There have been hundreds of clients who have experienced success with Basics and Beyond over the years. Here's what some of them have to say:

"I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am with my new body! My husband loves the way I look, and my friends are all wanting to know my secret!"
--Christina Himmelwright
Wife and mother.

"I had worked out with numerous trainers in the past, but because of health concerns, I needed serious help with diet and exercise. I began working with the crew from Basics and Beyond, and now I'm 65 lbs. lighter and in the best shape of my life!"
--Ron York
Artist, Local Color Gallery.

"As I neared retirement, I realized that I wouldn't stay strong and healthy without help. Thanks to my trainer, I can now regularly drive the ball over 225 yards off the tee at age 72! There is no question that the improvements to my health (and my golf game!) are directly related to my exercise program. Thank you!"

--Robert Richie, M.D.
Professor Emeritus of Surgery, Vanderbilt University
Co-Medical Director of Tennessee Organ Donor Tissue Services

"I thought my career was over due to nagging injuries and a decline in my athletic abilities. I had all but resigned myself to never competing again until I started working with Dan. Thanks to his expert help and guidance, I haven't felt this good in 15 years! And I'm winning again! He is truly gifted in his profession."

--Thay Butchee
Professional Tennis Registry 2003 International Men's Senior Champion
Tennis Pro, Belle Meade Country Club

"I had been through several trainers before finding the solution with Basics and Beyond! Thanks to my trainer Bill Nagel, I am in the best shape of my life and am motivated to maintain this forever! If you want to be your best, you have to train with the best, and that's Basics and Beyond!"

--Patti Hart Smallwood
2003 Steelplechase Co-Chair

"I strongly suggest to all my patients that they get professional help with their exercise program. We recommend Basics and Beyond to our patients because of their professionalism and high level of competency. Working out with Basics and Beyond is one of the best things I've ever done, and I wouldn't do it with anyone else!"

--Dr. Katie Haney
Obstetrician/Gynecologist

More praise for our personal trainers:

"I want to drop you a quick note to tell you how pleased I am with the amazing results I've been
getting since I began using both Anthony and Lara as my trainer and nutritionist. It would be
impossible to say enough about their talent, knowledge and awesome workouts!"

"The compassion for people really shows in the trainers that I saw
last night. It's exciting to know that no matter how much better I get, there
will always be something more challenging that you folks are going to come
up with. Exciting and a little frightening. But that's part of the fun of
life...getting out of the comfort zone and learning that MORE things are
possible than I sometimes think."

"I just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful personal training
service that Basic & Beyond offers, and a special thanks to you for
wisely pairing me with Sarah-Jane. She is terrific and delightful, and
she provides the perfect balance of motivation and challenge and
encouragement that I need. I'm proud of the progress I've made, and
it's great to feel like it's showing too!"

"I just wanted to let you know I met with Randy Pendergrass today. He is
just what I needed -- caring, understanding, a nutrition expert, great trainer,
and sweet and funny! Our session went really well, the hour flew so fast! He is
a really great trainer. So thanks so much for matching me with him."
