WHAT CLIENTS SAY

supermodel and designer 

"I've been working with Moni for years. She is sweet, smart, and has a smile that reaches my inner core."

Cheryl Tiegs 

Monica Nelson is an angel. When we are working out and I think I have no more to give, she just sends her good energy my way and I get the job done. She is sweet, smart, and has a smile that reaches my inner core. Her goodness and strength get me through many tough, grueling workouts. I also enjoy all her recipes and nutrition guidance.

Yes, It Really Works

The whole process has been incredibly empowering, and although she is one of the kindest people I've ever met, she held me accountable to my goals (which I love). She possesses the ability to hold both strength and grace for her clients.

"I noticed big changes in my fitness, my strength, my nutrition goals and results. As a metabolic health focused physician, it is such a wonderful thing to get to work with someone whom you respect so much, and for me, that is Monica!"

Casey Means, MD

I have been training with Monica Nelson for nearly three years, and I feel fitter, stronger, and am more energetic. Her energy is so delightful that you almost forget how hard she’s working you! She's so knowledgeable, aware of using the correct form, so you get the results you want. I cannot recommend Monica highly enough, she is a treasure.

"I am leaner than I have been in years. Monica is the most upbeat, passionate, encouraging trainer imaginable."

Mia Sara

I love looking and feeling fit, but I don’t love working out. Fortunately, I have fitness and nutrition guru (and I don’t say that lightly) Monica Nelson to train me. Monica whips me into shape in record time and somehow makes it all fun. Who would have thought that someone who looks like an angel could give such a killer workout?

Working with Monica has been an amazing experience. For over a decade, she has been able to persuade me to keep up my weekly workouts. Each visit is interesting and engaging and her encouragement is never ending.

"During every session, she listens to my concerns and adapts each training to be exactly what I need. She helps me to strengthen my core and build my muscle tone."

Howard Lee

retiree, california

I can’t possibly recommend Monica enough as a trainer and nutritionist. As someone who has struggled with a variety of injuries, Monica has assisted me in finding ways to move my body without further injuring myself and recovering, and she really listens to what I need.

"By far one of the most patient, kind, and thoughtful people I’ve ever met, those strengths translate into her work as a trainer and nutritionist, building customized virtual workouts and nutrition plans that fit me perfectly."

Katie Aronson

student, WASHINGTON D.C.

"Monica's extensive knowledge of exercise physiology, nutrition and various strength building programs is truly impressive. I must admit she is a great personal trainer/coach who is undoubtedly saving my life.”

Bob Pattishal

Vice President TASC, Inc

"I entertain a lot and it’s important to me to serve healthy food that tastes good while easy to put together. Moni's recipes never disappoint! She is my go to for all things nutrition and easy, healthy recipes."

Victoria U.

"With Monica's nutrition coaching I have learned how to fuel my body properly and have been amazed with the changes in my muscle definition. Her knowledge and expertise is unparalleled! She will change your life!"

Johanna Budler

bride-to-be, co

I have been working out online remotely once a week with Monica for 4 months. At 75, although active, I hoped for better balance and an increase in muscle strength. However, I have been amazed at my increase in energy and stamina, as well as strength and balance.

"If you want to feel miraculously better in a few months with reasonable effort, I highly recommend bringing Monica into your life."

Sally Nicholson

textile artist and fashion designer

Monica is a pro when it comes to pre and post natal movement. In addition to many training techniques, she also masters a large number of exercises into the training sessions. Add to this her vast knowledge in nutrition and diet which is a big bonus.

"I had the pleasure of working out with Monica during my pregnancy since my second trimester until the birth of my baby. This has helped me tremendously during childbirth and in getting back in shape in no time after delivery."

Hiba

mom of 2, kuwait

"Monica provided a custom meal plan to satisfy my carb cravings, yet nourish my body with truly nutritious food! Monica’s philosophy is to enjoy the good things in life without depriving oneself. Monica has CHANGED my life."

Tamaryn R.

"Monica is so motivating because she knows her stuff, first of all, but also because she is incredibly kind, loving, and encouraging with kids. She is a tremendous resource to healthy living as well. I HIGHLY recommend Monica!"

Carol Reil

"One of the best decisions I have made for both my mental and physical health has been meeting with Monica for Nutrition Coaching. I am so thankful for the support she provided as what she taught will last me a lifetime. Thank you!"

Alex Reis

high school studenT

"Monica helped me to not only love the way my body looks, but to love the way it feels! My friends can't believe what I achieve with her short workouts. I enjoy that the sessions are all online too which is so helpful to stay consistent."

Amelia Casparian

"Monica didn’t just get me in shape, it was how she got in shape that was so impressive. Monica Nelson is enthusiastic, honest, pragmatic, humble, happy, responsible and real. I train with Monica because she makes my life better."

Dr. Mick Gallinson

psychologist, california

"Moni is the BEST!! I have quite a few limitations which makes preparing a well-rounded workout challenging, but Moni is so knowledgable and creative. Every workout is different and so thoughtful and specific to my needs."

Heidi Preston

mom of 3, utah

We both have been working with Monica for many years and have definitely increased our strength. She has taught us the importance of strength training and how it can very successfully be done is just 30 mins.

"We hadn’t done traditional working out before. Monica makes our sessions fun while being carefully programmed to be gentle on the body yet very effective. We are stronger in our 80's, thanks to Monica."

Neil & Ginny

"Monica is an amazing nutritionist! Being a pescatarian, I reached out so she could make me a customized plan and to help me clear out all the confusing and contradictory information out there. Now I get enough protein and love smoothies, thank you Monica!"

Lexie Aronson

student

"I heard about Monica and Moni’s Meals at the gym and she’s totally lived up to the hype! Being a relatively new mom, it’s important to me to have healthy kid-friendly "recipes" (that are EASY to make)- and Monica has them in spades."

Stacey Wynne Stewart

bend, oregon

"I have been with Monica for over a year and I definitely feel stronger and more toned. She is so positive, cheerful, and encouraging – and our workout only takes about thirty minutes. What can I say? Monica is absolutely the best!"

Mitra Akhavan

mom of 2

"Monica taught me things about diet and exercise that have changed my life. If you are serious about changing for the better, Monica will help you every step. She is so accommodating with the variety of her tough, but doable workouts and very helpful nutrition." 

Ciera Korb

RN Nurse, Los Angeles

"Stronger, Fitter, Faster – those are the results I have had working with Monica Nelson for the last two years. Monica knows the body and tailors my workouts to maximize the high level of physical and mental challenges I need. She is the best!”

Zaida Hackett

Secretary, CA

"I have been working out with Monica for years and it is all done VIRTUALLY. At the gym, I saw zero results and I didn’t know a thing about weight training. Monica has taught me the importance of strength training, metabolism and it is changing my body, inside and out!"

Erica Guimaraes

executive assistant editor

"I have made a lifestyle change and it is all because of her guidance with our 30 min. virtual workouts. I have muscle definition for the first time in my life. I trust her to push me beyond where I think I can go, but doing it safely. Monica is so knowledgeable and motivating."

Stefanie Klein

los angeles, california

"I have been working out with Monica for years… I went from a couch potato to a hot tomato!! Monica is a fitness miracle! She has passion, knowledge, and persistence. Since working with Monica my body has changed in ways I never thought possible."

Pamela Wick

Writer, hollywood

"With Monica, I just kept getting stronger, the pounds melted away, and I felt strong and healthy. Three months later, I weighed 10 pounds less and felt completely fabulous in my wedding dress. I am a huge believer and wouldn’t want to train with anyone else."
