About Andrea

Health and wellness have been my passion and integrated into my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in Upstate New York playing soccer and running track and I served as a firefighter for 10 years prior to moving to Colorado. There, I studied Exercise Physiology and became certified as a Health Coach and Youth Fitness Specialist.

Combining my experience in athletics and first response with my experience working in the pediatric medical field has been a game-changer for my mindset as a coach and trainer. I have an extensive background working in pediatric specialties!

It makes me incredibly happy to work with teens and young adults to help them build confidence and resilience; I love to share my knowledge in a fun and interactive way and provide information for those in need as well as those who may not have easy access to wellness education.

The most rewarding part of my job is helping clients reach their goals and gain confidence through fitness and wellness!

One of my core values when it comes to exercise is that it needs to be enjoyable- hard work is key but it is necessary to enjoy the process and the journey and everything else will follow!

In my free time, you can find me hiking, bouldering, and exploring new coffee shops!


My favorite client story

Every client is different and every story is different but nothing makes me happier than hearing how happy clients are when they reach their goals- their motivation and excitement is contagious

My favorite quote

"Don't let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in the way of your doing it. The time will pass anyway; we might just as well put that passing time to the best possible use."

My training philosophy

Commitment and fun are two main factors that we value at Team Testa Wellness. We develop a partnership based on established goals and we are committed to our clients' success and expect our clients to reflect that same commitment to their goals. Team Testa Wellness incorporates fun into our programming as well- if clients are not enjoying their experience then they are not as likely to stay committed.

Jessica A.

I’ve been working with Andrea for a few months now and have really grown to look forward to our weekly workouts! She’s so energetic, positive, and bubbly! We have so much fun, but she also kicks my butt! Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a personal trainer!

Henrietta

Andrea is so detail oriented and really puts in the time to customize your program for your particular goals. She is so sweet and fun to be around which makes working out with her that much better. Highly recommend!!!

Melanie N.

Andrea is great! Her program for me is working!

Paula D.

Andrea is the best trainer I've ever had. I look forward to our workouts because I enjoy working out with and talking to her and because I know I will feel great and just the right amount of tired after she subtlety pushes me to achieve more. I feel incredibly motivated to increase my reps/time/weight/stretches with Andrea because she is so encouraging and I because I know that Andrea is customizing and planning how to get me to my next goal each session. She is fabulous at noticing and making slight adjustments to my form so that I'm targeting the muscles and getting the best workout. In addition to the personal training, she sprinkles in great nutrition and wellness tips. She makes me feel strong and capable and she makes me laugh and smile while working out. I give my highest recommendation to Andrea and my fiancé keeps asking when he can start working out with her too!

Sherry W.

Andrea is the best! She has been working with my teenage son who has strength and posture issues. I couldn’t ask for a more patient, encouraging, and inspiring trainer! My son looks forward to his workout with Andrea every week, and has been following her plan for months with incredible improvements. Highly recommend!

Gillian

Andrea is a wonderful experience! and an excellent personal trainer. The individualized fitnesses programs she creates are on spot to help you reach your goal. She truly cares and has so much passion in helping you Improve a healthy lifestyle. Plus my daughter who happens to have Down Syndrome also trains with Andrea. She has created a work out that has allowed my daughter to improve her upper body strength/lower body strength and balance. Most of our kiddos with Down Syndrome have low tone muscle to begin with. She has done an excellent job strengthening my daughter from head- toe. Andrea is always pleasant while reminding my daughter or me, to maintain correct body position. I would recommend anyone who would like to improve their fitness rather it be for you or your child to work with Andrea.

I was relieved that Andrea had the education and background to understand my medical condition. She asked the right questions and developed the appropriate program for me. She's extremely professional and easy to work with.

I’m 59 yrs and 8 months in with my 2x week with Andrea and am feeling so much stronger and mobile. My sessions with her are making me feel 5 years younger.

Andrea is awesome! My wife and I have been working with her for the past year. She developed individual plans for each of us. Its been a lot of fun and she’s really motivated us to keep in shape!

Andrea is knowledgeable, friendly and great at personalizing the exercises any way you need! She's helped me gain confidence and strength and I can't recommend her enough!

Andrea is amazing, she always helps me build work outs, and we adjust to my needs for the session. We always talk, and have great and friendly interactions. She also is very good with helping me schedule appointments and we make the best of our time together!

Gray

My first time working with a personal trainer and Andrea made me feel comfortable and confident right away. I really appreciate the care she takes listening to my goals and preferences to produce customized, full body routines. Plus we have so much fun. Thanks Andrea!

Mandi

She creates great workout plans that leave me feeling energized and pumped. Plus she’s fun to hang out with - not only is she my trainer, but she also feels like a great friend!

Rachel

I have been training with Andrea for over a year and I can’t speak more highly of her. She is a fun, knowledgeable, compassionate, and motivating person. She listens to my woes and formulates workouts that target the right zones. She keeps things fresh and consistently changes things up, so I get a full body workout and introduces me to areas where I didn’t even know I had muscles. Andrea’s fitness regime is sustainable. I no longer dread working out and seriously look forward to my training every week!
