World-Class Personal Training

Amy is the real deal…

Qualified, knowledgeable, hard-working, enthusiastic, funny, motivating. Her workouts are for people who ‘seriously’ want to challenge themselves.

And Amy ‘walks the walk’…

She does every rep in all three of her daily training sessions, and is still able to shout out instructions, encouragement and rep counts. It is amazing how great of shape she is in.

Amy’s experience and passion for fitness

[They] really show in her meticulously-detailed workout regiments that take into account all the variables and levels of her trainees.

Rope TrainingNo two workouts are the same and she has all the latest fitness equipment.  [It is] always a challenging, fun, total workout.

But, the best part about Amy is that she really cares. She encourages – no, demands – constant contact with each of her trainees to see how they are progressing and constantly offers individual advice and encouragement.

For me, she has taught me that there is more to fitness than packing on muscle and doing some cardio. Kettlebell Lunges

I’m now a ‘total-body conditioning’ convert with a heart rate monitor, working on my range of motion, flexibility and core strength.

Fat-loss, strength and muscle tone all fall into line after that I’m learning.

I’ve known Amy since the sixth grade and she has not changed a bit. [She is] still passionate, funny, [and] hard-working. The only difference now is that she is a world-class trainer – and I’m not in the least-bit surprised.

Improved Balance & Core Strength

I am only in my second Group Training Program. I was hesitant signing up because apart from having done the Saturday AVC Elite Training trekking and running classes, and trekking on my own, I did very little exercise.

Fitness Feast GroupEveryone in the Training Program is very supportive and ensures that I do the exercise correctly when we work in teams. Although I cannot keep up with the members who have been with the program for several years, either I follow along at my own pace, Coach gives me a modified version, or I [can] always revert to plank.

Due to muscle soreness after each class (I was surprised at how my quads ached since they should be in good condition from my trekking/running), I know that I am getting proper training and that it is essential for me to continue.

Weighted Ball SquatsMy sense of balance is a off, but I am already seeing some progress as many of the exercises are tailored to improve balance. Finally, the two times that I came to the class with AFIB issues, i.e., irregular/high heart rate, my heart rate reverted to normal/low before the class ended. Not bad for 67!

I want to start by saying what a huge inspiration Amy has been in my life.

I met Amy when I was 18 year old and just getting in to fitness. Now, almost 13 years later I am still learning new things from this woman!

KickboxingI have done many different aspects of Amy’s training and have been extremely challenged with all of it. I have always been very impressed with Amy’s ability to scale her group training sessions for the different fitness levels. TRX Push Up

Whether you are a beginner or have an advanced fitness level you are guaranteed to get a GREAT workout.

I have enjoyed every second of the past 13 years of training with Amy and there will be plenty more to come!!!!

I am so glad I am back with my coach, Amy, at AVC Elite Training. I started in the beginning of the summer and can see the difference in how I look and feel the benefits of the program.

Decline Push UpsYes, this is a work-out but WOW is it worth the effort!

The Latest Fitness Techniques Live Here

I am an “older” woman with a partial kneecap, scoliosis, a bad attitude, and sciatica!

TRX WorkoutAll that said, I truly believe I’m in the best shape I’ve ever been, even when I was younger!  Of course, I attribute it all to the years (20+) of training with Amy.

When Amy first started training, exercises were simple, yet effective. As the years went by, Amy has always updated her method of training, which has become much more challenging and intricate.

Today, Amy’s AVC Elite Training IS “elite,” following the latest techniques in the fitness world!

My muscles have NEVER been more confused (which is a good thing) or worked as hard as they are today!  I feel great!

Even though we’re in a group setting, Amy knows each of us, individually, and accommodates each of our “issues.”  She makes sure we’re very aware of how important our hydration is and that nutrition plays a big part in reaching our goals.

A heart rate monitor is a necessary part of our equipment, which allows Amy to “read” our bodies, making sure we are working out safely, yet effectively.

Plank on Medicine BallI’ve loved each and every “Amy workout;” the latest being the best and most effective for ME. There is NO ONE I trust more with my training than Amy Van Cleve!  I probably will be working out with Amy when I’m 80 years old…and I’m sure the workouts will be even more challenging!
