"For the past year, I have had the pleasure to be able to work with an incredible trainer, Troy, and his inspiring group of fitness enthusiasts. I’ve always been active and have done my best to live a healthy lifestyle but I found that as I got older, I started to get bored with my usual cardio and weight lifting routines. After attending my first Tru2Fitness boot camp, I knew this was a perfect fit for me. Troy’s workouts are challenging but fun at the same time. Troy does a wonderful job at meeting the needs of his clients and making everyone comfortable, as well as preventing injuries by correcting and improving our form.

Thanks to Tru2Fitness, I have been able to participate in 9 races this year, including 5K’s, 7K’s, 10K’s and "triathlons." My most recent accomplishment was a 10 man, 200 mile running relay from Cumberland to DC. I am 100% positive that Troy’s workouts have helped me reach these goals and I look forward to reaching more fitness goals with Troy and Tru2Fitness in my future." Hide

"I hadn't seen my friend Liz, for a while, so when we met in the cafeteria at work for lunch I couldn't believe how good she looked! She told me she had lost 20 pounds. When I asked her how she did it, she talked in glowing terms about this great personal trainer she had found named Troy Brown.

I had gained 22 pounds after being inactive from breaking my ankle a couple of years before, and no amount of dieting or walking was taking the excess weight off once my ankle had healed. I really needed help, and was so impressed with Liz's success that I had to meet Troy! Liz emailed me his phone number, I called immediately, and the following Monday I was in the gym working out. Me, in a gym?! I HATE gyms! But Troy made it so much fun that i kept on going back, and lost those pesky 22 pounds between July and December-- a healthy pace for weight loss! I have stayed the same weight in December-January, but that is an accomplishment, too, since I usually gain weight over the holidays and cold winter months. My next goal is to lose 10 more pounds, and who knows where I'll go after that!

Troy is keeping me healthy, fit, and I'm having a blast doing it. I'm sticking with it and even enjoy the gym, because Troy is so much fun to work with and he is so good with people. He never yells or embarrasses us like some other trainers do. He manages to motivate us without pushing us too hard that's a real talent! He knows what he is doing, give us great advice on nutrition and exercise, and in addition he is one heck of a nice guy! Update - I am now down "30 lbs." Woo hoo!!!" Hide

"New Years Eve 2010 spent contemplating New Years intentions not resolutions. The most important intention, embrace a healthy lifestyle. I have struggled with yo-yo weight gains and losses using various methods including conventional and fad diets. I knew the key lay in changing my relationship with food, regular exercise and ridding me of the diet mentality. My husband's death heightened my understanding that unhealthy lifestyle choices kill. We both had hypertension but neither made consistent changes to reduce our risk. I committed myself to reducing my risk with ultimate goal of controlling my hypertension with diet and exercise instead of medication.

I discovered Troy on facebook. He is a fellow Baltimore City College Alumni and graduated with my brother. I read the testimonials on his website and his advice on facebook. After spending much of January in a holding pattern, I decided to work with a personal trainer. I've worked with personal trainers in the past but never found a good fit. My experience with male trainers were specially not good. My last one was a chiropractic nightmare. Despite my history, I met with Troy to discuss his services and to vibe him. I immediately liked his approach to personal training which included learning my history and expectations. I've worked with a nutritionist and know what I should do, but lack discipline. His suggestions were inline with what I knew was sound nutritional advice, but I resisted protein shakes. I told him, I like to eat my calories.

Troy has a great way of shifting your perspective; I describe it like water dripping on a stone. I've worked with him for several months. Throughout these months, I've never dreaded a workout, altered my diet to include a daily protein shake and regular exercise. Troy assigns out of session tasks, checks in with you to make sure you stay on track and doesn't beat you up when you falter. It's an intense but relaxed workout session. The weight and inches are falling away and I am in the best physical condition of my life. I have significantly reduced my hypertension medication with normal range blood pressure. I hear myself say; I love that, but don't buy it because I'll eat to much. My goals are evolving but I know that I've found a great ally to help me reach them." Hide

"I was one to always make excuses about my weight due to my always being smaller when I was young, so once I became obese, excuses was the easiest way to deal with it. I found myself prescribed medications that do cause weight gain, which I knew when they were prescribed and I still decided I would sit and eat everything in site. I felt, well it is alright because I have to take my medication. As I became heavier and heavier, I noticed an old school mate was a FB friend of Troy's. I paid close attention to what she and Troy were commenting about and I decided to befriend him. I was thankful for, without my old classmate I would have never found Troy. After befriending him, I noticed he was really passionate about sharing his postings about healthy living and eating. To make a long story short, I kept sharing his information because I was unable to get to his location in Columbia, and prayed he would come to Baltimore. Finally someone paid attention and next thing I knew he was in Baltimore in the flesh. Troy is determined and that determination rubs off on his clients. He really shows us that he cares about us and our health. Plain and simple he is a great dedicated guy. I was embarrassed at first to come out due to my age and size, but he simply stated in a very caring tone, no worries Michon. Next thing I knew I was taking classes three times a week for 4 weeks and I have lost a total of 20 1/2 pounds. I still have a way to go, but health is key. I no longer find myself breathing and panting from a short walk. I truly have endurance and strength I have not had in a long time. You would be surprised at how much 20 pounds really is. Think about 3, five pound bags of sugar plus 5 1/2 pounds more. A very important lesson also learned is, we must eat healthy because starving is not going to make you keep the weight off even though you can lose weight that way, but as soon as you eat you will gain the weight again. I am blessed and suggest joining Troy's Fit Camp so you too can see what a difference it makes. Thank you so much Troy, for your guidance and your team who is truly dedicated to what you are doing. I will continue to share your information and keep doing what needs to be done to continue my new way of life.

Michon is still making progress. Down another 8 lbs to total 28 lost. Awesome! Keep up the great work, Michon!!" Hide

"Before I started Fit Camp, I thought I was in shape. Troy showed me that I wasn't where I thought I was. Now I feel good about myself. I'm not tired all the time, I've lost two pant sizes and am down one shirt size. Troy has put together an exercise program that is tailored to each person, individually. No matter what you're fitness goal he can guide you. He's also set me up with a "meal plan". I've even notice that I sleep better and I'm not exhausted during the day anymore. Big ups to my man Troy! You got a good thing going on. Just keep God first in everything you do. Thanks Troy!

Since I started going to fit camp with Troy Brown I've notice a change in my lifestyle. I eat healthier and I exercise more. I use to weigh 277 now I'm at 257. I've been going to fit camp since May 2012. I thought I was in shape until Troy showed me different. This camp is for all ages and all levels. Don't worry about not completing the exercise just do the exercise right. Its about form and technique! I truly recommend this class. I have developed friendships here, as well. So come on out and have fun!" Hide
