I am so thankful for New Mind And Body personal training! They knew exactly what they were doing when they named their place because that is exactly what I got, a new mind set and a new body. When I started my journey, I truly didn’t know what to expect. I have always been athletic growing up. I was very much into sports and staying active. However, after getting pregnant and having my daughter some things got pushed by the wayside and exercise and being in shape were at the top of that list. I have never been to a gym before except in high school when I frequented the weight room for sports but I had no idea what I was doing then and no one really showed me what to do. I came to New Mind And Body for them to teach me, motivate me and to gain an understanding of how to properly exercise so that I would see results. I am 30 years old and when I started at New Mind And Body in January I weighed 146 lbs. I had no energy, I felt like a slouch and I didn’t feel very good about myself and the fact that I had totally let myself go. I did not have a goal weight in mind, I just knew I wanted to get back to feeling like the active person I had always been.

I am absolutely in love with this place and the people here. I just cannot thank them enough and will continue to train with them because they have given me so much and I continue to learn new things with every session. I have not felt this good in 10 years! Physically and Mentally! I feel good, look good and I wake up every morning with tons of energy! With Kathy’s help and guidance with proper meal planning and her assistance with goal setting and all of the trainers knowledge and motivation, I am where I want to be and it only took 5 months to achieve everything I have so far.
I am now 120 lbs and I feel amazing! Not only have I lost the excess fat but I have gained a lot of muscle. I have so much more energy to play with my daughter and I have such a better outlook on everything in life. I am so grateful for everything I learned and gained!

I went to Kathy to strengthen my core, improve my balance, to improve my golf game which had slipped over the last year because of my deteriorated physical condition. What I ended up with after 14 sessions was a complete physical upgrade with nutritional advice that changed my eating habits, and the result that I lost 17 lbs. and feel great. I am 85 years old and I feel that I can play golf and be active for 10 more years. My golf scores have only come down a little but my swing is more consistent and I have my energy for the full 18 holes. The scores will come down if I ever learn to putt. Thanks Kathy Stone!!

Sandy Hufnagle Testimonial https://www.personaltrainerlehighvalley.com/testimonials/sandy-hufnagle-testimonial/ https://www.personaltrainerlehighvalley.com/testimonials/sandy-hufnagle-testimonial/#respond Tue, 23 Apr 2024 19:38:23 +0000 https://www.personaltrainerlehighvalley.com/?p=40311 UNADJUSTEDNONRAW thumb 8684

My name is Sandy Hufnagle and I am 67 years old. I was at an all time low when I saw an add in the newspaper for one on one personal training. I had tried so many things on my own in the past and nothing worked for me so I decided that I needed help from a professional. Not only did I need to lose weight but I was having a lot of problems with acid reflux. When I first spoke to Kathy and found out that she is located near Coopersburg I was a little concerned about the distance because I am from Perkasie. I decided to meet with her anyway to at least see what her program was all about. When I met with Kathy and she explained how her program works, I realized that she was the help that I was looking for. I started training with her August 8th 2015 at 140 lbs. After just one month I had lost 19 lbs. and my acid reflux was gone! In 2 months I lost 40 lbs. and my energy is through the roof! I haven’t felt this good in years!

If you want results, CALL KATHY! Her experience and knowledge as a personal trainer and nutrition specialist has me looking in the mirror again. Kathy’s optional food plan is so simple and easy to follow and her caring and encouragement drives you to do your very best. Looking back, I thank God that I looked in the paper that day because it has changed my life!

Sincerely,  Sandy Hufnagle

Perkasie Pa.

Just wanted to take a moment and thank Kathy Stone. I’ve been working with her for 3 months on my digestive issues, and with the use of FANTASTIC vitamins, and an aloe drink, my acid reflux and gastritis is practically non-existent. In fact after only the first month, had to have my annual stomach scope and my hiatal hernia was actually showing major healing. I owe it to the aloe drink! Then for the past 2 months I began working on healthier eating habits.

Did you know 5 servings of fruits and vegetables each day decreases your chances of getting any type of cancer by 70%? Well it’s true!! In two short months, I am closing in on 25 pounds off now, and am so excited to see where I am going to be 2 months from now. I actually exercise 5 days a week. I always hated it but once you get a routine going you actually look forward to doing it. I’m not in this to get “skinny”, I’m in this to become the best that I can be. The health benefits alone have been a tremendous reward already. So thanks Rc Moore for your post a few months ago that peaked my interest to make a change, and again to Kathy for being such a positive impact on my life! If anyone wants to make a change for the better, I highly recommend you contact Kathy. You will be so glad you did!

So, I bought myself some new clothes…2 to 3 sizes smaller, might I add! I had to clean out my closet to have room to hang them. So I decided to try some old things on. LOLOLOLOL. At first, I laughed hysterically as pairs of pants just fell right back off, one pair after another, as I put them on. Then I thought, this isn’t funny, how did I ever let myself get into this shape!

Grrrrrr!! NEVER AGAIN! My feet only swelled one day at Grange. I had more energy. I ACTUALLY FIT IN THE CAMPER WINDOW when our lock on the door broke. Yep I actually folded myself completely in half and went in through that tiny window. Not bad at 55 years old! Thanks again Kathy Stone for all your help and encouragement. I am so excited to continue to work toward my final goal and to be healthy and feel great`!!

My name is Sean and I am a 17 year old high school student. I found Kathy through one of my fellow classmates who I overheard talking in the hallway about her wonderful personal trainer she goes to and how well it was working for her. she seemed so excited that I just had to interrupt her conversation to ask her for her trainers name and number. After talking to my Mom I immediately called Kathy and got an appointment to come see her the next day. I am approaching 10 months with Kathy. I joined after trying again and again to lose weight, all to no avail. I am 6’2″ and started out at 256 lbs. I now weigh 170;  86 lbs lost! Kathy, with her diet and exercise plan, really is a miracle worker! It’s not like all of those fad diets out there. I have never been hungry throughout this entire process because I am able to eat whenever I want to. I learned that it hasn’t been about how much I eat its been about “what” I was eating. Also, there have been many occasions such as birthdays and holidays that I didn’t stay with the plan and even then, I haven’t gained any of the weight back like I did on fad diets.  The Stone affect program really works!! It’s not just the logistics, but Kathy and her staffs personal touch, that makes the program so special. I am so happy that I found New Mind and Body…it has completely changed how I feel about myself and life. I recommend it to anyone who is serious about entering or maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

I have now lost all the weight I wanted to lose and now we are concentrating on building muscle. I continue seeing Kathy twice a week and in a couple months Kathy will take new pictures that will show my muscle building progress.

In Paula’s own words: “I’ve never felt as good, looked as good, or been in a better head space than I am now. I will be eternally grateful to Kathy Stone and New Mind and Body Personal Training Center.”

The “Stone Affect” diet plan is creating winning losers every day.

Kathy is fanzaltastic! She has helped me to lose 50 lbs after trying various diets and exercises for several years with no luck. She knew what kind of a diet I needed and exactly what exercises would get me the results I wanted. She is very knowledgeable about nutrition and the body and weight loss. She is helping me, at 63, to be in the best shape of my life and to be fit and strong! I just can’t say enough about how wonderful she is and how very thankful I am to have found her! She is a wonderful and caring person who has become a very good friend. I am truly blessed to know her.

Kathy gets 6 out of 5 stars from me!

If you are reading this letter then you are standing in a place they call the studio (I don’t like that word) where New Mind and Body is and where the beginning of magic happens. Don’t judge this place on looks alone. Believe me this magical place has more than enough equipment to get you the results you are looking for.

I came to this place feeling like everyone said I should at my age. An untested weak knee from arthroscopic knee surgery, a weakened shoulder from years of football and mentally drained as my body thickened (I prefer that word) to a robust 285 lbs . Which is way too big for anyone my height and age.

First there’s Kathy who set me straight on the foods I could enjoy and when I should have them. Forget all of the other diets you’ve ever been on, eat only what’s on the lists, get creative, keep a detailed journal and this is big STAY THE COURSE. You’ll rapidly feel great and see weight loss results like I have.

We worked out 3 times a week and every workout as crazy as it sounds was welcome, fun and over fast. She tested me and I tested her. She adjusted to me and I listened to all of her ideas on training. I feel as though we became partners both working as hard as time allowed, moving closer to our goals, never disappointing each other, showing her what her training methods could really achieve.

I lost 55 lbs. in 16 weeks of training, (including a week’s summer vacation) averaging 3.44 lbs. per week while packing on some real muscle. My knee and shoulder felt fantastically strong and without pain. I am no longer mentally and physically fatigued. I had my blood work done and the results were all great. I truly believe that this place Kathy created  (whom I consider a new friend) gave me a new life. Yes, you found it. This is the place.

March 24, 2002

Dear Kathy,

I just wanted to let you know how much my wife, Mary Ellen, and I appreciate the physical training program that you and Yvonne Jackowski provided to our daughter, over the past several months. Before Eleanor started coming to your training facility, I know she had some doubts about her ability to pass the upper body strength requirements for admission to the Air Force Academy. To be honest, I had some doubts as well. However, when Eleanor and I first came to meet you and I saw that you had already looked up the Air Force Academy’s physical fitness requirements on the Internet, I knew that you would see to it that Eleanor received the training she would need.

As you know, Eleanor passed the Air Force Academy’s physical assessment exam in late January with room to spare on all events. Mary Ellen and I are convinced that she wouldn’t have done it without the training program you and Yvonne put her through. Finally, about ten days ago, Congressman Pats Toomey called to let her know that she was getting an appointment to the Air Force Academy. The official notification from the Academy arrived in the mail a few days ago. I’ve enclosed a copy of the letter so you can see the end result of your work with Eleanor.

I’ve also enclosed a copy of an article that appeared in Saturday’s Morning Call about Hanover Elementary School in Bethlehem. As a former Hanover student, Eleanor was asked to speak at a reception to honor outstanding test scores achieved by last year’s fifth graders at school. The timing was perfect, since she was able to encourage youngsters by telling them about her goal to become an astronaut, and about her recent admission to the Air Force Academy. As you can probably tell, Mary Ellen and I are pretty proud of her.

Once again, Kathy, you have our thanks for the part you played in Eleanor’s successful admission to the Air Force Academy. Beyond providing her with the strength training, you and Yvonne also gave her much more confidence in her overall physical abilities, and you have both made a lasting impression on her as two outstanding female role models. Eleanor is now diligently doing the strength exercises she learned at your facility in our basement. That coupled with the aerobic conditioning now that the soccer season has started should keep her in good shape until she starts her basic cadet training at the Air Force Academy in June.

We’ll keep you updated on Eleanor’s future progress. Who knows, maybe someday she may be able to invite you to Florida to watch her being launched in outer space!

Sincerely,

Charles J. Kunesh
