Update: I have now been training weekly with Trainer Alheim for over a year. I am only more impressed with him as time has gone on. His workouts are challenging- rarely do you work on just one muscle in an exercise- and I know what when he says i will really like something that it will be particularly challenging. Yet, he continues to show me new exercises, is always encouraging and patient, and genuinely engaged in my progress. His mixing of mobility, breathing, strength and nutrition is a winning combination and I have seen significant improvement in my own progress as a result. He now offers on-line classes as well which is a good way of learning from him on your own schedule. I continue to highly recommend him for anyone seeking a wonderful trainer.I highly recommend Trainer Alheim. I have been working with Trainer Alheim for a couple months now. I have been exercising on my own for a long time but wanted to get in better shape and do different exercises than my usual routine in the hopes of seeing a difference. Trainer Alheim has certainly delivered. He is upbeat, patient, very organized, and extremely knowledgeable about all types of exercises- but also about things like mobility and breathing, which I did not realize play a large role in a comprehensive workout plan. He trains differently, using exercises I have never seen before along with more familiar routines. He is a stickler for proper form and technique, and I now realize that I had developed many bad habits in many of my go to exercises. Whether you are seeking to get in better shape, or are training for specific event, or just need an encouraging voice to hold you accountable, Trainer Alheim fits the bill. As noted above, I highly recommend him. (PS- he posts videos so you can check him out to get a sense of his style and process).
I hate exercise but I love Trainer Alheim. Ive been avoiding exercising for 60 years, but now I cant wait for my individual twice-per-week 30 minutes online with Trainer Alheim. We get a lot done during the sessions, He neither overworks nor underworks me. Im totally amazed how he remembers exactly what I did last session, and exactly how many reps/minutes of each exercise I achieved last week ... or couldn’t achieve last session.. He is highly motivated and highly motivational. He gets results. I feel so much better, healthier, and more energized since I began working out with him. I highly, repeat, highly recommend Trainer Alheim unreservedly.
I just started taking Stephans class a few weeks ago - and now Im addicted! Ive never taken an online class, and was always wary of doing so, but this one really changed my mind! Its like having a personal trainer, even though youre in a class with several other people. Stephan takes the time to make sure that everyone is doing the exercise right, and gives helpful suggestions if he sees something isnt quite right. Hes a great trainer, with excellent structure in his class - if you dont have pain afterwards, or the day after - then youre either not doing something right, or youre not taking Stephans class!
I am a 62 year old man, who was overweight and never really exercised! I turned to Stephan services to help me get in shape and see if I can tone my body. I have been with him for the last 3 months ( and will continue) I can honestly say, my body feels rejuvenated. Not only do I see results, many others have commented on how great I look. His focus is on the entire body and tips on healthy eating. I highly recommend his services!
Steve is a professional, knowledgeable and accommodating fitness trainer. His workouts move at a good pace and are adapted for all fitness levels, so everyone feels comfortable. The exercises address general mobility, balance and strength and throughout the class he is able to come up with effective modification as needed. He doesn’t waste any time and while we’re exercising he shares lots of relevant info about technique, posture and breathing. Overall, Steve has a great teaching style and makes the time fly by. My physical health has reaped the benefits of his instruction and I am so grateful!
I highly recommend Steve of Alheim Fitness. I have participated in various forms of training directed by Steve including individual, small group and on-line classes. In each format, Steve has been a very knowledgeable, professional and a considerate instructor. He is very efficient and will individualize a program to meet your needs.
I train with Stephan 3-4 times a week during his mobility and bodyweight strength training classes. I really appreciate the thoughtfulness that goes into each class, how he mixes it up and introduces new exercises to keep things fresh. He incorporates techniques and exercises that you dont normally find from one trainer, such as proper breathing techniques and exercises to maintain joint and back health. This helps keep you healthy in order to keep you healthy. I personally like how well he explains each exercise and how he stresses proper form with each repetition. In the past this is often where I had gotten hurt or worked myself ragged doing things improperly, which led to long periods of inactivity. Ive enjoyed being able to maintain a level of consistent exercise and health.
Stephan is an incredible trainer! Ive been searching for a highly skilled trainer for a long time. As a chiropractor, its refreshing finding someone who doesnt take the mentality of destroying clients for every workout. I feel totally comfortable sending patients who have finished care, and are looking to continue strengthening and improving themselves physically. He has a thorough onboarding session that assesses your current movement capabilities and helps you figure out the best path to your goals, whether it be for weight loss, better mobility, increased strength, or overall robustness. Highly, highly recommend.
Stephan’s workouts are always enjoyable because theres plenty of variety and its never boring. He has a style that is warm and personable. He challenges you to achieve your fitness goals with a balanced approach, both pushing you to succeed, yet patient with the process. He listens well to your needs and is both educational and supportive. His personal training sessions have taught me how to create a varied and effective workout. He consistently explains why were doing what were doing. He is very proactive too! He provides good information about healthy diets, I’m now enrolled in a plant based meal prep program that he recommended and the food is awesome
I have now completed 9 sessions with trainer alheim and first of all, he knows what he doing and you can tell it is his passion. I’ve been involved with athletics/training most of my adult life and he is the only trainer I’ve had who pushes me to the limit (which I asked for lol) but also makes sure to cover every aspect of strength. From mobility to core to stability and balance to cardio to weightlifting. I leave his garage gym feeling the “exercise high”, covered in sweat. His pricing is on point for an advanced level trainer and each hour is so packed with work and even information on nutrition and recovery. Told my husband to get used to this in the budget cause it’s addicting to feel this strong !! I’ve lost pounds and inches and all around just feel amazing. Highly highly recommend trainer Alheim.
Ive been training with Coach Stephan almost 2 years now, primarily taking his Foundational Strength & Mobility classes, but recently joining his Boot Camp & Mobility classes as well. Whether training in person or online, Stephan is thorough, encouraging, and FUN!He focuses on achieving good form, which allows me to safely build up strength & mobility at my own pace. Cardio is always a killer, but his upbeat personality (and Yoda impersonations) keep me moving along. His passion for learning and training keep me coming back!Thanks Coach!
Trainer Alheim is fantastic. Ive been taking his remote Foundational Strength & Mobility class for the past five months, and I always feel refreshed the next day. Coach is personable and encouraging, and he always seems genuinely excited to talk us through why were doing a particular move or how we can modify it to better fit what we need.
When quarantine began, my husband and I knew that we wanted to keep our 15 year old son in top swimming shape. Lets face it - theres a big difference between having a parent telling their teen to move their body and having a trainer provide a specific workout routine geared towards them. We found Trainer Alheim and couldnt be happier. Our son looks forward to his workouts each week and has shown some great improvements in both balance and strength. Trainer Alheim sends regular email communications to both myself and my husband keeping us informed of our sons progress. Trainer Alheim is trustworthy and professional and we would highly recommend him. We cant wait to see our sons times improve when he can get back in the pool!
Coach Stephans online Foundational Strength & Mobility classes are the perfect antidote to the terrible posture I was getting from sitting at work for long periods of time. The stretches are simple yet surprisingly challenging, and three months in, Im hooked on the good feeling I get after every class.His online Boot Camp & Mobility classes are perfect for those who want to get their sweat but maybe (like me) need the extra push from a live trainer. I never thought Id be into a boot camp–style course, but his approach of combining cardio with mobility makes his classes truly unique.Coach Stephans endless patience and careful instruction keep me coming back to his classes, and I couldnt imagine making the same progress in my strength and mobility these last few months without him.
I have been working with Stephan as my trainer two times a week for about 6 months. My strength has gone up, mobility is better, but most importantly I just feel better in everything I do. Treadmill runs are easier, I dont have as many aches in my body and things work well. Stephan is really good at finding weak points, challenging, and building you up, highly recommend him!
I did a functional mobility screen with Stephan and he is great! He knows how to give you a good workout, improve your mobility, and keep you safe at the same time. Ive referred a number of patients of mine to him and they have all positive things to say about him!
Stephen is great! His workouts are very fun and challenging. He explains in great detail on what improvements need to be made, specifically your movement and overall mobility. He explains how those factors are essential to reaching yout fitness goals whether it is weight loss, muscle gain, etc. Highly recommended if you are looking for a new trainer.
Stephan is an excellent trainer. He listens to your goals and adjusts the training accordingly. I am very impressed with all of his knowledge and certifications.
Ive been working out with Steve for about 7 weeks now and each session has brought a new unique challenge to keep the workouts fun yet difficult. Hes clearly an expert at his craft and I would highly recommend training with him!
What a luxury to say you have a personal trainer. I am at the three month, once a week, one hour session period. Trainer Stephan has progressively increased my weights and times to a point of pride in my capabilities. I truly recommend working with him. No way I could be doing this on my own. His knowledge is impressive on nutrition and breathing. The transformation toward greater elasticity, balance and muscle tone has begun. It has been the best investment for my health and longevity.I am glad to have Trainer Stephan in my corner.
