Incredible Workouts! Incredible People! Incredible Results

by shorby at Citysearch

I have known Carla for over 15 years. I am constantly amazed at how knowledgeable, skilled, and ahead of the times she always is in the area of fitness and personal training. She has high expectations of the other trainers in the studio as well. Your specific needs are focused on, and with your trainer's help, you will reach your goals and beyond. The studio is well set up with a wide array of equipment. There are private one on one sessions, small group workouts, classes, and events available. Once you start Outrageously Fit you will wonder why it took you so long!

• Pros: personal, individualized, small group, relaxed, friendly

Amazing personal training

by jgdean14 at Citysearch

I have been a client of Carla's for almost 6 months and the results have been outrageous! The facilities are intimate and clean and they have everything needed for a complete workout. Carla assessed my initial situation and tailored a program that fit my goals. She is great to work with and I have never had the same workout twice. I always leave feeling tired and feeling good. I really like the focus on the basics of strength building, core exercises and aerobic training. After 4 months I lost 12 pounds of fat and gained 4 pounds of muscle and I can’t describe the change in attitude I have about my own body image. I’ve visited the new LA Fitness down the block and left starry-eyed at the facilities but the personalized training regimen I receive from Carla could never be duplicated there.

• Pros: Relaxed atmosphere, detailed personal training

If you want to concentrate on body scupting, this is the place

by racutis at Citysearch

I had the pleasure of meeting up with Carla Quam after reading a testimony from the O.F. website of a skinny 55 year old male who got results. Naturally, I quickly signed up and started training hard under Carla. I have trained off and on over the years but with Carla, I got noticable results in about 12 weeks and I even had coworkers, who I do not normally work with, ask if I've been working out. Generally, the training is one-on-one with, at times, no other trainer in the gym. I will be a returning customer!

No more excuses!

by daveandcarlene at Citysearch

We first met Carla nearly 8 years ago through a referral from one of her clients. Approximately 5 years ago, we started working out together with Carla twice weekly as a way to spend time together while doing something that was beneficial for our physical health. We had tried gym memberships in the past, however, consistently found that a membership provided for too many easy excuses for skipping workouts. We found that Carla consistently monitors our progress from session to session and helps us meet our individual goals. One of our favorite aspects of working out with a personal trainer is that you never repeat the same workout twice! After 5 years of workouts, Carla still has the ability to push us to the point of exhaustion while having fun and providing encouragement when necessary. Working out at Outrageously Fit is never boring!!

• Pros: Personalized service, friendly trainers

Carla kicks your butt without crushing your soul

by jbsterling at Citysearch

I've spent the last year working out with Carla Quam, a trainer and co-owner of Outrageously Fit and it has been some of the best spent time of my life. My original goals were to provide my wife with good "arm-candy" and to get into shape for our newborn's sake (my exercise and eating habits weren't going to exactly extend my life by any means...)

Carla quickly took stock of my goals as well as my general physical and dietary condition and with a minimum of poking and prodding, has driven me to losing half of my body fat (in a good way) and after a year can still send me home exhausted (also in a good way).

Like Carla, the studio is small, clean and lively. The things (besides work & general laziness) that kept me away from the gym in the past, was that when I tried other clubs I felt fat, weak and confused from the second I got there and on the flip side, working out at home never panned out as I never could tell if I was doing it right, nor was I willing to really push myself regularly.

That's one of the biggest reasons I was so thrilled that my wife found Carla and Outrageously Fit for me. The staff schedule things so that you never feel overwhelmed or boxed in and this is definately NOT a meat-market environment, this is a serious facility where people have goals to meet, and enjoy the time they spend working out. The people there are motivated and it rubs off - you have one-on-one attention and with Carla you really feel like your success matters to her.

The long and short of it is thus: fun, friendly trainers in a low pressure environment who figure out what you need and then get you to do it. It's great.

Best Trainer

by tmcburney at Citysearch

Outrageously Fit is an excellent personal training studio - they help people accomplish all types of goals, from weight loss, to muscle building, to marathon training. All of the staff are great but hands down Amy Woods is the best trainer we've ever worked with. She helps you quantify your goals and then develops a plan to help you achieve them. Her sessions are tough but fun and never boring - she constantly changes the exercises and order so that you're body is continually challenged. You are working hard each session but she also knows when to ease up or when to push your harder - the hour session goes by before you even know it. In addition, she is such a great person to be around, always fun, always energetic. We would highly recommend Amy and Outrageously Fit to anyone interested in improving their health and achieving their goals.

• Pros: Great value for services, fantastic staff, wide range of hours, personalized development

Totally outrageous!!!

by suseequ at Citysearch

My husband and I have Amy Woods as our trainer. What a gal she is. She's tough, and that is good, but she is also very compasionate and understanding. I told her my goals and she has worked on every one of them. I have never been as fit as I am now - both phsically and mentally. I am 65 and she is aware pf my phsical limitations. I also have Type II diabetes, She is always keeping track of what I a eating, which makes me accountable to eat good food. I owe her a ton of gratitude for what she is doing for me. Seeing Amy is the best thing I have ever done! You rock girl!!

• Pros: Casual and friendly atmosphere
• Cons: Parking not adequate

"Try It, You'll Like It"

by robtoandsuej at Citysearch

We have been clients of the studio for apprx. 18 months now. We find them to be exactly what they advertise. Our trainer, Amy Woods, spent a whole lot of time with us getting aquainted and finding out what our goals were and what we hoped to accomplish. She has never waved from helping us reach those goals. She is very, very good at what she does. She is fair but she is tough, tough in a good sense. That being, her primary goal is to help us reach our goals. Without reservation I can highly recommend Outrageously Fit Personal Training Studio in general and Amy in paticuliar. Amy makes us feel just plain good about outselves. She truly cares about her clients. 'Try Them, You'll Like Them'. They truly care about you.

Oh yes, we're both senior citizens, I'm 70 and my precious wife is 65. We've never felt better, physically or mentally. Thanks Amy, You Rock

Best fitness & training

by nunofurbzwax at Citysearch

My partner and I have been working with Amy for one and a half years. We are middle aged women who wanted to get in better shape. Thanks to Amy's help we exceeded our expectations. Our workouts are varied and pinpoint our unique needs. Ambiance is casual & all ages & body types are made to feel welcome; the environment is relaxed and unpretentious.. We find Amy to be extremely knowledgeable & responsive. Muscular thumbs way up!

My trainer is the best

by a_l_z07 at Citysearch

I've been going to Outrageously Fit for over 5 years now and I am so happy with the trainer I have. Carla knows exactly what to do to get the results I want. Initially I was going to see a trainer for a few months but I enjoy it so much that I've continued for years! I've watched other trainers there and I can see why this place is so popular - they're all great with their clients. It's a very comfortable environment and it's fun (as they say). I highly recommend Carla or any of the trainers there!

• Pros: Nonintimidating environment and quality trainers
• Cons: Can get busy in the evenings so parking can be difficult - but it is the city - parking is bad everywhere!
