6- MONTH TRANSFORMATION
“After 40 years of overeating, smoking and years of inactivity I woke up one morning (with a little urging from my wife) and decided its time for a change. Seven months later I have lost 35 lbs and 13 inches off my waist. I work out 5 days a week and eat healthy foods and I feel 20 years younger.”

"My former doctor told me I had to accept the body I had at my age. "Women your age are just pear-shaped." After training and doing bootcamp twice a week, I've lost 27 pounds and feel like I'm 30 again." Ellen D.

"I was your typical yo-yo dieter. At 18, I weighed 98 pounds and battled anorexia and bulimia. By the time I was 24, my weight was 202 pounds. I began lifting weights when I was 29 and contemplated entering a bodybuilding contest, but never did it. My weight continued to bounce around and in May 2007 I decided to start training with IFBB fitness pro Summer Montabone. To say that she has changed my life is an understatement. I was able to achieve the look I had always wanted by lifting weights, cardio (step mill, stepper, & treadmill), combat fitness and boot camp classes and following the nutrition advise. I couldnʼt have done it without them. At 39 years young, I feel better about myself than I ever have and hope to be a positive role model to others." Amy P. "Three years ago, when I was in my mid-fifties, I was beginning to struggle physically in my job working with disabled preschool students. My hip hurt when I sat on the floor and I had constant pain in my back from lifting and carrying. I also was experiencing bone loss. I started weight training with Summer Montabone and the combination of stretching and strengthening has gotten me into better shape than I have been my whole life. I work without pain and I am stronger and have better posture. A couple of years ago, I asked Summer to come to one of our staff meetings to do a presentation. She taught our teachers how to stretch with bands. The presentation was well received and inspired some of our teachers to get into better shape. Summer works well with all ages; from "senior" participants to adolescents. I have experienced a wide range of ages in my training sessions with Summer and she is able to adapt her training strategies to every age and need. I am always impressed with how she juggles the different needs and goals of each person within the same session.Two of our preschool classes have participated in a fitness session at Summer's gym. The teachers were very pleased with their experience. Overall, Summer is a very conscientious and skilled trainer. She makes sure that everyone on her staff is qualified and works to her standard."

"Training sessions with Summer and my 5pm group have been
such a great thing to have in my life! I have always been heavily
involved in running and other sports, but her training has really
helped to change my body and the way I workout. The training
and the knowledge I have gained working out at Summer's
Fitness is priceless and most definitely helped me to accomplish
my goals out on the Akron RoadRunner Marathon course!" Jenny P.

"I've always been active and involved in sports. But 2 years ago,
my life changed when I started going to Bootcamp and Combat
Fitness classes at Summer's Fitness 24/7! My energy increased
and I am in better shape than I was in high school. I pack a ton
into each day a husband and daughter, a full-time job and
classes at 24/7. I am stronger, more confident and feel better
than I ever have. It's a great feeling knowing that I am working
on my cardio, strength and flexibility while improving my health.
Thank you Summer!" Michele M.
“I like kettlebells because they complement my already existing workout plan. I really enjoy the added stability they provide when I am training.” Steve K. 6-MONTH TRANSFORMATION "I used to drag through my workouts on the elliptical with no motivation, Summer's Fitness completely changed my outlook on working out. I now attend Bootcamp and Combat fitness classes 3 days a week and get fat blasting workouts while having fun! I now look forward to working out and am more fit than ever, having lost 4 pant sizes!" Jo S."Joining Summer's Fitness 24/7 has provided our family a unique benefit that we like to view as additional health insurance. We believe being fit and healthy will give us the ability to enjoy and live life to its fullest. The staff and people who come to work out are friendly and supportive. By offering many different levels of activities, Summer has created a gym environment that stands out from the rest. The 24/7 access to the gym gives us the flexibility to work out even with busy schedules." Frank, Diane and Ryan“As teachers we experience days that sometimes leave us mentally and physically exhausted. For me, by chance, I met Summer Montabone seven years ago. Through Summer and the programs she has developed, I have learned how to re-energize and take better care of my family and myself. Summer’s Fitness 24/7 offers the best opportunity for me to fit in exercise on my own time without feeling like my life’s schedule is overwhelmed.” Mary Jane D.

Weight Loss of just over 60 lbs. Since October 2002"I have been attending bootcamp for the last two years twice a week. I have lost 26 pounds and 18 inches. I feel the best I have in a long time. I never would have done it on my own. I love the fact that there are many people with different age and fitness levels in the class. I am 45 years old and my daughter who is 21 also attends. I never thought that I would be able to keep up with her . I have also made some new friends along the way while getting in shape. Everyone is so encouraging and friendly. I have more to lose but I am confident that with bootcamp and using my family gym membership, I will reach my goals." Patti M. “As the North Canton City School District's HPE department chairperson, I am responsible for organizing programs and guest speakers for my staff for professional development days each year. Several years ago, I asked Summer to speak to the K-12 staff. Her knowledge and expertise in the field of wellness, specifically in the areas of exercise, personal training, nutrition, strength training and conditioning is invaluable to any program, business or individual. Summer is a motivated, personable and caring person who is more than willing to share her talents and gifts with others. She has developed an outstanding reputation as a teacher, competitor and business owner and thrives on sharing her wealth of knowledge with others. We were all impressed with her presentation and thrilled to be able to use the content that she shared that day with our classes and athletic teams in the district. Since our first meeting, I have relied on Summer many times because I consider her an expert who is always on the cutting edge of wellness! She definitely put her stamp on our Integrated Wellness Program at the North Canton Middle School and Hoover High School.” Susie V. Integrated Wellness Program (IWP) Instructor North Canton City School District IWP Chair
“I have obstacle to overcome as I have a rare form of
Muscular Dystrophy. Debbie’s low impact workouts
and stretches helped me reach achievements in my
physical health. Debbie helped me to lose weight
and feel better about myself both physically and
mentally. She also kept in touch with me, outside
of our meetings, to keep me motivated.” John G.
"Summer's Fitness 24/7 is an excellent facility run by people who care about health and wellness. I love the 24-hour access because I can fit my workouts in around my school schedule, and the variety of services offered is amazing! I weight train with a wonderful group of women after school two days a week, and Wednesday night boot camp is an awesome whole body workout! What I love more than anything, though, are the great people at Summer's Fitness 24/7, who are dedicated to healthy living, and who are a positive support system to my fitness regiment." Stephanie I.
10th and 11th grade English Teacher, Sandy Valley HS
Mother of 3 students grades 10, 7, and 5 "I must say I was bit apprehensive about joining any exercise program. At 65 I was sure I would make a fool of myself with the 30 & 40 year olds and not be able to keep up. Debbie does such a good job of being able to adapt every exercese to our individual ability that being older with a little arthritis or someone having shoulder problems really wasnt an issue at all. Debbie adds a lot of humor to the class so we laugh and sweat at the same time making the class really enjoyable. My knees no longer hurt, my blood pressure is lower and my posture is much better and I've also lost a little weight. Thanks Deb for helping me!" Janie H. "After years of struggling with weight gain and depression, I was finally diagnosed with Celiac Disease of the small intestine. My Gastoenterologist explained to me it would take 2 years for me to see weight loss due to the severe damage to my intestine. With the help and encouragement from Summer and her staff, I have lost 21 pounds since January. In October, I met my gastroenterologist for my 1 year checkup he was amazed by my weight loss. I love working out at Summer's Fitness 24/7!" Cheryl C.
