Find a Personal Trainer in Traverse City

I love fit for you. I’ve been to many gyms over the years but FFY has the best combination of staff, cleanliness, and education.

I was the kind of person who did the gym membership thing and it always fizzled out quickly because a.) I had no clue what to do on any of the machines and b.) felt pretty intimidated by all the people who did seem to know what the hell they were doing.Finally, after years of not working out, a client of mine referred me to Formative Fitness. I was incredibly suspicious. But I began to train with Brenden, fully expecting it to be a wholly miserable experience of pain and soreness and more pain. But it turns out having a well rounded strength training routine can actually make your life better in many different ways, such as:-cut down on the aches and pains. (stronger core = less back pain)-lifting things at costco is much easier.-give me the jar, i'll open it.-mental health. winters are rough. workouts help.-I have a physical job. I have more power and stamina and am less tired at the end of the day.The list could go on but I'll stop there. Needless to say, I quickly became a convert. I love going to my workouts. One on one training is perfect for me, because I know someone is literally waiting for me to get there so I HAVE to show up. And that person is Brenden. Brenden pushes me just enough to make those sick gains, but when I screw up my knee biking, or hurt myself in some other exciting fashion, he has no problem adjusting the workouts accordingly. Thanks, Brenden. You're the best. Also he has excellent taste in 90s hits. I have seen people from all walks of life train there, there is zero elitism, and the rest of the staff are very friendly. Highly recommend!

Very down to earth staff. Super friendly! Welcoming environment. Experienced and knowledagble coaches.

Great staff, top notch facility. Get 1 on 1 quality time and learn while you work on a better you. Steve and Gordy are incredible. It was great to have someone push me when I needed it, and learn in the process. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. It was refreshing to work with people who are so passionate about what the do. Go become part of the FML family!

Very helpful trainers and clean gym!! Great place!

Jami does such an awesome job explaining everything in the workouts. Pushes everyone to get every ounce of energy out of every workout. You’re missing out if you don’t try it out! Thanks for getting me back into shape!

I am excited to see the quality of the dance floor and location allowing us to share Argentine tango with our community. This is a beautiful space that allows us to transform a studio into a beautiful dance venue.
