It has been quite a privilege working with Designed Training over the past several years. The trainers and facility are top notch and by far the best in Glastonbury. This is a trusting, compassionate and supportive health facility, that truly has your best interests in mind. They stay true to their mission, which is to assist others in reaching higher levels in health, fitness and wellness. I have been in practice almost 30 years in town and trust them deeply. I refer my patients there, without hesitation and will continue to do so! Thank you Designed Training. Yours in health,Dr. Patrick DeFrancesco More...

I have been going to Designed training 2x week for personal training for a few months now. I was rehabbing a reoccurring injury and needed to find knowledgeable trainers that would keep me safe but also move me forward in my fitness goals. To say that I made the right choice at DT is an understatement for sure! Both Kristin and Patrick are amazing and push me beyond what I would do myself in the gym but also choose movements to strengthen those areas on my body that were weak and contributed to my injury in the first place. I also have taken cycling and barre classes there and gotten massages from Melissa who is AMAZING!! This facility really has so much to offer and feels like going to the spa. It is the best part of my week hands down! More...

This is one of my favorite Barre studios! The new location is spacious and decorated with a minimalist approach. Very clean and inviting. I can park right outside the facility in a parking lot, which isn't the case at all Barre studios. One wouldn't think of this as a perk, but I personally get tired of searching for parking spaces at other studios. I usually attend Kristin or Zoe's classes. Their extensive personal and professional backgrounds in dance and fitness is comes through in class. I know I will always be challenged and get a great workout here! More...

The Designed Training facility and equipment are clean, bright, and up to date. The personal training is truly tailored to your needs and goals. The Barre classes are challenging and body transforming- I wish I could go more often! The staff, trainers, and teachers are knowledgable, personable, upbeat, and never pressure you to perform beyond your limits -yet encourage you to rise to the next level. I highly recommend this studio. More...

I have been taking barre classes at Designed Training since May 2015 and I love each class and each instructor. They each bring their own flare to their barre class and challenge me in different ways. Barre is easier on joints, which is exactly what I was looking for in an exercise routine. I have been able to strengthen my weak hip and core muscles, which had actually caused a knee injury when I was a runner. I feel better than ever! More...

Such a great environment to work in! The energy in not only the studio but among the staff makes it easy to have fun while working up a sweat! Loved the barre and mimosas event, who doesn't love treating yourself to a mimosa after a good workout?! I totally recommend it and can't wait to go back!!! More...

I came to Designed Training about a year ago with one goal in mind, to get faster. A goal that may seem simple, however at the level of competition I was at the improvements I was seeing were few and far between. I knew that the best way to see the improvements I needed was to gain muscle without gaining too much weight. Even if I was able to gain just the right amount of muscle and weight, the muscle I gained had to be the right muscles conducive to running. When I told this information to my now trainer Brian Harries to my astonishment he knew exactly where to start. Almost a year and a half later he still never ceases to amaze me with his knowledge and expertise in the field of training. What amazed me even more is the results I saw from the training. He was able to accomplish the task I gave to him on the first day I stepped in to the gym. I am now stronger than I've ever been while only gaining a very minimal amount of weight in the process. On top of everything I am finally running at the level I was hoping to get to at the start of my training. The process, although tough, was made much easier because of the top class facilities at Designed Training as well as the amiability of Brian and the other trainers. I hope other people can share in the same success I have had by working with a personal trainer at this gym. Whether you're an elite athlete trying to the slight improvements you need, an average person just trying to get in better shape, or someone who needs to live a healthier lifestyle I highly recommend Designed Training. Nothing would make me happier than knowing I helped create another success story by recommending the gym to someone else. More...

I work with Brian Harris, he is an amazing trainer. Since I started about 2 months ago I am down 29lbs and still going. I feel amazing and couldn't have done it alone, Brian is always there when I need him. The facility is top of the line and spotless. I highly recommend this facility and staff, you will not be let down! More...

Finally found a gym and a trainer I love. Moving from Wilton, CT to Andover it took me 5 months to find Designed Training. I trained with an excellent trainer in Wilton for 5 years and knew I would be hard pressed to replace him. I tried all the gyms and trainers in the Glastonbury area, they were dirty, the people were more concerned with you signing contracts and the trainers were not qualified. I am paired up with Kelly at Designed Training and she knows her "stuff". She is a great trainer and knows and understands what I want. If you are looking for a great gym and a knowledgeable staff then Designed Training is for you!!! They work with you, listen to you, and put you at a good pace to bring you to where you want to be.

One of the best decisions I've made was choosing Designed Training. When I moved to Connecticut last year, I decided to stop neglecting my health and get back in the gym. I carefully selected Designed Training because of its trainers, great equipment and most importantly, very few distractions. I am paired up with Patrick who is not only an outstanding trainer, but an incredible person. He quickly put me through my paces to determine where I was (it wasn't good) and we immediately got to work. He started by retraining me on proper technique and form, which has mitigated injury and maximizes each workout. He's constantly evolving the workouts which keeps it exciting and challenges me. I haven't felt this good in a long time. Unlike many in his profession, it's not just a job for Patrick, it's his passion. He loves his job and genuinely cares about his clients, their health and goals...and it shows. Kelly has also trained me a few times, when I had to change my schedule, and she is incredible. Both her and Patrick will push as far as you think you can go, then elevate you to the next level. Prepare to sweat. I've only had the chance to watch Brian train his clients, but I'm very impressed and would enjoy training with him. All the trainers at Designed Training are very polite, professional and extremely friendly. When I train there's rarely more than one other person being trained at the same time, so there's is no waiting for equipment. The equipment is new and diverse. It and the entire facility are very clean and kept after very well. Give credit to Jess, who runs a seamless operation and is a driven businesswoman who takes care of her clients quickly so they can focus on what's most important...their training. I couldn't be happier with my decision in choosing Designed Training. More...

I have had a few chances to enjoy designed training! Almost a year ago, I signed up for for a class package. I was very nervous due to the fact I've never had a personal/ small class experience before, and the individual who helped me register made me feel very inexperienced and out of my element. . I believe his name was DJ. I took about two classes but due to an injury I sustained I had to stop attending. Fast forward to to this summer, I still had classes in my remaining balance. Jessica, the gym manager was very accommodating and made me feel it was nothing but okay to come back! I also met the newer trainers, and Patrick who is one of them, made me feel very excited about working out again. I may have had one negative experience but it is my understanding that they have completely revamped their classes, staff and have a lot of exciting things happening! I would recommend designed to anyone looking for a more personal workout experience. More...

I have been working out with DJ at Designed Training for 6 months now, and have realized tremendous results. Not only am I down in weight and body fat percentage, but I am also stronger than I have ever been. The experience has been transformative; I have learned healthier nutritional habits and improved exercise fundamentals, as my training sessions have taught me new exercises and emphasized proper form and execution. My once weak shoulder (that I was anticipating having surgery on when I started with Designed Training) is now fully recovered thanks to the series of highly effective stabilization exercises executed at the beginning of my workouts. Being an avid cyclist, I had some concerns about weight training on a regular basis for fear of increasing my body weight and deteriorating my performance on the bike. To the contrary, my sessions at Designed Training helped me increase my power output and endurance during the off-season. My power-to-weight ratio, an important measure of a cyclist’s performance, has increased almost 15% over the past 6 months. While I still have progress to make in achieving my overall fitness goals, I am confident that I will accomplish them with the expert guidance support that I receive at Designed Training. More...
