“I started working with Miriam about seven months ago. I was eight months past my wedding, was tired of being caught in the cycle of low calorie dieting, and feeling frustrated that I was losing control of the ‘wedding body’ I had worked so hard for. When I reached out to Miriam I was mostly focused on my physical appearance. I can honestly say that in the last several months of working with her, my focus has shifted from the physical appearance to physical strength, from stressing over everything I ate to embracing the joy that comes from more freedom with my food, and from feeling in a rut and burned out physically to feeling more energized and inspired in the gym than I have felt in a long time.
It is evident from Miriam’s responsiveness and the time and effort she has put into helping me achieve my goals that she deeply cares about all of her clients. Her programs are customized and challenging, and she is willing to adapt her programming if needed. It can be difficult to find reliable online trainers, but Miriam stands out from the others. She is a genuine person who cares about her clients’ physical and mental health, and I look forward to continuing to work with her.”

“I came to Miriam a few months before my wedding and she not only changed my body, but my mindset about exercise. I had always been into working out, but she taught me the importance of variety in workouts, and not to be scared of heavy weights. She has a 360 approach to healthy living which is super important.
And the best part: she makes working out together fun! Every session is different so I never get bored and constantly feel challenged. She is super patient and understanding but also pushes me to work harder than I think I can. I never dread or feel anxious about an upcoming training session—I am always excited knowing that I will leave feeling stronger and more confident!”

“Training with Maddie rejuvenated my passion for fitness. She helped me escape the mind-numbing trend of ‘only doing butt workouts’ and introduced me to new full body movements, taught me essential breathing cues — and most importantly, she personally embodies our shared values about confidence, health, and fitness in her own life (which I think speaks volumes about a quality trainer). Throughout our sessions, I’ve relearned that what I treasure most about my body is not what it looks like, but rather all the amazing things it does for me everyday and how strong my body is.”
— Sophia W.
“Before working out with Miriam, I tried out every group fitness class out there for a year from spin to kickboxing to barre. Not only was I unmotivated and unenthusiastic, I never saw results and was constantly frustrated. Miriam is an amazing trainer and an even better person. She customizes each workout session to your strengths/capabilities and will push you to become stronger while still keeping your personal physical power in mind. I look forward to working out with Miriam and I truly see a difference in my body. I have not been to a group class since and I couldn’t be happier! ”
— Andrea M.
“I have been going to Miriam for over a year now and I have had the most positive experience. I honestly knew right away that she got me. She never tried to get me to do some crazy diet or choose working out over living my life, which is important to me! Miriam encourages me to have a good, balanced lifestyle and I appreciate working with someone who understands that! Being a bit on the smaller side, I had always been more of a runner and other exercises were a bit foreign to me. I never could believe that weight lifting would become apart of a five-foot girl’s work out regime, but Miriam has taught me to have more faith in understanding what’s going on in my own body and what it has the capacity to do! She has an infectious and fun energy and it honestly feels like you’re working out along side a friend. Don’t get me wrong, she completely kicks my butt and there are days when I feel the pain days after a workout with her, but it is the best kind feeling and I’m so grateful to her! I am feeling so much stronger both physically and mentally since starting with Miriam and I see the tone in my body changing! Miriam makes the workouts dynamic and fun and is a constant support! Simply the best! ”

“I started working with Miriam about 3 months ago and I’m not exaggerating when I say I honestly have nothing negative to say! When we first started together she took the time to get to know my history with health and fitness, what my current workout split was, what my nutrition looked like, what my current goals were, and and also asked how may days a week were realistic for ME to get to the gym. She made a CUSTOMIZED workout split that works for me and my current busy work schedule! The workouts are fast, very effective, and FUN! Additionally, Miriam is SO knowledgeable in the field. She is always giving me tips and pointers on improving my form, and is always very responsive whenever I have questions! I love going to the gym everyday and look forward to my workouts thanks to Miriam. I highly recommend her as a coach!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Miriam’s online training program. She’s helped me navigate the weight room by incorporating new and interesting exercises. She is ALWAYS available for quick questions and form corrections. Her positive attitude has kept me motivated and eager to continue my progress. Most importantly, she’s changed my outlook on fitness and health. I had dieted before, but nothing ever stuck. She helped me find balance and learn to feel ok, and even great about having meals out, or celebrating holidays without guilt. I look less at the numbers on the scale, and more at how I feel. I celebrate non-scale victories, like using a new machine in the gym, or hip thrusting my body weight for the first time. Even after I stopped tracking my macros, I continued to see progress while enjoying myself and allowing for indulgences. I feel like what I have been doing with Miriam’s help is a lifestyle that I can easily keep for years to come.”
— Melody H.
“Natalie is the absolute best. She is a ray of sunshine every day! She’s so positive and encouraging and is great at meeting me where I am, but still keeping me on track and helping me push myself. She has also put in a lot of time to find ways to help me work through several injuries I have dealt with. ”

“I’ve been working out virtually with Andrew for 2.5 years, twice a week. I cannot say enough about his kindness, his knowledge and skill level combined with his sensitivity and support for me. Last year I had a serious medical condition requiring major surgery. Andrew was my rock throughout my recovery, guiding me back to strength and fitness with his inimitable gentle style. Once I was gaining strength- he guided me to train further than ever. MFStrong and Andrew are my lifeline. ”
— Sally S.
“Miriam provides the perfect space to challenge yourself, build your strength AND listen to your body. Her cues and eagle eye for proper form keep you safe while pushing past your comfort zone. I’ve been her client for 5 years and I love that she continues to challenge me, celebrates new strength with me, and helps me enjoy lifting as part of my lifestyle.”
— Madison S.
“I love working out with Gina so much! When I first signed up, I was a little skeptical about virtual training and also to be honest, about paying so much more for my workouts. But it’s really paid off! I’ve never been so consistent with working out and I’ve grown so much strength and muscle. Gina is such an excellent trainer and I just love our Friday afternoon sessions. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
— Solveig G.
“I’ve worked with Miriam for over a year now - she’s been incredibly adaptable as we’ve worked through injuries, Illness and life changes. When I got disheartened because I couldn’t get my weekly split in, we adjusted it. And when I needed a breather we moved to once a week virtual sessions. I’ve hit PRs on squats, deadlifts and bench press and can do more and more things without modifications. She’s been responsive and a great cheerleader when I’m being hard on myself. Find you a trainer like Miriam and your world will change.”
— Natalie B.
“First time diving into personal training and was paired up with coach Andrew who is not only super talented but truly knows his craft. I said to Andrew after our 5th session together, “it’s amazing that I get to do this workout (in reference to lifting about 80lbs), when I’ve only ever seen others do it, and feeling like it was something I could never truly achieve because It looked so scary, I am so proud of myself!”That’s the kind of feeling I have every time I finish our work together, a feeling of achievement and less self doubt, because he coaches me through and helps me reach my goals. So excited for our work together and a stronger body! ”
— Dani
“Before finding Miriam, I had already considered myself “healthy” in terms of exercise and eating. It wasn’t until I started listening to her on Instagram that I realized my thoughts on health may be a little skewed. I reached out to her for training to continue my journey but looking to find BALANCE and more freedom. She formulated a 4 day/week strength based program, along with healthy macros that didn’t leave me feeling deprived! I quickly learned eating more may not only makes you FEEL BETTER physically but mentally! My lifts always felt fueled, so much so that I increased the amount I was lifting almost weekly. Miriam also encourages you to look at non scale victories because life is so much more than a number on the scale, and honestly, those non scale victories have been so much more satisfying than chasing a number. Can’t wait to start another round of training with her!”
— Nikki S.
“I started working with Miriam about 10 months ago. I had tried a few other online training coaches and I was not happy with them. I found Miriam on instagram and I found her positive attitude and passion for her industry contagious! I immediately reached out to her and I set up my first month of training. After that month I knew I was going to be a long term client! I previously had been very intimidated walking into the gym and within a few months of working with Miriam I saw major changes and I felt so much more comfortable and confident in the gym. The workouts are the perfect combination of the necessary compound exercises but she keeps them fun and changes them up to keep me interested! I always send her videos to make sure my form is correct and she responds with any cues I need to improve my form! In the past I had struggled with coaches telling me I couldn’t eat things and I could never drink alcohol and wanted me to keep track of everything I ate. This lead to really negative feelings about eating for me and made me obsessed with the calorie tracker. Miriam has solved all of that for me. I am the most fit I have ever been and I am still eating and drinking the things I love with NO guilt!! I am so grateful to have found a flexible and passionate coach who meets me where I am! ”
