Fantastic experience: I have been training with Clinton for over 15 years and I am the same huge fan of him after all these years. Clinton is a gem: smart, knowledgeable, and funny. Not only did Clinton help me reach my goals but he went beyond my expectations. From the onset, he helped me build a stronger core and upper body. My posture and strength improved so much over the years that I never felt any pain even though I spend most of my time behind a desk. Thanks to him, throughout the years, I was able to practice new sports without getting injured. Clinton really knows how to challenge a person while providing a very safe approach to training. I never get tired of training with Clinton who renews himself constantly and brings new exercises to our personal training sessions week after week, year after year. My whole family has benefited from training with Clinton: my mother who took classes with Clinton when she was in her 70s, my husband who got hooked to personal training with Clinton 10 years ago, and my son who started training as a teenager and continues to seek advice from Clinton. Clinton has made such a positive impact to our health and well-being that we could not imagine life without him!

Fantastic experience: Have worked with Clinton and his company for years. Their approach to fitness and being an accountability coach is amazing. They work with you, your needs, and make the best fitness program for you. They aren't a typical cookie cutter fitness gym. Thank you Clinton!

Fantastic experience: Clinton is a sweetheart, a big mountain of a man with a kind heart, infectious laugh and tons of knowledge of nutrition, fitness and training. He will optimize the time you spend in the gym no matter what your goals are! Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I've been coming to this private gym for about a month or so now, but have been training with one of the personal trainers, Kelli, for a few years. Kelly has been the best personal trainer I've had. Clinton seems to be a great trainer as well. I haven't personally taken a class with him yet, but he has a wealth of knowledge and has some awesome workouts. If you're looking for a small private gym with some small group or personal training sessions, give these guys a call.

Fantastic experience: I've been coming to this private gym for about 5 or 6 months now, but have been training with one of the personal trainers, Kelli, for several years. Kelly has been the best personal trainer. I would actually call her more of a "life coach". She has really been helpful, both pre- and post-pregnancy, with strength training, weight loss, and diet control. She's also great about helping me find balance in my work and personal life, she encourages me to meditate, amongst other things. Clinton seems to be a great trainer as well. I still haven't taken classes with Clinton, but he is great to talk to, very knowledgeable and gives his clients great work outs. I will say this every time, if you're looking for a small gym and a more personal experience, call these guys. I love them and can't recommend them enough.

Fantastic experience: My personal trainer, Clinton Morris, at Evolve Fitness is the reason I can walk up and down my stairs many times a day without pain in spite of having osteoarthritis in my knees. His training has strengthened me and given me a much broader range of motion than many people my age! (63) His extensive knowledge of anatomy and dealing with joint injuries has helped me through some rough times. He has found creative and individualized ways for me to exercise through these injuries and help me get better! I love the smaller (but well equipped) gym compared to the huge mega gyms. Most clients exchange at least a greeting as they come and go as we usually recognize each other-so a more friendly atmosphere than most. I highly recommend this trainer and gym! Tess Markus P.S. My husband would tell you that Clinton's training has changed his life!

Fantastic experience: I have trained with Clinton for 15 + years. The consistent regimen has allowed me to overcome some physical issues while continuing my varied activities including climbing and hiking. Professional and engaging that keeps you in the groove over time.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been doing by personal training with Clinton for more than 10 years. He is one of the best trainers I have come across both in his knowledge of the human body, but also in his demeanor and professionalism. He has helped me many a times to deal with the pains and aches that come naturally from engaging in sports. I would highly recommend him!

Fantastic experience: I sought out a personal trainer as a last ditch, Hail Mary attempt to regain some strength and mobility after a severe spinal condition that culminated in surgery where I had my spinal cord untethered and portions of three vertebrae removed. My neurologist said I would never be able to carry anything heavier than a purse. Physically, my situation was pretty hopeless. Clinton listened to my sad story with compassion and immediately got to work helping me regain my ability to do simple things like get up and down off the floor. We strengthened the severed muscles along my spine with safe conservative exercises and my pain decreased within weeks. Building on this success, Clinton has worked with me week after week gently pushing at the boundaries of what I can do and I am proud to say I can now deadlift 220 pounds! That’s a lot for a girl who would only ever be able to lift a purse. Because of Clinton at Evolve Fitness, I have my life back. Since training with him I have resumed hiking, running, yoga and have even joined in Cross Fit challenges. I have regained the ability to do all the basic skills I’d lost - like standing on one foot, jumping etc. and I am now one of the strongest people I know.

Fantastic experience: Clinton is not your average muscle head trainer people. His overall focus on health and wellness along with fitness makes him the perfect fit for those of us trying to regain ( or extend ) our prime of life a little beyond what the conventional wisdom might afford. He a master of all of the things... stretching, range of motion, balance and agility... that make getting those "beach" muscles without getting hurt a breeze and a blast.
