I won't ever try to SELL you on our service but if you are considering hiring a personal trainer, please read a few (or all) of our reviews from REAL local people.
In fact, just scroll down until you see a name you know and read their review.
Christine Allen
I can’t say enough good things about training with Dave! My daughter and I both started with him back in May, and it’s been such a positive experience for us. Every workout is different, which keeps things fun and challenging. He really knows how to push us to get better without it ever feeling overwhelming. He’s encouraging, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping us reach our goals. Highly recommend Dave.
David Minto
Was referred to Dave by a friend and I’ve been so happy that I was sent his way. Prior to beginning working together, Dave sat down with me to hear out exactly what I was looking for. Through that conversation, I felt as though Dave understood my goals and we were able to set expectations. Dave has helped with with accountability, programming, and overall workout intensity. After just a few weeks, I can already feel results – my energy levels are up and I just don’t ache like I used to. I plan to continue my program with Dave and am excited to see what the future holds.
Allison Fields
I absolutely love Dave! I have never done one-on-one training and hate I have been missing out! He is so knowledgeable and so dedicated to his clients. I particularly love that not only does he have exercises to “work around” my back pain but also hits it head on to strengthen it so that I won’t have to do that forever.
Anita Logan
Kami and Dave Whiteis at Physique Fitness bring a level of professionalism and individualized care that’s truly hard to find. I’ve been training with Kami, and her ability to tailor each workout to my specific needs, goals, and limitations has been both effective and motivating. She’s focused, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping you improve in a safe, consistent way. It’s clear that both she and Dave care deeply about the quality of their work and the progress of every client. I’m truly grateful to be working with them.
JDA Harrison
Absolutely recommend Phy-sique Fitness! Dave has done an amazing job working with my child in both track and XC. Vast improvement and continued excitement with the sport 👍. Thanks Dave!
Chad Anderson
Coach Dave is an excellent trainer and mentor. My daughter has been working with Coach Dave for about a year now and has enjoyed every minute of it! He is very knowledgeable and experienced in training great runners.. He has been a great motivator to help her achieve her goals. He is so good about demonstrating the correct form for the athletes.
We highly recommend Phy-sique and Coach Dave for a positive experience in fitness training. A+
Mandy Barber
We absolutely love Coach Dave! He came highly recommended for my 15 year old son and we could not be more thrilled to have found him. Dave has a huge wealth of knowledge when it comes to all types of training but certainly when it comes to running, and he is so generous to share all he has learned over the years. My son’s running form, times, and overall health have improved since we started with Dave. We love his training philosophy, his positivity and his outlook on performance. He is an amazing trainer and mentor and we are so grateful for him!
Josie McKenzie
The most amazing personal trainer, ever!! From the workouts to the pep talks! He is involved, engaged, personable, inspiring, dedicated, and educated! Love him!! Highly recommend!
Jay Elliott
We came to Coach Dave for advice regarding cross country and track and field. The first running sessions that he encouraged I observe were so good. His method of teaching the mechanics and then making adjustments is very effective. The strength training on top of mechanics and advice on fueling well is spot on. The results show up on race day if your runner has the personal drive and desire to get better.
Michele Chapman
My teenage daughter has trained with Dave for almost a year and loves it. She feels stronger, more confident and healthy. Additionally, Dave listens to her goals and helps her make appropriate choices to succeed.
Erica Thistlethwaite
My 13-year-old son loves his workout sessions with Dave. Dave keeps it challenging yet fun and my son absolutely loves feeling exhausted after each session - a true sense of accomplishment. His confidence is soaring!
Blake Severson
I have been working with Dave the last couple of months, and have never been happier with the results. I’ve gone from not being able to even jog, to being able to run 2 miles and feel comfortable while doing it. I’ve also gone from not being able to do a single push-up, to cranking out 20 in a matter of two months. He is excellent, patient, and eager to meet your fitness goals. If you’re serious about finding a personal trainer, please talk to Dave Whiteis!
Ezra Sexton
Came to Dave for just a few short weeks in between seasons as a college athlete. Dave helped me to significantly improve my speed mechanics in a short amount of time. His advice and critiques allowed me to make minor changes for major impacts quickly.
Thank you so much Coach Dave!
Justin Jennings
I have been training with Dave for almost three months and couldn’t be more pleased. Dave’s workouts are tailored to me and my goals and success is all but guaranteed if you put in the work. I am down over 30 pounds and my cardiovascular fitness and overall strength is the best it has been in years. Dave is a great motivator and even though my workouts are challenging, I look forward to them. I do have some issues with my knee and Dave’s understanding of how to work around my limitations but at the same time strengthen and improve has been great. I highly recommend Dave for anyone looking to improve their overall fitness.
kathryn helton
We are so fortunate to have found Coach Dave. He trains my freshman for her track events. She loves learning and improving under his tutelage. Her times and distances are already improving. He has a wealth of knowledge and is an excellent communicator. She absolutely loves working with him. If you want to invest in your child’s athletic growth, Coach Dave is a great choice. The camps he leads are also great.
Kayla Ramplin
Dave is absolutely incredible to work with! He knows exactly how to challenge you during your workouts to get the results that you want. He's always done a great job listening to my goals and modifying exercises when necessary. By far the best trainer I've ever had- 10/10 would recommend!!
James Griggs
Dave Whiteis is THE best trainer I have ever had. He tailors the program to your goals and abilities. Pushes you to personal pride in your accomplishments.
Tim Thomas
Dave is a phenomenal personal trainer with a wealth of knowledge about health and fitness! Daily workouts and overall planning is tailored to my individual goals and needs. Looking forward to the next three years of training together!
Jane Dudley
Dave is an outstanding motivator. We have been working with him for over a year on the track and in the gym. He has a strong passion for helping individuals achieve their goals. Dave takes the time to focus on the athlete he is training and figuring out what works best for them. This is not a one size fits all program. Dave is a fantastic human being we highly recommend him as a strength and training coach.
Kevin Filliater
I have been working out with Dave for nearly 2 1/2 years now. Dave has helped me increase overall body strength that has allowed me to run without pain and play better golf. Dave is always prepared for our workouts, always on time, and can adjust his schedule to meet my busy travel schedule. If you’re looking for a trainer that can meet your busy life schedule and push you to limits you had no idea you could reach, Dave is your man.
Rick Center
Dave is an excellent trainer. His program has delivered amazing results for me beyond my expectations. I never would have thought a mere 30 minutes per session, 3 sessions per week would have my 50-year-old body in the same (or better) shape as I was in my early 20's when I was in the military. He has been training me for 1.5 years, and I am down 50 pounds over this time period, while gaining significant muscle and without changing my diet. My body has changed so much that my family and friends often comment on my physique (guess he named his business appropriately) when they see me.
I also like that his program addresses cardio, overall fitness and balance as much as it does strength. I know these will serve me well as I continue to get older. I feel my time with Dave is adding years to my life, which means more years and memories with my kids and future grandkids. And not only will I have more years, but I will enjoy them more because of the strength, mobility and balance I have gained as a result of Dave's training.
Ashley Thames
Dave is a wonderful trainer. He has an excellent array of knowledge in fitness. He takes a holistic approach to explaining how the body responds to the many workouts in his arsenal. He also educates his clients on proper diet and nutrition. He’s fun and keeps the workouts interesting. He always challenges me to do work hard and do my best!
Fletcher Williams
I’ve worked with Dave for over 5 months now.
Firstly, I travel a lot and this makes scheduling very difficult. From last minute rescheduling to quality communication, Dave always takes care of me.
The quality of workouts are always phenomenal. I asked him to leave me in a puddle of my own sweat every time we work out. Dear god did he provide. His years of knowledge and experience have proven him suitable to leave me gasping for air after only 30 minutes. I’ve exercised for many years, but never to this level. He provides exactly what I asked for.
Dave offers many levels of training though, so don’t be worried. I’ve noticed he exercises with all levels of clients. I just asked for the hardest workouts I’ve ever had.
I’d absolutely recommend him, the facility we exercise in, and wholeheartedly stand by his work ethic and customer care.
His rates are extremely competitive, I met with 4 other trainers before I chose Dave. I’ll continue working out with him and I’m very excited to continue seeing results.
Nicole Olmsted
For several months I was experiencing tight hips and lower back pain. I was referred by a friend to Dave for stretching. It has been so beneficial. My pain and discomfort has decreased and my sleep has improved drastically. He is very professional and extremely knowledgeable in health and wellness. Game changer!!
Anna Fargason
Dave has been great to work with. He is extremely knowledgeable and provides the why behind all the exercises he teaches. His communication and flexibility with working with our busy schedules has been great too. I would definitely recommend Dave to anyone looking to improve their strength and running technique.
Joey Glass
My daughter has been training with Dave for the last year. Dave works with her on running form as well as strength and conditioning for Cross Country and Track. The difference in her performance after she trains with him is night and day. The mental toughness she has acquired as well as the overall performance is amazing. Dave is very knowledgeable and truly wants what is best for the kids. My child will never be an Olympian, but with Dave’s training, she will certainly be the BEST that she can be and is having fun with the success. As a parent that’s all I could ask for! Would give 10 stars if possible.
Henry Richeson
I've been training with Dave for a year and a half and he has never broken his initial promise of two things:
1. The workouts will never get stale &
2. 30 minutes is all you need for an intense workout
After injuring my back, I didn't have many good work-out options with a very busy home and work life. Dave has been able to get me fit again while being flexible with my ever-changing schedule and focusing on exercises that would not aggravate my back. Even though I knew quickly that Dave was an expert in his field, I grew to appreciate him more as a person than a trainer/business owner. Dave is a wonderful family man and I look forward to our conversations about life and family as he kicks my tail 2-3 times a week!!
Jaafar Laghmadi_P
Dave is awesome! He strikes that delicate balance between being real friendly and super professional. Needless to say, great workouts! Strongly recommend w/o reservation.
Brian Stuart
Needed a trainer to help me recover after a six month period of multiple back surgeries. Dave came recommended by a close friend and I can relay the high recommendation. He has done an excellent job pushing me outside of my comfort zone without pushing me too far and letting me hurt myself. I have gained a tremendous amount of mobility in a short amount of time.
One key advantage Dave had against other training options I evaluated was multiple options for workout locations/gyms. Instead of having to pay for an additional gym membership on top of the trainer fee, Dave was able to offer locations that are free and not packed full of other people.
Teresa Wasko
I am almost 50 years old and I had never used a trainer before. I'm must say that I have been pleasantly surprised at the care that Dave has taken with my development. He is very patient and he does not push you further than you need to go I cannot say enough about his company and him, he is spectacular thank you Dave very much.
Kaleigh Ray
Dave has been my running coach and strength coach since I was 13 years old. He helped me to reach my goal of running on a Division II cross country and track team. He coached me through several injuries and helped me overcome all the obstacles I faced. He is a really great coach and motivator. He is extremely invested in his clients. I would recommend him or his wife to anyone!
William Shields
Dave is the best trainer I've worked with in the area. His studio has everything you'll need to get into fighting shape or whatever your goals are. His workout plans are personalized and he provides exactly the right amount of enthusiasm to get you to your next milestone. He's a passionate family man and a big part of the local community. Definitely would recommend him.
Baytide15
I’ve been going to Dave for stretch sessions for about a month now. I run a lot, but like most runners neglect to stretch well and have never cared for yoga. After my stretch sessions, I feel relaxed and light! Surprisingly, I feel better after a stretch than I do after a massage. Dave makes me feel comfortable, is very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. Highly recommended!
Maconica Sawyer
I have been working with Dave for one month, and in that time, I have seen both my body change and my self-confidence increase. Dave is extremely knowledgeable and knows his stuff! He is always available to answer my questions and is motivating me even when I am not in the gym. After two c-sections and four years of not being able to do a a sit-up, Dave has tailored my workouts to engage not only my core, but also increase my overall body strength. I am so thankful to have found Phy-Sique Fitness!
Kat Gammie
Dave has been an amazing trainer. He's always professional and knowledgeable, and he really has a passion for helping people improve their fitness. I started as a total beginner and felt intimidated at the thought of going to the gym, but in four months I have gained so much confidence and physically feel better and stronger. I would recommend Phy-sique to anyone regardless of experience or fitness level; they will meet you where you are and help you reach your goals.
Brandon O'Donnell
I have been training with Dave for several years now. As time goes by my particular goals have changed and Dave has been able to adapt our workouts to those goals. Excellent service to keep you healthy and mobile. Highly recommend.
rx sport
As a stretch client, I’ve been impressed with not only how professional Dave is, but how much better my body feels after our session is done. I highly recommend anyone who works out regularly or anyone really to go see Dave and let him help with increased flexibility and decreased soreness.
Kim Phillippi
Our son runs Cross Country, but our school doesn’t have a track team. We sought to find someone who would train him in the off-season (and during season if needed) and we found out about Dave. He assessed our son’s running pattern and developed a plan moving forward. He expects our son to put forth his best effort each and every session, encourages him, and guides him to become a better runner.
Larry Marcrum
We used David for his track expertise training my daughter with triple jump. He is very knowledgeable & patient with his clients! He is also makes himself available to fit your schedule! I highly recommend Dave for your training news!!!
Tina Stewart
I am extremely happy with the training I am receiving. After 3 babies I felt like I’d never be back in shape, after a short period I’m confident that I am on my way to being fit again with the help I’m receiving from Dave. He is very flexible with scheduling. He is also very personable. I strongly recommend them to anyone who is looking to build a healthy lifestyle change.
JM Kilpatrick
Dave is truly a professional who is educated and has YEARS of experience in weight training. He has taken my health and body to an entirely different level. I came to him with an injury and he knew exactly what exercises I could do that would give me the same results positions and movements that never affected my injury. I HIGHLY recommend this guy!! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Patricia Singley
I get a whole body stretch from Dave on a regular basis . I have severe issues with flexibility of my muscles and joints . Not only does the stretching help with my flexibility it also helps my mind to relax while having it done . I feel so good after a good stretch . I highly recommend Dave .
Jamila Wilson
I have been working with Dave for a couple of
months now, and he is not only super professional, he will push you. He takes the time to map out my workout for what my goals are. He’s a great listener and willing to be very flexible. I couldn’t ask for a better trainer!!
Wells Hammock
Dave has been training me for the last 8 years. We struck a deal that no workout would be exactly the same. After over 750+ sessions he still has something new to bring to the workout. He has tailored our workouts over the years to coincide with various ailments that may arise to keep me healthy.
Donna Wegener
I have been training with Dave for about 2 months. I am not an athlete and frankly I do not like working out. Dave treats me no different than an athlete. He stays focused on my goals, teaches the importance of movement, progression, nutrition and hydration. I am always proud when I make it through my 30 minutes.
jeff trask
My name is Kelly Trask and just moved here from Illinois in July. I have never lifted weights nor had a personal trainer. At 51, I was very intimidated at the thought of even doing this. However, I read a recent post of David being able to work with ALL fitness types, any injury (disc replacement 20 yrs ago in my neck), and any work schedule as I work full time. I decided to take this leap for myself for the first time in my life and so glad I did. He has made my workouts personalized to ME - I go in for my 30 minutes and he has everything ready to go! No thinking or planning on my part which is relaxing after a stressful day at work! Highly recommend - it is worth every penny! I can already tell a HUGE difference in my strength after just 7 weeks!
Anderson McKean
My 15-year-old son is getting such fabulous training from Dave. Tailored to his body type and fitness goals, it’s amazing hard he can work in 30 minutes! Fantastic encouragement and great results!
Emily Ray
I have been training with Kami for several years. After every workout I always leave feeling like I got a good workout. She provides a variety of workouts so you are never bored doing the same routine.
I have also had several stretch sessions with Dave and they are fantastic. The stretch sessions really eased my back pain. He really stretched you out!
S S
I’ve stated this to Dave and will gladly say it here. The services he provides through the assisted stretching regimen are unmatched! You can not get this type of relief on your own no matter how well you attempt to stretch yourself! I was experiencing tightness in my hips and my upper back. By the first visit I felt relief. By the second visit I was already asking about my third! I’m former military, and played sports in high school, so stretching is something I knew to do but it was not enough to relieve tightness! His place is clean and private. Groovy playlist happening in the background and he explains the mechanisms behind every stretch he performs on you! I messaged through his site. Received a text with an appointment in less than 48 hours, and my session started on time! My hips and back feel great! You will be amazed at how well a good assisted stretch brings relief so fast! Safe for all ages! Good for the body and amazing for the mind because you won’t be concerned with feeling tight in certain spots like you once were! My best advice for you is to book and enjoy the immediate relief his services have provided!
Seth Williams
Before training with Dave my mobility was that of a man 20 years older than me. Dave’s knowledge and approach to training has me feel younger than I am. Follow his instructions and put in the work. Thank you Dave.
Mark Alan Malinauskas
Dave and Kami are awesome people! Their straightforwardness, honesty and heaps and heaps of knowledge has helped my family to get on the right track physically. We really appreciate their expertise and we are overwhelmingly pleased from the results in just a few short weeks. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for us on this healthy track. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you to Dave and Kami!
Sam Yeager-Allen
Highly recommend Kami & Dave! With Kami's guidance, I have incorporated Reformer Pilates into my weekly training routine. She is extremely knowledgeable and does a wonderful job of explaining the mechanics of all of the movements. My primary focus has been to use Reformer Pilates to supplement and complement to marathon training and it has truly transformed my running. I am much stronger and faster than I was before starting Pilates and I have Kami & Dave to thank for that!
Lacey Bortvit
Dave was amazing with my teen. He really inspired him and helped him become more confident. He is hoping to continue training with him soon!
Michael Walley
Dave is the best! He helped me regain my strength, balance and confidence.
Dave and Kami both are awesome people and very knowledgeable.
If you're looking for the best. You found it with Dave.
Keri Karns
Dave and Kami are simply the best! I have been trying to lose weight my whole adult life and with the help of the meal plan prepared by Kami which consists of all the foods I love, I have been able to lose weight very easily. Kami is so helpful and I love that she takes the time to check to make sure I am keeping on track. I can’t wait to continue my success with personal training after the new year! 😁
Steven Walling
Dave is very knowledgeable concerning my physical condition. He plans my workout in advance and insures I execute properly. I’m a senior and would recommend him to all.
Mea Thom
I've been going to Kami for Pilates for a while now and she's the best! She modifies my workouts when I'm dealing with injuries and pushes me to be my best when I'm not. I always feel like I've worked really hard when I leave. Definitely recommend Phy-sique Fitness!
I've also done a stretching session with Dave! Great experience and super thorough! Felt really good afterwards!

Kalla Bufkin
If you are looking for a trainer who is knowledgable and personable, look no further. I have been training with Kami for a little over a year now and she has personalized my training through many stages. When I first started training with Kami I was 5 months postpartum from my first baby and then shortly afterwards became pregnant with my second. Kami personalized my workouts to meet my goals while still keeping the exercises pregnancy friendly ;). A few months ago, I told Kami that I wanted to start lifting and she adjusted my workouts accordingly. Here I am 6 months post birth of 2nd baby and I am crushing goals left and right. I met my pre baby weight goal by 3 months and am now down 10lbs lighter. I feel stronger and have noticeable muscle definition. My husband and friends have made many comments about me getting stronger and/or thinner. All of these things made possible due to training/ working with Kami. She drives me and pushes me to do more. After having my second baby and trying to plan around nap times, feedings, and getting two kids ready and out of the house I asked Kami if we could move my sessions to my house. We have been training at my home gym (garage with some weights and other equipment) ever since. Sometimes she gets stuck holding or entertaining a baby but never misses a beat. Kami and Dave are all around good people and amazing trainers. I recommend them to anyone looking for a trainer.
T. Chad VanDerHeyden
I have been working out with Dave and Kami for several years and can't say enough positive things about the results I get. I have consistently received excellent and highly efficient training that is oriented to address whatever physical goal I am working on.
Lynn Deang
We have utilized Coach Dave for his track expertise. He has been training our son on optimizing running form, race strategy and more. It is clear he not only possesses the passion for coaching but the knowledge and professionalism to back it up. Highly recommend!!!
Jerry Streich
You wouldn't want to fight your own house fire. You would call the professionals who have the skill and tools to get the job done. If you are serious about your health, this is the number to call.
Dave and Kami didn't just start a business one day, they competed in collegiate activities and hold national and international titles; not to mention a Masters Degree and certifications galore. They prepared themselves to assure you receive the right skill and tools you need when you call.
Pay now or pay later!
Rob Inabinet
Dave is awesome. I have not worked out in years due to some medical issues. He has been so patient in helping me start slow . Each week gets so much better
Cynthia Harbaugh
I have used Phy-sique Fitness, and worked out with Dave and Kami, for more than 10 years, using reformer Pilates, strength training and cardio to stay healthy and fit and more flexible. They have helped me in so many ways to stay strong and free from joint and back pain. They are true professionals and I love the personalized training, and they make it FUN!
Michael Walley
I feel very lucky to have gotten involved with Dave's training. He has brought me to whole new level of commitment. Besides he's a great guy!
Julie Beckham
Great personal trainer. Dave tailors each workout specifically for us and pushes us to get stronger.
Gennifer Taloney
Dave is fantastic at what he does.
Kathryn Mitchell
I finally made the decision to seek a trainer several months and could not be more pleased with how things have worked out. Each workout is tailored to my needs and abilities; every time I leave I have felt accomplished and challenged.
