This place really is the best! After reaching a point where I felt I had nothing else to lose I found myself at Balance Fitness & Health working with Sean. Since the beginning there hasnt been a session where I didnt feel completely encouraged, and supported yet truly challenged all at the same time. Weight loss was my main goal and I quickly saw real results, losing 62lbs in 5 months. But what I realized after a few months was that I was happy again. Maybe thats not measurable, but Sean gave me back my life in so many ways! I also have a partially fused wrist and several other orthopedic injuries. Other programs/trainers have made me feel limited and I spent time siting on the sidelines having been given exercises that were physically impossible for me. Sean has never once made me feel limited, or has he ever given me an exercise I couldnt do. The individual programs he writes for me along with his vast knowledge of strength training, nutrition and his genuine interest in me and my life has all lead to an overall experience I could have never dreamed of. I feel healthier, stronger, energized and incredibly lucky to have both Sean and Dave in my life.

As a type 1 diabetic and a Registered Nurse, it is very difficult to find a trainer that truly has an understanding of this disease process. You tend to get categorize in the type 2 diabetes genre. When I first met David it was apparent he was very knowledgeable and had a very good understanding of both types of diabetes and the differences between type 1 and type 2 diabetes. He understood that there was more than just perfect eating and weight lifting in order to get me into the shape that I wanted to be in. David dedicated a lot of time on and off the clock in order for me to reach my goals. Thank you David for keeping me in a category of my own. I would recommend David personally and professionally to those who truly want to reach there goals. David Dionne, RN BSN

Dave Bertrand is simply the best there is! If you are looking for someone with corrective exercise experience to help you through some injuries Dave is your man. He is great with other personal fitness goals too but I needed help to move past some old injuries. I am not sure where I would be if it was not for Dave. He is knowledgeable and has taught me some great skills that I use when we are not able to get together. Dave is especially good with deep tissue work which I usually get done to release knots in my back, hips, and thighs. Go see Dave at Balance Fitness you won’t regret it! I drive about 45 minutes to get to Dave and I would do another hour because he is that good.

David Bertrand is a brilliant trainer. I came to Balance with horrible knee pain in both knees after suffering through physical therapy and sports medicine, which did help but not 100%. Working with David, however, completely eliminated my knee pain through simple strength and flexibility. He quickly identified the weaknesses and dysfunctions which were limiting me and immediately set to work on a custom program designed around my needs. He pushed me to expand my limits without ever putting my health in danger, and I am stronger than I have ever been. I even lost 30 lbs in the process. Knee pain is a thing of the past for me, and I have a new outlook on exercise.

He is there to ensure that you are not just getting stronger and healthier, but you are doing it safely and within sustainable results. The level of attention and service is nothing less than exceptional. If you are looking for a place that will stick with you through your fitness journey, a place that will hold you to a higher standard, this is it.

David Bertrand is the real deal. He is very knowledgeable and trained which provides him the ability to push you to your limits without injury. I have been working out with David for 2 years and at age 40 I am now in the best shape of my life. All due to how well designed my program is and how hard he makes you work, which ultimately provides the best results. The facility is clean and welcoming and contains every type of fitness gear and equipment. David and his staff are who you need to be training with if you are truly serious about achieving your goals.

I have been training with David Bertrand for close to 10 years now. David is by far the BEST personal trainer around! His knowledge, education and experience go far beyond his years. I have had a few injuries and surgeries and each time David has helped in the recovery and gaining strength and mobility. He pushes me past my comfort zone and our workouts are never boring. David is a great listener, motivator and educator, and hes also a great guy! I have learned so much from him. I know I will be working with David for many more years to come.

David Bertrand is awesome!!! I would highly recommend Balance Fitness to anyone who asks. My husband and I have worked with him for years. He has continued to come up with creative, fun, and challenging ways to push us. His knowledge of nutrition and kinetics is extensive and he will help anyone willing to put in the effort reach their goal. No matter if you are just starting out your fitness journey or have worked out for years and would like to take it to the next level Balance Fitness is for everyone.

David and his crew are absolutely the best! As a full-time working mother of two young kids, I have limited time and need to maximize my workouts. In 1 year of training with David and others at Balance Fitness and Health, I have seen more results than I have in over 15 years of various fitness programs. Davids knowledge is unmatched, and most importantly, the programs are effective! If youre looking for results, check out Balance Fitness and Health!

I am proud to share my experience and recommend David to everyone I know.
