TD Athletes Edge

I went to TDAE after several years of battling multiple nagging injuries that kept me from training. One year in, and I’ve been injury-free the whole time! These folks know what they are doing!

I have been a member of almost every gym on the North Shore over the past 25 years, worked with many personal trainers, and tried every program out there. After many different friends recommending TDAE, I finally gave it a try, and I haven’t turned back!TDAE takes the best of everything and combines it into one. The trainers are top notch- knowledgeable, conscientious, caring, and fun! The workouts are challenging, completely customized to each individuals’ needs, safe, and always changing to keep things interesting.I have always been plagued by knee pain, and lower back pain, but when I am consistently going to TDAE these issues are almost completely resolved.I had so much success at TDAE that I also signed up my husband and my two high-school aged kids. We all get something completely different, but exactly what each of us needs.This summer my son was injured and unable to play any sports. His spirits were really low and he didn’t even want to leave the house. The team at TDAE put together a workout to keep him active while taking into account all of the limitations of his injury. They were so supportive and positive that my son really looked forward to coming and turned his summer around. Once he was cleared to play again he was able to get back quicker because of the work he had been doing at TDAE.I honestly can not recommend Tim and his team enough- we are so lucky to have this resource in our area!

As an older woman who wants to age with independence, I was seeking a facility where I could feel comfortable with strength training workouts. The professional trainers at TD Athletes Edge are always there to ensure that your customized workout is done correctly and safely.I could not be happier with my choice of working with the professionals at TD Athletes Edge!

I've been an avid exerciser my entire life, but finally feel like I've landed in a place where I am making progress on my strength like never before. I developed some health challenges a few years ago and was apprehensive about what exercise I could do. Tim and his team started me on a personalized plan and I have been slowly building back my strength over the last 2+ years. My coach Lucy writes me an amazing program that addresses all my needs/goals, and the coaches I work out with are all so skilled, friendly and professional. I consider myself a "lifer" at TD, I don't think I will ever go back to a traditional gym again!

TD Athlete's Edge - IS and will be your edge. Wether recovering from injury or driving toward peak performance the team at TD is awesome and is there to help, support, guide ... and deeply care.

I value my experience at TD Athletes Edge on so many levels:- As a lifelong fitness enthusiast- As a fitness coach, myself- As a client in recovery from 3 back surgeries including a spinal fusionI became a member at TD when I was 3 months post-spinal fusion (my third back surgery). Both my parents, in their 70s, and my husband were already clients who were having great experiences.The programming was safe and thoughtful as I was just able to begin lifting anything again. They didn’t let me push myself faster than was safe (even when I wanted them to!)In the two years since, Jess has coached me to a superior level of strength and fitness than I had pre-injury. Her expertise is unmatched and she individualizes my program based on my goals. She has taught me a tremendous amount about smart programming and technique, as well as the importance of de-loading and not overtraining, all of which have also made me a better fitness coach and instructor for my own clients.The atmosphere at TD is professional but always fun and light-hearted. All of the coaches are helpful and professional. Lucy, Gabe, Jess and Sarah are some of the best coaches I have worked with in over 23 years of training. I’m always impressed by the wide spectrum of clients, from elite competitive athletes to people who first started lifting weights in their 80s. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to benefit from strength training.

I have known Tim DiFransesco for close to 20 years. The TEAM at TDAE cares about you from the moment you enter the facility. First class customer service. First class programming detailed to your needs and goals. Anyone looking for a new approach to fitness should give TDAE a strong look. I’m glad I did!

TDAEdge is by far the most inventive personal training facility. I immediately felt a sense of belonging from the first moment I walked in and continue to experience.TD provides the utmost enthusiastic and engaging professional staff laser focusing on each client. This place is always impeccably clean with state of the art equipment.Tim is a powerhouse of knowledge and a true inspirational leader with upbeat positive energy that carries throughout his staff. Tim is an amazing diagnostician and a good listener as his optimal goal is to create a plan that is safe and right with only you in mind.

I LOVE TD Athletes Edge!! Why? In a word..RESULTS! I’m a 56 year old swimmer and since training with TD and his team I have had some of the best races of my life. I recently took 3 minutes off my time in a 1.2 mile open water swim and was on the podium!! Not to mention I finally reached my goal weight and have not had an injury. The trainers there are unbelievable!! So knowledgeable and nice. They really make it fun (and that’s saying something because I used to HATE strength training). I highly recommend it!!

I ran a marathon last year without incorporating comprehensive strength training. I’m currently in another marathon training block. Before working with TD Athletes Edge, I was dealing with pain in my ankles. In just 4 weeks the pain in my ankles has subsided while my mileage and intensity of running has gradually increased. I believe TDAE training directly attributed to my improvement. Additionally, I’ve learned a lot through the user friendly app TrueCoach that TDAE uses for virtual consulting. I’m very grateful to work with Tim Difrancesco, he’s a legend, I mean he worked closely with Kobe Bryant! As I an amateur amateur it’s amazing to get such detailed feedback and genuine encouragement.
