Armstead Fitness

Fantastic experience: What a fun time but we "got that work"! Erick has every kind of fitness gadget out there. We work hard! First we do ab work, planks, russian twists etc. Then we box. 100, 200 or 250 punch sets: jab, jab, cross, body shots, fast hands, hammers etc... Last but not least we strength train with weights, ropes, balls, resistance bands, THE bike, skier. If you are coming back from an injury or surgery, he will watch you like a hawk to make sure you do everything correctly. Come see for yourself - I promise you will never be sorry!

Fantastic experience: Erick is a great teacher. I have been training with him for a little over two months now, and I can feel more strength in my arms. I can also feel improvement in my balance. When I am through with my half hour of training, I know that I have had a good workout! I highly recommend Rock Steady Boxing with Erick! Jim D

Fantastic experience: I was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease (PD) in January 2010. My primary symptoms are rigidity, freezing and balance issues. I have participated in various exercise classes since then as exercise is known to combat PD symptoms, with limited success. Erik is Rock Steady Boxing certified, which is a program specifically for people with PD. I have been working with Erik for two months and the results to this point are very encouraging! Overall, I have seen a reduction in my off times and am more confident in my ability to walk. I am jumping rope, which I haven't been able to do in several years.I feel extremely more confident in my balance and my strength has increased as well. He also has me doing cardio and core exercises. In addition, he uses a variety of exercises and equipment which help keep the workouts fun. Erik is client focused and very pleasant to work with, he always seems to have a smile on his face. He encourages me to do my best and get the most out of the exercises, but also recognizes when I have reached my limit.

Fantastic experience: Erick is the best! A friend recommended him because I wanted to build my upper body strength. I've been training with him for a month, and my transformation was immediate. Not only am I so much stronger, but my balance has improved and my stamina has exploded. The boxing has also helped me tap into the fighter deep inside me, and I'm moving through life with more confidence. Erick's energy is so positive, and I've been having a terrific time. I highly recommend Armstead Fitness... especially for women.

Fantastic experience: My father lives in Estero FL and consistently works with Erick multiple times / week and absolutely raves about his experience and how much fun he has! My dad has Parkinson's and Erick is doing wonders in terms of helping my dads physical and mental coordination stay strong! Although I don't have personal experience with Erick, I am very thankful for him as he is helping my dad a great deal. He's got an excellent outlook, is a first class coach, and great guy. Highly Recommended!
