Lori then proceeded to develop different programs to aid in areas such as balance, strength and endurance; all of which I figured were gone because of my injury. As a result of Lori’s programs, supervision and encouragement I am happy to say that not only have I returned to the sports I enjoyed before the injury, I have never felt better physically than I do now! I would recommend Lori to anyone (regardless of age) who has a desire to feel better both physically and mentally, and who wants to work with a highly competent, caring person!

Hey Exercise Junkies...

Boredom with my normal running/spinning/weight-lifting routine led me to consider hiring a personal trainer. Although I felt somewhat “fit”, I decided I needed someone to push me to another level. After training with Lori Khazen the last month and a half, I realize I made the right decision. Lori, besides being a great motivator, helped me incorporate things into my workouts I hadn’t considered before; that is, exercises for strength, flexibility and balance. Concentrating on these three areas has really made a difference in my conditioning. Lori is also excellent at explaining the mechanics and physiology behind all the exercises we do which has really helped focus me in my workouts. The workouts have been tailored to meet my specific fitness level while also pushing me to do more each time. Each training session, whether in the gym or at the track, has been challenging and rewarding. Lori was just what I needed!

Hey Golfers...

If you are an avid golfer like I am, you have probably tried everything from new equipment to videos from the “golf guru’s” to all types of gadgets to gain distance off the tee and improve your overall score. Let me tell you the secret that worked for me and that you probably have not thought about or tried. My “secret” is that I started exercising with Lori and have found that thanks to her structured work outs, I have greatly improved my flexibility and balance. What do these improvements equate to on a golf course? I have increased my distance off the tee from an average of 245 yards to an average of 280 yards! Not only have I increased my distance off the tee, but my scores have been getting lower since I now have greater stamina late in the round. Every golfer knows that the latest craze on the PGA Tour is fitness, if fitness is good for the pros, why not for the average golfer? I am proof that proper fitness training with a trained professional like Lori can help a golf game. Try it and see for yourself; if nothing else, its easier to explain to the spouse than why you need another new driver!
