Optimum Fitness was founded in 1999 by Patrick and Sherrie Pilege with a vision to provide individuals in the Omaha community with the tools and motivation needed to achieve a total lifestyle improvement. Over the years, we have grown to include a dynamic team of highly trained and nationally certified personal trainers, physical therapists, nutritionists, and wellness consultants.
Our approach is rooted in three core principles. #1 Workouts should be fun! We believe that exercise should be an engaging and enjoyable experience. Our success is rooted in our ability to create programs and environments that motivate and excite our clients. #2 Individualized attention gets results! We understand that every individual has unique needs and goals. Our trainers take the time to understand each client's specific needs and develop personalized programs to help them achieve their goals. #3 Keep clients motivated and inspired by some of the best trainers in the Omaha Metro. Our trainers are not just qualified professionals but also passionate individuals who are dedicated to helping our clients achieve their goals.
