LKN Fitness Specialists Personal Trainers - Personal Training & Group Fitness / Exercise Classes

Fantastic experience: My experience at LKN Fitness Specialists has been great! As a newbie to weight training, it was important to me to find a trainer that would be patient and kind as I learned, and also push me to work harder when I need it. My trainer Jayme has done exactly that! The whole team at LKN are welcoming and enjoyable to be around. I highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Lake Norman Fitness. My personal trainer, Chase, is fantastic. Not only is he knowledgeable but is willing to push you and is very patient and kind.

Fantastic experience: I've been training at LKN Fitness for over 7 months now. I have worked out for many years and did a deep search before I found LKN Fitness Specialists. I am an avid cyclist and strength training is very important to me especially as I age. The trainers here are very knowledgable as well as personable. They are very focused on form and execution with each exercise. The facility is well organized and has all the needed equipment to get a great workout. I love that they focus on my fitness as well as nutritional goals.

Fantastic experience: I'm recovering from recent surgery and the awesome folks at Lake Norman Fitness Specialists have been instrumental in helping me regain my core strength. I have a long way to go, but I know I am in excellent hands. The trainers are incredibly encouraging and I have quickly transitioned from feeling anxious about training to actively looking forward to each session. I am profoundly grateful to have discovered LKN Fitness Specialists!

Fantastic experience: I just finished my first month working out at Lake Norman Fitness Specialists, and have really enjoyed the workouts and the atmosphere. My trainer, Andrew, is knowledgable and approachable - I appreciate that he can help me with getting correct form and movements, but also explains the exercises to me so that I know what I'm doing and understand the science of it. All of the trainers are friendly, and I like that they seem to support each other and share ideas and information. The space is great, with a huge variety of equipment. I love that the big garage door can be opened when the weather is nice - the fresh air is awesome during a challenging workout!

Fantastic experience: I have been training at LKN for a little over a month now. The facility has all the equipment necessary for a great workout and it is also very well-kept. The trainers are all very personable and knowledgeable. During my first free session I discussed my goals, previous training history, injuries, and medical history with my trainer, Chase, and went through the movements in a typical workout. The workouts have been challenging and Chase has helped ensure that I keep good form during the movements. During my workouts there are usually just a couple other people training, but there is ample space in the gym to accommodate this. I have noticed people of all ages and abilities coming to LKN and believe it certainly deserves a shot to win you over if you are considering personal training. I highly recommend LKN.

Fantastic experience: Great gym atmosphere. Knowledgeable and experienced trainers, strategically and conveniently located in Cornelius. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: I have been working with my current coach, Ron, for about a year and a half. With his guidance, I was able to slim down from 205lbs to 162lbs, build some lean muscle, and am currently in a size 32” pant and 40 jacket. For the first time ever in my life, I was able to deadlift 260lbs on the trap bar. I’ve moved weight around in the gym that over a year ago, I never dreamt I could. No matter where you are in your fitness journey, the Coaches at Lake Norman Fitness Specialists will be right there with you every step of the way! Leading, guiding, correcting, and encouraging you to become the best version of yourself!

Fantastic experience: I love working out at LKN. Fitness . Jayme is fantastic and is helping me reach my fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Lake Norman Fitness. A special shout out to trainers Ron and Chase. I’ve been working out with them for almost a month and am already seeing results in my strength and overall fitness. Thanks guys!

Fantastic experience: The staff is outstanding, always supportive with encouragement and a smile. My personal trainer, Chase, is amazing! He provides constant support, and pushes me to the limit. I am so happy with the results, and recommend this team without reservation!

Fantastic experience: I am so thankful for this group and especially for Ron. I’ve been going twice a week for a month and already I see a huge difference in my own fitness levels. It’s definitely an added bonus that Ron is right there with me cheering me on and using his knowledge to make sure I get the optimum workout without injury. So glad I found this place!

Fantastic experience: Since starting the online workouts at Lake Norman Fitness Specialists I have seen a definite improvement! Very knowledgeable staff that know how to program workouts

Fantastic experience: I have been with LKNFS going on two months now and I can honestly say I love going to the gym and I literally have never said that EVER. Previously, going to the gym felt chaotic, made me nervous, mustering up the motivation felt impossible, etc. Since I’ve joined LKNFS I look forward to going to my sessions with Chase! Everyone is so SO welcoming and friendly and truly want to see you succeed. I feel 1000% comfortable here and can always count on starting my day with a killer workout and some laughs along the way. I am so happy to have found this gym and am so thankful to be working with Chase! He’s been absolutely amazing, I feel like my goals are taken seriously, and more importantly I feel supported and motivated. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and always super helpful, and gives me an extra push when I need it. Cannot say enough good things about the gym and trainers, you guys are awesome! Thank you!!

Fantastic experience: Finally writing a review after going to LKFS and attending their small group classes for almost 8 years! Their attention to form is what keeps me coming back! Jonathon and his crew will make sure you do everything correctly so that you get the results you want and stay healthy in the process! You won’t find a better training atmosphere in the Lake Norman area!

Fantastic experience: LKN fitness specialists is awesome. They listen to what you want out of training and create personalized workouts to fit your wants and needs. The whole team is super welcoming and create a comfortable workout environment. Highly recommend them if you’re looking into personal training!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at LKN since November and the staff is excellent! My primary trainer is Ron who is amazing and I’ve seen great results in spite of my busy schedule. Without Ron keeping me accountable I’d not have made the progress I’ve made in 6 short months. Excellent trainer and environment all around.

Fantastic experience: I've been training with Chase and Ron for the past 2 months and I can honestly say both trainers are excellent. Jonathan, the owner, has a great team around him. I recommend you give them a try if you're looking for a positive change in your health and well-being.

Fantastic experience: This review is long overdue. If you are looking for trainers that will take your health and fitness as seriously as you do, this is your place. I have been to several other facilities and trainers over the years and couldn’t commit to any. Based on a friend’s recommendation I went to Lake Norman Fitness Specialists. Now, I could not imagine going anywhere else. Jonathan and his team are always focused on, and dedicated to the overall wellness of each client. They have adapted every workout/session to fit my physical condition at the time. This has not changed in my 6 years of working out at LNFS. I am stronger and in better physical health than I have ever been. Thank you all for your attention, your commitment, and enthusiasm that keep each workout fun!

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a place to work out with knowledgeable, friendly, caring, and personable staff, this is the place. All the trainers are enjoyable to work with and are respectful when correcting your form. There are plenty of options to choose from for personal fitness or group classes. I can't think of a better place to help myself stay healthy and fit while enjoying myself at the same time.

Fantastic experience: This place is fantastic and every single staff member is truly great. My fiance and I are just about finished with our first month. Neither one of us has ever enjoyed going to the gym, but we're trying to get in better shape for our wedding. We've been working nearly exclusively with Chase, who is awesome. We told him at the beginning that we wanted to work hard, but also enjoy it. We've never enjoyed the gym, as we said, so making it fun would keep us coming back. Chase and Ron and everyone there have a way about them that makes you want to work hard for them. We're still waiting for the visual changes to appear, but we're already feeling better physically and mentally. Join this place. You won't regret it.

Fantastic experience: LNS has been fantastic. They designed a set of diverse exercises to address lingering injuries and my interest in golf and hiking. In three weeks I have noted marked improvement. Already feeling more flexible and stronger. Very encouraging staff and I always look forward to my workouts. I plan to keep working with them to gain strength, balance and flexibility for more adventures. I am retired and 68 years old. The staff recognizes my fitness level and always has a great set of exercises designed for me.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been with Jonathan and his team for over 5 yrs. If your looking for a small environment that’s comfortable and encouraging I highly recommend Lake Norman Fitness Specialist. The personal attention and knowledge they have is amazing. They know my issues with my neck and are always there to give their input on my form as to not aggravate my issue. I love the small group training and their attention to details. It’s a really nice atmosphere too. Give them a try!!

Fantastic experience: The trainers and staff at LKN Fitness have been incredibly welcoming and thoughtful in their approach to fitness and wellness. Trainers are both knowledgeable and approachable. The facilities are clean and environment is laid back. It’s really a wonderful business with even better people. A huge bonus is having Total Core physical therapy located inside, if you run into any issues while training your PT is located in the gym and can speak with your trainer to further tweak your workouts and better serve you! If your looking for a new place to train, this is it.

Fantastic experience: I love working out with Jenn. She is incredibly knowledgeable and is wonderful at adjusting the workout if you have any health issues. She truly cares for those she trains.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Ron for about 4 more months now. Everyone here has such great energy, very knowledgeable and they all want to see you reach your goals! If you are looking for the best trainers in the area, then look no further. LKN fitness is the place to go!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working with Ron for about six months. He always challenges me with my workouts and is mindful of any limitations I may have. Although I am working hard I always have a good time. I am 74 years old but feel much younger and continue to grow stronger.

Fantastic experience: I have known Jennifer Magnuson for almost 10 years and started training with her again at LKN Fitness over a year ago. She is amazing! She's constantly challenging you to reach your max potential while customizing group workouts to achieve everyone's personal needs. The overall atmosphere at LKN is comfortable and inviting. Make sure to check them out! There is something there for everyone.

Fantastic experience: I finally connected with a place where the trainers are knowledgeable and engaged in the process of improvement! I have lower back issues and feel that my workouts are well customized to my needs. I’m already seeing improvements in just a few months and intend to keep going for the foreseeable future. Thanks Ron!! Cheers!!!

Fantastic experience: LKN Fitness offers the intimacy of the space without the chaos or crowding of a large gym, in addition to personalized training starting from wherever you are today with the goal of wellness, whether it be weight loss, strength, cardiovascular fitness or physical recovery from an injury. I have personally worked out with Jenn Magnuson (WellFit) for many years in a semi-personal group format and cannot recommend her highly enough. She is friendly, energetic, and always encouraging while simultaneously challenging you to make incremental progress towards a stronger and healthier you.

Fantastic experience: I have been working out with Jenn Magnuson now for over 5 years. I started with her after a major surgery when I need to rehab and ensure that I cared for my healing process....and she helped me do just that! I love her enthusiasm and passion for the workouts! She crafts each program with care thinking through what you need in each session.

Fantastic experience: LKN Fitness is a great place to workout! Jennifer Magnuson is an excellent trainer! She is very knowledgeable about muscle groups and spends time in each group workout to make sure form is not overlooked. She really takes the time to listen to her clients and even makes adjustments during a group workout to help clients with injuries or weaknesses.

Fantastic experience: I have been working out at LKN Fitness Specialists Personal Trainers for over a year. Jonathan runs a top notch facility with very experienced trainers. My trainer is Jennifer Magnuson with Wellfit. I participate in group training sessions which are specific to my needs as a senior. I have had a knee replacement and reverse shoulder replacement and Jennifer tailors my program to avoid any further injury.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I have been working out with Jonathan and team for a few months and it’s been great! They offer multiple options and we’ve done both workout classes in a group setting as well as 1 on 1 sessions. Would definitely recommend LKN Fitness Specialists whether you’re looking to get back in the gym or looking to change up your fitness routine! Friendly, clean, and productive place to train.

Everyone is extremely friendly and professional, and they clearly work as a team to support their clients. They’ve been very attentive to my unique needs, which makes me feel like I’m getting the right kind of support.

Fantastic experience: I was looking for an accountability partner to push me and keep me consistent with working out. I found that with LKN Fitness Specialist PT. I mainly work with Ron - he is very personable and keeps you engaged with every workout session. In between strength training sessions, he holds me accountable with check ins to make sure I’m staying on track with healthy meals and cardio sessions at home. I really do feel that this team cares and wants to help me reach my personal goals!

Fantastic experience: I've been training with Jennifer Magnuson in group sessions for 7 years and have to say that the progress I've made is amazing! She analyzes your health and goals and translates you needs to customize the group workout to what will work for you. I am stronger and overall more fit than I was 7 years ago! LKN Fitness is an intimate and comfortable space to train in. It has anything you can think of to keep your workouts fresh and interesting. Try them out. You will not be disappointed!

Fantastic experience: Love LNFS! Jonathan and Jayme are great to work with! They listen to me and adjust my workouts accordingly (rather than a one size fits all approach). I’ve been doing one on one training and like the personalized attention but there are some group classes if that’s your thing. I’m just getting back after a long hiatus and they’ve met me where I am. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I have only been going for just over a month and have noticed tremendous results!

Fantastic experience: I've been a client for over three years. My chiropractor recommended LKN Fitness as I have had several injuries and have to be really careful when I work out. Every time in the past when I've worked with a trainer or done a class, I've been injured. Jonathan is very careful and gives me a good workout. He really knows his stuff. We started out slowly and moved ahead as I was able. He also works with athletes and he knows how to train them too! Whatever your fitness needs, the trainers at LKN Fitness will take care of you.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working with Jonathan at LKN Fitness Specialists for over three years. Prior to working with him I was dealing with frequent back pain.

I highly recommend this gym as it has been one of the best decisions I’ve made.

Fantastic experience: I never thought I would be so strong and fit and enjoy exercising! I'm probably in the best condition I've ever been (and I'm a senior!) thanks to the experienced professional trainers here. I moved to the area 6 months ago, and researched several places before committing to LKN. Very impressive staff, small class sizes (4-5), and they watch your every move and correct you when needed. Great personal attention. Lots of people call themselves 'personal trainers' these days, but Jonathan and his staff are all certified, qualified, experienced, dedicated - and nice to be around! Each day is a different workout. Love the variety. Always look forward to my next class.

Fantastic experience: I have been training at LNFS for over 3 years. I have always exercised regularly but had never trained with weights. Jonathan and his staff are certified trainers that really know what they are doing and have taught me the correct way to workout, correcting form mistakes and preventing injury. Jonathon is also great at adapting the workouts to my individual needs. I have been dealing with hip issues due to scoliosis . Jonathon and Mike have helped me with exercises that targeted the problem and improved my mobility. I definitely recommend Lake Norman Fitness Specialists!
