Meet Coach Heather

Hi, I’m Heather McCarthy! You can call me Coach!
I actually started on my journey to where I am now by getting my Masters in Clinical Psychology. Thus, the “MINDSET” piece of my training is really important to me, for my clients.
Currently, I am an ACE Certified Personal Trainer, Nutrition Coach, Functional and Pain-Free Movement Specialist, and Pre-Natal/Post-Natal Specialist. I help women all over the world, of all ages, from all walks of life to SHED WEIGHT, BUILD MUSCLE, and GAIN CONFIDENCE.
Since completing my Masters and Coaching certifications, I have worked in Group Fitness for nearly 10 years, mainly focused on resistance training programming, but I love cardio too!
In fact, I fell in love with running some years ago. Fun fact: The first race I ever ran was the Chicago Marathon! After having three daughters (by 3 cesareans), I began running and then competing, and I realized I was quite fast! (New parent stress really gets your feet moving, LOL!)
I am part owner of a personal training gym, SET Fitness, located in Western Springs, IL, and I’m also a Lulu Lemon Ambassador.
During the 2020 pandemic, I pivoted my business toward online program offerings, and I started coaching both for nutrition and resistance training through specific programming. Now, I have modified and curated my program into what it is today and successfully helped people with their health & fitness goals.
Hear What Clients Are Saying…

I started following Heather McCarthy shortly after moving out to Western Springs from the city. After a few years, we became close friends. When the opportunity came to participate in a few fitness / nutrition challenges I of course jumped on it! While I generally consider myself a pretty clean eater, there is always room to improve and learn as the science is ever changing. Heather’s nutrition is solid. It focuses on fueling your body with REAL food, getting your H2O in, protein and best of all it allows wiggle room for the occasional glass of wine.
All that aside, perhaps one of my favorite things about Heather is the sense of community she just naturally and instantly creates. She motivates you to want to do better and to want to be accountable. I promise you won’t be disappointed if you hire her for nutrition, strength training or both!
