What Clients Say About Lori Cable Fitness and Wellness
Choosing a personal trainer or yoga instructor is a personal decision. These reviews are from adults who have worked with Lori Cable and wanted to share their experience.
As the founding director of a 30 year old transformational movement practice called Let Your Yoga Dance LLC, and 35 year faculty and teacher trainer at the biggest holistic health and yoga center in the USA (Kripalu Center), I can say with absolute certainty that Lori Cable is phenomenal. I always hated gyms. I always hated workouts. A few years ago, I happened to look into a full length mirror. To my horror, my body was definitely sagging in all the wrong places. Even though I teach dance and yoga, it was clear I was avoiding body parts needing the most help. In despair, I contacted Lori. We have been zooming twice a week ever since. She has taught me that working out is fun. Lori has shown me how necessary it is to work out. My once flabby triceps and biceps are getting really ripped! I feel so much better. Lori is a pro; she's the real deal. She has been offering one-on-one workouts for decades. And now there is ZOOM. Lori makes me feel like we are in the same room. She makes me laugh, she offers great feedback and she is encouraging. I have graduated from micro weights to heavier weights. I am so blessed, lucky, and honored to have Lori Cable as my Personal Trainer.
Megha Nancy Buttenheim
Lori is a fantastic trainer! She is extremely knowledgeable about fitness, nutrition and wellness, and she is also patient and encouraging. Lori is also great at making the workouts as fun and entertaining as possible.
I’ve been extremely impressed with how easy and effective the virtual workouts have been. While I loved in-person workouts with Lori, I actually like the virtual more! I get the same results, and we have more flexibility in scheduling.
Bottom line, I’ve worked with other trainers in the past, and Lori is the absolute best!! In addition to being an excellent trainer, she is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met!
Michelle Armour
I wholeheartedly recommend Lori Cable as a personal trainer! I have worked with Lori one-on-one for many years--several years “in person” in the gym of the Berkeley, California YMCA and online during the past year and a half. She is extraordinarily kind, patient, respectful, responsive and fun. She works with clients of all ages, putting them at ease and adapting workouts to suit their wishes and needs. She puts a lot of effort into creating tailor-made, thoughtfully-designed workouts and is super positive and encouraging. For someone like myself who is somewhat exercise-phobic, she makes sessions enjoyable by keeping up a fun conversation. She is very sympathetic and supportive regarding physical challenges (such as joint pain & osteoporosis), researching appropriate exercises and regularly checking in to ask whether any exercises are causing discomfort. Lori has adjusted extremely well to on-line personal training, adapting workouts to whatever equipment people have on hand and maintaining a very warm, easy-going approach to asking people to move around their device so that she can see them. I can’t recommend Lori highly enough. You won’t regret hiring her as your personal trainer!

I’ve been working with personal trainers since breaking a shoulder in 2007. Lori is terrific! We started on Zoom during the pandemic … I wasn’t sure about using Zoom but it’s fine. Until the cat knocks the iPad over! We’ve recently added yoga sessions and that has relieved a knee issue I had for months. Lori’s instructions are clear and she’s very patient. She’s very knowledgeable about how to address or work around aches and pains. She even documents the workouts in the hope that I’ll do the workout on my own. No trainer has done that for me before and having the info at hand actually works!
Diana Schlesinger
For 10 years I’ve been lucky enough to workout with Lori Cable. My workout group has people in their 50’s, 60’s and 80’s and Lori really meets all of our needs. She checks in with each of us before putting together a new workout, to consider new ailments and/or to focus on specific body parts. We all have a voice and she makes accommodations (example: options a,b,c, or d if needed for a particular exercise). It’s a game changer. Working out with Lori is fun and doable for anyone. Not only does Lori have a plethora of experience, she’s a kind and interesting person to engage with. Everyone in my group is beyond grateful for Lori’s trainings.

In addition to bringing a beam of sunlight into our lives, Lori also brings a wealth of movement experience to our trainings. Each workout routine is varied, interesting, challenging and sensitive to our group’s specific needs, goals and limitations. Starting the day with Lori is like getting a burst of morning sunshine.

Lori Cable is a wonderful personal trainer: she is highly knowledgeable and personalizes workouts to fit the client’s specific needs. She is also fun, kind, and a great cheerleader, making online workouts fly by. As someone who generally doesn’t love to exercise, I am surprised that I actually look forward to my sessions with Lori. This is a testament to her professional skills and lovely personality. I highly recommend Lori Cable!
Laura Pirott
Lori certainly brightened my life during the pandemic that caused closure of our exercise
facilities here in my “55 and over” community. We discussed my needs and goals
prior to beginning our sessions via Zoom, and she understood completely. Lori is an
accomplished teacher of exercise techniques and yoga. She has a pleasant personality, and I enjoyed working with her.
Valerie K.
I have trained with Lori for over 10 years. She has worked to enhance my body's strength, flexibility and balance. Throughout my life I have always worked out, usually it was a heavy cardio workout. With Lori’s guidance, I have learned how to strengthen my body and build lean muscles as well as tone my body with practical routines that are easy to maintain. Through the yoga techniques I have learned from Lori, I have increased my knowledge of how my body benefits from regular maintenance and movements that isolate areas of my body to help the body function better as a whole. Lori will listen to your goals and help you build up to them gradually, creating habits that are easy to maintain. My goals have changed through the years and because of her experience and years of working with me, it is always enjoyable and fun for both of us. Lori is very personable and easy to work out with. I enjoy interacting with her, and it makes working out fun.
Curtis Sakai
I have worked with Lori as a personal trainer for many years. She is a wonderful and competent trainer…I have great trust in her ability to design a safe, graduated and challenging program and oversee my progress and adjust as needed. She has kept me motivated. She also worked with my disabled partner who is 78 years old, and he was able to increase his mobility and balance. I would recommend her highly for anyone wanting a trainer.
