Basics and Beyond fitness & nutritionReviews of gettingfit.com

I am in my early eighties and have had several health challenges over the past two years. As a result I have lost lots of strength and stamina. To regain what I have lost I have sought several different remedies i.e., chiropractors, physiotherapy, personal trainers, etc. Nothing has compared with what I have gotten at Basics and Beyond. I have great hope that I will regain my strength and be able to fully resume my heretofore very active life. Thank you Dan DiFigio.

Dan DeFigio figured out that I needed core stabilization training after nearly 20 years of chronic right-sided low back, buttock, hip, and pelvic pain. During those years, I saw numerous sports medicine physicians, orthopedists, and chiropractors and completed at least three intensive courses of physical therapy, yet nothing provided lasting relief. Dan was simply performing a courtesy evaluation before I began his boot camp weight-loss program. I had mentioned my history of chronic low back and sciatic pain, and his evaluation led him to identify the underlying problem and recommend precise core stabilization exercises. That assessment and his guidance changed my life in ways I could never have anticipated. Not only did my chronic pain finally resolve, but I was able to return to the activities I loved and exercise at a level I had not been able to before — including running, hiking, dancing, weightlifting, mountain biking, and HIIT, etc. His approach also enabled me to lose weight and, more importantly, maintain that weight loss. I am deeply grateful for all the years I have been able to exercise, stay active, and live healthily without chronic pain because of Dan’s help. I recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone struggling with chronic pain, difficulty exercising, or weight-management challenges — particularly those who have sought help from multiple medical providers without finding an answer. What sets Dan apart is his ability to look at the body as an interconnected system rather than simply focusing on the location of the pain. He is exceptionally skilled at identifying underlying movement, strength, and stability problems that may be overlooked by others, and then developing practical exercises to address the root cause. I will always be grateful that a seemingly simple evaluation with Dan ultimately gave me back a life of movement and vitality without chronic pain. Thank you, Dan!

We've been seeing Libby for over a year. We're her only clients that go as a couple. We have a good time and she scales the exercises accordingly. Apparently it's not for every couple, but we have a good time, and it's a bit cheaper than going separately. And my wife sees her a second time each week without me!

Libby is absolutely amazing! She always works with me and truly understands how to push me in the best way. I’m in the best shape I’ve ever been in thanks to her, and she’s made me actually look forward to working out — something I never thought I’d say! She’s so kind, knowledgeable, and motivating. Every session is personalized, challenging, and fun. I can’t recommend Libby enough — she’s the real deal!

I’ve been training weekly with Libby since New Years’ or thereabouts. Great experience in that she’s tailored the approach to my body type, age, and goals. We are doing a Jane Fonda style full-body workout, and I can testify to these results: my energy levels are up, my productivity at work rose, and my posture and balance have improved. I took a new height measurement during a physical and found that I’m even standing about half an inch taller than usual. Wow!

A few months ago, I decided to really focus on my health and get back on track. After a little bit of research, I decided I needed to go somewhere that could help me find a good routine from a previous injury I got in the gym 10 years ago. Working out has been difficult for the past few years but after a few months of going to basics and beyond, things have changed for me! I have been working out with Libby and she is amazing! Her workouts are challenging, fun, and different than anything I would do on my own. I feel like her workouts are worth every penny. Not only are the workouts great but she always makes me feel comfortable. It was very important for me to become confident and comfortable in the gym and working with Libby has helped me achieve that. I feel like I am also learning so much about working out and how to move your body to prevent injuries. Also, Dan is awesome! I was having a bit of back pain coming up (due to a previous injury) and he had been working with me to alleviate the pain. I feel like everyone at basics and beyond really cares about their clients. I am so happy to have found such a wonderful place to help me get my health back on track. Thank you Dan and Libby

I can’t say enough good things about Libby! She is thoughtful, engaging, knowledgeable, and very creative. The work outs are efficient and never boring. I have progressed a bunch and achieved my goals with her guidance. I always look forward to the sessions and can feel continuous improvement.
