Reformed This Couch Potato 1/4/2009

About 3 years ago I decided to again try to prolong my life by beginning a regular exercise program, a goal I had set for myself many times in the past and at which I had always failed. I researched personal trainers in my locale (Galleria area) and picked Chisholm because I liked what he said on his website. He got me started exercising regularly and has made the experience work for me as we are still meeting 3X week and I am 40 lbs. lighter and in a lot better shape. Chisholm is a no nonsense guy, but has a keen sense of my limits (I am 65 years old). I admit I don't relish exercise, but then I don't miss appointments either. I think a lot of this has to do with my feeling I am going to have a good time working out with him and he's going to keep me moving at a pace that I can handle. more

Personal Trainer with Determination 1/4/2009

After years of struggling with my weight, I decided to get the help that I needed by hiring a personal trainer. Luckily, I found Chisholm on City Search, after meeting with him, I knew that he would be the right fit for me. I enjoy working out with Chisholm and he never lets me get bored, he also makes me accountable for my training when I miss, which we all need! Pros: Great price for gym more

Excellent Personal Trainer 6/21/2008

Chisolm offers a very disciplined regimen that in my opinion has shown significant results. I have recommended him to several friends and they have found him to be as beneficial to their personal program as I have. I highly suggest Citifit for anyone looking for concrete results from an excellent personal trainer. more

Want to see your body transformed? Look no further! 6/17/2008

I can't say enough good things about Chisholm. In a matter of twelve 30-minute sessions, he has transformed my body like no other trainer has. If I could rate this guy higher than 5 stars, I would. The man doesn't play...it's nonstop for 30 minutes! You leave drenched and proud of yourself because you survived ""The Chisholm""! All kidding aside, he is great at what he does. Trainer Extraordinaire. Hands down. His rates are comprable to others out there, but you won't get the results he can offer. Period. Pros: great location - right off of 610 between San Felipe and Woodway more

Great trainer 3/6/2008

Training with Chisholm was a great experience. Chisholm quickly puts you at ease and is easy to get along with. My favorite part of every training session is that each is unique and different from the one before. I never got bored or dreaded the thought of doing some particular exercise at our next session because it was always different. Chisholm pushes you to work hard and not give up, but doesn't over do it either. After every workout I always felt satisfied that I had worked a lot of muscles and my body would see the benefits. I think his prices are pretty affordable if you don't consider the additional monthly membership fee; however, I would guess it is still comparable to fees at other facilities. I would definitely recommend Chisholm to other people. more

Knowledgeable & Challenging 1/23/2008

I have used several personal trainers and Chisolm is by far the most knowledgable, motivating and challenging. You rarely do the same complete workout twice, which is great if you get bored like I do. I also like that he publishes is rates on his website, which are very reasonable. The gym is clean, nice and never crowded. I've been going to him for 4 months and will continue to do so. Pros: Professional, knowledgeable, great rates, clean facility more

Great Trainer! 1/20/2008

Chisholm has been great! I have had several trainers over the years and he is the first that has kept it interesting and challenging enough to keep me coming back. Great motivator and trainer! If you are going to some of the ""big box"" gyms and using the trainers there, this is in an a completely different league. Pros: Easy access, best trainers, clean, well kept. Cons: A little costly for the dues. I only use the gym for the two days training, pay the same! more

Small, comfortable studio gym 1/16/2008

I used Chisolm McDonald as a personal trainer for over 5 months combined. Hes relaxed, cool, but tough. He knows your fitness level and how to push you without making you uncomfortable. If you live anywhere close to the galleria (west loop) area, I recommend you check it out. The only draw-back is the $50/mo gym membership, but if you live nearby you can use the facility as much as you want. *Get a buddy and go see Chisolm! Pros: good trainers Cons: high monthly membership more

Effective, knowledgeable and consistent personal trainer 1/15/2008

A friend gave me my first 6 sessions as a gift and I have been a loyal client for a year now. There is no way I would put myself through the paces that Chisolm MacDonald puts me through on a regular basis. But I am extremely happy with that he does have the motivation and the drive that I sometimes lack. I have more energy and am in the best shape in 20 years. He is knowledgeable and creative in his workouts so I never get bored of the routine. Regarding the appropriate diet for weight loss and muscle gain, Chisolm is realistic and firm in his recommendations. I like the fact that occasionally Chisolm tells me about the pepperoni pizza or big burger (no fries)he has eaten. He pushes his clients but also seems to know when to pull back (not very often). As a physician, I can tell that Chisolm really knows his science and physiology well. No voodoo magic fixes here. I highly recommend this trainer. Pros: Mature, consistent and knowledgeable more

Kind and ecouraging, focuses on the whole you 1/15/2008

I needed to get back into a routine that I can make stick. Chisholm has helped me look forward to exercise and makes the workout go very quickly. He pushes me about 2-3 reps/steps further than I would push myself and that's exactly what I wanted. That said, if I feel like I need a break then he lets me take one. more

Awesome Trainer 9/20/2007

Chisholm is an excellent personal trainer. He's incredibly knowledgeable, but also very approachable. The space he works out of is also conducive to his attitude and style. It isn't superficial--it is filled with average normal people that want to get in shape. I've been seeing Chisholm for about 6 months, and I have seen such a difference in my muscle tone and confidence level in weight training. Chisholm is a great motivator; even when you think you're going to die, he gets another set out of you. I highly recommend him as a trainer. His rate is also extremely competitive. more

Great Trainer 2/2/2007

I have never been the type that would ever stick to a workout program, I would get bored very easily. I have now been with Chisholm for about 8 months. I love it! With his knowledge and experience he is able to keep a variety in our workouts. Also, I travel a lot with my job, and his flexible schedule helps to make sure I get to make up my sessions. If you are looking for a trainer, I would highly recommend Chisholm. He and his facilities are outstanding. more

Great Trainer! 1/29/2007

I live in Pearland and have been training with Chisholm for 8 months now. I could not have done it this long without him! When I think I can't go anymore, he knows that I have a little bit more in me. He is very knowledgable in everything from training to nutrition and I can ask him anything. He knows the best exercises for my trouble spots and does a great job incorporating them into all of our workouts. I would highly recommend Chisholm as he has helped make working out a new habit in my life. more

Great Trainer, Great Guy 1/14/2007

I've been training with Chisholm for well over six months and I've been very pleased with every aspect of his service. I don't think that I could have found a better trainer for what I want to accomplish. His location is very convenient and his new facility has terrific new equipment. Chisholm is very knowledgeable about nutritional issues and is always engaging me in discussions about diet and nutrition and challenging me to reach my personal goals. I also appreciate his flexibility with my very busy schedule. I recommend him without reservation! Pros: location, flexibility Cons: none really more

Great personalized program 1/9/2007

I have been training with Chisholm for a year now and he continues to keep me motivated. During each training session, Chisholm remains focused on you and always strives to help you meet your goals - even when you are not in the mood to meet them! He pushes you hard, but in the end you are always glad he did. Chisholm is friendly and easy to talk to - you can talk about your goals and slip-ups without feeling embarrassed. He is sensitive to each client's weaknesses and will work with you to focus on the areas you most want to improve. Overall, Chisholm is very professional, knowledgeable, and very reasonably priced. The new facilities are very nice and the machines are top of the line. It is very convenient if you work or live in the Galleria area. If you live further west, the commute could be a problem. I would recommend CitiFit for all, regardless of current or desired fitness level. Pros: New, clean facility with a great trainer (Chisholm) Cons: Inconvenient if you want to stay away from the Galleria area more
