"In 3 months, I’ve lost 13 pounds and feel better about myself, both physically and mentally, than ever before. Prior to LeanDream, I had no idea how to properly strength train, but Alan has absolutely changed that. Mixed in with the cardio days, I am getting a great all-around workout. I’ve signed up for another 3 months, and am excited to continue working with Alan on my way to a healthy life!"

"My name is Young Paik with The Educe Group. In addition to being a consultant in our firm, I also serve as our organization’s health and wellness program coordinator. In our 10-week healthy activity programs, my colleagues and I record our individual goals for the amount of minutes we’ll exercise each week.

We form teams based on these goals, and then, at the end of each week, we compete to see who met or exceeded – by % - our fitness goals. Most recently, several of our participants chose to also be a part of the LeanDream program and formed a team. And the impacts were evident throughout. For the LeanDream team, the program results were markedly consistent: even taking into account that they were going to be on an exercise program, individuals on average exceeded their weekly minutes of exercise goal by 121%. Week to week, their team put up noticeably consistent numbers not only as a group but individually. And I can tell you that they were more consistent week-to-week than in prior programs. Additionally, all of my colleagues were extremely happy with Alan’s professionalism and expertise in designing their programs and advising them along the way. It was very clear to me that Alan really cares about everyone in the LeanDream program and their plans for better health and exercise.

As a coordinator, I really appreciated the greater consistency right off the bat for our LeanDream participants, which in any wellness program is often the hardest thing. Alan and the LeanDream program proved to me that the results – and the personalized attention - are there and worth it. So thank you, Alan and LeanDream for helping people in our organization start living a healthier tomorrow today! "

"I've worked with a trainer in person for over a year now, and you have given me better direction, a better, more custom and personalized workout plan, and my trainer is just going to have to accept the fact that I'm using you.

In the past 3 months, I have become stronger and more focused on my workout plan. Alan, through the LeanDream program provides amazing support, follow up and guidance to accomplish the best results. I feel more comfortable using gym equipment and have made a personal commitment to maintain a regular workout/exercise routine, ongoing. Thank You Alan - you are inspiring!"


- Shannon, 40, Maryland

"I leave the gym SO SORE afterwards but it has made me feel a lot better at work the next day! So far 4 times a week has been working great and I intend to keep going this way. The exercises were honestly so easy to understand and perform at the gym; I uploaded them to my iPhone and I follow them the exact way you have them written out for me. I have been already starting to feel a small difference!! Can you tell I'm very motivated by this? I want to thank you for your help with this, it is honestly the greatest thing for organized freaks like me, I tend to do better when there is a set schedule/plan to follow and so for me, this has been absolutely great!!!"

- Laureine, 23, Maryland

"Having experience with other personal trainers it’s refreshing to work with Alan because he looked at my goals and created a plan to complement my training schedule. The customized program I received targets specific muscle groups used during the demanding stages of a triathlon. Upon receiving the training program it’s obvious he isn't going through the motions of sending a generic workout. His very affordable, high quality program paired with enthusiasm and sincerity for you to achieve your goals are fantastic tools for anyone to achieve their LEANDREAM."

- Alicia, 27, Virginia

"Thanks to LeanDream I was able to get a customized, personal workout to prepare me to hike the three highest peaks in Africa, Mt. Kenya, Mt. Meru and Kilimanjaro. I enjoyed doing most of the simple exercises in the comfort of my own home with the weights, yoga mat and jump rope I had. I saw results after just a few weeks of incorprating LeanDream's suggestions into my workout. If you do the work, put in the time, and trust in LeanDream's advice you can achieve your goal. Thanks LeanDream. I made it up all 3 Peaks in 3 Weeks and had the most amazing experience!"

- Sarah, 29, Connecticut

"I just want to give you an update. I'm going to give you a big smack on the cheeks the next time I see you. I fit into pants that I haven't been able to fit into in two years! I received several comments in the last few months, so I just wanted to let you know THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! After this month, I'll be getting another workout."

- Colantha, 34, Maryland

"I have always been a person that was inconsistent with my workouts. I would work out for a month or two and then not bother again for a while. When I got engaged four years ago, I decided it was time to get serious about working out and I began training with Alan. With his knowledge and constant support I was able to get in shape for my wedding day. He helped hold me accountable during each workout so that I would continue to push myself even when I wasn't feeling up to it. Exercise and healthy habits are now a part of my everyday life! If Alan can motivate me, I am confident that he can motivate you too!"

- Lori, 28, Virginia

"Wow, I had no idea I could get this kind of workout at home without any equipment. I was dripping with sweat!"

- Greg, 37, Maryland

"I have never met anyone in my life more dedicated to the knowledge and pursuit of health and fitness than Alan. In the two years that I had Alan as a workout partner, he coached me into the best shape of my life. And now with LeanDream, I can have Alan right there with me again, even from across the country. I can't wait to see the results!"

- Gabe, 27, California

"I have had the pleasure of knowing Alan for 8+ years and have worked out with him as both a competitive athlete and for recreation. There are very few people that I have encountered, as a college or professional athlete, that match Alan's passion and knowledge for health and fitness training. He is a Health Nut who lives what he preaches when it comes to fitness and training. I have no doubt his workouts will keep your body guessing and push you to reach your desired goals."

- Kyle, 26, Virginia

"Dedication and Success describes Alan's passion for fitness. From personal experience, Alan's determination and passion is contagious and helped my success as a Division I Baseball catcher. He is a driven person both in and out of the gym, which has even helped me in medical school today. I know he can, and will, motivate you to produce a better body and a better mind. His relentless desire for physical fitness will be invested in anyone pursuing LeanDream.

-Ryan 25, Philadelphia

"I've lost 7 pounds in two weeks just by following the dietary advice you gave me!"

"Running a 5 K has been on my list of things to do … and yesterday I finally did it!  Today, I am injury free, incredibly happy with myself and must give credit to LeanDream and Alan Zimmerer.

Running a 5K was not my only goal.  When Alan designed my personalized workout plan, he factored in all of them.   I have been following Alan’s workout plan(s) (cardio and weights) for 6 months and I look good, feel good and have remained healthy and injury free.  Alan is professional, patient and very knowledgeable of the human body.

If you’re looking for a personal trainer, look no further.  Let Alan Zimmerer and LeanDream help you reach your personal fitness goals.  You’ll learn exercise techniques that you’ll use forever, have fun in the process, and feel great.

By the way, I am a 60+ female and came in second in my age group yesterday.  Thanks Alan!!!
