Smith & Esch Fitness Systems

Have been going here for just over a year, and honestly, I cannot give enough high praise for the place.
I am a chiropractor in the area and Bill and I have great conversations about an array of different topics after our sessions in regards to the human body and nutrition.
His overall knowledge and understanding about the body, and also about nutrition is unmatched. The class is always changing, always adapting to new things. The approach he has towards your fitness is much different than others, and I love it. He cares more about mobility and techniques in your exercises and that is how it should be. As this lowers the risk of injury and also ensures that you are doing things correctly, which will lead to more strength and mobility. There is no «standard» set, it is based on you and how you personally perform and how you can build from that; in a sense you against yourself.
It is open 6 days a week, with Thursday’s being a mobility day, typically yoga or Pilates, and other forms of active recovery, which is crucial and something that not everyone even thinks about adding to their workout plans, but definitely should. Mobility is something that we as a society have lost due to sitting 8 hours a day. While I personally have seen improvements in all my workouts since starting there, my overall mobility is what I have seen the most improvement.
I have yet to have any personal training there, as I only do the classes, however as far as I can tell, those that do personal training have nothing but high praises as well.
