- Outsweated Excuses, Rebuilt Confidence for Better Health. You know when someone believes in you more than you believe in yourself? If you're looking for that someone, find Sheldon. I walked in weak, physically limited, and sweating through a stretch. Long-term goals felt laughably out of reach. I wanted to quit every day. But Sheldon kept pushing. "One day at a time," he'd say, redirecting my focus to gains I couldn't see. He noticed wins I didn’t—an extra five seconds on a plank, sneaking in reps after my cheats. He made little victories feel big. “You’ll feel better after a workout” became a running joke—annoyingly, he was always right. He never just tells me what to do; he explains why. Understanding the “why” changed everything. Excuses? Not with Sheldon. I had to work hard just to convince him I wasn’t “gym material” to skip a session. He taught me that showing up imperfectly still counts—consistency matters more than perfection. His firm refusal to allow me coast—paired with a safe, judgment-free space—gave me my health back. And about his math— “Only a couple reps to go,” he’d say cheerfully. His “couple” is always generous, but somehow, I always finished them and felt stronger for it. Some days I’d walk in running on empty—he always knew when to push and pull back. Through my endless chatter and riveting tangents, Sheldon just listens, counts reps, corrects my form, and still delivers a killer workout. Every. Single. Time. He's probably dying to show me what I'd accomplish if I stopped talking (one of these days). These days, my challenges are predictable—but so is his ability to turn the impossible doable by tweaking a move or shifting an angle. Thanks to Sheldon, I don’t just finish my workouts—I leave feeling stronger, happier, and genuinely proud of myself every single time. Working with you, Sheldon, is truly one of the best things that’s happened to me. You make me genuinely look forward to discovering what I’m capable of achieving next.

- I've been coming to North Star Fitness for about two years and my experience with the facility and staff has been outstanding. I have Sheldon Reimer as my trainer and it is clear that he knows what he is doing and has tailored each workout to fit my specific needs and goals. I always have fun and come out feeling better, physically and mentally, than when I walked in. When I used to go to the "Big Name" gym, I never had a problem getting myself there, but once there it was always too busy, or I had to wait for equipment, and it took a lot of time to get not a great workout. For the few extra dollars I pay at North Star, I actually spend less time in the gym, get a better workout, and have seen huge results. If you are considering personal training, go check them out; you won't regret it.
