See what my clients have to say:

Amanda is quite simply the best trainer, bar none. Her knowledge and skill are broad and deep, spanning nutrition, body mechanics and structure, cardiovascular and strength training, balance and flexibility. She continually reviews and revises my program to address my needs and goals. She is the most conscientious trainer I've ever encountered, keenly focused on form and execution. A correction of a half an inch can make a huge difference in targeting the right muscle. She attends seminars and takes classes to keep abreast of new research and techniques and incorporates them into her training as she sees fit. My body is so much better for her training, both inside and out.

I have worked with Amanda for over a year and recommend her highly.  She crafts and continuously updates a training regimen geared closely to my health, conditioning and goals.  She also gives useful advice on a training program to do at home, and on diet and nutrition.  In my case, she has been careful to address but not aggrevate pre-existing injuries, and she ensures that I confirm with my doctors that her on-going training is consistent with their advice.  Amanda's evident concern for my health and well being sets her apart, and I can recommend her without reservation.

When I started seeing Amanda, I had some issues with my left knee, causing my patella to pull to the outside.  My left calf was a half inch smaller than the right, because I was apparently favoring my right side.  In the beginning she had me try lunges and my knee just wouldn't take the strain.  So we tried different strength exercises.  She's great at knowing your limits and pushing them, but not pushing you too far.   Not only am I now able to do lunges without pain, but my left and right calf are the same size!  I had some rather specific goals when I started going to Amanda.  I wasn't sure what to expect, but Amanda has been amazing.  She was tough with me, pushing me beyond what I thought I could do, without being a stoic drill sergeant.  She's fun and encouraging, and master of varying her exercises so that you don't get bored.  I always asked her if she just sits around at night thinking up new ways to exercise.  I feel like I have the strength and tools to achieve my long term fitness goals thanks to her patient encouragement and expertise.

I began working out with Amanda as I was trying to move my workout program to the mornings and needed guidance and motivation.  Amanda provided both of these to me.  She was always timely, prepared, and fully focused on me - which is a big difference from other trainers.  After my assessment, Amanda walked me through the areas of improvement, and it was clear that her workouts were geared to optimize my time to get the best results.  Amanda consulted on my fitness outside of the training, and I found her guidance very helpful.  She is a good motivator, and I saw results in my workouts very quickly.  Amanda is clearly a true professional and student of her craft.

Amanda Kate Hill's work ethic is top notch. I am so happy about my results and I love it when people ask (especially the fellas), " Do you workout? " It is one thing to see your results and something completely different when others notice your results. Amanda is a great trainer, teacher and role model. What I've learned about Amanda is that she studies her clients and creates an incredible workout that fits their specific need. She is very intuitive, which I truly appreciate because she takes the time to learn you. She knows when you can push yourself a little harder and she also knows when you're getting ready to check out. Amanda is not the kind of trainer who gets in your face and verbally abuses you but she will give you the look. You know the look your mother gives, when she's not going to entertain your foolishness. Yes, that look. We're human and it will make you talk a little smack in your head. This is what you signed up for and No pain, no gain. Amanda is dedicated to her clients and she doesn't half step, which means you will not half step. For me, I have experienced more than a physical transformation. I have been changed in every aspect of my life. I enjoy taking care of myself and feeding my temple good things. I feel beautiful. I didn't come to Amanda with a weight problem. I'm 5'1" and I've weighed 107 lbs for years. My desire was to look better, become stronger, have muscle tone, definition and Beyonce's abs. We're still working on the Beyonce abs but I've gotten it all and much more. I don't know if Amanda is aware of the impact she has made in my life. Her influences on me has trickled down to my family and friends. They're all curious and making efforts to eat better. Some are kicking bad habits and joining me on morning runs. Amanda is an awesome personal trainer and person. She is truly worth your time. Thanks Amanda!

Amanda is awesome, since I started training with her a year ago I have have lost almost 50 pounds. She is not a "rah rah you can do it" type of trainer but more of a coach that points you in the right direction and then helps you work your butt off.

"As an amateur cyclist I was riding a lot  - training for a couple of centuries a year - but not doing much else.  I thought I was pretty fit for a guy over 55, but found I had reached a plateau with regard to both speed and endurance.  I was never a "gym rat" and hated the whole fitness club scene, but I took the plunge and started to work with Amanda twice a week.  It was a totally great experience, working one on one in her new space.  Being a former bike racer, she immediately knew that I needed to strengthen my core if I wanted to get better.  She designed several different workout routines and mixed them up - it was never boring and always challenging!  She also improved my nutritional habits, got me through a back injury, and was always available to answer questions or give support.  The results?  Better balance on the bike that improved my descending, increased climbing ability, better overall endurance, and, most importantly, an understanding of what it takes OFF the bike to achieve my goals."

" I started working with Amanda after back surgery to remove a tumor on a vertebrae which had left me unable to exercise for close to 2 years. Now, let's be honest here, I was never one to go the gym and "work out". The only exercise I ever had was walking around the lake and playing golf. Not much..I was completely out of shape by the time I found my way to Amanda's gym.. Her gentle (but firm!) approach to my case made me a quick convert. She took the time to understand my challenges and tailor exercises to safely bring me back to health. Thanks to her constant support I was quickly able to get back to the links and steadily improve my game while getting my physical strength back. I still would not join a "club" but I love my one on one sessions with Amanda. She is a true gem."

Amanda is "as good as it gets" - No- she is actually better! I have some "rockin' abs" in just 3 weeks of 2 x per week custom designed workouts. I'm in better shape at 50 that my staff in their 30's-seriously.

A life long fitness buff I was stuck in a routine, didn't know what or how to shake it up to get to the next level. Unlike other trainers, Amanda actually listened to my concerns, the changes I wanted to make in the time I had to devote to the program. Her custom tailored program fits my schedule, and cut my gym hours in half- but the best part is the overall results!

I experienced a remarkable transformation under Amanda’s skilled and unique approach to fitness and body conditioning. Though over the last 15 years I had trained diligently in both strength training and aerobic exercises, I was never able to achieve the results I have recently realized under Amanda’s guidance. Amanda’s focus and intense attention to detail are unmatched in her field. I believe anyone who works with Amanda will derive great benefit from her knowledge and instruction in neuromuscular training and conditioning, which I’m convinced, will lead to greater improvement in overall health and fitness.

Amanda has an innate passion for health & fitness that radiates her entire being. I wouldn't have ever been able to meet my goal of running the San Francisco AIDS Foundation Honolulu Marathon without her emotional and professional support. What's especially unique about her approach is that it's so detail oriented to the individual. I don't enjoy physical activity but Amanda managed to make it meaningful and fun. I will never forget the feeling of accomplishing that very personal goal.

Many years later, after having a baby, we're working together again to get my body back in shape and my weight at a healthy place.
