"What sets Rachel Cosgrove apart from other trainers is her ability to combine her expertise with incredible motivational techniques that inspire her clients to achieve their fitness goals. Rachel not only understands the science of getting in shape, but is able to breakdown psychological barriers that limit so many from reaching their full potential."


Valerie Waters, Celebrity Trainer

"Ladies, listen to Rachel Cosgrove's advice. She's not only an accomplished athlete herself. She's also a reknowed trainer. And her advice has helped thousands of women get into the best shape of their lives. It's a simple formula really. Do what Rachel says. And watch as the results follow."

"Rachel Cosgrove is one of my top sources for fitness advice. She is, without a doubt, the best in the world at helping women lose fat and get in the best shape of their lives. In fact, there's no one in the fitness industry I trust more."

"I have had the pleasure of knowing Rachel Cosgrove both as a friend and a colleague for many years now. Most people who know me know that I #1 don't give too many testimonials and #2 rarely call someone the 'real deal'. Rachel Cosgrove is the real deal, period. As a conditioning coach training people to meet their fitness goals, as an athlete competing in powerlifting and triathlons, to being one of the most well-respected professionals in this industry who constantly provides continuing education for others in this field, Rachel is pretty much the total package. In an industry dominated by males and more testosterone than one would like, Rachel stands out as a female who will hold her own with any of us in this field."

"Rachel Cosgrove is a writer who "walks the walk". An athlete, a writer and a business owner, Rachel knows what it takes for women to be successful. I can guarantee you'll enjoy Rachel's book."

"I completed the 16 weeks and my body is so different. I am smaller, (and not just a smaller version of my old self!). I can't get over the reactions I get when people say, "Boy, you must run a lot or do a lot of cardio", its truly amazing that I don't, I lift "heavy", AND look better than ever. I love the fact that my arc trainer collects clothes in my basement & my stairs are getting the action :) Thank you so much for writing a book that actually works!"

"When it comes to getting real results for real women, I trust Rachel Cosgrove. She is hands down one of the best female trainers in the country, and I wouldn't want anyone else as our fitness columnist at Women's Health. She understands that women today want to look great, but have less time and motivation than ever. Her approach is realistic and motivating, and her book is filled with the all the tools to positively push women to results they never thought possible. If you want to change your body (and your life!) for good, read this book."
