Welcome to Tough Love training

Become the strongest version of yourself with the support of a caring and focused personal trainer.

Julie Hudak

I have been an ACE Certified Personal Trainer since 2018 and have been fortunate to work with over 50 clients in a transformative and empowering way. I am based in Dolores in Southwest Colorado.

My passion is to help clients build strength and confidence in their bodies, regardless of age, body type or attachment to physical appearance.

I specialize in women’s health, supporting clients going through perimenopause, menopause and post menopause.

My goal is to collaboratively help people find joy in movement while guiding them to achieve their unique fitness goals. 

My own favorite ways to move include long distance trail running, mountain biking, yoga, snowboarding and hiking with my dog and husband in the Colorado mountains.

I have completed numerous ultra-marathon distance trail running races (Elk Kings 50km, Sun Mountain 50km and Forest Park’s 30 mile Wildwood Trail, etc) and self guided running adventures including the Grand Canyon’s Rim to Rim to Rim trail and circumnavigating the bases of Mount Hood and Mount Saint Helen’s.

I’d love to help you become the strongest version of yourself.
