Testimonials

Best Trainer In The Fort Smith Area!!

“I’ve been training with Tina for six months and my only regret is that I did not start earlier! I’ve known Tina for several years and she is a woman of integrity with a sincere love for God, her family and friends. She is extremely knowledgeable about the human body and how each muscle works, and is very professional. She has a passion for training each client and cares about meeting each individual need. She greets each client with a warm, friendly smile that electrifies the gym with her energetic bright heart. I actually look forward to training, have never dreaded attending a session and always feel better when I leave.
“She is by far the BEST trainer in the Fort Smith area. I am stronger, my mucles are toner, I’m more flexible, have less back pain and on a recent hiking trip through trails and crossing rocky streams, my husband commented ‘Tina has really helped you with improving your balance.’ She also creates an individual workout plan for each client to use on the days when they are not training with her. Training with Tina has been very beneficial to me in many ways. She is truly amazing. Everyone needs a ‘Tina Trainer’ in their life.”
Pam Evans, 62

BBT Is One Of The Best Decisions I’ve Ever Made!!

“BBT is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! From the minute I walk in the door, Tina’s high energy is contagious and helps carry me through our intense workouts. I look forward to this one hour a day I can spend on ME, and I enjoy every second. BBT has changed my life, given me a new best friend and improved my outlook on life in general.”
Chrissy France, 38


Tina Makes Exercising Fresh, Interesting & Fun!!

“I’ve been training with Tina close to 10 years. I’m not one who loves to exercise, but know I need it to keep healthy, and Tina has kept it fresh and interesting. I would even use the word ‘fun.’
“A few years ago I broke my arm and rehab told me this was the best range of motion I would have. Always loving a challenge, Tina set to prove them wrong and she did! I have arthritis in my hands and some days it’s difficult to hold weights, but that has never daunted Tina. My osteoporosis has not increased, which is a huge accomplishment, thanks to Tina’s work with my old bones.
“Tina has helped me keep a healthy and independent lifestyle. I can not imagine life without Tina!”
Jere Barker, 70


I Was About To Give Up. Tina Changed My Life!

“When we met, I had given up hope of achieving my fitness goals. For years I tried countless fitness programs, all producing mediocre results. She said ‘I can help you. Let’s pursue this together.’ She began with questions on my lifestyle and fitness goals, and designed a successful, goal-oriented body fitness program for ME. Each session, Tina critiqued my progress, making program adjustments where necessary. Within weeks, I noticed positive results. She pushed me to improve and encouraged me every step of the way. Five months in, I was stoked! Thanks to Tina, the body I had tried to build for years was being sculpted before my eyes. The physique I lost hope of ever having was becoming a reality.
“Feeling good about the way I look has had an immeasurable positive impact on my attitude. I have more confidence, I’m more upbeat, and I feel physically fit and mentally sharp. In the arena of body fitness and overall wellness, Tina Edwards is brilliant. She can work miracles. As a personal trainer, she is the whole package. She is intelligent, knowledgeable, experienced, intuitive, flexible, understanding, motivational, encouraging, professional, and she’s a great listener. She will push you to the next level and be your biggest fan every step of the way.
“I was about to give up. Tina changed my life. If you’re looking for a personal trainer who can help you get the results you desire, I recommend Tina Edwards with unbridled enthusiasm. She’s the best. True story!”
Don Bailey, 62

Muriel Parnell, 56


Her Enthusiasm, Energy & Gentle Spirit Worked Wonders For Me!

“I came to Tina needing a whole body strengthening program, especially for my back. I was kind of negative and low on motivation. Her enthusiasm, energy and gentle spirit worked wonders for me. I may not always want to exercise, but I always look forward to seeing Tina.”
Tedra Gwartney, 63


BBT Studio Has All The Equipment We Need!

“I signed up with Tina to improve balance and leg strength; now I am more mobile and can do more. As an added bonus, I am overall much fitter, stronger and more balanced. Tina designed a personal workout regime for me and changes the routine often enough to keep it interesting and productive. The BBT studio has all the equipment we need and I like that I get her full attention during every session.”
David Roberts, 66
