“I’ve been exercising my whole life but found myself in a rut and not getting the results I wanted. The 10 week challenge really changed my life. The nutritional guidance with the work outs improved my energy and sleep while unwanted weight came off and my strength improved.
I feel amazing and can’t believe my body fat is lower now than when I was in university! I couldn’t have done this without your coaching and passion Karen! Very simply, this program works!!! THANK YOU!”
- Trish S.
“Karen, I don’t know how to tell you how lucky and blessed I feel that I found you and your program with its well-rounded fitness, nutrition and spiritual components… the whole meal deal!
I’ve done your 8-Week program from your book, your 10 Week Best Shape Challenge and your 12 Week Advanced Challenge, and I just love the Healthy Living Program which I’ve been on for a long time! I have held you in high praise to anyone who asks me what I am doing and have passed your information onto others! Others have seen the “Karen McCoy” way! I love it!”
- Dawn B, Sooke, BC
“After attending one of Karen’s seminars, I knew I wanted to train with her. But my family relocated and I thought I had missed out. Luckily I found her online 10-Week Challenge…now I could work out at my own gym and on my own schedule. Brilliant! I learned so much on the Challenge. Initially, I just wanted to lose 10lbs, which I did! More importantly, Karen’s on-line Challenge introduced a new way of thinking about goals, weight resistant, and clean eating. Working with intensity was a major building block of the program and now, I’m present with each and every rep and give it my full attention, a great lesson which I try to teach others every day. I then went on to do her Advanced 12-Week Challenge and I got down to 15% bodyfat, and I entered my first-ever physique competition! I’m now on her HLP program with its monthly workouts and non-stop nutritional guidance which really keeps me focused and on track! Never thought I’d be a position to offer inspiration to others. I do enjoy sharing the Healthy Lifestyle that Karen continues to teach us all!”
- Leanne La P., Victoria, BC.
"As an author and international speaker, I meet many amazing coaches, trainers, authors and inspirational leaders. When I met Karen McCoy, I instantly realized this woman was in a league of her own. Her passion for health and fitness is driven not by vanity or ego - although she looks very much like a world class athlete. Karen is a living example of channeling her struggles and feelings of fear and loss into a life-enhancing, productive, empowered, healthy way of living, loving, moving, giving and receiving. Her book, One Rep at a Time, pulls together everything one would need to feel physically, emotionally and spiritually strong!"
- Crystal Andrus Morissette, bestselling author, founder of The SWAT Institute
"It's a testament to how many women's lives you have impacted! You have changed mine forever and so grateful Leanne introduced me to you! Thank you from the bottom of my heart you are such an inspiration and a beautiful friend I will always cherish our friendship."
- Deanna Pfeifer, Victoria, BC
“As a bestselling health author and nutrition and fitness professional, I have never had the need for a personal trainer. Having said this, I would not hesitate to hire Karen McCoy, as she is one of the best trainers in the business – bar none! As a man, hiring Karen is not an option, so if you’re a woman and you want to get in the best shape of your life for the rest of your life, look no further – Karen is your expert of choice!”

"OMG Karen, I can't believe what your program has done to my physique. I was laughing out loud at the computer last night while watching the legs video. While you were hammering your quads in the strip sets, you said, "That's the difference between the girls and the women". I often say this to myself to squeeze in another rep during my workouts! Thanks so much - you've changed my life! I wish I could get through this computer and hug you! And I loved your coaching style… organic, clean, and with so much love! Thank you for helping me make my dream to compete a reality!”
- Jane Henson, (right) competitor and HLP member
“I finished the 10 week challenge at the end of 2014 and I cannot say enough about the program and Karen's training technique and knowledge of the industry. I'm now onto the 12 week advanced one starting this Friday with Karen and cannot wait to see what is next ...the challenge is not necessarily about losing weight but if that's your goal you will! For me it was about toning, sculpting and learning more about weight training and how relevant it is. I'm 48 and I honestly never believed that my body could change at my age... it has!! Seriously, you’re worth it!!”
- Sue Hodgson, North Saanich, BC
"At 56 years old, I had no get-up-and-go. I started to put on weight, my clothing was tight, and I wasn’t liking what I was seeing in the mirror. I was so tired physically, emotionally and spiritually. I found Karen’s web site, I fought the fear and signed up! It was the best thing I’ve ever done. I started with the Challenge, then moved onto the Monthly Program. I then took her 6-week Metabolism course, and her Walk with Spirit course! All so Awesome! I’ve learned so much in my 2+ years with Karen! She knows her stuff, she is always available, and I love the support of the Warrior Community. If you’re on the fence, just do it! It’s the best thing you can do for your inner and outer health!
PS: I went from 34% body fat to 25% and I’m feeling GREAT!"
- Laura Manning
“I only just found this program two months ago and I can't imagine living without it. I've been telling all of my friends about it...I am really hoping that I can get some on them to join and to develop a California contingent! That would be so awesome!”
- Amy Rodriguez, California
“Karen, you are a fantastic trainer. You truly care about your Warrior Women. The thing I love most about you is you keep it real, and you don't make silly promises. You are honest and realistic about how being fit at 50+ is more challenging and 50 is NOT the new 30, but 50 can still look and feel great! I have learned so much while being a HLP member!”
- Connie Burrus, Texas
“It’s been awhile since joining Karen’s online training program, and this is the best I’ve felt in a very long time! Yep, I’ve been sore after each workout but that’s okay – and I realize that I do have muscles!! I feel energized and happy that I’m on my way to a healthy lifestyle. There’s so much to learn from you… I feel very positive about the new direction and changes I’m making. I want to take charge of my health, body, mind and spirit – and through your program I know I can do it. In the two short weeks of lifting weights, coupled with the cleanest eating I have ever done in my life, I love how I feel!”
- Trish Flanders
“Thanks for another great year of helping me and others kick ourselves in the butt, to push ourselves to constantly get out of our own health and fitness comfort zones. Those continuous tips, workout cards and videos sure keep me on my toes and help me to constantly challenge myself. And the HLP group, well, what can I say other than they’re just a great bunch of people and I enjoy reading their comments every day. Thanks for all that you do. It’s truly appreciated.”
- Karen Walters-Edgar
“I am so thrilled with how far I've come, and this is just the start! Thanks for designing a program that I love, that fits my life, and that shows awesome results if you're willing to commit. You get what you give!”
- Tanya Lee, (right), down 10 pounds in 6 weeks on the Best Shape Challenge, Victoria, BC
“As I look back on the challenge I can see that I have learned so much and for that I am grateful to you. I have gained strength, a smarter way of eating and a stronger belief in myself. I realized that lifting weights and seeing results in how we look and feel is a product of a few things: Consistency, Patience and Lifestyle. This has been a journey for me and it is not done. Thank you for the inspiration on so many levels Karen…you are truly remarkable.”
- Alison West
"Karen, I just want to thank you for the dedication and commitment you bring to those of us who take this challenge. You gave me the incentive, and means to commit to a more vigorous and challenging weight training routine, and many good tips to make my workouts more interesting. Thank you again, I shall not hesitate to recommend you, and your program to my staff, and friends."
- Robin Clarke
“This Challenge has been exactly what I needed. Not only do I fit into my ‘skinny’ pants, but my confidence is going way up again too! Plus, I love the muscle tone I am developing and I’m looking forward to continuing the process!”
- Sarah Watts, Cranbrook, BC
"After our first meeting with Karen, I knew this was going to change the way I thought about exercise and food. Karen offered sound, in-depth information on nutrition, supplements, how, why and what we eat and weight training turned out to be fun. I ‘lifted and lost’ at least one dress size during the 4 weeks, and have implemented changes every day in my thoughts on food. I can now go to the gym better informed and come out with a sense of achievement. Thank you Karen. I’ll be back!”
- Angela Turnbull
“I have LOVED every part of the challenge. I am proud that I have completed it and stuck it out! I am not as happy with my results, only because I know I didn't give it what I should and could have these past 3 1/2 weeks. I did eat well and I worked out, but the power was not there. One thing that you helped me on during this challenge is realize that this is only the beginning, and 10 weeks is NOT enough time. I will continue working on and having a love affair with me! I LOVE how I feel, I am STRONG! I am a little warrior! I AM ME!”
- Misti Miller, Florida
“It has been amazing to see the change happening to my body, both inside and outside! Thanks a million times over for creating such a great program, Karen. It was a great experience.”
- Jessica Weirmier, Saudi Arabia
"I HIGHLY recommend The 10 week Best Shape of Your Life Challenge. Karen has put together a program that is like no other...and trust me, I've tried every diet/fitness plan out there! She truly made me excited to check my email every Sunday night, which goes to show how Karen manages to make clean eating and working out both interesting and fun! If you simply do what Karen says, you will see results and feel great, both physically and mentally...and she will be there cheering for you throughout your journey. Thank you Karen! Though you are very true in saying that the 10 weeks "is not just about building the perfect bicep"... mine are looking pretty darn good after your challenge! :)"
