Welcome to LIFT Coaching!
Hey, I’m Amy, an in person and virtual certified personal trainer (ACSM CPT). My training philosophy is movement is medicine and mind over matter. I focus on strength training functional movement patterns and overcoming fear based mindsets, so that you're able to do the things you want in life with ease and confidence, physically and mentally. My goal as your trainer is to share knowledge, education, and deliver a customized program for your goals that fits your current lifestyle.. Together, we’ll figure out what you want to be able to do today…and what you want to be able to do when you’re 90! Learn more about me here.
Be strong,
Amy

The LIFT Mission

At LIFT Coaching, my mission is to empower individuals to achieve their highest potential by fostering a holistic approach to fitness—one that integrates physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
​
I believe true strength is built not only through physical training but through cultivating a resilient mindset and emotional balance.
By providing personalized coaching, support, and guidance, I inspire my clients to lift not just their bodies, but their lives, unlocking the power within to thrive in every aspect of their journey.​

So how did I get HERE?!

My name is Amy Reed.
I remember the day I decided to prioritize my mental & physical health: January 2, 2015.
​​
I was 29 years old and I physically felt a jolt in my shoulder. It literally hit me. I'm miserable. I'm not living or moving in a manner that is aligned with who I am truly am and who I say I want to be. I spent the next 29 days partaking in Dry January and slowly learning how to run, giving myself the goal of competing in the Special Olympics Delaware 5k at the end of the month. I ran that race and never looked back.
​
I fell in love with movement. With health. I feel better now at 39 than I did at 25. Aside from being strong, strength training has taught me discipline, motivation, patience, and so much more. Physical health IS mental health as well.
You don't have to wake up with or walk around with aches and pains. You can wake up and feel good. You can feel energized during the day. You can feel calm at night. Just moving impacts and improves so many areas of your life!​
​
All this brought me to LIFT Coaching. An acronym for Live Inspired, Find Transformation. And I'm here to help you live a stronger and healthier life.

Lift something. Drink water.​​
