I worked with TJ & Devin on my journey to fitness. They are really the best mentors and workout professionals in Des Moines( I’ve tried a couple of them) especially TJ , who cares like none other. The accountability, motivation, nutrition- guides, workouts, MHF family... is phenomenal.

I was referred to Merle Hay Fitness by friends. I was nervous to join at first because I had gotten so out of shape, but I'm so glad I finally made the leap of faith. This is more than a gym, it's a family! I got nutritional coaching as well as personalized fitness coaching. The support I've received from the staff at Merle Hay Fitness has far exceeded my expectations, and the friendships and support I've gained from members has been an added bonus! I actually look forward to working out now! This place is life-changing!

TJ clearly takes the time to learn about his clients and not just give the same cookie cutter program to everyone. He helped me to understand what specifically my body needs for fuel to achieve my workout goals. I've recommended a lot of people to talk to TJ and will continue to because he knows his stuff and cares.

I began my journey with Merle Hay Fitness and am so pleased with the program that Personal Trainer, TJ Brooks has developed. I definitely couldn't do it without his constant support and dedication. You will not need to look any further nor should you have second thoughts of where you need to be. There is no place like Merle Hay Fitness. The program will teach you nutrition, techniques, and the will in the simplest terms that don't overwhelm you and that is provided in the most friendly, supportive, and fun small group environment. Make the call today!!
