During Covid I gained 30 pounds, lacked confidence and struggled from anxiety. I worked with Chris who came up with my meal plan and workout plan. During the last several months I lost 33 lbs, gained confidence and have been able to stop my anxiety meds. Chris provides you everything you need to get the results you want and then some! I never thought I would be able to accomplish this, especially doing everything virtually, I was wrong. Chris is an Amazing personal trainer who listens to you and understands life happens. I highly recommend Chris and Isotolp Fitness!

Both me and my wife started going to Dynamic Human program 2 years ago and we love it. We almost never skip classes and we are in the best shape we’ve ever been.If you have specific fitness goals, I highly recommend Personal Training with Chris. He developed an individual program for me and I completed and exceeded all my goals. This is the most effective way to achieve what you want and it does wonders. Give it a try, you won’t regret it!!!

Its been an year since our family moved and Oh boy, do we miss Chris and his classes.. Absolutely!! If you are in need of a fitness routine that you want to hold yourself accountable to and also get reasonable results with a no nonsense approach, please sign up with Chris. He is one of the best out there and you will certainly not find a professional trainer so easily. To start out, the classes would sound expensive, they are indeed not. We sign up at other places for variety and childcare and what not. We take a more variety for less as a good thing.. but you will realize after signing up with Chris that his classes are much easier to fit in your fitness routine without feeling overwhelmed and you will realize less is more. All his workouts are full body workouts, every routine is a new routine and you will always be challenged no matter where you are in your fitness journey. Love Isotolp fitness, Chris and the entire community he has brought together.

My husband and I have been members for several years. What I love most is that we were accepted with where we were emotionally and physically. We got stronger but more importantly... healthier. We love the people and love the accountability from our fearless leader, Chris!

Im a firm believer that results create value. At Isotolp, Ive not only found results, but also a family to help me achieve and sustain them. Chris is an intelligent trainer. He understands the mechanics of the human body and trains in such a way to achieve maximum results without the bull-headed, The more you hurt, the better youve done mentality. I tried to sustain my results on my own outside of Isotolp and nothing could compare. I happily will be a client of Isotolp as long as I am physically in the same area.

I began working with Chris at Isotolp Fitness through his online program. To be honest, I was skeptical about whether it would really work for me because how would someone who was over 600 miles away be able help me lose weight and get fit? I mean, how would he really know what I was doing? Trust me....he always knew. ;) Of course I kept him up to date about what I was doing, but soon my results spoke for themselves. I have never been so happy to be wrong. Not only did it work, but Chris always seemed to know (even before I did) what would be most helpful and challenging not only with workouts but also nutrition. He helped me get into the best shape of my life, before we even met in person. Through a series of personal events, we ended up moving locally so I am fortunate enough to attend a variety of classes that are always challenging and fun. I have also done some personal training and am now part of a small group personal training. I have learned to challenge previous limits and have accomplished things I never thought possible. Signing up with Isotolp Fitness has been one of the best decisions I have ever made.

Our Trainer, Chris designs sessions to hit every muscle group of our body with strengthening and cardiovascular training. He allows us to attend unlimited classes within our fitness levels. When it comes to his fitness programs, his creativity and innovation is endless. As a 61 year old woman, I have thoroughly enjoyed his program for the past 4 years. During that time, Chris has helped me become healthier, and I am in much better condition than my previous 10 years. His positive and friendly environment made me feel welcomed from the first day and the studio is very clean and neat. I am impressed by the fact that Chris is not only a certified trainer, he lives up to what he advises for all of us concerning nutrition, physical fitness and a healthy lifestyle. He walks the walk and is an excellent role model for all of us.

I have been a loyal member for many years now and can’t say enough amazing things about Isotolp fitness. I have never belonged to a gym before where you felt like family walking through the door. The amount of motivation and support you get from your peers and Chris is one of a kind. His classes and nutrition plans are uniquely designed to get you results and they do!!! No matter what your fitness level there is a class for you and plenty of people to give you the support you no matter where you with your faintness goals!! Highly recommend!

I started with Isotolp fitness in January 2018 after I found myself plateauing in my fitness and weight loss goals. My wife had been going to Chris for a couple months at that time and turned her Mom bod into a chiseled 6 pack. After witnessing her transformation, I knew that I wanted something more for myself. In only 2 months of one on one personal training sessions (2 x per week) and following a personalized meal plan made by Chris, I was able to shred over 20 lbs and lose countless inches of fat. I am continuing to work with Chris and he has adapted my plan along the way. Together, we have big goals for myself and I know it is possible because he believes in me.The difference between Chris and any other gym or personal trainer is that he creates an individualized plan that is made for only YOU! He has over 20 years experience in the field. Take a look at the man. He is a fine chiseled machine that only the likes of Michelangelo could create!I feel like a new man. I have an incredible amount of energy and confidence in only two short months. PLEASE, stop wasting your time and money with other gyms and personal trainers. Go see Chris and invest in yourself and your life! You will NEVER regret the decision.

Isotolp has become an important part of my fitness routine - which has helped me become a lean, fit, and faster runner. For nearly 6 years, Ive regularly attended dynamic human classes - and I have never been bored or wished class would pass more quickly. Chris is an expert and a true professional who has always supported me in my individual fitness goals.

Joining Isotolp Fitness has been the best decision I have ever made for my fitness and overall total health. The Dynamic Human classes are fun and effective. They change throughout the week which keeps things fresh and exciting. There are several class times making it easy to fit in a workout for those busy with work and life schedules. Small class sizes ensure that you are not just a number in a huge group class but an individual working toward the same goals as everyone else. Chris offers so many other fitness programs such as small group training, personal training, ab/core classes, nutrition planning, and sports stretching to name a few truly making Isotolp Fitness the complete fitness studio. Chris is not the type of trainer to stand over you, yell, or be intimidating in any way. He ensures that exercises are done properly while being friendly, fun, and supportive to help you get the most out of your workout.I am a runner and when I initially joined I told Chris I wanted to improve my running. At that time, I had run 5Ks and one half marathon. His exact words were, My classes will make you a stronger runner. He was absolutely right! In two years, I have dropped 20+ pounds, increased my running pace, and run my first full marathon which I would never have been able to do on my own. I look and feel healthier, sleep better, and overall just feel good. Plus, my kids see me working hard which teaches them the importance of health and fitness. Now it takes work, but Isotolp Fitness has a vibe that makes you want to work harder. Fellow members are encouraging and supportive which is rare from my experience. Chris Tolp is the real deal when it comes to highly effective trainers and will help guide you towards your personal goals. Be sure to check out the before and after photos on the website as this is what ultimately led me to checking out Isotolp Fitness two years ago….real results.

I used to hate working out and this place has been a game changer for me. About 1.5yrs ago I was climbing in pant sizes and decided I wanted to get serious about my health without relying on past diets that never worked. I decided to try Isotolp and after 4 months my clothes fit better, I wasnt out of breath walking up stairs and I just FELT better. The Dynamic Human and specialty classes always offer variety and challenge you to push yourself each time. Chris is an expert at what he does and his honesty has never steered me wrong. He creates an atmosphere of support and accountability which I need to reach my fitness goals. What is exceptional about this gym is that everyone in the classes is the same way - supportive, positive and accountable - creating an atmosphere that is fun to be around too. I now look forward to working out.

Isotolp Fitness has been apart of my life for the past year. It’s been a life changing experience for me and I never doubted joining for a minute. I’ve made friends AND I’ve gotten to actually enjoy working out now! This has been a life saving change for me and I cannot thank Chris Tolp enough for being dedicated and inspiring to me to be my best self!!!

I have been looking to break some bad eating habits, and get back into racing shape for a while. After reading and seeing what Chris can do as personal trainer I decided to try his online training program out from across the country (I am in Utah and he is in North Carolina). He is very detailed and will let you know what you need to do to reach your goals. He will answer all of your questions and holds you accountable. His nutrition plans are great and one of the biggest things I needed help with. If you are looking to make a big change in your life, Isotolp Fitness can help make it happen.

If you are looking to find a way to get in shape there is no better place to be. I am in in my late 50s and with the coaching and the guidance available from Chris, have lost 75 lbs and become a better athlete than I was in my 20s. No hype or gimmicks, just sound exercise and nutrition advice. Recently, I was involved in a cyling accident and the dynamic human classes have had a major part in my recovery. So much so, that my physical therapist wanted to know how I recovered so quickly. Again, just sound guidance and sensible exercises weekly. If you need to change, this is the place to get the help to reach your goals!

Ive been attending Isotolp classes and doing personal training for about 6 months and have seen a drastic change in my body composition. I have always been a fit person and regularly worked out but never saw a real change in my body. Chris has changed my entire mindset on not only fitness but also nutrition and I am finally seeing the changes in myself that I have been so longing for. The workouts, relationships with the other isotolpers and moral support that everyone offers, along with Chriss no holds back opinions, have caused me to cancel my other gym memberships and I cant see myself looking back! I cant say enough good things about my experience so far.

I had the great pleasure of working with Isotolp owner Chris Tolp for 2 years before he started Isotolp. He is extremely knowledgeable, hardworking, and fun to be around. I’ve watch him help numerous clients achieve incredible fitness results. If you’re looking to get into a program that will change your life contact Isotolp Fitness today. Highly recommended.

Isotolp Fitness is a privately owned studio run by Chis Tolp who is a highly accomplished and talented trainer. Apart from personal training and nutrition consultations, Chris offers boot-camp style classes which include various aspects of core, stability, body-weight, and plyometeric exercises. No two sessions are the same and Chris designs each one of these himself.I have been coming here since 2012 and Chris has not only helped me with my fitness goals but also created a very friendly environment, a place where everyone knows you and motivates you. If you are looking for something different from the regular run-of-the-mill kinds offered by other gyms around, I highly recommend Isotolp Fitness. Give Chris a call today and you will not be disappointed.

By far the best every day persons bootcamp. Best trainer ever. Chris is awesome and works with you on your fitness. Its not your normal drill Sergeant bootcamp. Chris really cares about your health and works around any issues you might have. Oh, and no mirrors! Love this place and have been going to Chris for over 3 years now.

There is a definite reason why Chris has a five star rating. He is an expert in his field and sets his clients up for high levels of success. After witnessing my wife transform her body while working with Chris I made the decision to sign up for personal training. That has proven to be one of the best decisions I have ever made. By following his goal specific nutritional advice and working out with Chris I have seen a tremendous change in my body.Similar to many of other Isotolpers I have tried many different approaches to exercise and fitness over the years, but I have not gotten results anywhere close to what Chris has helped me achieve. I really appreciate the fact that he uses pictures (before, progress, and after) to help you see that his program and your hard work are changing your body.I do some of the specialty classes offered at Isotolp. Every single person that I have met and worked out with at Isotolp is positive and encouraging. It is a great group of people to be around as we all strive for improved fitness.Finally, I have to reiterate the results that Chris has helped me attain. I am back to a 32 waist (first time since college). I have been able to drop fat and add muscle at the same time. My wife says I look the best I have in the 15 years we have been together. I feel great and if you make the decision to work out with Chris and follow his lead I guarantee that you will too.

I have been going to Isotolp Fitness for over 5 years. I have been in the best shape of my life ever since.

I have been going to Isotolp Fitness for over six years. Best decision I ever made. I cannot recommend Isotolp Fitness enough. The trainer, Chris Tolp is an expert in his field, with his spot-on nutrition plans, information, support and work-outs geared appropriately for our individual levels and needs. I was gone from the area for about 10 mos, and upon my return, I immediately signed up at Isotolp Fitness again. Feeling like I was starting from scratch, I appreciated the encouragement of my IsoPals and Mr. Tolps guidance.... and now, at 61.5 years of age, and after just a few months of consistency, I feel stronger than before. The community he creates at Isotolp is priceless. There is no way you could go wrong with a community like this. I am stronger, faster, younger and happier because of it. Try it... you will NOT regret it.

I was looking for a local gym almost 3 years ago when I drove by Isotolp Fitness on US 64 in Apex on my way home from work. I took a chance, stopped for gas and took a photo of the phone number stenciled on the front door. I called Chris and set up a meeting to find out more about what he offered- I had no real idea what level or type of training he provided or if I could even make it through one of his classes he described. I was a little intimidated, but knew I felt more comfortable here than in one of those mega gyms. Chris started me out in the level 1 class - thanks for that - I survived and kept coming back to my scheduled class. Chris would check in with me periodically as I progressed and tell me whenever he thought I was ready for the next level up. The progression was great for my motivation and I felt stronger as I strived to maintain my consistent attendance to classes. Almost 3 years later Im still here, still happy I stopped by and gave this place a try.I have since moved to Raleigh, but I still drive back to this great little exercise studio in Apex. My friends and family ask me why. At first It was the positive feeling I got from supporting a locally owned business - as I spent more time with Chris during our group exercise I began to really value and trust his opinion and guidance with exercise and nutrition. I also really appreciated that he changes things up periodically and strives to keep the routines fresh and challenging. What makes me continue to come back is the accountability and support I get from Chris and the rest of my workout family. We laugh together, share funny stories about our kids and spouses, encourage each other to sign up for races, and motivate each other to continue on our own individual fitness journeys.Obstacle course race this coming weekend with 5 other clients from Isotolp Fitness. Never would have signed up for these races 3 years ago but have really enjoyed making it through the race as a team with my fellow Isotolpers!

I have been going to Isotolp Fitness now for over 2 years which says alot because I am not a gym person but this is so much more than that. The classes Chris does are amazing, there are multiple levels & class times that can accomodate anyones schedule. Its more than classes as well, he also offers meal planning, personal training, sports stretches & more. Chris knows what works & he is a trainer who doesnt just talk the talk but leads by example. I highly recommend Isotolp Fitness for anyone looking to change their lives for the better!

Ive been attending Isoltop for the better part of 5+ years. I think this longevity speaks to the ever-changing dynamics of the classes. Chris Tolp is a trainer that creates classes that are challenging, but allow everyone to feel successful. Ive never gotten bored in class, and always feel like my body responds better to the demands I put on in in other activities, but especially in running. In addition to the dynamic human classes (i.e. youre going to tackle every major muscle group in class), he also offers specialty classes like ab lab, HIITs, and an arm focused workout. It has been great to have small classes and a trainer who genuinely cares about his clients by making the relationship always feel 50/50.

Several weeks ago, friends recommended Isotolp Fitness to me. Id been active all summer long and watched what I ate, but wasnt making the fitness progress I expected from my actions. Id joined other gyms before but always felt anonymous as if no one would really notice or care if I showed up or not -- I just never connected. I needed a different approach and I found it in Isotolp Fitness and Chris Tolp. Chris is a great motivator and has guided my nutrition and exercise expertly. In just my first 4 weeks, Ive seen my body change and my mental clarity improve all while making friends and having laughs with my new fitness family. Dynamic Human classes never get boring, and the specialty classes are a great boost. I look forward to continued results and maintaining my healthy lifestyle with Isotolp Fitness.

Over 3 years ago, I decided to get serious about my health and fitness. Up until then I had tried pretty much everything (running groups, exercise classes, fad diets, etc). The Dynamic Human classes, personal training, small group training, and specialty classes are truly one of kind and have been hands down life changing for me. I am down over 30 lbs, dropped 5 dress sizes, and feel incredible. I am STRONGER than ever.There are no short-cuts, fad classes or diets...only hard work, a variety of workouts, and an amazing support system. The outcome = RESULTS. Chris Tolp is an outstanding personal trainer with extensive experience and knowledge in fitness and nutrition. He provides a welcoming and POSITIVE fitness environment (no screaming or yelling here). My fellow Isotolpers are like family.Isotolp Fitness has changed my life. I am nearing 40 and can honestly say that I am in the best shape of my life. I owe it all to Chris Tolp and Isotolp Fitness. There is no other place like it!
