BE KNIGHTFIT

Emily has transformed my relationship with food, movement, and my body in the best possible way. I struggled with an ED for years, and her transparency about her struggle, bringing it to light, and seeing her conquer her own struggles has helped me tremendously with my own. I have never felt stronger, more powerful, confident, or had more endurance than ever before! We are doing a running and strength program which I truly look forward to completing each day! Would highly recommend her as a coach for strength, running, or both!

“Working with Emily as my running coach has been an incredible experience. When I started, I had only run a half marathon and was eager to improve my speed while training for a full marathon. Emily has been the perfect blend of kindness and encouragement, always holding me accountable while ensuring I stay motivated.

She has been especially invaluable as I’ve juggled various weddings, trips, and backpacking excursions. Emily has skillfully adjusted my marathon training plan to keep me on track while making sure I get the necessary rest for my body.

Thanks to Emily, I’ve never been healthier or more disciplined in my life. My speed has improved dramatically—what used to be an “easy” pace of 10:30-minute miles has now become a comfortable 9:30. I’m so grateful for everything she does!”

“I have been working with Emily for two months and have already seen such an improvement in both my fitness and my running.  I have a reoccurring injury that tends to flare up when I train.  The workouts in Emily’s app have helped strengthen my legs to the point that I haven’t had a flare up in months. I can’t thank her enough for helping me get back into running!”

“3 years postpartum, I decided to take the leap and run a 1/2 marathon: to prove to myself that I can do hard things. Soon after signing up for my 1/2 marathon race, I found Emily.

I have had the pleasure of working with Emily for several months. In that time, I’ve come to know her as a committed, knowledgeable, and attentive coach. Being a novice runner, I truly was interested in finding the ‘joy’ in running.

Emily has been beyond accommodating and understanding of my experience level. She changed up the routine often to make it fun, yet challenging. Having one-on-one meetings with Emily was extremely beneficial because I truly felt her joy when we spoke and it rubbed off on me and my own training path.”

“I’ve been working with Coach Em as I’m training for my second half marathon and can’t speak highly enough of the KnightFit training program and Em as a coach. Two things that have set KnightFit apart for me are:

My name is Catalina, and I recently embarked on the Knight Fit Half Marathon program, a comprehensive 14-week training plan. I am currently ending week 4, and the experience has been phenomenal. Although I haven’t strictly followed the program’s timing, due to work and related routine adjustments, the good thing about it is that it is flexible that was — Emily resets the weeks in case you are behind and moves everything as requested.

The program is very flexible in that sense. I’ve been progressing at my own pace and still seeing remarkable results in both my physical condition and endurance.

Prior to this program, I had barely incorporated any strength training into my running regimen. Now, I’ve noticed a significant reduction in muscle pain and soreness, which has been a game-changer for my overall running experience. The structured strength sessions included in the Knight Fit program are incredibly beneficial, highlighting their importance for building endurance, improving speed, and preventing injuries.

I wholeheartedly recommend the Knight Fit Half Marathon program to both novice and experienced runners. The integration of strength training is crucial for enhancing performance and maintaining long-term running health.

“Emily’s dedication and expertise in her work have truly made a significant impact on my running
and health in general. She made me truly realize that food isn’t the enemy. It is what fuels our
bodies. Her guidance and support have had such an incredible impact on me. She puts so much
effort into me and the rest of her clients and without her help, encouragement, knowledge, and
personal running/lifting plans, I would not see the improvements I am seeing today. I know by
the end of the years I will hit a 5 minute mile! And that is thanks to her! I cannot thank her
enough nor can I wait for my future in running. She made me believe I can achieve anything I
want and dream of. If you are searching for more than just a running coach, you will find it with
Em!”

I loved Emily’s workout program. I started it when I started my half marathon training and I noticed quite a lot of difference. I felt and looked stronger. I was also able to adapt everything as I traveled for work. I loved that they weren’t excessively long–kept it realistic and doable for someone as busy as I am! Emily was super flexible with me as I had some issues getting started. Thanks Emily, for helping me run my half marathon strong!

I’m training for a half marathon and my last half marathon I did not strength train. I ended up getting hurt a couple weeks before the race. I found Emily’s instagram and thought this would be a great opportunity for me to incorporate strength training into a gradual running plan so I could train without injuries. The plan so far has been going great and I feel so much stronger and have remained injury free. Because of Emily and her knowledge I now know the importance of strength training and gaining muscle in order to be a stronger runner. In addition, Emily has been so supportive an encouraging throughout the whole training process and she is always a text away! Wouod recommend her to anyone looking for strength or marathon training! Also, would highly recommend her podcasts. Easy to listen to while running or driving to work! Thanks Emily!

I had my reservations about an app helping me learn how to run–but boy was I wrong! In January and February I was trying to run but I couldn’t make it past one mile. I saw this program on instagram and started talking to Emily. I was like “hmmm seems too good to be true.” But I gave it a shot. I started February 28 with the run and strength training program. This is the only program that I’ve been using to help me succeed in my goals and on April 13 I ran my first 5k by myself! I never imagine I could run the long! I am do proud of myself and I love this program and app because it tells you what to do for four days. You don’t have to guess your workouts or figure out how to make it through a run. I’m so excited for my 5k runs!

From the very start it was evident Emily was invested in my success. Her program is realistic and she is available for every step. Most of all, she is encouraging. Whenever I was struggling physically or mentally, she always had positive feedback to help me keep pushing forward which is essential to anyone’s running journey.

I’m just getting back into running since I had my second baby in December. I am LOVING the program so far and it’s really pushing me and holding me accountable to my goals to complete the race series I signed up for this year. I forgot what it felt like to really push myself and it’s an incredible mode of stress-relief. Being a mama to two girls, running gives me the energy I need to tackle the day as a full time working mom.

I’m thrilled with Knight Fit’s training course for beginners. It’s made a significant difference in my running ability. Comparaed to five weeks ago, running feels much easier now. Just this morning I accomplished my first 6k run–a milestone I couldn’t have imagined before. Thank you for the guidance and support, Knight Fit!

Working with Emily has been an overall great experience for me. Her dedication, friendliness, and unwavering support have propelled me to new heights in my lifting journey as a runner. Emily has instilled in me a sense of confidence and determination that extends far beyond the gym. One that I have noticed in my racing and running workouts. I’m grateful for her guidance and would recommend her to anyone looking to start or transform their strength, running, and fitness journey.

This year, it was one of my goals to prioritize consistent strength training, but I really had no idea where to start. There’s a lot of information out there and I do well with structure. I’ve been following Knight Fit on Instagram for a while and when she released her programs I thought I’d give it a try! I began with an in-app program and am loving it so far! It is easy to follow and the workouts are so fun. I appreciate being able to move the workouts around to suit my schedule. I can already lift heavier weights! Emily has also been great! I appreciate how she occasionally checks-in and is always quick to answer questions if needed. After being injured a few months ago that prevented me from running, following this program had really helped! I’m excited to see how this strength training will support my running and am stoked to keep lifting heavier and gaining strength. Highly recommend giving it a try!

I’m a runner, and I really wanted to get on track with my strength training. I’ll be running a marathon in the fall, and wanted to spend the winter getting back into shape. I found Knight Fit through Instagram, and liked what Emily offered. I started with the training app to step my foot in the door. I am loving the workouts! I can see how they’re geared towards specific muscles that I need to strengthen. Emily is wonderful, as I can easily message her or write a comment about a workout I personally had trouble with, or one I really loved, and she’s always quick to respond and incredibly helpful. I love that Emily is there, even if it’s a small question. I’m excited to see where this journey takes me, and excited to hire her once I’m ready for a marathon coach! I highly recommend giving Knight Fit a try!

I began searching for a training program that would prepare me for my next race while maintaining my strength training. I tried all kinds of programs before I decided to contact Emily and try out her hybrid training program. I have to say, this was the best thing to ever happen to me in a long time.  Your program was the first to give me confidence and believe in myself. I’m finally able to run distances without getting injured and I have gained my strength back. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Working with Emily has truly changed my perspective on exercise and movement. With her individualized workout plans, weekly check-ins, and super caring and fun attitude, I have found such an enjoyment and gratitude for moving my body, and have seen SO much progress in my fitness goals! Her balanced approach has helped me find a more confident, healthy, and strong version of myself, and I am excited to keep growing in my journey with her guidance and support!

Emily has helped me so much since we’ve started training together. She makes easy-to-follow workouts and checks in with me to make sure I’m on track to accomplishing my goals. She’s also been amazing at making accommodations for situations where I don’t have a lot of time but want to squeeze a workout in or don’t have weights to use. I am excited to keep working with her and can’t recommend her enough!

I absolutely love working with Emily! Her workouts are exactly what I was looking for. They are challenging and fun. She’s also extremely supportive and encouraging and is willing to answer any questions I have.

I am training for my first half marathon but struggled coming up with a training plan myself, especially one that worked in strength training as well. I found Knight Fit and she has planned everything out perfectly and checks in regularly to see how I am feeling and if anything needs to be changed. I feel very prepared working with Emily and she definitely helps me stay motivated and believe in myself. I’m so happy I found her and her program!

During the beginning of my training with Emily I never imagined doing the mileage at the speeds I am now. Emily has helped me become a better runner and hybrid athlete these past ten weeks and I am the healthiest, strongest, most energized version of myself. Without her, I wouldn’t have the knowledge that I do now about being a hybrid athlete and am forever grateful! I plan to continue working with her in the future because she is the most caring and authentic coach I’ve ever had!
