“In February of this year, I recognized that it was time to make a positive change to my exercise and nutrition regimens. Never having dieted or tried to lose weight, I wasn’t sure what to expect when I first joined Shape Plus. Luckily, I chose the right facility and...

Life over the course of the past 1 1/2 years that I have been training at Shape Plus has been both challenging and amazing. I am so proud and thankful that I have been able to accomplish goals that felt impossible before. I have traveled to new places, said goodbye to...

Before I started training with Shape Plus, I was not the cliché scenario where I woke up overweight one morning and couldn’t recognize myself. I actively and hopelessly watched myself lose who I was as I went through some of the most stressful years of my life. At the...

I finally realized that I was not getting the results I wanted on my own when I didn't fit into my size 10 bridesmaid dress that I had ordered a few months before. I had tried weight watchers and P90x in the past with little to no results. I lacked the motivation,...

My off season usually consists of lifting sandwiches, but I made a change this year and started working hard with my personal trainer Jess at Shape Plus personal training. From my diet to my workout routine, Jess Hogue has provided me with everything I need to make...

I started working with my personal trainer Jess two (2) days each week. At such time, I weighed 222 pounds, and I was in need of a major makeover. During our first session, Jess told me that he was confident that I would achieve amazing results. Ultimately, his...

Shape Plus personal training was my last resort. I had tried every diet, pill, prescription and motivational book under the sun and I was a classic case of yo-yo dieting. I probably lost 500 pounds over the span of 15 years by gaining 10 pounds and losing 10 pounds in...
