Cathy McDougall

“Exercise isn’t something you must endure, it’s something you should enjoy...because the end result is a healthy, happy, you!”

Cathy McDougall holds her personal training certification through AAAI/ISMA, and is a certified APEX Fit Pro. She’s a busy mother of two boys who knows full well the challenges of getting to the gym every day. However, as a self-proclaimed “gym rat” she says making time for fitness is the most important thing she can do for herself, and her family.

Cathy is an Emmy nominated former television reporter, who turned her love of fitness into her second career. After leaving NBC-4 in Columbus, Ohio, Cathy began competing in amateur fitness/figure competitions. She trained for four shows, and placed third in the Gold’s Classic in Wilmington, DE in November of 2002. Cathy says having a goal, no matter how big or small, is crucial to anyone who’s serious about living a healthy, happy life.

She lives by the expression, “Fitness is a journey, not a destination”. She is determined, excited and willing to help people enjoy their individual journeys.
