Andrea Markovic Personal Fitness
Understanding Your Journey
At Andrea Markovic Personal Fitness, I specialize in helping busy people achieve their fitness goals. I also understand the unique challenges that come with aging—whether it’s the impact of perimenopause and menopause in women, or simply dealing with the everyday aches and pains that come with time. I also get how hard it can be for busy people to prioritize self-care, but I believe it’s essential for your mental health, energy, and overall well-being.
My Fitness Journey
When I was younger, I worked out to look good. I was a cardio queen, running marathons and wondering why I wasn’t losing weight. But through my personal journey, I’ve learned that exercise is about so much more than just looking good. It’s essential for our brain health, body health, and longevity. Life will throw curveballs, but staying active helps us adapt. While aches and pains are part of aging, regular exercise can alleviate many of them and keep us feeling our best.
My love for fitness began as a kid running with my Dad, and it’s grown from there. As a young adult, I ran seven marathons, qualifying for the Boston Marathon three times and completing it once. This passion led me to pursue a career in personal training, where I became certified in 2006.
I started my career in Chicago, working at top clubs like Lincoln Park Athletic Club and Evanston Athletic Club, while also training in-home clients. After moving to Colorado, I continued to train clients at a well-known club and expanded my expertise by becoming a certified fitness instructor. I taught Bodypump, Pilates, kettlebell group classes, and bootcamps.
Through my long career, I’ve gained valuable skills and experiences that I bring into every session. What sets me apart is not only my years of training but also my genuine love for fitness and passion for helping people achieve their goals.

What You Get With Training
Everyone is unique and their fitness plan design should be unique as well.
A comprehensive fitness program with Andrea begins with a complete review of client’s current fitness level, lifestyle, motivational commitment and nutritional habits. A postural assessment is also conducted.
Body circumference measurements, body fat analysis, body mass index and weight are measured to build a base for monitoring improvement. From there, a basic resting metabolic rate can be calculated and nutritional guidance can be given.
Resting heart rate, strength, and flexibility assessments are taken and
fitness goals established.
As a client reaches goals, new goals are set, and program design modified to keep things fun, avoiding body plateau and boredom.

What People Say About Andrea
“When I decided to invest in a personal trainer, it was with the overall goal of improving my health. I had always been a regular exerciser, but I wanted to challenge myself and take it to the next level. I couldn’t have imagined that I would not only reach my goal, but also achieve much more. Andrea Colvin has helped me to transform my body completely and has given me a new perspective on what I am physically capable of. Whenever I train with Andrea, I know that I will receive a workout that is much more complete and physically challenging than when I workout alone. Not only can I rely on her to push me past my comfort zone, but also I know that I am doing each and every exercise correctly. For me, the results I have achieved are priceless.”
Alison Stewart
“I have trained with Andrea for the last two plus years. Andrea understood my busy schedule and built a training program and met me for times to train that worked for my schedule. She was very motivational and kept the pace of the workouts always moving quickly. At the end of the day, the days I met with Andrea I felt better and more focused by through the balance of exercise, training and general day to day activities. “
Cass Baker
“I’ve worked with a lot of personal trainers, including several from East Bank Club. Andrea is by far the best trainer I’ve ever worked with. She always changes up the routines so the workouts are different, and always challenging! After doing Pilates, yoga and cardio for years, adding two workouts a week with Andrea has definitely made me stronger and leaner. And I finally lost the extra pounds and body fat!”
Jenna Shields
“I started working with Andrea more than a year ago after working with two other trainers. Although I thought I was in great shape when I started with Andrea, she helped me to achieve even more. Andrea takes a holistic approach to training. She has helped me to improve in every area — strength, endurance, nutrition, and state of mind (stress). With Andrea’s help, I ran my best time in the Chicago marathon — and actually enjoyed every step. Andrea tailors each workout to my needs, and she has helped me to make fitness more than a goal.”
Amanda Read
“I have worked with Andrea at various intervals over the years and keep going back to her because she makes the workouts interesting, keep’s me motivated and focused on my goals. I’m the Queen of Excuses for not exercising but she always got me back on track and was an email away when I needed a feel-good moment and wanted to review my progress for the millionth time, or if I had a question. She was also able to modify our workouts whenever I had an injury and took time to ensure I stretched properly to prevent any others occurring. Most of all, she was punctual and adhered to the schedule which was greatly appreciated as a working mom. Would definitely recommend Andrea if you are looking for help getting yourself into better shape from knocking off a few pounds of baby weight to considering running the Chicago marathon – she has the expert knowledge and patience to train you to achieve your goal.”
Lindsay Wilson
“I have been training with Andrea just over a year now. I started out investing in a personal trainer to improve my overall health and get my body back into shape. Shortly after starting our sessions, I learned I was pregnant with my third child. I continued to train with Andrea up until a month of my delivery. Andrea was extremely knowledgeable in prenatal training. As a result of working with Andrea, I felt so much better during the pregnancy. As well, my delivery was a much better experience. My muscles were stronger and my recovery was much easier and less painful. I truly attribute it to working with Andrea during my pregnancy. I would highly recommend prenatal training with Andrea.
I have now resumed my sessions – post pregnancy – with Andrea and look forward to reaching my goals. Andrea is motivational and pushes me while still carefully making sure I am completing each exercise task correctly. Andrea is always providing helpful personal exercise tips to perform in between our sessions. I look forward to continue working with her and obtaining my fitness goals!”
