My name is Erin Phelps and I am a born and raised Martinsville native that graduated from Martinsville high school in the year 2000. I began my love for working out in my early high school years when I would watch fitness shows on tv and something just struck me that I wanted to be fit and train others to be fit too. I took weight training class in high school and never stopped working out!
I began working at the Martinsville Curves in 2000 and worked there until 2012 when I left to start my own personal training business. I trained clients at my home and then in January of 2015 I began working at Reps Fitness here in Martinsville and am continuing to grow my clientele there. I love being a personal trainer because I get to help others improve their quality of life and the friendships I’ve gained through working with people on a regular basis is definitely a bonus! It truly does not feel like a job at all.
I try to keep my workouts fresh so people don’t get bored. I have people do weight training, cardiovascular exercises, boxing, pilates and yoga. I use a variety of equipment to keep the body guessing such as stability balls, bosu balls, medicine balls, kettlebells, battle ropes, TRX suspension trainer and resistance bands. I also include nutritional counseling.
If you’re thinking of getting fit and don’t know where to start or what to do, a personal trainer is a great way to go! A good trainer will teach you what to do and how to safely do it while tailoring the workouts for you and your body. We help keep you accountable so you’ll be more likely to stick with it and get the results you want!
