"I started working out with Mike after he'd been training my husband for several years. I am a runner, and it took me a long time to realize the benefits of strength training and HIIT. Mike made it all very easy though - he's incredibly friendly, approachable and tough in a good way. After I had a baby, he was fantastic at helping me get back into shape. As a bonus, he even entertains the kids when I'm lifting weights! I can't say enough great things about him."

"I’ve always been athletic and very active in sports, however, I really only participated in individual sports– not with teams that made a point to practice or work out. Uncharacteristically, I told a friend of mine who gifted me a session with a trainer that I would agree to meet Mike O’Neill and do a work out. I made it clear that I hated everything about working out. I had tried many times previously but it never suited my personality and still doesn’t. Now that I’m over 60, I still dread the moments just before Mike arrives just as I have twice a week for nearly 10 years. Crazy right? I hate to see him come through the door, but I'm still very fit because I hate seeing him leave even more."

“My mother Natalie was 82 years old when she was hospitalized after a fall. Her muscles had atrophied to the point that she had to come home on a stretcher attended by 24-hour aides. She could no longer walk, stand, sit up, or turn over in bed by herself. I was told the most I could hope for was that she would use a wheelchair and that she would never improve beyond that. Mike came in and began a program of intense physical therapy, strength training, and confidence boosting all tailored specifically for Natalie. In spite of her doctors predictions, she is walking, she has lost 36 pounds, and looks and feels better than she has in years. A diabetic: her blood sugar is now normal. Her cholesterol is low and her doctors are amazed. She is going out without the wheelchair and getting her life back.”

"Terase has been my personal trainer for many years and it has been a wonder match. During that time, I have had opportunities to compare her to other trainers in the same gym and there isn't one as dedicated and focused as Terase. On days when I have not felt up to a work out, Terase adjusts the tempo. At the same time she is a trainer who does not easily allow one to become bored or distracted. Terase's dedication and training skills mean a lot to me and I intend to continue with her on a regular basis into the future. I am pleased to speak with potential clients by phone or email."
Robert Quinlan
"I am very pleased to offer a recommendation for Terase DeLauder who has been a personal trainer to both myself and my wife for the past eight years. During that time, we have trained separately with Terase from two to three times a week. Before that, we had worked with other trainers, but none offered Terase's professional skills. She is small but tough in a good way. Usually my wife and I work out in the same cooperative building gym with other tenants and their trainers. The basis of comparison is close at hand. It is not uncommon for other clients to carry on unrelated conversations with their trainers throughout their sessions, deflecting from the concentration needed to have the most effective work out. The trainers are often complicit. Not so with Terase, who is focused entirely on her "clients specific training needs." At the same time, she is always friendly and courteous. My wife and I would find it difficult to replace a personal trainer with the same dedication to our physical well being that Terase offers us. Without reservation, I give her five stars.”
Wendy Friedland
"My husband and I have been training with Terase for the past 15 years. She is the most delightful, patient, kind and knowledgable trainer I have ever met. I highly recommend her for anyone who wants to get fit fast... or anyone that thinks they can't get fit, but wants to try. She is very encouraging and will have you running around the block or doing push ups in no time!"
These are three clients, Charles, Michelle and Eric, that have worked with Mike and Terase, and the results are clearly amazing!
