Laura P. | Personal Trainer Raleigh NC

My name is Laura and I am a ISSA Certified Personal/Fitness Trainer. I service Raleigh, North Carolina and surrounding areas such as Knightdale, Rolesville, and Wake Forest.

For me, fitness was never an easy task. Everyone around me seemed to have all these incredible/distinguishable skills and I was just...well...ordinary and to be quite honest a little awkward. In my mind, sports were for "talented" people and gyms were for "muscle heads". Notice how I used the parentheses in that last sentence!

For many years I tried to manage my weight through diet alone. One fad diet after the other only to find myself starting back at square one a few weeks later. It was overwhelming, depressing, and incredibly frustrating. After a while the diets stopped working and I no longer recognized the person staring back at me in the mirror. I knew something needed to change. I needed to use a different approach in order for me to reclaim my life. Thus began my journey into the health and fitness world.

Now I see those struggles were necessary so I could become the person I was meant to be. I became a trainer so I can help others like myself push through barriers to reach their ultimate goals. From weight loss to pain management I am here to help.
