Hello.  My name is Nicola Strother, and I am the personal trainer at the Racquet Club of Irvine.  I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself.  I am a NESTA certified personal trainer and a certified nutrition coach.  As a teenager, I was a competitive gymnast, training 6 days a weeks, 5 hours a day.  Being in peak condition was critical.  As I grew, I continued along the path of strength training and cardiovascular workouts, and eventually parlayed my athleticism into a career as a stuntwoman in Los Angeles.  Again, being in great shape and knowing my muscles - their strengths and limits, helped me succeed in another fiercely competitive field.  Some of the actresses that I have doubled are Jessical Biel, Krista allen, Lauren Holly and Sasha Alexander from NCIS.  I have worked on such movies as MIB, Spiderman II, The Italian Job and even boxed Hilary Swank in Million Dollar Baby.  Although I love flipping, kicking and falling, I also have a passion for fitness, training and living a healthy lifestyle. 

As I am at the end of my career of smashing into the ground and through windows, I have become more focused on educating and training adults and juniors who want to improve their conditioning, endurance and strength, as well as tone, tighten and build muscle.

In addition to one-on-one training.  I also offer group agility, flexibility and balance training.

If you have any questions about how to safely and properly use the cardio equipment or weight machines, please don't hesitate to ask.
