Cristi Sims - Manager

I am excited to be a part of the Snap Fitness family here in Davidson.   I am a Lake Norman native and mother of three beautiful children.   I have been selling Real Estate for the past 9 years.   I obtained a minor in Dance, along with a B.S. in Marketing Management.  My passion for health and fitness led me to obtain my Personal Trainer Certification in 2001.  One of my favorite things, is to see people make a commitment to their health and work to better their lives.

I love being a part of Snap Fitness Davidson.  Amie and Vic are such wonderful people and do a lot to promote health and fitness in the community.  When not here at the gym, I am busy assisting my husband with his Real Estate and Property Management business.  We have a wonderful daughter who is a recent graduate of Catawba College where she was a member of the Women’s soccer team.

I could have posed for just the right shot all day but this picture of me finishing a 5K says it all! If someone would have told me in February that I would soon run two 5Ks, work out regularly and change my eating habits, I would have rolled my eyes (and a few other parts of my body).

Since I "re-joined" Snap in March and started working with Marie Conrad, I not only lost 12 pounds but have trimmed inches and gained confidence beyond my expectations. Marie has just the right combination of "tough" and "love" to keep me coming back and experiencing the transformation.  I'm not quite at the end of my journey but I am much farther ahead than I was two months ago.

Marie can be seen just behind me in the recent Davidson Town Day 5K.  She came to support me, to ensure that I did not quit and encourage me to the finish line.  It ain't pretty but that's ME, 53 years old, finishing a 5K after just two months of training! Winning the Biggest Loser contest at Snap was a bonus. The real prize is realizing the new me!  Thanks, all!

CHRIS & ANGELA NORMAN

Chris and I joined Snap Fitness because we wanted a local gym that was convenient, affordable, and had a pleasant atmosphere.  I really appreciate that I can run in and get my workout done quickly because I do not have to wait on my favorite machines.  I also like the friendliness of the staff and other patrons.  It's just a great neighborhood gym that fits our lifestyle.

KEVIN ELDER

Since joining Snap Fitness at the end of April (that's not even 2 months yet), I have lost 15 lbs. I visit the gym every day at lunch with a friend for weight training, and almost every evening with my wife to get my heart rate going for a while. Before I joined Snap, I always thought it would be hard to keep myself motivated enough to go to a health club every day, but since joining, I find it more difficult to keep myself AWAY. I haven't felt this good in years. Everyone on the staff has been great, you always make us feel welcome, and like part of the big Snap family. Thanks for everything!

The TRX system is the most complete fitness routine I’ve experienced.  It’s a total body workout – including cardio, core, strength, flexibility, balance and endurance.  Small changes in the routine allow people at all fitness levels to participate and be challenged.  The workouts change each class, and can include tools such as medicine balls and kettle bells.  The staff at SNAP Fitness is able to quickly evaluate each participant and adjust individual workouts to account for varying levels of fitness, goals and limitations (such as injuries).  

KIM & PEGGY DOLPHIN

I have worked with many trainers over the years. All have been very good and have had their areas of expertise. As you know, I recently completed a series of training sessions with Heidi Nyquist, and I could not have been more pleased with the results that Heidi helped me obtain. Over 15 pounds of weight loss, 8% reduction in body fat and many inches have melted away. I feel I reached these results because Heidi listened to my needs and devised training programs continuously throughout the training period to help me reach my objectives.  Of all the trainers I have used at many different gyms, I feel Heidi excels beyond comparison because she understood my goals and focused on what I wanted, not what she wanted to do for the day. 

Thank you Snap Fitness and to Heidi for creating a new me! I will use Heidi again and would highly recommend her to any member of Snap Fitness.

I had always rationalized that having a personal trainer was a waste of time and money.  Boy was I wrong!  Working with Marie, twice a week for 30 minutes each time, has made a huge difference in my life.  I have gotten stronger, regained mobility that I thought I had lost permanently, and I’ve lost 40 pounds. Most of all, it’s been fun, because Marie makes the workouts both challenging and interesting – a very worthwhile investment of my time and money!

Set Goals, Stay Focused – and Get Results!

What I love about Heidi is she always stays in tune with your personal needs by setting specific goals according to your body type and stamina to keep you focused to get the best results possible!  She is excellent at challenging your mind and body without risking any injury.  She knows just how much to push!  I feel like she is a part of my family by the way she nurtures and cares for my health and well being.  I have NEVER, NEVER, NEVER in my life (including when I was 16 yrs old) felt THIS HEALTHY, FIT AND PERSONALLY SATISFIED with my body than since I have trained here at Snap Fitness with Heidi Nyquist.

Thanks to the staff at Snap Fitness it is always friendly and the environment clean and fresh.  It makes for my third home.  Yes, Mr. Starbucks, you’ve been pushed to 4^th.

Just as one final thought I never imagined I would be one of those people that could ever afford to have my own personal trainer, but I trimmed up a few expenditures (hair, nails, Starbucks) that I could do cheaper myself or less often and am so glad I did!  The adage at the top of the page works for more than just working out!

I can already see changes after doing TRX for only 2 months. I get EXCITED to come to the gym and work out now. TRX keeps your body guessing because you get a different work out every time. It works muscles that you didn't even know you had. TRX has helped strengthen my core and it helps you tone every muscle. I have also noticed that running is much easier since I have started TRX. I would DEFINITELY recommend TRX to everyone.

I can come morning, noon, and night.  My own key, my own TV.  It's in my backyard.  Machines are great, great trainers, don't feel intimidated, affordable!

BRIAN GARDNER

I wanted to thank you and your team for the great experience and welcoming atmosphere you have created at your Davidson Location.  The convenience of Snap in helping me balance my family, work and fitness schedule has definitely paid dividends.

I embarked on a journey at the beginning of this year between Janurary 6, 2010 and May 11, 2010.  I reduced my overall weight by 30 lbs.  I believe Snap Fitness played an integral part in my success. 

A special thanks to Heidi for the advice, coaching and encouragement.

Thank you.

JULIAN AND PATRICIA GAMBLE

At first we were a bit skeptical. How could a gym that was less than half the size of a regular gym give us the challenge we were looking for? Well, SNAP immediately impressed us by keeping things simple. Friendly and knowledgable staff? Check. State of the art equipment? Check. Clean and safe environment? Check. Competitive membership fees? Check. These reasons are just a few of many as to why we chose SNAP fitness to be our new home.

SHAD & CHRISTY AUL

Shad and Cristy love Snap Fitness Davidson because it is close, convenient, and has the best equipment in town.

I am so happy with the results I have achieved from my workouts with Marie as my trainer.  When I began to work with Marie about a year ago, my goal was to build more upper body strength, but I have achieved more than that.  Marie has strengthened my core and my lower body as well as my upper body.  Each week I look forward to my sessions.  I never know what new exercises Marie will have in store for me!  She keeps the routines interesting and challenging and the results are terrific!?

Amie, I want you to know how much I am enjoying working-out at Snap Fitness.

About 1979 I was first introduced to Nautilus-type equipment by a next-door neighbor in Up-state New York. He had just won the title of Mr. America for body- building.

Based on his recommendation I joined a fitness club and learned the correct and safe way to workout. Since then I have belonged to fitness clubs everywhere I have lived (including overseas). Just for the record I am an elderly gentleman and have never had a bodybuilding objective _ just good physical fitness. Over the years the equipment has changed and improved. Your selection of Cybex equipment is superb. It “works” for me!

Snap Fitness is convenient (close to home), the best equipment, membership is very reasonable (and capped), and the facility is modern and clean with great ambience.

My orientation with Marie was very professional and we set some achievable goals.I plan to be there about every day alternating walking and light- weight training.

I am delighted to meet you and your staff.

I have been using TRX for about 2 months and the results started to show after just two sessions. You workout every muscle in your body all at once. Working with TRX, I have become a lot more toned and have added much more muscle. Pairing TRX with cardio work, I am in the best shape of my life. 

Throughout high school and college, I constantly lifted weights and trained for sports, for hours at times. TRX is amazing. You work your whole body in less time than working out on your own; and you see results much quicker. There were times in the past where I would not want to go lift and became very bored with it; not TRX.  Not only do you get results fast, but you have fun with working out too. TRX is by far the most fun I have had while exercising and I would HIGHLY recommend it to any Snap Fitness member!

I had trained quite a bit in the past and use to read quite a bit on the subject.  So for me, getting a trainer was more to help keep me motivated and accountable. I wasn’t really expecting to learn much more but was in for a surprised. During our initial assessment, Dave Fairhall pinpointed that I had deeper underlying issues with my posture, balance, symmetry, and everyday functional mobility.  I had become use to compensating for these limitations and hadn’t realized how much they were lowering my quality of life. When Dave started training with me to work to improve them, I was very pleased to regain some of the mobility I had lost over the years due to various conditions and illnesses I have / had.  Dave is very knowledgeable in a wide array of training areas and it’s quite apparent that he reads to continually upgrade his knowledge and methods.  I would recommend Dave as a personal trainer to my family and friends to help them reach any of their fitness goals, but especially those who have mobility issues and want to improve upon their functional limitations.

I have been working with Diana for 6 months and am very pleased with my experience. I have lost over 10 pounds and inches everywhere! She has helped me stay focused and encouraged during my time with her. She is great motivation and I look forward to every workout with her! I look forward to many more months with Diana!
