Testimonials

Fitness modeling, and having a fit body has always been important to me, yet it seemed that no matter what I did on my own or with other trainers, I couldn’t get the physique that I desired. Everything changed when I met Ilana Arzt and her Enerjoy Fitness Team! They provided me with unique fundamentals in nutrition, work outs, and motivation that I needed to get real results- and they keep me on track to an endless education on ways to build my health and shape my body, to be an outward expression of the strength that I feel inside! Now, fitness modeling isn’t just an idea for me- it’s a reality, and I can truly say that it is a result of working with Enerjoy!

I’ve lost 20 lbs in 7 weeks, which is really great after years of gaining weight. Best of all, I’ve done it in a healthy way, not a diet, a true lifestyle change of a 180 degree turnaround with healthy food, exercise and total support. Thank you Ilana, you are the best trainer, you know the body and can bring out the very best in everyone!

- Melanie R., Scottsdale

I have been working with the wonderful staff at Enerjoy Fitness for two months and can’t believe the change in me! I have quit smoking, changed my eating patterns and started exercising. I’ve lost a total of 12 pounds and kept it off. No words can express how lucky I feel. I was willing and they changed my life!

- Leann L., Scottsdale

Knowing my body type has helped me learn how to feed it so it nourishes me, not only to lose weight, but to keep it off. Participating in the nutrition program with Christi gave me the confidence and knowledge to live and eat healthy forever.

- Michelle, Scottsdale

I have always struggled with knowing what to eat, what were the right combinations, how much protein versus fat and carbs. The program gave me clear direction and explained the mystery surrounding food that I had. I found out what my body type was, and how to feed it so it nourishes me, not only to lose weight, but to keep it off. Participating in the nutrition program with Christi really gave me the confidence and knowledge to live and eat healthy forever.

- Michelle A., Scottsdale

I was unhappy with my body. I’d failed more diets than I can name. That’s all changed now. When it’s time to work out, I have a smile on my face. I’ve even found a food plan that works for me.

- Liz, Scottsdale

Training with Enerjoy has been the best health decision I’ve made. They’ve entirely changed my body. Working out is one of the highlights of my day. I could go there in the worst mood and within five minutes of being there I’m ready to go.

- Jen, Scottsdale

I want to thank you for all you have done for me....for your passion, your continued support, even when I wasn't in your class...I am a different person thanks to you. That is one thing I am sure of...that the old person, the "20 lb fluctuate" no longer exists. Every morning I step on the scale. And now everything I eat and drink I am aware of. I even know what to expect when I weigh the next morning. I have a real body consciousness. I am proud of the difference. I am sure you are too! Thank you for the great person you are!

- Deb W., Scottsdale

I have been training with Enerjoy for the past 8 months and wanted to increase the number of workouts. Ilana recommended adding boxing. Since adding boxing to my regimen I have accelerated my rate of weight loss. I found boxing to be an enjoyable, though intense, cardio workout! I would recommend a boxing session with Ivan - he is a very knowledgeable trainer who makes each workout session pass quickly!

- Terry C., Scottsdale

I am so thankful to have met Ilana and Christi, and that I made the decision to become involved with Enerjoy Fitness. My life has completely changed. I am no longer an overweight person with no hope. I have broken those barriers and I am totally convinced that anyone who wants to break their own limited physical barriers, whatever they might be, will do it with the help and guidance of Ilana and Enerjoy Fitness!

- Ana P., Scottsdale

I like to describe my time at Enerjoy Fitness as "transformational fun". Really, who would think that losing 25 pounds and 13.29% of my body weight would actually be enjoyable? Thanks to our beautiful Ilana and the wonderful people who work with her, I focused on losing weight through lifestyle changes in a sustainable way, not just dieting and losing fat only to gain it back again later.

Each trainer's unique touch and input made a huge impact on my life, both in terms of the volume of information and direction they gave me, as well as their personal passion for me to achieve my goals with my body. I can definitely recommend Enerjoy's Healthiest Losers program to anyone who wants to lose weight because the hardest part of that process is getting real and being accountable. It is just simply very difficult to change what are often lifelong patterns by yourself. Sharing the journey with others and everyone moving together is what made it fun! Now I can honestly say I have a different conscience about my eating and being physical, and that's forever! Thanks again Ilana for your commitment to all your clients and for your wonderful work changing lives at Enerjoy Fitness.

- Lorna C., Scottsdale

Ilana's unique combination of specific workout routines and precise nutrition really inspired me to change a deeply rooted sentimentality I had around eating habits. After 5 months in her program I lost 4% body fat and gained 4 lb of muscles. Thanks to the guidance of Ilana, Christi and Ivan I could also break the workout habit of pushing myself beyond healthy limits and introduce consistency instead. I feel calmer, more energetic and joyful and allow myself the time to change permanently. Enerjoy Fitness works - thanks to Ilana and her passionate and knowledgeable team.

I don't know if it was the chia seeds or what, but I feel FANTASTIC today! I hiked Pinnacle Peak with no problem! What an awesome experience! I have never had a raw egg in my life; there is a first time for everything right?

- Jennifer V., Scottsdale

Thank you for developing a nutritional supplement plan specifically for me. It has helped tremendously with not only my workouts and recovery time, but has improved my overall well-being. No more anxieties, much better emotional health and I have not been sick in years. Your knowledge is incredible.

- Joe, Scottsdale

When I signed up for Ivan's "Boot Camp", I expected a strict, boring regiment of calisthenics. What I got was a fast-paced, challenging, and ever changing exercise routine that was fun to do. After only a month, I saw a definite increase in my stamina and energy levels, as well as muscle tone. I am not saying the "Boot Camp" won't give you LOTS of sore muscles, but I can definitely say it's fun, challenging, energizing, and very beneficial.

- Sara F., Scottsdale

When I joined Ivan's boot camp, I wasn't certain what to expect. This is an exceptionally challenging fitness routine, geared toward burning calories and gaining muscle. I have had numerous trainers in my past, but I have never worked out at such an intense level. As such; I have seen amazing results. I have lost 2 dress sizes, lost inches over my entire body, and have gained muscles in areas I never knew existed. What I really like about Ivan is that he is extremely encouraging. He knows when to push more, yet knows when to change the activity so he gets the most productivity as possible. This is personal training at its very best! Besides losing weight, I have gained a sense of self confidence and pride in my new healthy lifestyle. Thanks Ivan :)

- Liz R., Scottsdale

For the first time in my life I found the nutrition that really feels good. Christi's knowledge and experience made it easy for me to overcome the initial feelings of missing bread and sweets. After 3 weeks I feel more rest in my nervous system and increased vitality and focus. I dropped 1.5 pounds just over this weekend and I feel great, more relaxed and a little less driven. I will keep track and look forward to new insights and observations.

- Otto S., Scottsdale

I started my diet based on my Metabolic Typing in February 2009, since that date I changed all my food and I immediately started to feel all the benefits. I started to go to the bathroom regularly, I had a problem with my hemorrhoids and they are so much better, I feel more energy, I had hair loss and now this is over. I can see all my body changing and responding every day. I feel so healthy!!! And the most important it was easy to change and prepare my food, I feel I save my money buying the right food for my body!!! It is very excited to eat just the food that you need! Thank you Christi, you are a confident and reliable professional in your area!!! Every time I have a question I just call Christi, and I am so glad to refer her to my family, clients and friends!!!

- Michelle C., Scottsdale

Christi has opened my eyes to cutting-edge nutritional technologies that have been instrumental in boosting my overall health. Having her guidance to tailor a diet that supports my body’s metabolism and nutritional requirements has resulted in permanent weight loss, increased vitality and a sense of wellbeing that I couldn’t have imagined at mid-life. The results I’ve experienced are just not possible with traditional, “one size fits all” diets. This is truly the wave of the future for health, wellness and longevity!

- Cathy R., Scottsdale

This program is absolutely amazing! To be able to finally understand how the foods I used to eat affect my energy levels and my mental outlook on things was truly life changing. I always knew I was hypoglycemic, and taking the Advanced Metabolic-type Assessment helped me better understand how my body processes the food I eat and explained why I am Hypoglycemic. I have been on the program for about a month now and have seen a big change in my weight, energy levels, and my lack of desire to eat sweets, my ability to concentrate, and most of all my patience level with my children. I still have a ways to go, but realize this is a true lifestyle change and it will take time, commitment and most of all a willingness to make adjustments one step at a time! I feel so much better, why should I go back to my old habits that did not work Thank you Christi!

- Kim M., Boston, MA

Thanks for helping me feel A LOT better with a very new way of eating. Since I can remember I had problems with bowel movements and lately it was developing more and more into what my doctors told me to be Irritable Bowel Syndrome. For many years, after learning more about healthy bowels, I added fiber, greens and probiotics to my daily food plan. This seemed to help initially but after a while my colon became more and more irritated… After trying many different diets I got really disappointed and frustrated until I decided to go with Christi and her Metabolic Typing program. A big surprise came after starting to eat according to my Personal Eating Plan. I was surprised that as a fast oxidizer I could eat red meat, raw healthy fats and NOT so big amounts of fruit and salad. But the biggest surprise was that with eating very few fruits and salads, which means less fiber, my bowels are becoming much better every day. Not only do I feel happier throughout the day, I also feel more stable with my energy levels. Thanks Christi, for teaching me a new way to eat so different from what I learned to be healthy but so much healthier.

- Susanna L., Phoenix

In the last few months while working with Christi on my customized nutritional profile I have noticed increased energy and more flexibility when I work out and more stamina when I dance. Christi has helped me end my frustration and my confusion about nutrition. She has a deep passion to pass on all her discoveries. She stands by you while changing your lifestyle step by step, always motivating you and giving you a subtle reminder that you can really do this. Christi is your gal when you are seeking an advanced certified nutritionist/personal trainer with “Max” results!!!

- Linda L., Scottsdale

After 2 years of struggling with my Celiac Disease and Lupus I thought I was going to live with the stomach and joint pain forever. My Doctor's treatment plan was on going steroids and other random perscriptions that continued to only hurt my stomach. I became so depressed and almost gave up the idea of ever thinking I would ever feel normal again.

Since meeting with Christi six months ago and following your nutrition plan and taking all natural Gluten and Soy free vitamins I can finally say I feel better then I ever have, even before my diagnosis! My joints are not as sore and my stomach is healing. I can actually feel it, and I can see it looking less swollen and my energy level is back to normal.

I really want to express my gratitude. Your kindness and level of knowledge was much predicated beyond words.

I now have my life back and I have Christi to thank

- Heather H.

In the beginning of my diet I felt a little frustrated because I thought I should have been feeling and seeing bigger changes in my body. My “aha” moment came when I went off my diet a couple different times in my third week and I felt awful! I became very aware of the benefits of eating the right way for ME according to MY metabolism, oxidization rate, and other factors. Christi formulated a diet to maximize my health and vitality. On top of feeling such an increase in energy and mental clarity I have also lost 7 pounds! Thank you Christi for your expertise and sincere consultations….I feel GREAT!
