Doug is a great and knowledgeable trainer! A1 with the slight, but necessary adjustments that change the workout completely! He makes the workout specific to you and you goals, and even how you are feeling! Again extremely knowledgeable.

I have worked with Doug Bates for the past 14 years and have referred family, friends and clients who like me are interested in long term health and vitality! His positive guidance and encouragement have helped me lose and keep off 55 pounds while giving me the tools to create health.
Doug's expertise in all areas of whole body fitness are unmatched! He researches to find best practices for health - body (inside and out), mind, and soul.
I look forward to my "workouts" which are filled with movements to get me functionally fit, de-age me from the inside, and balance out my energies.
I highly recommend Doug Bates as a personal trainer and health and vitality expert!

"If your Personal Trainer offers you nothing more than what you can find on the internet or a set of moves without correcting your programming or extending your good programming, you get what you pay for!Instead....Think about giving yourself true value to find your own internal root causes for a truer reflection for your desired external look, function, or both.My intersection with this Wise & Truthful Sage was a collaboration for success beyond simply weight loss and body sculpting...(but of course, those happened, too)!With his knowledge and capabilities about the Truth of how our Energy works and your engagement with it, it is a recipe for success that extends well beyond just learning a new exercise move. From the basics of weight loss, fixing structural problems to more of your Truth & Value being discovered….apply for consideration soon, with Doug Bates, for this truly remarkable value-added Service & Collaboration."

I have been working with Doug for about 6 months and feel years younger. I no longer rely on my chiropractor to get me through the week. My workouts are perfect for my physical condition and level of experience. Doug Bates is a superior trainer. He shares his vast knowledge of nutritional information to help with your physical transformation. My body and mind are much stronger; I've lost weight and feel great. Thank you DougA Heintz, 54 years young and looking forward to my best years to come.

Doug is truly one of a kind personal trainer. In over 3 years of training, I have not repeated the same workout twice. He always listens to my body and gives me the appropriate exercises for my body on that particular day. At just one workout a week he has transformed my body on the physical, mental and emotional level. Doug has been a great blessing in my life and I look forward to our continued partnership.

"Let me start by saying, as my trainer for over a decade now: "Doug Bates is a prolific Truth seeker of a Noble Profession for living in a body !"More than a Personal Trainer, he is an Energy Guru whose own Energy is palpable and evident both internally and externally.He is definitely well ahead of the curve and beyond.From his over 25+ years of experience and client hours of what we call Personal Training, Doug Bates will help you break down old programming that does not serve you - and is likely unwittingly "holding your body's health hostage"!Admittedly, it is not always a comfortable process,......but neither is the disease, premature aging, or unwelcome weight gain.Real challenges being met are needed for your growth, life force, and vitality into the passage time.It has been my experience from his coaching and consultation over the last several years, if you’re not ready for direct, straight talk with compassion then do not apply here. However, you want this type of Personal Trainer and Warrior on your side.Simply put, It is a rewarding process to obtain what you truly need & desire."

Getting fit doesn’t happen with one visit. I’ve been going 2-3 times a week for the last 5+ years to undo 50+ years of physical labor and a toxic environment.
Never the same. Simple yet effective. BEST thing that I could EVER do for myself.
