ABOUT
MEET YOUR TRAINER
Welcome! My name is Maddie Oaks & I am the founder of Oaks Fit LLC. Oaks Fit began in 2020 to support folks who want to build strength & get fit from the comfort of home.
I started resistance training in 2018 but only ever in gyms. In 2020 I became a personal trainer at a local big box gym, but then the pandemic happened. At first it felt impossible to train clients from home with enough challenge to rival the gym.
I have learned many lessons since becoming a trainer that have helped me create a robust resistance training program that can be personalized to any skill level and availability of equipment. Training from home helped me rethink my view of fitness & led to two discoveries:
1. When done right, home training can be just as challenging & rewarding as training in a gym setting.
​
2. Resistance training is more enjoyable when we focus on how it enhances life through strength & mobility, rather than only focusing on how it can change your appearance.
The Oaks Fit Program is the result of these discoveries. We prioritize improvement in your movement so you can stay consistent with exercise & improve strength for everyday activities.
​
The Oaks Fit Program has helped me & my clients build strength & confidence with home workouts without ever needing to step into the gym.

WHY THE MONSTERA LEAF LOGO?
During the pandemic I discovered a passion for houseplants & quickly came to love monstera deliciosa the most. These tropical plants are easy to take care of and just need the basics to grow.
Plants offer a wonderful metaphor for fitness. If you exercise, eat well, hydrate, rest, and get sunlight, you will grow just like a houseplant will grow with water, sunlight, & fertilizer. You deserve to take good care of yourself so you can thrive.
​
Monsteras literally have plant "muscles" called geniculum that help them move towards sunlight. The muscles you strengthen & grow with the Oaks Fit Program will enhance your health & support you as you reach your ultimate goals.
Monstera leaves take on the shape of a heart, symbolizing self love which is foundational to the purpose of Oaks Fit. Self love supports a healthy & sustainable approach to fitness.
