Before I started training with Janelle, I was uncomfortable in my own skin. I would go to the gym, not really knowing what to do, I would just go through the motions. I got to a point where I was sick of feeling hopeless and contacted Janelle. I started with Janelle about a month ago. I was skeptical to start because I have a lot of food allergies that put a restriction on my diet. Now looking back, this was the best decision I have made when it comes to my health and my confidence. Janelle worked with me to create a meal plan and workout plan, to help me achieve my goal. I can safely say that after only a month, I am seeing amazing results and could not be happier. I am more confident and feel comfortable in my own skin. I am looking forward to seeing my continued results as I continue with her meal plan and workout plan. Janelle is always there with any answer to any question that you may have and is there to help you achieve your goal. Thank you so much Janelle, for all that you have done so far and I can’t wait to see what is still to come.

Janelle simply has a special gift. She has the incredible ability to get people to achieve their health and fitness goals that were once a mere dream. Change is scary and breaking a cycle of unhealthy eating can be difficult but Janelle has made it so easy to get it done and see nothing but positive results. Every week I saw my body changing and my clothes getting looser and looser. Her uplifting attitude and energy is nothing less than contagious and she makes you want to stay on track with your nutrition plan and workouts. Janelle’s nutrition plans are extremely easy to follow and trust me you will not be hungry on it. I thought if I wanted to lose weight, I would have to cut my calories but I was so wrong. I eat way more than I have ever eaten before (healthier foods of course) and I have been consistently losing 1-2 pounds a week for 6 months now. Something that I truly love most about Janelle is that she doesn’t take the credit for your hard earned achievements like many other trainers or nutritionists tend to do. She constantly lets you know that you are doing amazing, looking great and to keep up the good work. She has just as much heart as she does muscle. She is there for you every single step of the way. I consider myself so lucky to be apart of team G- Physique and if you are tired of trying to live a healthier lifestyle on your own and finally want to get the results that you have been wanting, Janelle is hands down the girl to go to. 6 months ago at 165 pounds, I would never have thought that today I would be standing in the mirror seeing my abs pop out at 129 pounds and 11% body fat. Thank you so much Janelle for not only changing my physique but my overall happiness.

Starting off I would like to say thank you so much for not only your support, but the encouragement and knowledge you passed on to me. I decided 6 months ago that I wanted to challenge myself and compete in the 2013 NPC Eastern Championships. I was doing this all by myself and without any real knowledge of competing let alone bodybuilding. I myself have been a trainer and worked in many gyms in the fitness industry, but as the date got closer this challenge became overwhelming. When I was five weeks out my friend told me to just call Janelle and see how she can guide me the right way. I was emotional and scared, but after our first phone call she had my spirits lifted again and from then on it was game time! Being that close to a show most trainers would not accept someone new because it’s hectic, but Janelle took me on without any questions. She has so much knowledge and passion for what she does and as someone always told me you must love what you do and she is a prime example. The day of the show was an absolute mix of emotions and I along with many others was competing for the first time. Janelle went above and beyond for her clients that day and I will say to anyone I couldn’t have done it without her. I did not place very high, but I did it. I got on that stage and gave everything I could. I’m proud to call Janelle my trainer and also my friend. I am eager and excited to keep this going and wouldn’t trust anyone else but Janelle to help with my upcoming shows.

Janelle was an outstanding coach to work with. She was always available when I needed her whether for support or a question about prep. She helped me through my 12-week prep of my first show adjusting my meal plan to work best with my body. Janelle guided me to a first place win in Novice and second place in Open, leading to a qualification for Nationals. At my show, she was extremely supportive and was back stage with me guiding me and getting me ready to step on stage. I could see her excitement in the audience from stage. I am excited to work with Janelle again for my journey to Nationals. I appreciate everything she did for me and helped me with!

My name is Denise; I am a 45 year old mother of two, Personal Trainer and Spin Instructor. After working in the industry for 6 years I decided I wanted to compete in a NPC Bodybuilding Competition. After researching coaches in my area, I found Janelle Gallo-Riegger, a trainer with a great reputation, experience, and highly recommended. My journey began 1 year ago, when Janelle first decided given my genetics and body type, the bikini division would be the best place for me to compete. Janelle developed 2 diet and strength programs for me. Phase one was for “muscle building” which I followed for approximately 20 weeks and achieved great results. The second phase was the actual “contest prep” which started about 16 weeks out from the first show date. This is where I started to lose body fat while retaining my hard earned muscle. I met with Janelle every week to practice posing for the stage. She watched my progress very closely and adjusted my diet and training depending on my personal progress. She always conducted herself in a professional manner but at the same time made the sessions fun so that I was always looking forward to them and excited to go.Janelle chose two NPC shows for me. The first show was The Long Island Bodybuilding Championships this past May 31st and the second was The NPC Garden State Championships in New Jersey one week later, on June 7th. The Long Island show was intended as a warm-up and I placed 6th out of 14 in the Open Bikini Class D. One week later I placed 1st in the Masters (35 and older) Bikini Class B division. Janelle was with me literally every step of the way. She traveled with me to New Jersey and was extremely supportive and motivating. She went above and beyond just being a coach; she was my mentor and friend. Looking back I cannot think of anyone I would have wanted besides Janelle to guide and support me through this. It was an experience of a lifetime. Janelle’s individualized program gave me the confidence and “stage readiness” that I needed. She was always available and had tons of patience. She consistently answered all of my questions in a timely manner no matter how trivial they may have seemed. I will be competing in the Masters NPC National Show July 2015 in Pittsburgh and going for my Pro-Card. I could not do it without the help and coaching of Janelle. Thank you so much Janelle. You are the best and a friend for life! Here we come Pittsburgh!!!
