Paula is the Bomb.com!!!! Had it not been for Paula I would not have been able to fit into my very expensive wedding gown. Paula will kick your butt but in a really good way. She tailors an exercise program mixing cardio and weight training so you can accomplish your fitness goals. I owe her a lot because I look back at my wedding photos and I love the way my body looks!!! Thank you Paula!!! I wish you were still in Birmingham!!!! Miss you!!!

I met Paula Mckie several months ago and not only did I find an awesome trainer but a good friend. I have been going through some personal issues over the last several years and had gained a lot of weight. I was very unhappy with how I felt and how I looked. I decided that if things were going to change, I needed to put myself first. I lost weight and started working out with Paula and I am happy to say that I have never felt better! Knowing that Paula really cares about me makes a big difference in how I look at exercise. She reminds me that I have to do it for myself. Working out with Paula is not easy, but that's a good thing. She is very knowledgable and she challenges me in every session. Sometimes I'm amazed by what I can do. I really try not to say, "I can't" because she knows what I am capable of and when something looks like it's too difficult, she comes up with an alternative that works for me. I would have never thought that exercise could be fun, but Paula and I laugh, we talk and she makes me want to keep coming back. I am so pleased with my results and have her to thank for all the tools she has given me. I'm never bored with the same old routines because Paula always mixes it up to keep it fun and rewarding. If you're looking for a trainer who will take a real interest in you and also "kick your butt", then Paula's the girl for you. And if you're lucky, you just might find a friend along the way. Give her a call, it will be one of the best decisions you ever make!

Robin you have done a fantastic job!!! Keep it up for life. Thank you!! I have thoroughly enjoyed kicking your butt :)

Paula came into my life at the right time and right place. I have been on a personal battle with my weight for years due to an injury and found it very difficult to lose the weight. I took up excersizing and using equipment at the gym till I decided to hire Paula to help me out. I never expected that I would see the results I have. She helped me exceed my limits and kept pushing me to go forward and do more and I did. I lost many inches and toned my body with her workouts. I love that she always keeps it different and always making you want to come back to see what is next. She has given me the tools to do things on my own and I can geniunly say that I have learned from her. I recommend Paula to people with high goals or even those that just need a boost. She will get you there! Thanks Paula for all you have done for me. You have given me stregnth in many aspects of my life both in and out of the gym.
Paula's Response on Oct 15, 2012:
Thank you Maria!! You are a strong willed Lady you can achieve anything that you set your mind to!!! Never give up always and work hard......

I met Paula probably 8 years ago and have addicted to her since then. I am proud to say she is not only my personal trainer but also my friend. Although we consider us friends she does not take it easy on me, she is extremely knowledgeable and keeps it's current with the last fitness exercise. She is easy to talk to, and extremely passionate about helping you achieve your goals.
Paula's Response on Oct 15, 2012:
Thank you Adria, I am determined to get you there!!! You always work hard!! Thanks for being my friend :)

I TRAINED WITH PAULA FOR ABOUT 4 YRS. DURING THAT TIME SHE HELPED ME IN MANY WAYS. SHE IS EASY TO TALK WITH AND HAS A GREAT SMILE BUT A NO NONSENCE WORKOUT SESSION. SHE WAS ALWAYS AWARE OF MY LIMITATIONS AND I MISS HER VERY MUCH.
I STILL FEEL THE IMPACT AND INFLUENCE FROM OUR SESSIONS TO THIS DAY. I WOULD RECOMMEND PAULA TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR A CARING KNOWLEDGEABLE TRAINER
