Sam Hagen is a highly knowledgeable and compassionate trainer. I started working with him 8 months ago with the goal of getting back into fitness postpartum while managing chronic pain from an emergency c-section. Having seen several specialists at Northwestern, I was told the pain would likely be permanent. Enter Sam. Sam incorporates Square1 techniques into our sessions that helped my nervous system better adapt to movement and work through physical triggers. He’s attentive and thoughtful in how he walks through each movement, creating a supportive environment for me to learn and succeed. After about 4 months working with him once a week, my chronic pain was gone. Magical. He vastly improved my quality of life! He also strikes the perfect balance of making my workouts challenging while keeping me motivated – he’s constantly showing me I’m capable of more than I thought. I’ve seen a significant change in my body and feel so much stronger. My experience at Evolve with Sam has been unparalleled and I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a dedicated and exceptionally skilled personal trainer.
