Testimonials
"Troy Fontana touches my life every day - even when it is not my day to work with him! His training and counseling continually guide my footsteps. Learning about nutrition as well as the proper way to work out are just two of the benefits of working with Troy. I feel better, life is more satisfying in every way, and osteoporosis is well on its way out of my life."
"Fontana Fitness changed my life! In many more ways besides the obvious; health, strength and overall fitness level – the new friends and acquaintances I have met, and how each of them have their own stories of success, has encouraged me to keep moving. Troy, you have been especially motivating – both physically and spiritually to me. I have come back to finding peace in prayer again; you have a funny way of making everyone see the brighter side of life, and for that I am grateful."

"Fontana Fitness and my trainer Kyrie Teel are changing my life!! I came to Fontana Fitness overweight, tired and frustrated. I needed hope and they gave me hope! From my first consultation with Kyrie, I knew we would make a great team. She pushes me like I've never been pushed in my life. I do things that I never thought in my wildest dreams I could make my body do. I love the fact that my workouts are not predictable, so I don't get bored. I came in feeling sorry for myself but they didn't feel sorry for me :). They see my potential and make sure I reach it every work out. My body and mind have been transformed. These guys care, not just your body but about your whole being!"

"Fontana Fitness is a great enviroment to train in. You are not a mere number like other facilities; the trainers work with you one-on-one and help you achieve your goals. I have known Troy for 10 years, and in those ten years I have grown to be a better person not only by keeping myself in shape, but also spiritually. I consider Troy and the Fontana Staff family."
-Peter K.
"Fontana Fitness inspires me to be a better person. The trainers push me to challenge my body, to get me out of a routine and reach further. I love the variation of our workouts and every time I reach a goal or take a step in completing a goal, it pushes me to reach what I know I am (deep down) capable of. They have given me tools (knowledge) to help me achieve my goals. I enjoy the camaraderie and I believe they want us to succeed. It’s awesome to be around positive people who keep me motivated and hopefully I can return the favor."

"Troy sees that my handicapped son's leg and arm muscles are toned, so his balance is better, resulting in fewer falls. He trained and advised my other son, who is a marathon runner, and he worked with my daughter on a weight-gaining program. My husband's diet is better because of what I have learned from Troy. He is our family's trainer, adviser, and best of all he is our friend."

"Facing a difficult challenge, Karim really heard me. We talked about what I needed to do, why I needed to do it and how I was going to do it. When I really needed him to get serious—he came through like a champ and we discussed what the plan was going to be. I could tell that this was not just important to me, but it was important to him too. He needed to do whatever was necessary to get me back on track. I told Karim my challenge and he was 'all over it.'"

"Although I have always been heavy, my life was manageable until the last couple of years when I started worrying about staying healthy. Now at 58, I discovered the extra weight and lack of exercise was limiting my whole life, mentally and physically. With the encouragement of my family and the intervention email my youngest daughter, Lisa, sent to me one Saturday morning, I knew I had to find help. I first contacted a national gym and found myself on a waiting list for a trainer who returned my call with more of an impersonal sales pitch. I remember seeing Fontana Fitness and I decided to walk in one lunch hour. Then, my life began to change. I feel incredibly lucky to have met Karim Khaliki, who inspires me to work hard with positive encouragement coupled with a great sense of humor. He is an encyclopedia for good, healthy living and shares his broad knowledge of nutrition and physical fitness with me every session. Six weeks later, I am happier, feel stronger than ever, and have realized my biggest goal in life now is to be the Best I Can Be. Thank you, Karim!!!! Thank you Troy and Fontana Fitness!!!"

How Fontana Fitness has helped me obtain my fitness goals
There's a place on the Marina
That I used to just walk by
But, now it's so
It's where I go
That's made my spirit rise
I did commit to being fit
To put some zip back in my life
They cheer me up
They work me out
Their trimming down my size
So thank you now I give to them
To all the gals and guys
Fontana Fitness, as they say,
"Every Body's Paradise!"

"I have been working out religiously with Troy for one and a half years. Mondays used to be the start of a dreadful week of work and never ending demands on my time and energy that left me tired, cranky, and exhausted. And exercise was a drudgery that I only attempted during short periods of my life when the person in my mirror became too much or too large for me to ignore.
"Now I love Mondays! Mondays are the first day of a new week of exercise. They are the chance to start all over fresh again, no matter what I did or didn’t do over the previous week. No matter what I feel like when I wake up Monday morning, after my training session with Troy, I feel stronger and ready to take on what ever the week has in store for me."

"The trainers here all have their own neat personality along with their clients that make the studio a fun place to SWEAT!!...Everything I use to workout with by my trainer, Sargent BEN is quite the experience and makes working out enjoyable.
"One of my lifestyle changes that Ben has inspired me to do is to cut way-I mean way- back on my alocohol intake!...
"Ben, thanks for pushing me toward my goal everyday I train with you. Ben has directed me to the right ideas on my nutrition, to eat and maintain a normal lifestyle that I can easily continue day-by-day."

"Since the third grade, I have always had a weight problem. There have been countless times that I have tried to lose weight without any success. Even after getting my first personal trainer, I began to see results, but none of them stayed for too long.
"Then my dad picked up a card advertising a boot camp at Fontana Fitness. My mom insisted I tried going there, but I said no, not really wanting to go into a group setting. Looking into the place a little more, my mom decided to pay for a personal trainer. So, weighing 173 pounds, I went to Fontana, and it was then that I met Karim. Everything began to change at that moment. Not only did I begin to see results, but I also realized that my goal were aiming toward the wrong destination. Before going to Fontana Fitness, I was looking at other people and thinking about how I wanted to look like them. Instead, Karim taught me to look at myself and go for the way I want to look.
"The trainers at Fontana Fitness are not just my trainers; they are my friends and have helped me through one of the toughest parts of my life."
