I found out I was pregnant in May 2012 while in the midst of prepping for my first fitness competition with Erin Crawford. Once she knew I was pregnant (and I told her I was going to set aside my plans to compete until after my baby was born) she quickly adjusted my program to reflect a safe, healthy, yet still challenging weight and cardio routine. I delivered my son in October of 2012 and I can honestly say the ease of the delivery was because I stayed so active during my entire pregnancy ( I had no complications ). 4 months after having my son I started to prep for my first contest and sought Erin’s help again. She trained me to a first place finish in the masters division at the 2013 IDFA show in Vancouver. Erin’s diverse training knowledge and encouragement cannot be overstated.

SHELDON
“Erin is a truly excellent trainer! She is the perfect combination of tough ("Erin, you are KILLING me!") and warm ("Sheldon, you are doing SO well"), and she works with the whole person -- mentally, emotionally and physically. Because of her efforts, I am stronger mentally and physically, I have better balance in my life and most importantly, working out has become fun. Throughout my competition prep Erin helped me get through my highs and lows. I was extremely happy with the end results and look forward to working with her again for my next competition in 2014! I highly recommend her without reservation.”

“I feel so happy to be working with Erin Crawford and Body Tempo! I have been going to the gym on and off for years, but never really knew what I should or could be doing during my visits. Her knowledge and expertise in exercise and nutrition, have really helped me set and achieve my goals. The results are astonishing and I feel well on my way to my first figure competition! Erin is a happy, energetic and accommodating young woman, and I will continue to refer friends and family to her for her exceptional services.”

JORDAN SKINNER
My name is Jordan Skinner and have to say since training with Erin Crawford in July I have noticed dramatic changes in my physical appearance. When I first met Erin she sat me down and assessed my fitness level and from there she was able to customize a workout plan that best matched. Since then, Erin has provided me the time and energy to allow me to focus on my fitness, nutrition, and goals to become stronger, healthier, and fitter than I have every imagined was possible. When I first started training with Erin I was 200 pounds and had low confidence in my physical appearance. Over the last 5 months I have not only been provided excellent instruction, but also dedicated support outside the gym with nutritional tips and supplement recommendations to get the most out of my workouts. I am now leaner and in the process of bulking up and continue to see Erin on a regular basis to ensure that I continue to follow my fitness goals. I cant thank Erin enough for giving me the confidence to help me reach my goals. I recommend to anyone who hasn’t met Erin and is looking for a dedicated trainer to get in touch with her because her knowledge, experience, and dedication is second to none.

DEANNA
I was looking for a trainer that could help me achieve my goal of hopefully competing some day. I am so grateful that a friend gave me Erin’s name. She provided me with everything I needed to achieve my goals. My workouts were interesting and challenging. She is professional, knowledgeable, experienced, and caring. I have confidence in her and felt safe with her guidance to push myself. I looked forward to my workouts with her. With Erin’s help I was able to achieve things that I wanted to and then even exceed my own expectations at times. I feel that with Erin’s help I have done my very best and the journey has been so fulfilling and rewarding. Even though I was the one doing the workout I feel that Erin and I both worked hard and had a lot of fun at the same time to get where I am. I feel so fortunate to have met her and I know that the knowledge and skills she has passed on to me will help me maintain my healthy lifestyle I have achieved.

I'd love to send out a big THANK YOU! To my coach Erin Crawford owner of Body Tempo in Nanaimo for all of her amazing coaching and friendship. She gave me the best workout & food plans that kept things progressing towards my goal. She showed me this can be done naturally, keeping my health and wellbeing always as a number one priority! Oh and did I mention we did this online?

1 month into my program 🙂 I don't normally post photos like this but I want to share the wonderful progress I have made with Erin Crawford at Bodytempo . It's been about 4 years on and off trying many workout programs that have helped me achieve some of my goals. However this is the first time I've complemented my workouts with a meal plan. I feel so proud of myself for all the hard work I've put in... It was not easy. I feel happy, healthy, and strong! Can't wait for my next month of progress 🙂

This is progress, progress that has taken me so many long years to achieve, so many setbacks, so many barriers to over come. It was a battle I was ready to give up on, but @bodytempo helped push me beyond what I believed I was capable of, pushed me to my limits and further. Now I'm ready to keep breaking my barriers and push beyond my potential. Erin has been so instrumental in my progress and I'm so grateful. Another thanks to @hardmagnum for the supplements that gave me the added drive and boost to get me this far.

I started working with Erin about 6 months ago. I had always had pain in my shoulder and hips. So much so that I was in constant pain. I had gained weight and was honestly getting scared of going to the gym, in fear that I would make it worse again. Erin and i started at the basics and after just one short month I saw huge improvements. Now I never have any pain, and I feel stronger than I've ever been. The meal plans that Erin provides was another huge sell for me, as i have a very busy work schedule. The meals plans helped to alleviate the stress and guesswork on ensuring I was getting enough fuel for my workouts. Erin is a wealth of knowledge and has catered my plan to suit my needs. Just recently - in a last minute decision. I did my first bikini competition with NPAA. I decided 8 weeks out that I would go for it, just to give myself a goal. Erin never let me quit and was there for me the whole time! She really believed in me when I needed it and I ended up taking home 1st place in the Novice. I can honestly say meeting Erin has had a huge positive impact on my life. Both physically and mentally. Thanks so much for all you do - Angela Gueldenstern Ladysmith, bc Erin is the best. It's been awhile since I felt like my trainer actually cared about me and not my money. Her food plan is amazing and she is great to learn from - Natalie Mercer, Nanaimo BC Erin is awesome! At a time when I needed a change. I took the plunge and called her. Her support and encouragement has helped me regain a love of fitness I had lost. As well a love for myself. My health has improved from the inside out. Mentally, emotionally and physically!
