I had an unbelievable sessions with Slyvain yesterday...love the approach he took. Oh I am pumped to work at getting the results I want. The Dream body package seems like my ticket! Thanks also to Cathy who was very attentive and informative to what I needed to do and be aware of with my RMR testing. I like that Slyvain and Cathy worked to get together to learn how I responded to the cardio testing...now all I need to do is wear my best friend heart monitor and keep all the information I learned in my brain...to move forward on my quest. ;> Thanks again for being here for people like us.

I love having Jeff as my trainer, his capacity to provide fitness leadership, encouragement, and compassion is most impressive. I really enjoy collaborating with him to create a mind/body connection for myself. Posted By: Joanne D April 2010
Hello Andre – just wanted to thank you again for last Friday and the fitness test. I learned SO much, and am very grateful for the new insights – primarily it was a HUGE gift to know that I wasn’t going crazy (with endless workouts and incredibly stubborn weight loss I was beginning to think I was losing my mind!). I instituted the changes right away in my workouts since Friday – long sessions (or even two sessions with long brisk walks with the dog as well) all under my anaerobic threshold. Also made a few adjustments to my diet as you recommended. And things seem to be working (fingers crossed) – have already lost lbs since Friday, so it’s coming off really well now. I am thrilled, as you might imagine! Posted by: Mary Ann S. Anderson, February 2010
I was shocked I had become a flabby, round, middle aged women. I was advised to try training by INFOFIT. In a few short months, I went from a 160 flabby pounds to 135 of lean muscle, losing pounds of fat. Today, at age 48, I am leanest and strongest I've ever been in my life. INFOFIT deserves the credit for their effective training and rehabilitation programs. I will be happy to talk with anyone about INFOFIT's approach to total body fitness, because nothing has come close to make me feel so good, and proud, about myself.” Posted by: Vanessa Howe, February 2010
No Back Pain in Over a Year! When I first came to see Andre I had back pain and was out of shape. Every few months I kept putting my back out. I tried Physiotherapy, but received no results from their treatments. I did not want to take prescription medication for my back, so I decided INFOFIT would be what I needed to improve my health. Within 3 months I started feeling better. I lost weight, got a toned body and have no back trouble in over a year now! INFOFIT has been a very positive experience for me. I have personally recommended family members to seek training at INFOFIT. In fact, my mother-in-law, who has osteoporosis, is now as client as well. Thank you Andre! Posted by: F.J., June 2009
Thank you Cathie for your patience and kindness when testing me. I sure have some useful information that I hope will assist me on achieving a healthier and fitter body. Posted By: Marta M June 2009
Also, I would like to say as recipient of a resting metabolic test, that your certified personal trainer Cathie Glennon is one of the most talented trainers I have encountered.. As a fitness professional that has been certified for ten years, I found her attention to detail exemplary, and her manner beyond reproach. Posted by: Ryan Booth, June 2009
I'd always been a tall and lean type, one who dabbled a bit in weight training in my late teens/early thirties until a traumatic shoulder injury made training very hard to do. A sedentary lifestyle, a job where I sat for hours on end and the changes that one's body undertakes with age all chipped away at that lean form little by little. One day in 2007, after returning from a trip I was shocked to see a flabby, round, middle aged women with my face looking back at me from our vacation photos. Those pictures were a wake up call. I was advised to try out Andre Noel Potvin. My goals were to lose body fat but also to build good posture, muscle and strength. In about 14 months I went from a slouching person of 159 flabby pounds to a tall standing 146 lbs. of pretty lean muscle, losing pounds of fat while gaining pounds of solid muscle. It was hard work, but I stuck with it. Today, at age 42, I am leanest and strongest I've ever been in my life. Andre Noel Potvin deserves the credit for his effective training and rehabilitation programs, hard work and his obvious desire to see me reach whatever goals I set for myself. I felt there was more to my recovery from some of my health problems than what my doctors were foretelling. I couldn't imagine a sedentary life with little hope of regular activity, after I had recovered from physical trauma. I knew in the back of my mind that becoming more active was my only hope for a reasonably healthy future, but I didn't know where to start in that endeavor. I was stuck in lethargy limbo. Once I met Andre everything just clicked, and I decided to test his expertise. Andre views fitness as a part of total body health, and doesn't just focus on my body's component parts. Andre has been able to create and maintain a new and interesting fitness schedule for me that I doubt I would have found anywhere else. His unique combination of scientific knowledge, encouragement and motivation is far different from stories I've heard of other trainers. Most people think that a trainer is merely a disciplinarian who puts you on a "lift more or die" weight program. This is not the way Andre Noel Potvin works. Andre has become a trusted coach and advisor. He focuses on me as an individual and pays particular attention to my abilities and my physical limitations. He built my fitness program to meet my particular requirements in such a way that I have benefited far beyond my expectations. Andre's knowledge of anatomy and body mechanics have kept my body safe as well as helped my body recover some of its youthful capacity. I started feeling some effects of working with Andre within a couple of weeks. After a few months, I felt that my life was changing. After six months, I felt that I was a new person. Today, I feel much better about my body and about how well the world sees me. I can also think much more clearly now that my body is working better. Now that I've been working with Andre for over a year, I feel that I am healthier, happier and have a brighter future. I might even live forever. My doctors are still stunned at my new life. Until you read this, Andre was my little secret. I would be happy to talk with anyone about Andre's approach to total body health and fitness because nothing, and no one, has come close to making me feel this good and this proud of myself and my accomplishments."

Before I met Cathie, I had given up on personal trainers. Having severe back issues, trainers simply would not know what to do with me safely, that is until i met Cathie. She is an extremely talented, and by far the most educated trainer, I have ever worked with. Thank you Cathie, for saving my life! Posted by: Isabell K January 2010
Bonjour Andre, I am taking this opportunity to tell you how amazing all the tricks and tips you gave me for my back pain. My back feels perfectly fine now and as long as I do what you've told me to do, I know it will remain that way. You are a real pro and I thank you for all your help. I'll see you again soon hopefully, or not so hopefully :)" Posted by: Mimi | Summer 2008
Andre Potvin is my trainer and helped me with my back pain issues. He has saved my life; actually he has given me my life back, and I cannot say enough about how great he is at working with someone in pain. Thank you Andre!" Posted by: Kim O. | September 2008

Andre is one of the finest and most passionate exercise educators that I have ever seen and it is my honor and privilege to know him." Posted by:Dr. Brian Martin ND
I have known Andre Noel Potvin for the past 2 years, as a colleague, friend and mentor. Andre's ability to connect with his students and patients and his talent at teaching simple concepts, as well as more advanced topics, are both truly superior. He is a highly dedicated individual who strives for nothing less than excellence. He is the epitome of what a trainer is and should be; motivated by the passion of helping people lead health and happy lives. Posted by: Dr. Seema Kanwal, BSc, ND | Naturopathic Physician
