Restoration Fitness & Nutrition

I’ve been involved with a lot of fitness facilities and methods in my 35 years of life. But Restoration has been by far the greatest coaching, eduction, and nutritional guidance I’ve ever received! And it’s one of the healthiest GYM environments I’ve ever worked out in!

They have created such an awesome friendly environment where everyone wants to see everyone succeed! I have gotten so much stronger since I’ve been there and my nutrition has improved so much! I have a much better relationship with food now than before! This is the best gym I’ve ever been apart of!

Addendum-April 2022: I'm still a member after 20 months and enjoying every minute of it. The new facility is great, the expanded coaching staff is excellent, and I enjoy watching all my classmates work towards their goal as I work towards mine. I will always need to modify many elements but fortunately the coaching staff always has an alternative for me. I couldn't ask for a better gym for my needs 😁In mid-October 2020 I made  a snap  decision one morning to find a gym, because I knew I had to do something drastic to improve my fitness. I also needed to stop my insidious weight gain that had been going on for a few years that I couldn't get a handle on by myself. I have a long history with gyms over the last 40 years, but they have all been larger, corporate ones- low cost, for sure, but not much guidance- and since I am now over 60, I recognize I need a more "hands-on" experience. The first gym that came up on my search for "gyms near me" was Restoration Fitness, owned by Matt and Cissie, and I absolutely haven't looked back.  In the last 7 months I have gone from being barely able to do a quarter squat to easily doing full squats; my muscle and joint aches are diminished, due to a heightened fitness level; and I have lost close to 30 lbs thanks to the nutrition guidance available to me.  Matt, as a coach, has been great for me because he is able to determine when I truly can't do something versus I simply am not trusting myself to accomplish the movement. I opt to do regular private training sessions with him, in addition to group workouts. He knows I truly enjoy weightlifting, so he designs workouts incorporating those elements in addition to cardio, which I appreciate. In Cissie I have found a nutrition coach who has great tips when I come up against something I am not quite sure how to handle, and she does a great job of watching over my shoulder to make sure I don't go off course. At my age weight loss is even a greater struggle than it ever was before, but I am within a few months of being the lightest I have been in 35 years, thanks to her guidance. The gym community itself is a mix of ages and personalities, from college students to some very fit former college athletes and even a few grandmas like me, which I love. At all times it is a fun group of people to workout with. And, of importance to me- absolutely a "no shame" zone; instead, we cheer on each other is the norm, as it should be.    If you are looking for a close, intimate environment full of people who are open and friendly but serious about their workouts, lead by an insightful trainer who has your best interests at heart, coupled with a nutrition coach who will walk side-by-side with you during your weight loss journey, this is your place.

I cannot rave enough about my experience here. My first meeting was with Matt and I told him I would need personal training from a female trainer as that is what I’m comfortable with. They went above and beyond for me and I was coached by Ciccie who was well into her own pregnancy at that time! I did a full body scan and she was so knowledgeable. We sat down and put together a 3 month plan to reach my goals and here I am 3 months later as happy as I could be. She set realistic expectations for me and she motivated me to work hard. She was always a text away for nutritional advice or exercise programs while I was on vacation. I felt at home. There was no gym anxiety going in, I felt prioritized and I have gained so much knowledge about nutrition. Ciccie also tracked my nutrients from MyFitnessPal and was tuned into me. That one on one attention was amazing. I couldn’t have asked for a better gym and better coaching! Also shoutout to the whole staff, they were so welcoming and kind throughout my journey! Thank you Restoration!!

Restoration Fitness & Nutrition has completely changed my life. Matt, Cis, and Josh have created an inviting environment where people at all fitness levels can come in and get a qualitu workout. Each workout is fun, challenging, and tailored to the individual. The coaches make sure each member is encouraged throughout and recieving the coaching that they need. Seriously such a great team, great atmosphere, and great group of members!I also do nutrition coaching with Cis, which has been monumental in my health journey. While activity is necessary, you can't outwork a bad diet. Cis has changed my outlook of food and I have become so much more knowledgeable about what I am putting in my body.I have lost 16 pounds in 4 months. I cannot recommend Restoration enough! Try it out, you won't regret it!

As a retired baby-boomer who wants to keep up with her young, active grandchildren, I came to Restoration Fitness seeking a customized program to help me get in shape while building muscle and bone mass. My distance from the gym and my erratic schedule did not lend themselves to the class format, but Matt was willing to work with me on creating a "remote" workout regimen with regular PTs to monitor my progress. He's customized a program to meet my abilities (i.e., zero athleticism!) while challenging me to increase strength and mobility. Thank you, RF, for inspiring and encouraging me to improve my overall fitness!

Matt & the Restoration crew have created a special gym environment that feels like family! The coaching & programing are challenging and have seen my fitness continue to improve. Happy to call this gym home.

If you want a gym with accountability, amazing coaches, uplifting environment, challenging and always fresh workouts, this is the place for you! This gym is more like family! I can’t say enough how much it is worth the investment to come here.. the return is huge in every area of your life!

I joined Restoration Fitness 2 months ago and I have had great results already. The whole team there is very knowledgeable and supportive. I look forward to more training and finally achieving the goals I have set for myself! I highly recommend Restoration Fitness!

Being a part of Restoration Fitness the last 3 months has truly been an incredible experience for me. I personally train with the owner Matt 3 times a week and also participate in nutrition counseling with his wife Cissie and the radical changes I have experienced in both my mind and body have been life changing. I have experienced significant strength gains across the board and have come to look forward to each session as the highlights of my week. I have achieved new levels of energy and confidence under their care that I haven’t had in 15 years. Matt and Cissie really care about each client they work with and they are deeply committed to helping people GROW in every area of their lives! If you are willing to put in the time and the work and LISTEN to the wisdom they have to give then your life will be changed just as mine is being changed!! Come join this community… you won’t regret it!!
