        Hi!  I’m Kristen, the face behind the GetKristenFit brand, which I officially launched in April of 2014.   My whole life I have been an athlete (track, soccer, distance running) and a fitness enthusiast.  In 2009,  I  received my Bachelor's degree in Health Science from Northeastern University and in the years following I  gained experience and expertise by working  full time as a personal trainer,  and group fitness instructor.        The health and fitness industry is always evolving and I work hard to stay educated, informed  and openminded.  My approach to coaching fitness is to be adaptable and to have the mentality that there is more than one way of doing things.   There are many methods and systems that are both effective and safe, and the best trainers will always have  an open mind and be able tailor their programs to the specific needs of their clients or audience.        I take extreme pride in the fact that I have a thorough understanding of anatomy and physiology and how the human body works.  Through science and experiance I know how the body and adapts to stimuli, and how to design programming to yield the specific results that you want.        The best recipe for success when it comes to fitness is to find something that is challenging yet enjoyable and also maintainable long term.   Get Kristen Fit is a lifestyle that incorporates all the the things your body needs to function optimally,  and for you to feel your best now and into the future.       My motivation style is: NO EXCUSES.   I myself have always been internally motivated, especially when it comes to fitness and performance.   There is a plan for everyone, there are modifications for everyone, and there is a way for everyone to feel and look their best……  BUT you have to be willing to push aside your excuses and  WORK FOR  IT!!!!!        I will be your motivator, your cheerleader,  and your drill sergeant when you need it, because at the end of the day:  I see the potential and ability inside of you,  and it is my mission to help bring out the best version of you!!!!!!!
