Anthony Beese

I undertook a project to have singular experiences in every National Park. This required preparing to ski, paddle, backpack, bicycle, snorkel, rock-hop, glacier-hike, ride horseback, and more. Prior to each adventure, Anthony gave me new exercises designed to tune my body for the challenge facing me. His tutelage helped me to complete my project without injury and be ready for the next challenge. Thanks, Anthony!

After a hip replacement, Anthony worked with me to bring me back to 100% use of my hip. Every session I feel stronger as Anthony continues to increase my strength and endurance.

Anthony is very observant about what training is needed for my physical fitness and general health and is also very encouraging. Since working with Anthony, I have seen improvements in my strength and balance. He is a pleasure to work with and helps keep me motivated.

At my initial meeting with Anthony, he asked lots of questions about what activities I like to do and what my goals were. He tailored my routine to strengthen the muscles I would be using as well as work on balance. I was having bursitis pain in my hip as well as neck pain from kayaking. Anthony showed and explained exercises and stretches that would help the particular muscles that were causing the pain. Within the week, my hip pain had just about subsided, and my neck pain had greatly improved. We continued to work on those areas for another session. Anthony explained the reasoning behind specific stretches and strength training exercises. The pain in my hip is completely gone now, and my neck is almost back to normal.

I believe Anthony is an extremely competent trainer who takes the time to ask questions and teach his clients what they need to know to have success at working out.

His sense of humor and light-hearted approach to exercising makes training sessions very enjoyable.

Anthony brought back the excitement of being back in the gym, making my life better. To that, even my doctors comment on the results. They say to keep it up; it has definitely improved my overall health.

When I first joined the Center, I was very nervous since this was the first time I joined a gym. Luckily, I met Anthony, and I am glad I did. He has been very helpful, always makes the workouts fun, and always listens. I feel a lot stronger now, and I highly recommend him.

Anthony has been very helpful to me. I am recovering from double hip replacement surgery, and he has helped me come a long way in my recovery. He is easy to talk to and very good at the training he gives me. I would recommend him to anyone.

I’ve been working with Anthony for about 10 months now. He helped establish both short and long-term goals for me, which have significantly increased my range of motion and overall fitness while keeping the workouts fresh and fun.

When my physical therapists determined I had reached my maximum range of motion (ROM), Anthony developed custom, targeted, and dynamically evolving workout routines that have taken my ROM to levels considered “unachievable” by the therapists. I am very happy with the result so far and will continue to use his services to take my fitness to the next level.

I highly recommend Anthony as a Personal Trainer who will focus on your individual needs while motivating you to stay engaged.

I started training with Anthony to help develop core strength and balance to deal with chronic back issues. I experienced improvement after the very first session. My continued progress is a reflection of Anthony’s knowledge, skill, and personal commitment to my well-being. Thank you, Anthony!

I’ve been Personal Training at the Center for four years but have only been with Anthony for about a month. Starting out with someone new can be challenging, but we connected immediately! He is extremely personable, obviously loves what he does, and genuinely seems excited to have our sessions together. I think we have a great partnership, and that makes my workouts more effective and enjoyable. Anthony was diligent in learning about my fitness history and any physical issues I had in order to forge our plan forward. He puts thought into each session and comes up with a plan, but he is flexible and can easily switch gears if needed due to equipment availability or personal needs. As a senior client, my fitness goals are simple – to age well, avoid injury and enjoy my workouts and Anthony has a long-term plan to ensure those goals continue to be met. I feel completely comfortable in his competent hands. I look forward to coming to our sessions!

I have trained with Anthony on and off – mostly on – since I restarted with the Center after COVID. When I was assigned to Anthony, I was somewhat skeptical – I am an “old man” with several injuries (back and knees) that have since undergone surgery, and Anthony was a young trainer, apparently somewhat new to the Center. That initial reaction has been proven totally wrong.

Anthony is very personable and, as far as I can tell, very knowledgeable. It is clear he cares for his clients and completes research and classes on his own time to learn more about helping them. Anthony has dealt with my infirmities, first helping improve my fitness and then adapting his approach to accommodate my back and knee surgeries. He has willingly adapted his training to include part-time in the pool, clearly working with others to learn more about the possibilities with that approach.

I have been very impressed with Anthony. In addition to being knowledgeable in the training area, he is very personable. This has made training with Anthony interesting and fun as well as functionally successful. I look forward to training with Anthony and would be very disappointed if it ever comes to some point where that might be no longer possible.

Kudos to Anthony – please keep him challenged and continue to help his clients!!!

Anthony is helping me better my skills to improve in Wrestling, Football, and Lacrosse. Since working with him, my endurance has greatly improved. Thank you, Anthony!

I started working with Anthony to improve my strength and fitness. He focused my workouts on competing in the Senior Olympics, and I’ve set PRs with each successive competition. I enjoy his positive attitude and willingness to research different training methods. His sense of humor makes the workouts fun.

As someone who has been exercising for years, I didn’t think there was much more to learn. I quickly understood how wrong I was after just one session with Anthony. He’s helped me make progress I otherwise wouldn’t have accomplished myself, as he’s a great motivator. From form to tempo to breathing, he has given me a real education on lifting. These are insights I will be using for the rest of my life.

Anthony worked with me before my total right knee replacement. He helped to stretch and prepare for the surgery. After the surgery, he also was part of my physical therapy to get full use out of my new joint. Anthony is very caring and concerned for my health and comfort. Although the program he had me doing was sometimes challenging, I improved well. I have full use and a great range of my new knee. He still is working with me to build my core and back. Thank you, Anthony!!!

Anthony is an excellent asset to your Personal Training team at Main Line Health and Fitness. I really appreciate that he takes the time to research the orthopedic issues that pertain to my situation and then streamlines my workout not only to prevent injury but he make it FUN! As a result, I feel healthier and stronger. Anthony puts his all into his work! It’s evident that he’s passionate about helping people, and that keeps me coming back. All of the above has helped me take better care of myself so that I can help others without getting hurt.

Anthony really helped me out when I was coming off several long-term injuries and trying to get back into fitness. I was really nervous about reaggravating an injury but had the all-clear from the doctor and PT to get back to work. I just needed that extra assurance from a trainer that what I was doing was safe and correct. Anthony exceeded my expectations. He helped me safely return to a regular exercise program and eventually get back into the competitive sports I did previously. He is an attentive and knowledgeable trainer, and I have no doubt he can help other clients the way he helped me.

Anthony has helped me improve my balance, core strength, and cardio capabilities, all while losing some weight. He employs multiple methods to do so and makes it fun. He is attentive when I speak and adjusts our plan to accommodate my concerns. Anthony takes the time to explain why we are doing things and the goal to be achieved. I truly enjoy our sessions. He is professional and personable.

Anthony has been a key part of my overall health journey! He has helped me stay consistent with weekly workouts, and it’s so nice to have someone hold me accountable, and who just wants to see me healthy and happy. Finally, in my 30 years of life, I can complete a perfect squat! Anthony is a great trainer who can pivot at any point, as I deal with chronic pain that flares up periodically. He’s always ready to do a lighter workout whenever I’m not feeling the greatest instead of pushing against the pain. I’m super excited to see what we can accomplish in the next year or two.

I worked with Anthony for a year, he helped me with my goals of losing weight, building muscle, and working on balance. I moved to Alaska for work in January and Anthony’s training prepared me to get out there and enjoy all of Alaska’s natural beauty! He customized a plan to my goals, and helped me not only work to achieve them but also maintain them!
