Jeff,

It is my understanding a potential client has requested references with respect to Fuel, it programs, and their effectiveness. I would be happy to share my experience.

I have had the opportunity to implement fitness programs with personal trainers at a variety of venues. As a 53 year old with serious chronic lower back issues, the recurrence of pain and periodic times away from my exercise program was becoming extremely frustrating. As you now, I have definitive fitness goals that require consistent and often an intense level of effort that I was simply unable to achieve because of the severe discomfort, limited mobility and incorrect exercises for my condition.

Prior to meeting and working with you and your specifically designed program at Fuel, no other “trainer” was able to keep me relatively pain free and on course. Your constant monitoring, reevaluation and understanding of how, when and where to “push” me has been instrumental in my ability to reach my goals, and more importantly, has improved the mobility and strength in my lower back resulting in a much more comfortable day to day lifestyle. Learning the “why’s” of what exercises I am performing and participating in a “living and breathing “program that is designed specifically and especially for my needs and goals has been the most important thing (from a physical perspective) that I have ever done.

I know there are other good professionals that work in the fitness industry. However, there is only one facility, and one wellness program that I would ever personally recommend to my family, friends or to anyone who asked…and that would be Fuel under the guidance of Jeff Brockes.

Best Regards,

“I have many patients and friends who work with Jeff and his team at Fuel. There is no question that their exercise program and lifestyle input has improved the health and overall well-being of every single one. Most important, they create a motivating and enjoyable atmosphere to pursue these goals.”

Jeff and I have comanaged mulitple clients/patients with great success. I am always impressed with how thoroughly he evaluates and programs each patients exercises to address their issues. He has helped me return multiple patients to their best health and given them the opportunity to enjoy their life again. Thank you Jeff for you expertise.

I am a spine and sports medicine physician in the western suburbs of St. Louis. I have had the pleasure of working with Jeff in my medical practice for several years. He and his staff have supported my patients by facilitating their rehabilitation and providing personal training services to further their fitness goals. I know that my patients will receive excellent and personalized exercise programs that will allow them to maximize their physical capacities and sports performance goals”

Jeff and his FUEL team are thorough and methodical in their approach to fitness. As an orthopedic surgeon I think its critical that the a person's prior injuries and chronic ailments be addressed with an appropriate fitness program. Jeff is extremely experienced and understands how to accommodate chronic injuries through a customized training program. Many patients find themselves uneasy about getting back into their fitness routine after a major surgery and Jeff is able to work with my patients and guides their recovery to achieve their lifestyle goals.

This is a little uncomfortable but I really want to give a major shout out to Jeff Brockes at Fuel Fitness. My whole life I never needed to worry about my weight. I was always thin and confident with my body and self. After having children my body changed drastically and for the first time in my life I needed to lose weight. I had noooo idea where to begin. I have tried every fad diet out there. They all work but they don't last. After tirelessly fluctuating I finally accepted that I needed some help so I called Jeff. He completely changed my mindset and approach to nutrition, fitness, and wellness. We did an assessment and he created a meal plan, intense fitness plan, and I set a goal for myself. I achieved my first goal - 15 pound weight loss in 6 weeks. Im already onto my next goal. This first picture was taken when I started with Jeff and the other picture was last night. Jeff helped me every step of the way. It took hard work, a lot of sacrifice (wine!!), and the implantation of new habits but has been SO worth it. What I have learned from Jeff will help me the rest of my life and I have never felt better, happier, stronger, and overall healthier! Thank you again Jeff!!
