Who is Vanessa Bogenholm?
Vanessa Bogenholm
I was the fat picked on kid who couldn't do any sports and grew up incredibly poor eating bread, potatoes, and candy. At the age of 13, I decided to change and attempted to run. My first run was 23 steps. Then I acknowledged I was the fat, loser and wanted to change and did, running my first marathon at 15.
I have been a personal trainer for over 12 years. I started in San Jose Ca with a very successful business seeing people one on one in my private personal training studio. I also did corporate work taking people on group 5ks and group exercises during conventions. I was the Varsity Tennis Coach at Homestead High in Cupertino for 4 years winning league and going to CCS with every team, boys and girls. I had a Non-profit, Exercise in the Streets where we gave running shoes and clothes to incarcerated and foster children of Santa Clara County.
In 2022 I bought an existing gym in Fort Worth Texas, to move to an area I always wanted to live and to grow my reach of helping people by having a large gym. Unfortunately the person who sold it to me lied who was also my landlord and I was forced to close.
Now I am working as a mobile personal trainer coming to people's homes and helping them get healthy through diet and exercise. I am also the Varsity Track and Field Coach at Harvest Christian Academy. I service the Fort Worth and Keller Areas. I look forward to helping you .
Senior Exercise
Working with Seniors has been one of the greatest joys of my personal training career. I have helped over 200 seniors learn how to use their bodies correctly to make everyday life more enjoyable. I have helped people get out of wheel chairs, walk again without pain, get stronger shoulders, etc so they can feel confident and live life independently.
I am also great with rehabbing from injuries or just learning how to workout for your health.
Weight Loss/Body Issues
Nothing is more personal than being uncomfortable with our weight. Everyone is different and I come up with a plan that fits your lifestyle. I will never let you feel like a failure. We all have complicated relationships with our food and bodies. Let me help you get to a healthier place with food and exercise so you feel better and see that when your body feels better, then you will also feel better mentally.
But I have never worked out before...
Everyone comes from different walks in life. I know the feeling of not knowing what to do when you just walk into a gym and feel out of place with no plan to exercise.
These are the kinds of people I love to help:
- Stay at home moms, gained weight, tired all the time
- People who have always worked desk jobs, sitting all day
- Men who have gained weight as they got older
- Kids that have always felt left out and not part of in sports
- Injured from an accident or disease, great with Knee , Back and Shoulder Issues
Anyone who wants to be healthier and not feel that day to day life is painful.
