For 11 years, Farrell's eXtreme Bodyshaping has helped kids and adults get in shape. The changes come in customers' physical and emotional well being.
Farrell’s eXtreme Bodyshaping is a place anyone can go to get in shape with a ten-week fitness program using cardiovascular exercises to burn fat, strength training to build muscle, a nutrition place to help healthy eating and coaches and instructors to help guide your efforts.
Cheri Gilroy, head coach of Farrell’s eXtreme Bodyshaping, has been a coach since August of 2007 and truly loves what Farrell’s represents.
Farrell’s offers tai kwon do for little kids to adults, low-impact Farrell’s eXtreme Bodyshaping- the fit start program and traditional Farrell’s eXtreme Bodyshaping- traditional kickboxing and resistance training.

Gilroy said when most people come to Farrell’s they are looking to change their physical being and lose weight.
“The surprise people have when they come in is we teach them how to live a healthier lifestyle,” Gilroy said. “It ends up being a total makeover for people, not just physically, but emotionally. The relationships people have that happen here, people don’t expect.”
Gilroy said Farrell’s is one of the only fitness programs that still have a ten-week fitness program.
During the program there are three fitness evaluations. The first orientation day, with before photos,is a time to meet the coach, meet team members and initial testing. Then there is a five-week testing and the ten-week testing when a $10,000 winner is declared.
Gilroy said everyone at Farrell’s has to take the ten-week fitness program before taking a class.
“Everyone has to take the ten-week fitness program, even franchise owners,” Gilroy said. “Everyone remembers day one.”
“I believe in the program and live the program,” Gilroy said. “It’s an amazing experience and you definitely get more than your money’s worth.”
