Raising the bar in Fitness Management. Cutting edge Exercise and Holistic Nutrition Science, refined to fit your every day needs
Melanie and Alex Ackerley are Still operating in Vancouver's West Side. Now at APT Studio. Constantly refining their services to enhance the lives of their clients
Before they went into business together, Melanie and Alex Ackerley, were working as personal trainers at the same downtown gym. There, they soon realized the complementary nature of the services they were each providing clients, and in 2011, they co-founded Better-Bodies Health Solutions, to fill what they perceived as a void in the market for genuine, attentive fitness professionals who were invested in their clients’ long term well being.
“Looking around the fitness business, while we had great relationships with our co-workers and peers, we recognized that there were a lot of trainers and nutritionists who were just showing up and just checking the box and moving on. That’s not really providing the level of customer service or the level of expertise that they should,” says Alex. “And we really pride ourselves in having raised the bar.”
Part of the bar-raising efforts of Better-Bodies Health Solutions involves looking at many different aspects of a client’s lifestyle.
“We don’t usually make the progress we’d like unless we combine nutrition and exercise in a balanced program,” says Alex, explaining the holistic approach of Better-Bodies Health Solutions. “So here we strive to fill the gap between personal training and nutrition, so we don’t leave anything to chance for our clients to reach their goals.”
