Joel Melanson has worked with me in developing and maintaining a training plan since 2008. At that time, I was someone who had a hard time crossing a street without breathing problems. Joel created a program for me that started slowly, with walking and stretching, and now is much more challenging. He pushes me to step up to the next level, but is sensitive to do it slowly and with a great deal of encouragement. My ability to enjoy life, to walk, to feel 100% healthier, and to feel proud about taking care of myself again has been enhanced by Joel's approach to personal training. While I may huff and puff during our sessions, at the end of our time, I walk out more energized and feeling more healthy. I highly recommend Joel to anyone who wants to start an exercise program, and to anyone who needs encouragement to go to the next level towards their fitness goal.

Dryland Training with Inertia Fitness is an excellent resource for Developing Hockey Players. At the PeeWee competitive level I found that the improved fitness levels resulted in a noticable improvement in late game performance. Also the gains that were made in Co-Ordination, Agility and Strength can be the beginning of great fitness habits for young athletes. I feel we played better hockey as a result of this program.

Having a personal trainer from Inertia fitness for the past two years has made it easy to stay committed to my long terms goals of increasing my overall strength and having a feeling of overall wellness. Having Joel as my personal trainer has helped me gain the confidence that I am capable of continually meeting the challenges of the new exercises that he customizes for me. I now feel more physically fit than I ever have in the past!

My name is Patrick Arseneau and I’m 31 years old. I was skinny most of my life and never really felt the need to work out or watch what I ate. My poor food habit and lack of physical activities finally caught up with me to the point where I felt embarrassed to take off my shirt. I felt like that my fiancée deserved much better and I decided to change the way I looked - for both of us.
