Angie Lost 70lbs, 11% of Her Body Fat and Gained a New Sense of Self Confidence!
"I knew after just the first week this would be different. It would be different than Weight Watchers. It would be different than TrueStar. It would be different than U Weight Loss. It would be different than Beverly Hills. You can see why my husband was reluctant..... Over the years we’d invested in various weight loss regiments. Most of them worked, but none of them stuck.
So what was different about Proactive? I’ve asked myself the same question for a year now. The Proactive experience has been a fulfilling journey, and weight loss is just one small part of the benefits.
It’s not the cheapest program I’ve tried, but it’s definitely the most valuable. It’s not the easiest thing I’ve done, but it’s definitely the most rewarding. Emerson’s youthful energy and absolute passion for my well-being was obvious from the start. Ever see someone in action and realize they’re doing exactly what they’re meant to do? That’s Emerson. He was meant to motivate people and help them improve their quality of life, and that’s exactly what he does.
What’s amazing to me is that at 46 years old I get as much out of Emerson’s bootcamp as the 20 year olds and 30 year olds who also dedicate themselves. What’s also amazing is the friends we’ve made over the past year.
There is a bond that forms quickly among the bootcamp members, and it’s infectious. Emerson is the core, but everyone involved inspires each other and motivates each other and celebrates each other’s achievements.
When I first started my weight was 225 pounds.... At 5’4” tall – that’s just too much. One year later I weigh 155 pounds, and I’m in the best shape I’ve ever been in."
"I was kind of nervous ... but after that first class I was hooked! It was a tough class, but it was tough in a different way. I love the format of the class – what I mean is the ‘HIIT’ type of training you do. It makes the class manageable, really push for a short length of time, then recover.
I definitely feel stronger and more co-ordinated and so proud that I am dragging tires and running hills. Definitely not Jane Fonda type aerobics LOL
On a deeper level, being able to do this with Nicole has been a lot of fun and I think she is proud of me too! I know she can kick my butt in endurance and speed, but I can give her a run for her money on some strength exercises.... a little competition is fun.
Lastly, you know the saying ‘like attracts like’ and that proves the be very true with your followers – a great bunch of people to share this experience with!!
I would absolutely encourage my family, friends and associates to try your classes – and for those I have already spoken to, I highlight the very positive environment. Lots of support and no one is judging you – regardless of your physicals abilities"
8 Week Transformation
She Created New Habits, Lost 8lbs and 5% of her body fat in 8 weeks!
"I was nervous coming to bootcamp for the first time. It was really tough and I thought I was going to die after the first session. I was so out of shape. I had given up on getting back into shape. I was unhappy with how I looked and how my clothes fit.
I did not expect to come as far as I have. If I had not come to Emerson's boot camp, I would still be sitting on the couch eating chocolate after a stressful day at work.
There have been many days when I have come home from work exhausted and have come to boot camp anyway - always leaving feeling de stressed and so much better. I have replaced eating chocolate with working out.
I have lost weight, gained muscle and am starting to love how I feel in my clothes. We have changed our diet and have started eating better as a family. I feel like my husband and I are positive role models for our kids - teaching them healthier habits.
I started running again. Something I loved to do and never thought I would be able to do again. I can do push ups and lift tires!
Never say never!
Thanks Emerson and Charlotte!"
Kortnie Gained Strength, Support...And Abs!
"Four months ago I wouldn't even imagine being where I am now. Proactive training and nutrition has taken my life and flipped it positive side up. Not only do I feel great about my body, I have ten times the energy when I wake up every morning. My goal was to gain strength and agility for basketball but I have done so much more than that. Emerson has pushed me beyond what I thought I could ever do, he makes me feel strong and pushes me to work hard. Through this program I have learned to never give up and with the right encouragement I could do anything.
The experience I have gotten with the people from Bootcamp is unexplainable with words. The dedication, support, push, and love each and everyone gives every night is amazing. This is the best kind of fitness hands down."
Kelly Changed Her Body In Just 8 Weeks!
"I would highly recommend anyone looking to get in shape this summer in Kitchener/Cambridge area to sign up at Proactive Training and Nutrition. After going to weekly boot camp classes with Emerson Petri for almost a full year, I see extreme differences in my entire body - physically and mentally as well! His motivation, energy, positive attitude and challenging workouts each week cannot be matched! The group environment is so inspiring to keep going and coming back for more!!! Workouts can be tailored to your fitness level as you progress and the outdoor bootcamps are SO much fun! Cannot say enough good things - please check it out! :)"

Nate Lost 30lbs In 8 Weeks!
"Just want to take a minute and thank you again for the job you have done for me. Your workouts proved to be the most motivating and enjoyable way for me to get fit, stay interested and commit long term. It sounds silly and all yet I have never felt this fit and healthy ever before and I feel great about myself. Yes I worked hard and was disciplined with my eating habits, yet it was you that sparked my desire to do so."
"My mind was blown when I saw my results! I can't thank you enough for helping me find a way to get those results. You are legit and I owe you big time."

Jessica Noticed Faster Weight Loss!
"I have spent the past five years exercising five or six times a week through cycling, a gym membership, yoga, weekend hikes, and morning walks in an effort to lead an active and healthy lifestyle. Having been intimidated to work out with others, going to the group sessions was definitely out of my comfort zone. I was surprised how much I liked the class, and found that it was easy to continue with my original exercise plan for pleasure. Adding in Emersons Classes to my schedule resulted in stronger weight loss and muscle building results.
Having completed two seasons of group workouts, I’m more willing to try new things, and with more energy. Emerson’s classes are unlike anything I’ve tried before with a true focus on being good to your body through nutrition and exercise.
I would recommend Emerson’s class for anyone who is serious about making changes in their lifestyle, and who will commit to the program the way Emerson will commit to you. Partnering with Charlotte for nutrition is an incredible business expansion and will surely benefit anyone looking to kick up their nutrition as well."
Tessa's 12 Week Transformation
"As a dancer, I have always been an active person. However I struggled with losing my “freshman 15” and turned to Emerson for help getting back into my previous shape. With all the high intensity interval training and resistance training at boot camp, not only was I able to get back into my previous shape; I actually surpassed what I used to look like, and am currently in the best shape I have ever been in. I couldn’t imagine looking like this when I started training and I’m so happy that I began my fitness journey with the help of Emerson.
His extensive fitness knowledge and motivational support will surpass your expectations and have you attaining your goals in no time. The workouts Emerson leads at boot camp are always challenging, fun, and different every time you go. I thoroughly enjoy how Emerson incorporates high intensity cardiovascular exercise combined with resistance training; as this provides a full body workout with toning your muscles at the same time. While training with Emerson, not only have I changed my body for the better, I have acquired a great deal of new confidence within myself. I have been lucky to become a member of the 2014 CFL Hamilton Tiger Cats Cheerleading Team, and couldn’t have done it without the help and support of my friend and trainer Emerson Petri. If you are contemplating training with Emerson, I can assure you it will be your first step to success with achieving a healthier and fit body. I had so much fun at boot camp last summer, and can’t wait for boot camp to start up again this year!"

"I am a mother of 2 boys, and have enrolled in a few bootcamp classes in the past, but they were never as intense as Emerson's bootcamp! I have always walked away losing anywhere from 4-6lbs at every other bootcamp which lasted 12 weeks. I started Bootcamp with Emerson in June of 2013 for 10 weeks and Lost an amazing 14Lbs!!!! Not to mention 3 dress sizes!!! I am thrilled to have made the decision to Join Bootcamp, but most of all, happier that it was with Emerson! His motivation, enthusiasm and care for individuals is truly Amazing!!! Thank you so much Emerson for changing my Life!!! You are Awesome! Cant wait to start up again this year!"
