While working with Jeff Devine for nearly 3 years, my goals were to build strength and endurance while increasing my flexibility. It was not an easy task considering my allotted time was typically less than 1 hour in the gym during the work day. Jeff made workouts intense but fun. His approach included a variety of exercises so I'm not sure I ever did the same thing twice in a week. Jeff's positive style and encouragement made working out a pleasure and I made considerable strides under his guidance.

I highly recommend Jeff…he's a true professional and you can tell he enjoys helping others achieve their goals. - Chris Hanson, Director of Recruiting, Epsilon
