Founded by Bennett Dahl, Answers Not Excuses is an excuse free system dedicated to anyone who wants to see results regardless of their current fitness level. I treat every client as an individual, and put together workouts according to where their body is at focused on getting them to their ultimate goal. We can prevent injuries, instead of cause them. You might want to lose weight for a class reunion, upcoming wedding, stop using certain medications, improve sleep, gain self-confidence, increase energy, reduce stress, improve quality of life, the list goes on and on. You could simply be looking for advice while you embark on your first workout ever, or trying to get to the next phase with your sports performance. It could be anyone of those reasons and everything in between; no goal is too small or too big.
There are certain things that need to be present in individuals to prevent injury and lay the groundwork to achieve and realize your ultimate goal. You need a strong foundation, my job is to put you into a position that will lead to your body/performance progressing in the way you always envisioned it. My training style is based on total body development, putting you through real-life situations that have you prepared for anything that comes your way. Your health is an investment; it’s where you spend your entire life. I WILL NOT, set you up to fail.
The 100lb Sandbag Shoulder is a great total body exercise that you can use for a number of different things. You wouldn’t think it’d be so much fun but it’s a blast. You can use a number of different weights to accomplish different goals; it definitely presents a unique challenge. No matter your personal goals, it can really enhance what you’re already doing.
Believe it or not…I am actually very picky when it comes to choosing a personal trainer. I cannot say enough about the positive experience and outcome I have achieved training with you as my personal trainer. The personal, down to earth, approach along with your professional support are the things that keep me motivated and [...]
I started training with Bennett two years ago when I realized that I needed to start an exercise routine besides just walking at lunch time. I found that after 50, I was not as flexible as I used to be and bending and getting up from a kneeling position was getting more difficult. I also [...]
The fitness progress I’ve made in the last three months have been amazing. My strength and endurance has increased dramatically, even in areas I didn’t think could be improved. Your training methods are challenging but not impossible and are focused on continual improvement.
Answers not excuses — absolutely correct!!!

Bennett was our trainer at LifeTime Fitness for close to a year. We have never been members of a fitness club before and probably wouldn’t have been as faithful to the program without having Bennett’s coaching. He worked closely with us and developed a program that suited both of our needs. Bennett’s knowledge of the human [...]
I observed what Bennett helped my son achieve and decided to give him a try. I am 50+ with muscles that had laid dormant for many years and a strong aversion to exercise. I love the planned workouts, they are never boring and Bennett tailors them to my level! When I started, we worked on my [...]
After initially losing 80 pounds on my own, I hit a weight loss plateau and decided that I needed to do something different if I wanted to break through to the next level. I started training with Bennett in June 2008 with weight loss as my primary goal. The workouts with him have been a [...]
When I started training with Bennett, I was in a “rut.” I had limited knowledge of what to do in the weight room, and really wasn’t challenged. Bennett was very knowledgeable and professional. His workouts were create and challenging. I stepped out of my comfort zone, and had fun doing it. Even better, looked forward [...]
