I can’t even begin to say how much working out with Camie has changed my life. I never thought I’d be that person that craves exercise and loves how it makes me feel, but I am. I am living a healthy life and it would not have been possible without all of Camie’s help. I still remember the moment I sat down with my now husband, Mike, and told him I wanted to try something different for my workout routine. I was coming out of my first year of grad school where I was super stressed and had little time for working out or figuring out how to eat healthy, so I’d gained some weight. I was sick of my weight increasing and I knew at some point I would need to fix something so that the numbers on the scale didn’t continue to go up the rest of my life. I’d tried other things in the past (triathlon class at UNR and running with Mike after work among many other things) and hadn’t been able to stick with any of it for a very long period of time or push myself to get past my comfort zone to get results and I just felt it was time for a change.

The first time we walked into the gym, Camie came bouncing and skipping up to us to introduce herself and her energy was just catching. At the time, I felt that I only had a couple of inches to loose and maybe tone up a little here and there. I thought I was just a naturally bigger person with an overweight BMI because I had been that way since early high school. I could never have imagined how much I would improve my strength, my endurance, and my health working out with Camie. I started out participated in a challenge with my husband where I lost 13 inches and nine pounds. We kept training with Camie so that I wouldn’t backslide on the progress I made and I continued to see amazing results.

Camie doesn’t just provide the physical training knowledge (though she does an amazing job at that), she helps push and support her clients, both inside the gym and in their lives. She has always been there to answer questions I have about fitness and nutrition. She posts numerous fitness and nutrition tips online and in her newsletters (that she makes and gives out for free, because she wants to). You can always tell that she is doing her job because she has a passion for helping people to live a healthy life style and it makes you want to be that person she knows you can be. She encouraged and pushed me to set my first goal in October of losing one pant size by Christmas. It was a very doable goal, but at the time I had never set a goal with a time limit (actually, I don’t think I had ever set a goal and met it period) and I was terrified that I would let myself (and Camie) down. But she believed in me, and that gave me the courage to state my goal out loud to myself and to others and to work towards it. I remember when I tried on a pair of pants when I lost a size and how incredibly proud and happy I felt. After that, I had the confidence to set even higher fitness goals for myself and Camie encouraged me, pushed me, and helped me believe that so many things were possible.
I was also able to alleviate some of my insane wedding stress through workouts. I’m pretty sure I would have been driven to insanity if I didn’t have that outlet leading up to the wedding. Instead, I had a lot of fun bonding with my now husband during our workouts (he came with me). And when my family came in town the two weeks before the wedding, they came and also worked out with me. It made for such a fun bonding experience, having them all join me at a five am class and see what kind of butt kicking I have come to really enjoy. I will never forget that.
Since I started working out with Camie a little over a year ago, my life has changed in so many ways. I’ve lost a lot of inches and three pants sizes (I’m down into single digit clothes sizes, which I never thought I’d see). I’ve also gotten down to a healthy BMI and a healthy body fat percentage. I have more energy every day, which is an incredible feeling, and I have started participating in more activities. I ran two 5k races this year and an urban adventure race (before working out with Camie I had never run more than one mile, seriously). The best part is I bought my wedding dress before I started working out and I bought it a little on the small size at the time, figuring I’d lose some weight. I had to have it taken in two inches on each side and I looked the best I’ve ever looked in my life on my wedding day for all my photos. I knew that I would never regret getting in shape for my wedding, but I would always regret not getting in shape. And I am so incredibly proud and happy with my results and I know I would not be where I am today without all of Camie’s help. She is seriously so amazing and working out with her is one of the best things I have ever done.

Wow, where to start?! I've known Camie now for about 3 years. I started going to her with a friend of mine just to get in shape. I'll never forget the first time I met her, I stuck out my hand to shake hers and she basically smacked my hand away (not literally!) and gave me the biggest, most warm and welcoming hug ever! From then on, I knew she would be an amazing person to have in my life as a friend, idol and mentor!

When I got engaged in May of 2010 I knew right then that Camie was the only person in this town that I trusted to make me look PERFECT on my special day. She is the most positive, uplifting, kind-hearted person out there. She truly cares about you, your results and how you feel about yourself. She'll get you right on track with your eating, always providing weekly menus and new recipes! If you have a question or concern, BAM, she's there with loads of info and incite! 

I was SO happy with the way I looked on my big day! Go see Camie and she'll have you saying "I CAN, I WILL" all day, every day!

After getting engaged and trying on Wedding Dresses I quicky realized that I was not happy with the way my body looked and of course like any bride, wanted to look the BEST I could for my special day. Several friends recommended Camie Cragg to help me look and feel better. When I contacted Camie her genuine enthusiasm and desire to assist me with any and every goal I had was very refreshing. I started small group personal Training With Camie for a minimum of 3 days a week for 6 months. She pushed me positively and was available night and day for all of my nutrional questions & motivations. I looked and felt GREAT for my wedding and now that I am pregnant with my second child she continues to motivate me to be a hot and healthy Mom!
