Wendy McDonald
EXERCISE SPECIALIST, OFFICE ADMINISTRATOR
Beyond her impressive 30+ years in office environments like banking and customer service, Wendy thrives in the world of Health and Wellness. Her passion for fitness is evident in her certifications: becoming an AFAA certified group exercise instructor in 1991 and a personal trainer in 2000. She further expanded her expertise with a national certification in assisted stretching as well becoming a certified Stretching and Flexibility Coach with National Academy of Sports Medicine.
Functional fitness is Wendy’s specialty. She believes her true strength lies not just in leading workouts, but in empowering her clients and class participants to understand the “why” and “how” behind each movement. Her ultimate goal? To instill confidence in their abilities.
When Wendy steps away from Vernon PT, where she manages the front desk and guides patients through exercises, she embraces an active life. You’ll find her spending quality time with her husband Joe and their two rescued dogs. An outdoor enthusiast, she enjoys exploring local trails in her jeep, even if a fourteener hasn’t been conquered yet. A dedicated reader and coffee lover, Wendy’s passion for encouragement extends beyond the gym. She’s also a welcoming member of her church’s greeter team.
