Testimonial – Jennifer, Avid Runner and Magazine Editor
After working out consistently for years, my fitness level had stagnated, and I was frustrated. I had strength trained for about 16 years – spending hours that I didn’t have to spare at the gym, never knowing where my limits were, never seeing results, and always dreading the experience.
Training at Vertex is completely different. The sessions are extremely intense, focused, productive and efficient. It is training with integrity. I feel like I can reclaim hours of my life because I’m not wasting them attempting to strength train unproductively on my own.
Each of the trainers is highly attentive, knowledgeable, and thoroughly understands the way the body works and how to push you to your edge- without injury. They can help you interpret your effort and pain, and give you the courage to go further. They suggest microscopic tweaks to your movements that ultimately make the difference between form and flab.
I’m a runner -I have run in 16 marathons and ultras and run 35-40 miles per week, and have a 3:18 PR (personal record). I have benefited from the strength training program at Vertex. Feeling stronger has improved my quality of life – the way I feel when I’m running, the way my clothes fit, the way I feel when I wake up in the morning, how well I sleep, and how motivated I am to keep pushing, and carving out a better version of myself.

About the author
Dwayne Wimmer founded Vertex Fitness Personal Training Studio in 2001, excited to bring a new concept about personal training to the people of Philadelphia’s Main Line in Pennsylvania. Driven by knowledge and results both, while a strength coach at Villanova University, he worked closely with world class athletes such as Brian Westbrook, formerly of the Philadelphia Eagles, on strength training and conditioning for optimal performance. Dwayne’s client base extends much further than world class athletes. Along with athletes, he works with adolescents to seniors, and he’s a highly acclaimed and sought out personal trainer who has received numerous awards, such as Best of the Main Line Personal Training Studio and Best Main Line Personal Trainer. A graduate of Missouri Western State University, Dwayne has a Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Education, with an emphasis in Coaching. Aside from personal training, he’s spent time as a physical education teacher, strength and conditioning coach, and a football coach, but has found his passion and home in the fitness industry, inspiring and reaching out to others. As a strong believer in continuing to learn, Dwayne has also taken classes at East Stroudsburg University toward a Masters Degree in Sports Management. He can add author to his list of accomplishments, having created a chapter in the upcoming book The Soul of Success with Jack Canfield, renowned for the Chicken Soup series. To get to the point where he is now, Dwayne has always been thankful for the support of his father, a man who always believed in his mission and saw the need for what it was that Dwayne envisioned. During his free time, Dwayne is an avid motorcyclist who enjoys viewing the amazing landscapes and finding good restaurants to enjoy that are off the beaten path. He also takes advantage of opportunities to travel and experience many other cities while attending fitness seminars and giving presentations about the industry he is so passionate about. As a way to give back to the community that has been a part of his entire life, Dwayne has created Vertex Fitness PUMPED (People United Making Progress through Education and Donations), which provides support to area non-profits through a community-wide outreach effort. At this time, they help three non-profits per year in the Philadelphia area. For more information from Dwayne, you may contact him at (610) 525-6604, dwayne@vertexfit.com
