Testimonials
"After a year at CFC, I put my fitness to the test and took my teenage granddaughter shopping the day after Thanksgiving. We shopped all day, at two different malls, and I wasn’t tired, WOW! Thank you CFC for providing the place and thank you staff for providing the inspiration.”

"After joining CFC in June of 2009, I have received many good health results. My diabetic tests have come back excellent, with remarks from my endocrinologist saying "supurb, normal, and great job!” I owe these results to the Tai Chi instructors Kelly and Sherry, who really care about our health. Tai Chi has made such a difference in my life in many ways. I have also lost 15 pounds! Thank you so much!”

" I recently had a bad fall in my home. The results of my fall could have been much worse if I had not been working out for the past 6 months. I do 3-5 hours of Water Aerobics and GTS classes every week.
Thanks to all of the people at Cleburne Fitness Center, both the staff and all of the new friends I have made, I have been able to keep up with my regular routine of exercise. For all of the seniors especially, I challenge you to get up out of your chair and come on out to CFC. I have learned that exercise is the key to keeping your bones strong. You will soon see differences in your total health, both mental and physical regardless of your age. I have lost both pounds and inches but most of all I have gained confidence and self-esteem I myself.”

"I do like the new cardio equipment and the set-up of the gym. I especially like that CFC is now recycling plastic bottles. I made that suggestion some time ago after I realized how many plastic bottles go through the gym in any given week. I have been a member for quite some time and I like that CFC strives to remain innovative while continuing to focus on peoples' health and well being."

"Dear Mr. Simmerman,
I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how lucky you are to have a person in your employment such as Rena Noatch. She is a tremendous trainer as well as asset to any organization. She spoke with me for a couple of moments to get some background on me & what I was looking for. The next week when we met at a revised appointment time she had put together a challenging workout that worked with my current physical limitations while still pushing me like I had only hoped to be pushed.
I recently got clarification from a doctor about a physical condition and told Rena I would need assistance after surgery to get back into condition. She was honestly concerned about my condition and said she would help me get to where I needed.
You are very blessed to have such a fine person working for you."
Sincerely,
Sheena Gossett

"In 2005 I was sent to Cleburne Physical Therapy for a recurring back problem I had for approximately 12 years after surgery. I worked with Janice in the pool and then joined CFC to keep up my exercises that she had given me. About 2 years later I injured my shoulder and worked with Steve to rehab it. The shoulder was very slow to get better so after a year the surgeon thought he might have to operate again on it. I talked with Janice and she suggested working with Rena to hopefully recuperate.
So, in March of 2008 my wife and I started working with Rena to overcome my disabilities. Progress was slow and frustrating but we stuck with it for a year and then moved into to the G Fit program. Now we find that even though we are very tired after our classes we are able to do things that we couldn’t do for years. I can now walk and work all day at the ranch without thinking of back or shoulder pain.
I can also handle the heat and aerobic activities without a thought. My balance is better than it has been in years. When did all of this happen? I think it was gradually attained without noticing the subtle changes. Thanks for giving us back our health."

"I started doing water aerobics on May 25, 2009. I’ve lost over 20 lbs and a dress size. I have more stamina and I don’t hurt all of the time. I have arthritis and joined in hopes of accomplishing all of the above.
When I cleaned house, it was taking me 3 or more hours due to pain. Do a little, rest. Do a little, rest. Now it takes me 2 or less hours. I still have to rest but not as often and not as long.
I also have a smoothie at their Royale Smoothie Cafe for lunch sometimes. I still eat whatever I want, just not as much. I have a little more energy and I feel better about myself. Thanks CFC!”

"Both Cleburne Fitness Center and Cleburne Physical Therapy have made a big difference in my life. In 2005, doctors found a brain tumor in my head. After surgery, I went to CPT for several months to re-learn movement patterns and gain strength. Because of my disability, my new insurance provided a FREE membership to Cleburne Fitness Center thru the SilverSneakers program. I was able to continue my rehab at CFC and gain strength back. In 2008, I had to undergo another brain surgery. This time I went in prepared. With the help of CFC, I gained 20 lbs before my surgery (good weight!). Because of this, I was able to recover within 1 month of surgery and start back at the club. I am currently using the facility to rehab again. I am gaining back my strength, my vision, my balance and so much more. Thanks CFC!”
