CLIENT SUCCESS STORIES
“Ashling is an awesome personal trainer! She listened to my goals and injury history and has designed perfect workouts for me. I feel better after only 4 sessions and look forward to more.”
– SUE KIM
Ashling Perham
Owner + Personal Trainer
Years of experience: 8
Credentials: ACE, CPR/AED
Ashling was raised in Chelmsford and continues to reside there. She has owned and operated Zone Fitness Chelmsford since 2013, initially as a client before transitioning into the fitness industry. With a long history in coaching, Ashling was also a dedicated figure skater and skating coach for most of her life. Her skating background and love for fitness bring a unique approach to her training style.
Ashling believes that hard work and proper nutrition are key to achieving results, but she also views fitness as a journey, not a destination. She focuses on teaching and promoting sustainable lifestyle changes that can be maintained over time. Her philosophy emphasizes the equal importance of strength training, metabolic conditioning, and cardiovascular endurance, all while recognizing that long-term success comes from small, consistent changes rather than quick fixes. The most rewarding aspect of her job is witnessing each client’s hard work pay off as they incorporate fitness into their daily routines, transforming their lifestyles for the better.
Her favorite exercise is push-ups. Ashling loves them! Don’t worry; she has a great way of teaching them so anyone can do them.
Ashling enjoys playing ball with Winni, the studio mascot, in her free time. She also loves golfing, summertime in Maine, gardening, and playing with her nephew and niece.
