I’m Mike Gerber and I’ve been a gym rat for the past 30 years. When the restaurant I had managed closed in 2005, I decided to turn my past time into my livelihood. I got my personal training certification through ACE and have since taken several workshop classes focusing on special needs clients. I am also trained and certified in SilverSneakers and spin instruction. I am currently studying to take the NSCA certification exam, as well as taking classes to become trained in Schiatsu massage; a non-invasive, accu-pressure massage mode. I specialize in exercise for chronic disabilities, including osteoporosis, knee and hip replacements, lower back problems, shoulder conditions, diabetes, obesity, auto-immune diseases, cardio rehab, neuromuscular disease and stroke. I have also taken special classes geared toward core training for hard abs, balance, and exercise for older people. I love being a part of this great club and the team that keeps it going.

Hey, my name is Linda Silveri. I have been training people and teaching group fitness classes for 25+ years. I took a small hiatus from The North Club for a few years to work in the restaurant business. I have been back at it for some time now and it is so good to be back at The North Club. I love the club so much and would not want to be anywhere else!

Fifteen years ago, I realized my passion for bodybuilding and powerlifting. This passion, coupled with a deep understanding of sports injuries, led me to pursue and achieve certification as a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) following my collegiate baseball career.

Drawing upon extensive experience and knowledge, I have committed myself to helping others make themselves better through personal training, offering tailored guidance and support on an individual basis. In addition to coaching, I have actively participated in powerlifting competitions over the past year and have gained critical programming experience in the past three years. I am well versed in both conjugate and linear periodization methods and can tailor training programs to fit individual needs, whether you are a novice or an experienced exerciser.

Whether you are at the outset of your fitness journey or seeking to enhance your current programs, I am here to facilitate your progress. Contact me at alex.struble@yahoo.com to set up your first training session and get one step closer to your goals!
