Michelle

Hey guys, it’s your Head Coach Michelle! I’m so excited to lead this amazing team here at BFT Westfield. I’m a certified personal trainer with additional certifications in nutrition and injury prevention, and I also hold a master’s degree in psychology. When I’m not in the gym, I work in Customer Success where I lead a team full-time. I’m a proud mom of two beautiful daughters, you’ll often see around the gym — they are my purpose and my “why” for showing up for myself every day. I’m passionate about health, fitness, and helping you feel strong, supported, and confident. My goal is to make your hour at BFT the best part of your day. I love the Fishers, Carmel, Noblesville and Westfield communities, and I’m so grateful to be a part of your journey. Top 5 Questions Michelle Is Asked #1 - Does the BFT Westfield gym have childcare? Yes! BFT Westfield offers childcare, making it easier for parents to stay consistent with their fitness routine. Their childcare service is designed to give members peace of mind while they train, providing a safe and supervised environment for kids during select class times. This makes BFT especially convenient for busy parents who want a high-quality workout without juggling additional scheduling challenges. It’s part of their commitment to creating a supportive, family-friendly fitness community. #2 - How accurate are the heart rate monitors on the BFT Westfield gym? BFT Westfield’s heart rate monitors are generally very accurate because they use high-quality technology designed for group training environments. These monitors track real-time heart rate, effort zones, and calorie burn with strong precision, helping members train safely and effectively. While no wearable is 100% perfect, BFT’s system is reliable for monitoring intensity, adjusting workouts, and ensuring you’re training in the right zones. Most members find the data consistent, easy to follow, and helpful for measuring progress over time. #3 - What is hybrid strength training? Hybrid strength training combines traditional weightlifting with conditioning or athletic-style movements to build both strength and cardiovascular fitness in one workout. It blends exercises like squats, deadlifts, presses, and rows with elements such as sled pushes, kettlebell swings, or interval training. This approach improves power, endurance, and metabolic conditioning simultaneously. Hybrid training is efficient, time-friendly, and ideal for people who want balanced performance, strong muscles, a strong heart, and the ability to move well in everyday life or sports.
