Lori Anderson

Personal Trainer Overview

I have been a certified personal trainer in OC for 10 years. I also have my degree in Hoistic nutrition. I do not believe exercise alone makes one "fit"; I believe a combination of exercise, diet, mental strengthening and emotional well being are all needed to be truly "fit". I will focus on all 4 aspects of fitness, rather than just the physical.

Training Philosophy

Being fit in body, cannot exist without being fit in mind!

Bio

Lori has been involved in some form of fitness most of her life. As a child she enjoyed karate, soccer and dance. As a native to Orange County, she enjoys anything that allows her to get outside and take advantage of the beauty her hometown has to offer; that could be riding her bike on the beach, hiking, kayaking or a number of other activities. Lori started out in the medical field and witnessed firsthand the ill health brought on by the standard American diet and lack of exercise. It was then she decided to redirect her career and take a “preventative” approach to health. Lori became a certified personal trainer in 2001 and has been happily changing lives ever since. She trains clients throughout Orange County; at gyms, parks and in her client’s homes. She also has her degree in Holistic Nutrition, is a LA Nutrition Examiner and published author for Livestrong. Lori is very passionate about teaching people (especially children) the importance of proper nutrition. One of Lori's aspirations is to help change school cafeteria standards. Because of proper diet and exercise, Lori feels more comfortable in her body now than she did in her youth! She is also a firm believer that it takes more than exercise to be “fit”. Lori has learned through her own life that the essence of a happy and healthy lifestyle is not only rooted in physical fitness, but diet and mental strengthening as well!! Currently, Lori is working on a Hypnotherapy certification with an emphasis on weight loss.
