My story
I know what it feels like to struggle with your body.
For years, I battled my weight, overeating, restrictive dieting, and an unhealthy relationship with food and exercise. I yo-yo dieted, trying one approach after another, losing weight and gaining it back.
I also spent years competing and pushing my body to perform. I trained hard, followed strict approaches to nutrition, and learned firsthand how easy it is to become disconnected from what your body actually needs. The more I restricted, the more I wanted the foods I was trying to avoid. The more I pushed, the more exhausted I became.
Underneath all of it, I didn't have peace with myself.
I realized I didn't need another diet or another punishment disguised as a workout. I needed to understand my body, my behaviors, my mindset, and the beliefs driving my choices. That changed the direction of my life.
Then I went through perimenopause and menopause myself. My body changed, and the strategies that worked before stopped working the same way. I had to learn to train, nourish, recover, and care for my body differently. Instead of fighting those changes, I learned to work with my body, and that is exactly how I coach today.
Because sustainable transformation isn't just about changing your body. It's about changing the way you see yourself, the way you care for yourself, and the way you show up for your life.
What I believe
The philosophy behind the coaching
Strength first
Muscle is the engine. Building it changes your metabolism, your bone density, and how you carry yourself, at every age.
Food you enjoy
Sustainable beats strict every time. High-protein, real meals you actually like will always outlast a diet you dread.
Hormones matter
After 35 the rules change. Training and nutrition have to work with your hormones, not ignore them.
The whole you
Sleep, stress, and your nervous system move the needle as much as any workout. We coach all of it.
How we work together
No cookie-cutter plans. Just what works for your body.
Generic advice stopped working a long time ago. Your body is unique, your hormones are shifting, and your schedule is real. So every plan I build starts from where you actually are.
- Custom strength and metabolic training that fits your level
- High-protein nutrition that balances hormones and fuels fat loss
- Hormone-smart habits for sleep, stress, and recovery
- Weekly accountability so you never wonder what to do next

In their words
What my clients say
She has transformed my body and my attitude about healthy living
I was delighted when asked to write a review for Patty Wilson. Having trained with Patty for 8 years, she has transformed my body and my attitude about healthy living. She easily adapts each workout to my improving capabilities and my daily needs. Patty is creative and chooses exercises and intensity to move me quickly from “rather not” to “let’s do it”. Most important, she is genuinely interested in my progress and it is obvious that she feels just as much satisfaction in my accomplishments as do I. Patty instills confidence and encouragement to make me want to work further and apply myself more diligently. Thank you!
The most talented coach I have had the pleasure of training under
Patty has been an inspiration to me over the last 5 years. I have used multiple coaches over the last 10 years and she by far is the most well versed in training techniques, muscle development and diet. She makes every session both fun and challenging at the same time! Patty is by far the most talented coach I have had the pleasure of training under.
Patty is the best at helping to achieve personal fitness goals
Patty has been my personal coach for years. She took me from a lean runner to the strongest and fittest shape of my life with PR’s in just about every race. She is motivating, energizing and upbeat but relentless when it comes to keeping her clients accountable. She is exactly what you need to achieve personal goals.

Patty is an incredible coach and motivator. She helps you establish your goals, and provides the tool to reach them. She is the best in the business!
Best person Best coach Ever!
Patty is just awesome! She helped me get back in shape for my wedding and kept me motivated. She is such a supportive coach and person. She is always providing goals as well as positive encouragement to meet them. I can’t thank her enough.
I saw results within ONE week
Patty worked with me on my nutrition during a couple of shows I competed in. When I first came to her, I had no idea on what I needed to be eating to prepare for a competition. I saw results within ONE week of being on the meal plans that Patty created for me. She is extremely knowledgeable about nutrition and how to manipulate your look with the foods you consume. Patty was a joy to work with and helped keep me motivated to stay on track with my nutrition. I highly recommend her to anyone ready to make a change, no matter if you are competing or just wanting to achieve your personal goals.
Helped me achieve my goal of doing my first 10K race at age 57
I began working with Patty in March 2024, while I was undergoing cancer treatment. Prior to my diagnosis, I was an avid tennis player and was frustrated with the loss of strength I had in my wrists, knees, ankles, and the loss of muscle I experienced due to my treatment. Patty not only tailored my workouts to regain my strength, we discussed my diet and supplements to help ease my inflammation and discomfort. Now, I am on the other side of cancer and continue to work with Patty, who has helped me achieve my goal of doing my first 10K race at age 57 and play USTA level tennis tournaments monthly. Patty’s knowledge about nutritional health, physical strength and movement, mixed with her expertise on women’s health, has guided me to live my best life!
If you’re on the fence, jump!
When we started working out together I was struggling with energy levels and coming to terms with weight gain brought on by life changes. I didn’t have the energy to “lift heavy,” and so your program, based on where my body was at physically, mentally and energetically, is what made the difference. I looked forward to working out with you because it was designed for ME. … Calisthenics and light weights done with the right moves and consistency toned my body and sculpted my arms. If you’re on the fence, jump! Jump right off and into working out with Patty! She cares. She knows the body and how it works, and she cares about your physical, emotional and nutritional health too. You have a gift, Patty, for helping women (and men) find their best path forward for gaining health and strength and confidence. Thank you.
She has challenged me and made getting more fit fun!
I highly recommend Patty Wilson as an excellent fitness trainer and advisor. She listens to her client’s needs and customizes a fitness strategy to create a successful outcome. She is empathetic and excited for every milestone her clients achieve. I enjoy working with her. She has challenged me and made getting more fit fun!
Patty Wilson is nothing but top-notch
Patty Wilson is nothing but top-notch. From her personal training to her exercise and meal plans she is above the rest. I met Patty through a mutual friend and she was kind enough to send me her fabulous three day reset to try, and boy was that a treat. … If you want a one-stop shop in fitness and health, Patty Wilson is who you need to work with. I’m so very blessed and so grateful to Patty. Stay fabulous!
I am a much better me!
Patty is amazing to work with. She is great at helping me be consistent, working on building strength, improved balance and helping with nutrition. She is kind, listens to your needs and works really hard to help you become your best self. Because of my training I have more energy, sleep better, and feel the best I have been in years. I am a much better me!
Great start and perfect outcome
I was struggling with working out, but Patty is more than a trainer. You almost forget that you are working out. She gives you a session beyond your expectation. I have more energy and also lost weight faster than ever. Start working out with Patty and experience the session you will want to continue forever.
She is tough but not mean
I have worked out with Patty for several years. Her expertise and genuine care are just a sampling of what you will get from training with her. Her meal plans are fabulous (as are her protein donuts). She is tough but not mean. She truly wants me (and whoever she trains) to be the best I can be!
I feel stronger, healthier, and happier than ever!
Patty has helped me overcome some major imbalance issues and I feel stronger, healthier, and happier than ever! I am finally able to train again like I used to! I highly recommend Patty for not only her functional training, but also for her stellar nutrition plans and overall knowledge of health and fitness in general!
She helped me get past the hardest part: showing up
I was looking for a trainer that had a private studio and an intimate environment. When I first found out about Patty, she had the ideal environment. She takes such care curating an experience individually tailored to each person. She helped me get past the hardest part, which of course is “showing up”! Anyone would be lucky to be cared for from an overall perspective by Patty.
The best personal trainer I ever had
Patty is the best personal trainer I ever had. Very creative and passionate about what she’s doing. She also helps with diet and nutrition. Highly recommended!
