Reviews of The Athletic Way
Susan M.
I joined The Athletic Way six weeks ago and I feel so much stronger in that short amount of time. Kyle uses your initial evaluation to design a workout program specific to you while taking into account your personal goals, injuries or any physical limitations you may have. The Athletic Way is a great program for all age groups. Kyle and Rhianna truly care about each and every person that they're training. You don't have to be an athlete to enjoy the benefits of a program like this but you'll feel like an athlete when you train The Athletic Way.
Matthew Boucher
Kyle demonstrates excellent knowledge of and the ability to teach proper lifting and conditioning techniques so that members can achieve their goals while decreasing the risk of acute injury or long-term wear-and-tear on the body that can limit one's potential.
My experience at TAW since joining six months ago has been very positive as I have made continued progress building back strength and cardio fitness after suffering a spinal injury. Kyle's individual programming is a great balance between general conditioning and strength training while also focusing on PT-like rehabilitation specific to the injury. His programming is creative, varied, and appropriately challenging such that I am continually engaged while pushing myself to meet new goals in a safe manner.

I’ve been working out at The Athletic Way for four months now and I couldn’t be happier! Prior to joining I was stuck in a rut of working out on my own in the one-body-part-per-day split. Old school! After battling shoulder injuries for years I knew it was time for a change. Kyle was attentive to my circumstances and has catered unique programs to meet my goals. I’m doing things during training sessions that I’ve never heard of before despite being a gym-goer for the past 25 years! The results and gains have been noticeable and my only regret is that I waited so long to join. Additionally, the weekly healthy muffin recipes that he shares have become a family favorite!

It has been six months since I took a chance and started my training journey at The Athletic Way. Like many, I suffered some setbacks both physically and mentally during the pandemic despite my best efforts working out on my own. I found myself spinning my wheels without making progress despite my hard work. I knew I needed some help reaching my goals I contacted The Athletic Way and set up a evaluation with Kyle, the owner and head coach. The day of my evaluation, I almost chickened out and cancelled. I am so glad I decided to give TAW a chance. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made!
Kyle and Rhianna are knowledgeable, supportive and motivated to help you achieve YOUR goals. After reviewing my history, goals and initial evaluation, Kyle created a program unique to me. Each month, I receive a new program that builds on the prior program and as the weeks go by, I feel stronger, more capable and confident. The Athletic Way has impacted not only my physical health, but has also impacted all areas of my life in and outside the gym in positive ways.
I feel like TAW has transformed my whole way of life and outlook for my future health and well being.
Consider joining The Athletic Way. Live Athletic! You will have the support of not only the coaches at TAW but from fellow gym members working out along side you.
Nyatan Bol
From the moment I signed up for an evaluation with Kyle at The Athletic Way, I knew it was a decision that would change my life in many ways. During our initial conversation, he outlined specific goals and strategies to help me achieve them while taking into consideration past injuries - something I had not experienced with other trainers before. From the first day in class, both Kyle and Rhi have been incredibly supportive and provided expertise that stretches beyond fitness. With their guidance, I now have more confidence when I walk into any gym, knowing that I have all the knowledge I need to work out safely and prevent injury.
Though the physical improvements I have made in strength, health, and overall well-being are incredible, the true transformation from TAW goes deeper than that. It's a community of passionate people committed to pursuing fitness in an authentic and positive way - kind, warm people with whom I have formed meaningful connections in my short time. In summary, if you're looking to make a real, lasting lifestyle change, then don't look any further - The Athletic Way is THE place you want to be!
Kristine Billings
Working with Kyle in the past, I knew he was the 1st person I'd reach out to for my husband. My husband had a stroke 6 months ago where he tore 2 arteries. Because he was healthy and very lucky, his recovery for his motor skills was very quick, but not at his pre-stroke levels. His cognitive ability wasn't 100% but I could trust Kyle that he'd watch over his current abilities and work one on one, when needed. Physical therapy/insurance would not accept him as a patient because he was "functioning". I knew he needed more and needed to work on his strength to get back to his full abilities. Kyle and The Athletic Way worked with him during his restriction period and ramped up his training once they were lifted. I could not think of a better place to work with. They programmed his workout to his level and increased each week as he improved. Not only physically, but helped him mentally as he slowly worked through his recovery. I cannot thank The Athletic Way family for everything they've done for him and will always reach to Kyle first for all my physical therapy needs. His knowledge and the way he handles his athletes is 2nd to none!
Richard Baressi
I had knee replacement surgery and Brian from advanced injury treatment recommended more strength training with Kyle at taw.
I have been training there w/ Kyle and Rhi for well over a year and my knee is better than ever with more strength and range of motion.
The program Kyle set up for me has also got me in great mental and physical shape, has upgraded my confidence and has allowed me to continue w/ my career as a chef working 12/14 hr shifts on my feet with no problem.
I have been a member at other gyms working out on my own and sometimes would get lost in the shuffle, or didn't feel like going and basically wasting my money with limited results.
At taw they set up a 4 week plan, you can adjust the online time schedule anytime, and you get personalized attention to detail in all phases of your workout. Basically you are set up for success and you get great results.
When I leave taw after a workout l feel great w/ more energy and a clear mind ready to tackle the day making better decisions.
The cost is a little more than a regular gym but you get so much more.
Money is important but your health is everything!!
Kyle has set up a family friendly culture at taw, the place is spotless and everyone wipes down after use.
If you are setting goals and looking for some positive impact on your life I highly recomend taw. Give Kyle a call, tell him Richie sent you
Rachel Gamelin
Kyle and Rhianna are devoted trainers who don’t just talk the talk; they’re always willing to help. I had been doing resistance training for a few years and I was looking for more targeted guidance on form and mobility. At TAW, you can ask all the ‘dumb’ questions in the world about your training (like I did), and you’ll be supported and given expert advice. I love the no-mirrors, no-BS environment. The community is encouraging and warm. Can’t recommend it highly enough.
Scott MacFarland
I've been working out at The Athletic Way in Bedford, NH, for almost 6 months now & cannot say enough positive things about this gym community and the owner, Kyle Arsenault. At age 40, I am currently in remission after a brutal battle with cancer a few years back. After going through radiation, chemo infusions & two major surgeries, I thought that I'd never get back to my old physical self. Through Kyle's personally developed programs, not only am I confident that I will get back to my old physical self, I actually think that I'm steaming towards getting into the best physical shape of my life. Thank you to Kyle and the TAW Community!

The Athletic Way (TAW) has been a part of my life for close to four years. From Day One I thought, "IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS!" And for so many reasons, I have continued believing this each and every day since.
The extensive knowledge-base, continuous learning, diverse experience and deep-deep passion for what they do, make each coach truly phenomenal! They believe in you, in your potential to succeed and in their skilled practices to get you there.
Kyle Arsenault, Owner and Head Coach, has instilled an atmosphere at TAW that is positively welcoming, comfortable and down-to-earth. Coach Rhianna and all she has brought to TAW underscores this even more. Both coaches are so well-liked, so easily respected and admired, both professionally and for who they are as people. So much so that you want to work even harder so as not to let either one of them down.
All of this is also reflected in the wonderful members at TAW--some of the nicest people you would ever want to meet. All ages--young teens to 70s-plus. All levels--new-to-fitness to elite athletes. You will not feel like a new member for long because anyone you meet will make you feel welcome.
At any given workout, between coaches and members, the level of motivation, inspiration and camaraderie in the air is off the charts.
The gym layout is great, always kept really clean, and the equipment consistently maintained in top-functioning order.
Whether you are simply looking for a change; just coming out of physical therapy; trying to lose weight; seeking sport-specific improvement; getting no where with your present fitness efforts; or ANY reason under the sun, chances are 99.9% that TAW is the place for you to achieve the results you want. The coaches have what it takes and more to get you there!
Personally for me, prior to joining TAW, I was losing hope in maintaining strength and worried I would let age get the better of me. Two hip replacements followed by an additional hip revision, all within three years of my early 60s, left me discouraged as I declined in strength and fitness level that I worked so hard to maintain through life. My first visit to TAW immediately changed all that useless stressing. I knew I was in the right place because everything about TAW was exactly what I always dreamed of in a gym, including the powerfulness of great coaching. It was now just a matter of time and it did not take long to see striking positive results. The issues that came with my hip surgeries became well-forgotten history. All the benefits of TAW continue with me every day, improving more than I ever thought possible, and continually learning so much from the best.
I highly recommend The Athletic Way for anyone wanting to become stronger, healthier and overall happier in life!
Tricia Corson
Kyle is professional, knowledgeable and personable. Kyle has great programs and modifies them to each person. I have trained with Kyle before, during, and after my recent pregnancy as well. Training is never boring and I feel great after my workouts. Kyle pushes me to meet my own goals and is always a resource. My strength 💪 and self confidence has grown. I highly recommend working with Kyle whether you are a beginner or not. He will guide you in the direction!
Bob Alban
TAW is a community of motivated exceptional people improving their lives under the tutelage of master trainer Kyle Arsenault. In short, TAW is the best kept secret in Bedford, NH. Joining TAW has had a substantial positive impact on my life and I hope others will take advantage of this opportunity.
Paula Manniello
Can’t say enough good things about Kyle and the Athletic Way! I love the small group training, the individual attention to detail based on specific needs, goals and limitations. Great follow up to see how I’m feeling outside of training. I’m at a point in my life where I’m looking for quality workouts and guidance. I have my son who is a college athlete also working with Kyle and my daughter who was just looking to get in some good exercise without having to feel competitive with everyone else, and she’s killing it! I highly recommend anyone with injuries, limitation or concerns to reach out to Kyle. You will be very happy you did!
Rhianna Waterman
When I started with Kyle, I had numerous joint problems secondary to lifting. Since I have been training at TAW, I have not experienced any of the injuries I started with. Kyle builds adaptive programs tailored to individual training goals/injuries, provides knowledge about the benefits of each exercise/movement, and with smaller classes, he is attentive to each of his athletes.
TAW is the place to be: from a great atmosphere, to a great team dynamic, to an attentive coach who pushes you to crush your goals safely. TAW offers everything one could ask for in a facility and coach.
Kyle’s expertise, passion and attentiveness provides TAW with the best fitness experience. I would not recommend anyone else!
Marc Johnson
I've been a long-time lifter and up until I became a member of TAW I was never able to reach my potential. Always jumping from program to program and had the mindset of more=better. However, that isn't the case. Kyle at TAW provides specialized programs for each individual, which focuses on the quality of the movement versus training muscle groups. Each session is roughly an hour and although that may not seem long, I can assure you, you'll leave there sore, tired and with a feeling of accomplishment. The best part of TAW is Kyle's knowledge and ability to work with you, around injuries/ailments you may have, to ensure you get an effective pain free training session in. Best health decision I made was joining TAW.
scott remillard
As a body builder for over 20 years and a personal trainer myself I found training with Kyle to be very educating. Kyle taught me new ways to train that were safer for my age and body. His knowledge is amazing and his personally really pushed the class. I look forward to training with Kyle again someday. I highly recommend him. I never thought I could get sore again, buy Kyle made me use muscles I haven't felt in years.
Barbie Papalios
I have been going to TAW for about three months now and it is a game changer! Kyle is a great trainer. From the first day I went, I saw results. I have some pain in my left hip/glute area from sitting too much and Kyle recommended some simple soft tissue work and it helped immediately. He works in exercises that help with any pain you might have and is so knowledgeable so he can always help you modify a exercise if you are experiencing any pain. He is training a new trainer, Rhi, and she is awesome! I always feel better after working out at TAW and they are always there to correct you and help
motivate you (without being annoying or anything). I would highly recommend and it is worth the money!!!
Tim Jakubowski
I came to see Kyle at the recommendation of a local physical therapist. The last year I dealt with two surgeries and a chronic condition diagnosis, quit apprehensive and insecure about starting over. I used to be a significantly active lifter and cyclist who was struggling to even do a lunge.
We did an initial intake, where we talked more about the mental aspect of things than just purely physical. I’ve worked with many trainers, and most will shy away from anything other than the routine, but Kyle wants to understand the whole person who came in. I was really apprehensive, and admittedly slow to jump in, but it was well worth it.
While I’m not back to where I want to be, in 6 weeks I can now lunge with weight and do more movement than the last year. Kyle is extremely knowledgeable about scaling and adapting programs to meet you where you’re at. He’ s created an environment and programming style that progresses you instead of leaving you dragging through the week. My chronic condition has been more manageable because of how we work together.
If you’re serious about trying to improve your health and especially if you’re someone coming from a setback, TAW is the place to be.
Brian Looney
As a practicing physical therapist you need to have a strength and conditioning specialist you can rely on to send your patient's. The collaboration between the professions has been a huge aspect of optimal patient outcomes for me. What makes Kyle different Is his ability to train clients that may be dealing with injuries or have some limitations that could potentially lead to an injury. I have worked closely with him for over 10 years and there is no one that I respect and trust more than Kyle.
Kyle also has trained my son for over 2 years now and made such a huge impact on him not only with regards to training but also as a positive role model. I would highly recommend Kyle to anyone looking to get in shape or have a youth athlete that is looking to take their game to the next level.
bill madison
TAW is a great place to train. Kyle has a background in PT and in strength training and this gives him a unique, dual insight. His mantra is "everyone is an athlete"—and he puts those words into action at his gym, making everyone comfortable and confident.
Pat Kaplo
My son is a baseball pitcher and worked out with Kyle in the 2021. Over the course of just a few months he was able to add about 2 MPH to his pitching velocity. Kyle had precise knowledge of the core mechanics and a thoughtful plan for safely developing power while not sacrificing range of motion for the athlete. The experience working out with Kyle was a strong one and I would recommend it for those with real training goals. Live athletic!
Advanced Injury Treatment Center Bedford, NH
Kyle is the best! My son, who is 14, has worked with him for three years. Not only is Kyle an excellent strength coach but he is an amazing role model for our son. The training has improved my sons athleticism as well as his self confidence. I highly recommend Kyle for ANYONE wanting to make a positive life change! Thank you Kyle!!!!!!
David Withee
I joined The Athletic Way (TAW) a little more than 3 years ago based on referral from a friend. It was the best decision I ever made and it has been life changing. I spent 2-3 years with lower back pain from exercise and outdoor chores which eventually led to hamstring issues. I did physical therapy, weekly chiropractic appointments (sometimes 2-3 times per week), and several other modifications such as limiting my running, buying a new mattress and stand up desk. I became frustrated as I was always in some level of pain. When I first met Kyle, he did a personal assessment and recommended a few things to do at home prior to my first workout session. He personalized a program to focus on the root cause of my issues and I began feeling results within two weeks. We often reflect together on the progress and the things I can do now in training that I never thought was possible. I have gained increased confidence with testing my core and lower back in ways I never thought possible. His attention to detail, willingness to listen to your personal goals, compassion for his clients, and commitment to ensure success has been exactly the support and coach I needed. My only regret is that it took me 3 years to make the decision to join TAW.
Colby Boppel
I have been at TAW for over 2 months now. Wow, time flies. Prior to joining, I avidly worked out at a gym for years. I had a number of nagging injuries. The reasons for my injuries were quickly identified as small incorrect movements I was making. I was incredibly impressed how quickly they were not only found but how knowledgeable Kyle was in explaining the why. Over 2 months in, I'm arguably in the best shape of my life at 40 and more importantly pain free! TAW was referred to me by a friend and I was a huge skeptic. I am now TAWs biggest fan. Lastly, if I ever need anything, advice, recommendations, off day exercises, Kyle is always very quick to respond.
Thank you for everything TAW!
Jesse D.
TAW came highly recommended and after an orientation with Kyle I was sold. Classes are small and Kyle's attention & expertise is equivalent to one on one training. The workouts are highly productive and my strength has noticeably improved. As an avid golfer I have really benefited from the core and flexibility training. Kyle is extremely diligent with COVID precautions and the facility is immaculate. I believe after several months that TAW is hands down the best fitness experience available.
Joe Proulx
My son started going to group sessions at The Athletic Way with his teammates nearly three years ago. To say I've seen a transformation in my son since he began is a significant understatement. Obviously with regular visits to Kyle, he's gotten stronger physically, which has helped him in all the sports he plays. But other transformations have shown themselves too. The physical barriers he conquers in the gym with Kyle have given him a resounding confidence that he brings with him when he leaves the facility. The bonds he's formed with the boys he's worked out with give them a friendship that goes beyond school or play - a bond formed over mutual hard work and many bouts on the assault bike. And the mentoring and coaching Kyle has provided him means he not only has the best strength and conditioning coach in the area, but a friend who is always willing to give advice above and beyond what he's paid to do. Most importantly, as a dad, I've watched my son grow into a young man who is learning the concepts of life-long fitness with the guidance, safety, and expertise that The Athletic Way provides. Knowing my son is getting stronger and faster using the latest science and a strict adherence to the correct form, in an environment that encourages a lifetime of fitness, is worth its weight in gold. I can't speak highly enough about Kyle, Jamie, and the rest of The Athletic Way crew. They are truly a top notch company and the best in the area at what they do.
Carl Milliard
Recomend to all who want to loose weight, get into shape, take there fitness to another level, improve mobility and flexabilty, rehab from either injury or surgery, the Athletic Way is a 5 star training facility!
Scott Marquis
So thankful for Kyle and the personal programming and attention during sessions!
After 2 knee surgeries last year, I didn't think I would ever be able to work my lower half or ever run again. Working out and running has been a passion of mine and when I had the surgeries I felt lost AND FRUSTRATED not being able to do the things I have grown to love.
I felt like I was losing a piece of my identity and my confidence.
I was referred to Kyle by whom I feel is the top physical therapist in the area, and man he was right!
Kyle has worked with me personally for almost 6 months now to rebuild and learn to train in a way that builds strength without pain or injury. Now my legs/knees are stronger than ever and I am back running again! The type of training he has taught me and continues to coach me, has brought so many new elements of being athletic and stronger than ever. I was looking to be stronger, build a base of training knowledge, be more athletic and thats exactly what I have been coached providing me my best well rounded performance. I have also had some shoulder issues that he has worked into my personal programs.
Quite frankly, he's the only coach around that has the knowledge, component programming and personal ability focus to make the changes and gains anyone is looking for in personal goals.
I now train without frustration, or fear that I may be doing something wrong, and my identity is back! Icould never thank you enough!
PS. My girlfriend also started training at TAW for extreme back pain and issues. She is killing it now with little or no pain at her very physical job!
Kathy Mangum
Kyle is incredibly knowledgeable and a dedicated skilled trainer. He has a true passion to help anyone improve physically and become a better version of themselves. For me, he has done the following things well during my sessions: Accessed me from a starting standpoint, listened to my goals, and challenged me to go beyond what I believe I am capable of.
I’ve been to trainers in the past but what made Kyle truly stand out is that he thought of me as an “athlete” from day one, well before I saw myself as one. Workouts are never boring, the facility is clean and not overwhelming. I would not recommend going anywhere else and training with anyone else, you’ll only be wasting your valuable time.
Christine Griffin
Kyle is both knowledgeable and passionate. He takes the time to assess each individual's strengths and weaknesses and is able to adapt his program accordingly. He can manage 5 athletes at a time without missing a beat. I would highly recommend The Athletic Way !
Phyllis Walker
Kyle is professional and knowledgeable. The facility is incredibly clean. I started working out at The Athletic Way several weeks ago. I was feeling deconditioned ! I have had a spinal fusion as well as a total knee replacement. Kyle has guided me thru a custom program that has me feeling stronger, is safe, and advances my program based on my personal growth. I feel better and more confident. I highly recommend The Athletic Way.
Christine Williams
I started going to TAW about 6 months ago and it was the best decision. When I reached out and spoke with Kyle I shared what I was looking to achieve and he truly listened and set me up for success. I’m so excited of the improvements I’ve made thus far. It’s a great environment to train (small groups) and I appreciate the email communications that TAW provides us on a regular basis.

The Athletic Way exceeds all my expectations. It has been true to everything I had read on the website and so much more. Each week since beginning in April 2019, I have experienced a continuous progression of positive results--in strength, movement, endurance, appearance--all in the best workout environment. It is welcoming, CLEAN, low key with happy clients of all ages, all following their individualized workouts programmed and coached by Kyle Arsenault, the owner and a truly great guy.
Kyle is so knowledgeable in the ever evolving field of fitness and health. His expertise, genuine passion and outstanding coaching skills make me confident that I am getting the best workout possible in the most time-efficient manner, AND that it will produce actual positive results, AND avoid injury or wasted time from incorrect form and/or much of my out-dated workout routines.
Motivating, inspiring, achieving, exceeding--each one a powerful word that I experience coming to life like never before. All at The Athletic Way. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to get fit, stay fit, and/or exceed what you ever thought possible. Kyle has the skill, passion and knowledge to get you there!

Well, I almost never write reviews...but I felt this was one I needed to write. At 69 years old, I knew it was now or never if I was going to get into a consistent physical workout routine. A close friend of mine recommended I call Kyle, as he had done amazing things for him. My friend had several physical issues making it very hard for him to work out. In just 1 year, he now works out like he did 25 years ago, before all his issues. I have a severe back issue, and was concerned I would not be able to work out. It had done me in before when working with several other personal trainers. I can not say enough about how knowledgeable Kyle is about just how to properly work out so my back is not a problem, and in fact is getting stronger. I only wish I had met Kyle years ago...but as the saying goes...better late than never!
Jim G.
I joined TAW seven months ago when dealing with neck and lower back problems. The programs and instruction are tailored to my individual goals, strengths and weaknesses. Kyle has demonstrated excellent knowledge and ability to communication effectively. The facility is well equipped and meticulously cleaned. TAW has surpassed my expectations and I'm happy with the results, which include weight loss, increased strength and agility.
suzanne armitstead
It’s difficult to articulate the physical and mental changes that Kyle has helped me achieve in just 4 short weeks of working with him at TAW, but I will try! I came to Kyle as a last-ditch effort after a long and frustrating recovery from hip labrum repair and FAI correction surgery following an injury in March 2020. I was constantly in pain, sitting, standing, just going about daily life. I was unable to participate in activities that I loved, like running with friends, chasing my kids around the yard or even sitting on the floor and building legos with my toddler without being in constant pain or taking medication to mask the pain. Aside from the physical restrictions, it was heartbreaking to not be able to carry my toddler upstairs to bed, lift her into her crib or be able to give her a tubby every night without getting help from someone else. After struggling for a year and a half, I felt like I needed to accept this as my new reality.
I saw Kyle for an evaluation and he shared with me that he had been through not only the same surgery as I had, but a similar mental struggle. There is nothing more comforting than finding a provider who has been in your shoes and knows what you are feeling both physically and mentally. He immediately identified weaknesses to address and explained why I was feeling pain with certain movements. He worked with me to make modifications and set short term goals. I trained with him (and a number of other awesome, incredibility welcoming TAW athletes) 3 times a week for 4 weeks. Some of the incredible milestones I’ve achieved within the last week have been running with minimal pain, doing a real squat (without cheating!) for the first time since high school, doing 5 push-ups in a row with no assistance (something I’ve never been able to do)….but more importantly were my unanticipated bonuses: carrying my toddler upstairs to bed, toting her around Story Land for 6+ hours without relying on ibuprofen, kayaking with my son and not needing to rely on another adult to lift and lower the kayak, things I haven’t been able to do since March 2020. I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel and for the first time since my initial injury, I am now confident this will get better.
Thank you Kyle for not only getting me back on track, but for sharing your own experience and making me feel like I was not alone. And please keep subtly reminding me to add more weight to the sled or squeeze in an extra pull-up 😉
Nicole Manni
I initially came to Kyle as my lifestyle of fitness was compromised with some degenerative knee issues. I was looking for someone to help me work around the issues so I could “get back." Over two years later, not only are my knee symptoms at bay but “getting back” now means “staying” with The Athletic Way! Kyle’s exceptional knowledge base with anatomy/physiology and how to work with bumps in the road has allowed me to stay injury-free while I continue to make fitness and strength gains. No reason to go anywhere else. Kyle's concern about the whole person he’s training is evident in and out of the gym. My whole family has benefitted from his out-of-gym experience; including ongoing nutrition and training seminars and general wellness lifestyle hacks. We all love Kyle (and his family) and happy to be spreading the good word about The Athletic Way.
Brit Munsterteiger
Kyle does a great job building a community of likeminded athletes. Each one of us has our own specific goals, but despite that, there is a commonality that Kyle fosters that makes a great workout/training environment. It is the only place/program that has kept me motivated on a consistent basis.
Patricia Hurley
Kyle is exceptionally knowledgeable and was quickly able to help me learn to be pain free after several years of the injury, PT, ramp back up, injury, PT loop. I enjoy my workout and REALLY enjoy working out and running pain free!
Nichole DiVietro
Kyle Arsenault from The Athletic Way (TAW) is more than a personal trainer. He is a coach who is behind you, motivating you, encouraging you, listening to you, teaching you, educating you and guiding you every step of the way on your journey to better health, proper nutrition and fitness. I was referred to Kyle by my physical therapist, and I am just so grateful to have been pointed in Kyle’s direction. I have dealt with chronic back pain for years. With each visit, Kyle has trained me and taught me how to use proper form and technique in strengthening and activating my core along with engaging other muscle groups. He knew exactly what to do and how to work with me when I came in with pain and struggled with movement. He would modify exercises in such a way that I could approach an exercise safely and do the exercise confidently. I now approach my workout routines with an informed understanding of how my body is functioning and moving. I’ve learned to listen to my body and have been made aware of the fear patterns I made for myself in my approach to physical motion. I broke free from a prison of pain under Kyle’s coaching and training. I HIGHLY recommend Kyle Arsenault for anyone who is looking for a personal trainer.

My son loves going to train at TAW! Kyle is outstanding! Learning to workout with proper form, challenge himself and engage in a positive community have been outstanding for my son. Kyle is such a great role model for all and continually shares his expertise. Thanks TAW!

My son has been training with TAW for just two weeks. In that small amount of time I have already seen an improvement in his strength and power. My son happens to focus on baseball and he and I can already see an improvement in his bat speed. We are very excited to be training with Kyle and we can already tell this is going to be a game changer for us!

15 months ago, I was feeling rundown, tired and a bit sad at my physical situation. At 42, I could not believe I felt “so old and broken.” My kids were gearing up for their ski race season and I was bummed about my knee pain and my shoulder pain. They were both keeping me from skiing, running and biking. All activities we do as a family. All activities I had hoped to do with my kids for the rest of my life. My evaluation and first month at TAW was a birthday gift from my husband. At the end of the evaluation, I knew I was in good hands. Kyle did a great job of explaining both my shoulder pain and my knee pain in a way I could understand. He immediately made me feel at ease about providing a training solution for both of them. I have been "getting after it” with Kyle at TAW for over a year and feel great! I can do things that used to make me cringe. It no longer hurts my shoulder to drive my car! Hooray! I can hike with my kids up and down a mountain with confidence that my knee can do it! We just tried cross country skiing (an activity that I would have opted out of) and it was a blast! Our family was able to experience it together. With Kyle’s help, I know that our family will be able to create many more active adventures in the future in all four seasons. No more feeling old or tired. I feel strong and ready to spend time with my kids doing all sorts of fun things!

Kyle is very skilled and knowledgeable, he can setup a program to whatever your need is. I would highly recommend whether you have been training for a long time or just starting out.
