I love working with Wally and Janice! Iβve definitely gotten stronger. Iβm liking the way my clothes are fitting, I can see more muscle mass, and have more energy. Not only do they work closely with me during workouts, Wally also creates meal plans to help me lose the extra weight. Iβm so pleased with my membership!

Body by Wally is an excellent gym. The owner, Wally, knows every client by name. All workouts are individually constructed to meet the needs of the client. He specialized my workout due to my age,56, and my autoimmune disorder. He truly cares about each person and their progress.

I absolutely looked forward to the training Wally had for me. If youβre on the fence and thinking that you need help do not hesitate and see Wally. The man is the real deal. In my opinion Wally is of the best and have no idea why heβs in Augusta and not located in NY or California training the celebs.
Iβm an veteran and let myself gradually go and submitted to my injuries sustained on active duty. My military injuries are quite the list. The man will help you beat those demons back. I only wish I could have stayed in Augusta for more of the sessions. Unfortunately life took my wife and I back to Michigan
Wally. I miss the camaraderie and wish you and your staff only the best. AND to those whom are thinking of talking to Wally I say walk through that door and get living.

Body By Wally....Been with Wally for several years and have enjoyed the experience. Wally is very passionate regarding his trade and maintains/updates his equipment on a regular basis. His prices are very competitive and a potential customer has several choices. He is very comfortable working with young, middle and senior aged customers.
If you are interested in improving your physique, then Body By Wally is an awesome selection.

At 55 I fell playing pickle ball and had wrist surgery a few months prior to joining Wally. I had got slack in my workouts and my slow recovery was holding me back. Wally took the time to listen and explain which exercises I could do and which I couldnβt. His expertise is amazing and he is authentic and caring towards everyone. He got me out of a hole and back on a regular routine. I would recommend Wally to my friends!

Wally is a wonderful trainer who is skilled, experienced, and enthusiastic at what he does. I have trained with him for a little over a year now and have achieved all of my fitness goals with his help. He keeps me motivated and is often times more than happy to work with me when scheduling issues arise. Very much worth the investment!

Wally is a professional in every sense of the word. He is a fantastic trainer, as well as is his assistant Nancy. I enjoy the quality of his training and his individual approach. The facility is so clean; the equipment is of high quality. He is an encouraging person and enables me to advance as quickly as I am able. I highly recommend this facility and trainer.

I've been with Wally for a little over 3 weeks. I am very pleased with the training. There is never over 3 trainees in the gym at any given time, which lends itself to safety and one on one training. Wally is very committed to fitness and holds me accountable for my wellness. I look forward to this partnership with Wally.

My fiance and I have worked out with Wally multiple times. He is professional, thorough and extremely friendly. I always leave his classes feeling exhausted yet stronger. He approaches fitness from both an exercise and nutrition standpoint. I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking to follow through on a resolution to become healthier.

I feel taken care of. I don't like the "corporate" feeling of regular gyms. Wally is to Publix what Gold's gym is to Walmart, lol. The price is beyond reasonable, and the personalized treatment is what makes you want to go again, as they make you feel you have a responsibility to yourself.

Iβve been training with Wally for over a year & I love everything about his gym & his training methods. He listens to every person that walks into his gym and designs specialized workouts based on their goals, abilities, age, injuries, etc. Be prepared to sweat, to be encouraged, and to be changed from the inside out. Iβm this gymβs #1 fan!

My husband and I started going to Body by Wally because we are out of shape and we have tried a lot of other programs that just didn't fit right. We needed more personal attention and something that works more with us individually. My husband, for example, is a 6'6" military guy with a knee injury, and I am a 5'4" ...I don't know what to call myself...unathletic squirrel with neck & shoulder issues? ;) Wally has been a Godsend for us because he knows exactly how to cater the workouts to us individually, and the thing I like best is that I feel like I'm truly getting a workout. But its one I dont hate. He is also very encouraging and he will send texts to check on you and encourage you to come in, which is probably one of the top things I need. I haven't been there long, but I already feel at home there, and that speaks volumes. Its a very great experience with a very great, talented trainer who understands two things very well: people and fitness. I recommend this place 100%.

Wally cares very much about his clients meeting their fitness and health goals. He obliged me in sending me texts to make sure I come in regularly and makes sure I work hard when I'm at the gym. In a month I've lost 10 pounds and my % body fat has dropped 6 points!

I have been training with Wally since August 6, 2017. He creates an atmosphere that is enjoyable and fun while providing guidance for exercises to increase strength, balance and overall well being. Working with Wally provides the benefits of a personal trainer while remaining affordable as he trains several clients simultaneously. His equipment is more than adequate and he provides clear instruction on its use. My personal background includes 22 years as a commissioned Army officer with numerous assignments training soldiers in physical fitness and a second career in medicine as a Physician Assistant.

In June of 2017, I had total knee replacement surgery. Been having a lot of struggles getting back in shape and trying to build muscle in my legs as well as losing weight. One day I was driving on Columbia Road and noticed a sign that said Body by Wally. So I decided to google and find out more what was Body by Wally. I read reviews and one review I read was about a lady having knee surgery as well as other surgeries and Wally got her in shape. I can honestly say that I have paid for trainers at certain membership gyms and was never happy with the outcome. Fast forward here it is Oct. 18, 2017 and I want to tell everyone that I am so thankful GOD directed me into meeting Wally. Just over 5 weeks, I have lost 3 lbs and 4 inches. Now to some people that doesn't seem like a lot but you have to remember I'm still recovering from my knee surgery; therefore, I'm somewhat limited on some of the exercises. But with the help of Wally's knowledge and expertise plus my dedication to improve myself, I can say my knee has improved tremendously. Check out Wally's website and drop by to see what it's all about!! You won't regret it. I have met some very nice people and Wally makes you feel like family the minute you speak with him. As soon as I get to my goal, I will post before and after pictures.

Wally is a knowledgeable, top-notched trainer. You set the goals you want to achieve and he'll create a plan so that you can not only meet but exceed your own goals. He's always creating new routines and combinations of exercises to maximize your fitness. Love the opportunity to train on equipment that is only available in Wally's gym. Great guy, great motivator, great gym, definite 5 stars!

Bodybywally is awesome! Wally is a great personal trainer; very knowledgeable. I am older and have never really exercised other than walking and biking. He definitely knows how to make you love exercising. His studio is a great size and has all the perfect equipment. I highly recommend Wally if you desire the personal touch. I cannot wait to see how I change for the better in six months. I have been going for two weeks and feel stronger already. π Peggy
