Being a working mother, my time was very limited and my self esteem got to a low point due to the lack of exercising. I had worked with Lisa on and off for years, even during my pregnancy; but soon after my baby was born, I just couldn’t find the time to see her. When she told me about her new fitness DVD, I was thrilled! As soon as I did for the first time, I knew my life had changed! Soon thereafter, everyday after work; I would come home and immediately pop in the DVD and do whatever workout I had time to do: if I had dinner in the oven, I would do the 5 or 15 min workout and if my husband was home to help, I would do the 30 or 45 min workout. In my opinion, with the little amount of time I have, the desire to exercise being low, The Skinny Jeans Workout is the way to go! It is quick, fun and it actually works! After just a few weeks, I started to notice my jeans getting looser, my tummy getting flatter and my butt looking firmer. I now don’t have to hastle with going to the gym, pay gym fees or worry about how I was going to lose that baby weight. I am happy to report, I am now back in my skinny jeans!

Exercise has never been something I look forward to doing! However, with The Skinny Jeans Workout, Lisa G makes working out fun and easy! She knows what areas to target and in the least amount of time. I have told all my friends about it and we all do it together and really work up a sweat! Anyone can do this workout program and I would recommend it to anyone. I have already lost 15 pounds with the simple task of just consistently using The Skinny Jeans Workout!

I am a very busy woman….being the president of a company and traveling! I was never able to get an exercise routine that I liked and stuck with. The Skinny Jeans Workout DVD is the first workout program I have stuck with and actually do, mainly because it is quick and effective. I don’t have the time to go to gyms or take hour long classes. I pop in the DVD for 15 minutes when I get home and sweat enough to make it worth it. And I get to bring it with me when I travel, its perfect!!

Rebecca Cullen, Santa Monica

I am a woman of many virtues. But when it comes to working out, I am lazy. During pregnancy, when my thighs started to expand and I couldn't blame all the gain on baby weight. I hired Lisa to come over, and get my butt off the couch. Lisa never pushed me beyond what was safe for the baby and me, (we monitored my heart rate and I made sure always to drink a lot of water), rather she inspired me to be in the best shape I could be, for the pregnancy and the labor. My labor was quick and fairly easy.

Afterward, Lisa helped me work in a manageable program jogging with the baby jogger, training at the Santa Monica stairs, doing yoga on a blanket in the yard while the baby slept. Lisa managed to keep it fresh and incorporate a realistic routine. Lisa is always upbeat and prompt!

But what I appreciate most of all is her sense of humor. They say if you have a good hearty laugh every day you will live longer, so I can thank Lisa for adding a few weeks to my life. She became much more than a trainer, she felt more like a friend or a sister (a sister who made me sweat a lot).

I have been training with Lisa for five or so years. The venue is my personal gym at home, and I look forward to her twice weekly visits.  She brings her good humor and high energy with her, and makes my workouts thoroughly enjoyable.  I just had occasion to participate in a class reunion of our 8th grade in New York after 63 years.  Everyone attending was 77 years old, except for me. I felt and looked (so I've been told) only 60. Lisa has kept me feeling and looking much better than I'm entitled to.

I started working out with Lisa a few months after I gave birth to my daughter (who weighed a healthy 9lbs., 7oz.!). I was a bit unmotivated to work with a trainer since I didn’t think I could change my body that quickly and I (not so) secretly dreaded putting in the hard work. I figured that the worst-case scenario would be that I was forced to work out a couple of times a week. So, I was pleasantly surprised that working out with Lisa was not only fun, but also confidence-boosting. I have to admit that she made me feel like an actual athlete! Soon, I started to change my diet so that my hard work at the gym wouldn’t go to waste. And quickly, I became stronger and more toned. My entire body composition changed. And I fit into clothing sizes that I had never even dared to try on before. Now, as my daughter is about to celebrate her first birthday, I feel better in my own skin (and clothes!) than I did before I even became pregnant!

Judy

I am a 60 year old, obese woman that has been working with Lisa for four years.  It hasn't been easy for me to exercise due to my arthritis, yet Lisa tailor-made a program for me, focusing on the types of exercises I need to improve my mobility and strength.  She has motivated me to work out and is patient with my limitations while encouraging me to stretch my abilities.  She is very conscientious and comes to all appointments on time, calling or emailing in between to remind me of the appointments.  I like the fact that she is not a clock-watcher and will make sure she gives me my hour's time if I am a little late.  Lisa's sense of fun and humor make me look forward to seeing her.  She has a sunny disposition and is very giving and kind.  She's a terrific person as well as a trainer and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to better their health through exercise.

Leena Arora

A few months after giving birth to my son, I knew it was time to fit back into my "normal” clothes. Gaining over forty pounds, I was determined to lose the excess weight and tone up. I knew I couldn't do it on my own, so I was on the hunt for a qualified trainer who understood my needs. I came across Lisa's card and knew she was "the one" to kick my butt into shape, and she did!!  I lost all the weight and more in a matter of months!! I gained muscle I never even knew I had and my body never looked so good!  I was overly excited with the results, and never received so many compliments, especially from the biggest critic of all -- my husband!  I still follow her regimen, a year later and still ten pounds under my pre-pregnancy weight. Thank you Lisa! I couldn't have done it without you!!

There is LA based personal trainer Lisa Goldenthal also known as "The Sculptor" to her celebrity based clientele. Lisa began as my trainer but ended up a close family friend.
Quote from Paul Zane Pilzer’s book, The Next Trillion

G. Colon, Artist, Attorney, full time mom.

I've had many trainers in the past, but with Lisa I found the perfect balance of motivation and personal touch. Throughout my pregnancy she kept me in shape. She was very knowledgeable about pregnancy, and while working within those parameters still kept my workout challenging. Also now that I have a baby she has been very flexible with my schedule and just great to be around. In my book that is one of the most important qualities of a trainer.

Carter Kirkwood Attorney

Since I have been working out with Lisa not only has my health increased significantly, but my lower back pain has decreased 80-90%

Lara Ladd, Actress and professional athlete

Lisa's personality is vivacious her positive spirit is infectious. She is the only one that can get me out of bed at six in the morning.

Milton Jupiter

After having a triple bypass surgery--I was told by my doctor in no uncertain terms that I must exercise. Lisa was the only one that got me to exercise and regain my health.

Orie Rechtman, Riteman International CEO

"I have been working out with Lisa for over seven years. Lisa is motivating, innovative and applies her vast knowledge of all aspects of healthy living to guiding her clients in fitness training. Over the years Lisa adapted different approaches to help me meet my changing goals and work through several sports injuries." I had many personal trainers over the years - seven years with Lisa and still going strong - speaks for itself."

Elizabeth Tippet

Lisa's positive energy is infectious, which makes every workout fun! I really look forward to working with her every week, whether we're in the gym or doing a beach workout. Lisa's never afraid to push hard and has helped me work toward every single goal I have set for myself. She makes me feel like anything is possible. I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone who's looking for a fun workout with true results.

Brandi Miller

I have been training with Lisa for 3 years now. She is always professional & reliable. Her innovative workouts have kept my interest. We do a variety of activities together, including circuit training, yoga, meditating, kickboxing, tennis, and hiking. Over the years, Lisa has become a good friend in addition to being my trainer. She is a caring, spiritual, fun, energetic, and intelligent individual. I highly recommend her as a trainer.

Sydney Finegold, M.D.

I am eighty-six years old and have been training with Lisa for several years. Lisa is an excellent personal trainer. She is well versed in what she does, is very dependable about her appointments, and listens to and responds to your requests. She is very pleasant and funny, but definitely serious about giving you a first-class workout tailored to your needs and desires.

Sheldon Berger

I've been working out with Lisa for about 7 years now, twice a week. She's made getting in shape and staying in shape enough fun for me to stay with it after being a couch potato my whole adult life. My overall fitness level feels better than I thought it ever would again -- I haven't been in this shape since I was seventeen. About a year ago I went through a pretty serious illness, and I'm certain that being in the shape Lisa has gotten me into had a lot to do with my handling it well and recovering quickly. We've recently made a pact that she'll continue to train me for the next 40 years.

Betsy Rosenblatt, Attorney

I've been training with Lisa G. for years, and she still pushes me to do those few extra reps that I just wouldn't do if I were working out on my own. I like exercising, but somehow I never seem to make time for it in my ultra-busy attorney schedule, except for the times when Lisa is coming to whip me into shape. She knows my goals, listens to me, and can tell when to push just a little harder. And even when I arrive at the gym in a crummy mood, I leave feeling a whole lot happier. When she started putting together the Skinny Jeans Workout, she gave me a preview of some of the exercises that she was putting on the video, and now I know I can look forward to having a virtual Lisa G. with me on business trips, too!
