Carol Michaels Fitness

I am a breast cancer survivor and Carol has been my personal trainer for a few years. Carol has been instrumental in helping me regain the strength and flexibility in my arm after breast surgery, lymph node removal, and radiation. Since, I have always been an avid tennis player, I was concerned that breast surgery would greatly affect my abilities to return to the tennis court. With Carol’s help, I was able to return to play within months after surgery. I feel healthy and energized.
I thank Carol for her encouragement and guidance. Her approach to fitness and health is exceptionally professional. Additionally, Carol is sincere, inspirational, and extremely caring.

Carol brings her endless energy and creativity to each fitness class. She customizes classes to individual's personal needs. Her classes are fun, and she gets people moving! Try one of her classes--you won't be sorry!

I have attended Carol's group fitness classes for several years and have been training with her one-on-one for almost a year. Of the many group training classes and personal trainers I've had (at top gyms in New York City), Carol is above and beyond my favorite. She personalizes her routines to the individual needs and goals of her clients, and she provides invaluable nutritional and fitness advice based on her extensive study of the latest and most reliable research in the field. Since I've been working with Carol, my overall health, fitness level and sense of well-being has greatly improved. Best of all, her routines (both in class and in personal training sessions) are always fun and varied. Exercise with Carol is not a chore; it's something I look forward to every week.

I enjoy and have already benefitted from Carol's fitness classes. My stamina and my ability to move without pain and stiffness has also improved. Carol is extremely knowledgeable about how exercise benefits the body and in particular, how consistent and proper exercise can contribute to a sense of well-being. She has a good understanding of osteoporosis, for example, and how exercise can work to mitigate its effects. Above all, she manages to make her classes fun so people want to stay with the program!
While I am not a cancer survivor, I know folks who have gained similar results from
"Exercises for Cancer Survivors."

I am a one yr. Breast Cancer survivor. Twice a week I attend Pilates and Strength Building Classes instructed by Carol Michaels. From the moment Carol breezed through the doors of the Mind/Body Spirit Sanctuary at Morristown Medical Center, I knew I was in good hands. Carol is a warm and caring person, completely knowledgeable of the body's bones and musculature, and how surgery affect them. she is also aware of the effects of radiation, chemotherapy, and tumor-inhibiting drugs on the body. I receive an excellent workout without aggravating my spine or osteoporosis. Carol is able to instruct a class of women with various cancer diagnoses and stages of recovery while individualizing the exercises for the maximum benefit for each client. Carol has introduced me to exercises using floor mats, balls, stretch bands, light weights, and pilates versa tubes that also allow me to practice the exercises and stretches at home. Contact Carol and benefit from her expertise.
