Work History

Personal Training

Andi Lima In-home Personal Training
Tampa, FL

As a homemaker and mother of two boys, I have maintained a regular client base for almost 20 years. I've worked with individuals one-on-one or in small groups, providing specialized in-home/studio personal training. My main focus was to develop goals and design cardiovascular and strength training programs to suit each individual's needs, whether it was for weight loss, increasing cardiovascular fitness, building lean muscle tissue, rehabilitation, or for those just wanting to live a healthier lifestyle. I have worked with individuals of all ages including adults, athletes, obese men and women, individuals with illnesses or disabilities, and the youth. I have counseled my clients on the importance of healthy living through proper nutrition and exercise.
