STEW MCDONALD

OWNER OF HOMEFIT

I have been an in-home fitness trainer in the Seattle since 2004, and I love it! It is a privilege and joy to help people of all ages and abilities strengthen their commitment to themselves through weekly exercise.

I believe that vitality for life exists in each one of us and that this vitality is maximized through movement. Through patience and attentive support, I will help hold you accountable so that you move towards your goals with each session. My job is to help you build a mental bridge and strong connection to your physical self through strength, balance, and flexibility.

In my daily life, I am a bit of an introvert, but my passion for transformation and fitness quite literally pushes me out of my own box, and I sometimes can’t hold in my excitement for all the potential that awaits you. My goal is for my clients to mentally get inside of their working muscles, to feel what each body system is capable of.

In the 1980’s, I was trained and mentored by some of the best lifters in Washington State. Then, I was a typical, lanky teen boy filled with insecurities. In those pre-personal trainer days, my mentors showed me that I could achieve anything I wanted through dedication and a routine that supported the mind and body. As a trainer, I get to witness that transformation with my clients daily. Some of my clients had never made physical fitness a priority, until they begin exercising with me. It is extremely fulfilling to help them to realize their potential to do whatever they set out to do.

The amazing thing about physical fitness is that it effects every realm of your life. Through movement, you feel more confident, you feel more capable, and you are proud that you showed up for yourself. It's why I love what I do. When I'm not training clients, I enjoy practicing my Bass guitar, working in my garden, and taking long walks with my wife.

I look forward to helping you on your path to fitness – whatever your goals may be!
