Training Backed by Experience
I’m Cary Davis, a NASM Certified Personal Trainer and licensed Physical Therapist Assistant with a background in strength and conditioning, rehabilitation, endurance sports, and outdoor adventure.
I’ve spent years hiking, backpacking, running, swimming, and training for endurance events—and I understand that being fit in a gym doesn’t always translate to being ready for a long day on the trail or a demanding trip.
My approach combines smart strength and endurance training with a program built around you: your goals, your experience, your schedule, and where you want to go.
Testimonials
I’ve been working with Cary as my personal trainer, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the progress I’ve made. She takes the time to understand your goals and tailors workouts to fit both your fitness level and personal needs. I’ve never felt rushed or like just another client—Cary is genuinely invested in helping me get stronger and stay injury-free. Her down-to-earth approach makes working out feel fun rather than a chore. Highly recommend it if you’re looking for a trainer who cares!
I have been doing personal training with Cary for over a year now and have nothing but good things to say! She has been very helpful in enabling me to reach my goals to build up my strength and endurance. She’s also great at adapting exercises when you need to work around an existing injury so that you can still exercise without aggravating the injury. She is easy to talk to and really listens, which makes our training sessions fly by! I always look forward to our training sessions together and am thankful to have her to help me continue to reach my fitness goals.
After struggling with some injuries and a lack of progress in my fitness journey, I decided to work with Cary as my personal trainer. From the start, she was patient, encouraging, and incredibly knowledgeable. She helped me strengthen areas I didn’t even realize were weak, and with her guidance, I’m now lifting heavier and moving better than ever. It’s clear she knows what she’s doing, but her friendly, approachable personality makes it easy to stay motivated. Cary’s the one if you’re looking for a personal trainer who listens and truly helps.
Online Personal Training FAQs
How does online personal training work?
Online personal training gives you a personalized workout program based on your goals, fitness level, schedule, and available equipment. You’ll follow your workouts through an online training platform while receiving ongoing coaching, accountability, progress tracking, and adjustments to your program.
Can I work with you if I'm not training for a hike or adventure?
Absolutely. You don’t need to be training for a mountain or a big trip. I work with people who simply want to get stronger, improve their fitness, stay consistent, and have a personalized training plan without needing to meet with a trainer in person.
Can you help me train for a hiking or backpacking trip?
Yes. Your training can be designed around the specific demands of your trip, including hiking distance, elevation gain, terrain, pack weight, consecutive hiking days, and the amount of time you have to prepare.
How far in advance should I start training for a hiking trip or trek?
It depends on your current fitness level and the difficulty of your trip, but starting several months in advance gives you more time to safely build strength and endurance. Your training plan can be adjusted based on your starting point, trip date, and the demands of your adventure.
Do I need a gym for online personal training?
No. Your workouts can be designed for a gym, your home, or a combination of both. Your program is built around the equipment and training options you actually have available.
Can I train with you from anywhere?
Yes. Because coaching is online, you can train from virtually anywhere and continue your program while traveling. You can also adjust your workouts when your schedule, location, or available equipment changes.
