To boost my self-confidence, improve my appearance and reap the health benefits, I sought out the guidance of Chris, who I hired as my gym instructor. His role was to ease me into workout routines and teach appropriate techniques for strength training. After just nine sessions, I was thrilled with the outcome. Not only had he coached me, but he also showed me how to think about which muscles were being targeted. Such an approach enabled me to adapt the regime for different gym settings, interests, and progress levels seamlessly, without his guidance. Additionally, Chris coached me in a friendly, flexible, and non-judgmental manner, which made me feel comfortable working out with him. He was entirely focused on helping me achieve my objectives within a limited timeframe. If you are new to strength training and are self-conscious about it, I strongly recommend giving Chris a chance.

After working with Chris for a considerable period of time, my objectives took a complete turn and I'm immensely gratified with the outcomes. Initially, I was a slender runner, but with Chris's guidance and support, I developed my strength and muscles to the extent where I could accomplish a squat surpassing my body weight and even my first pull-up, and currently, I'm able to accomplish three of them! Following a pause, I resumed my running routine, and for the preparation of the half marathon, Chris was my ultimate savior. With his guidance, I slashed my previous record and managed a personal best by almost 12 minutes. Amidst this, his sense of humor, constant support, and excellent teaching skills never failed to impress me. I've already recommended Chris to many of my acquaintances, and I strongly commend him to you too!

For the past two years, I have collaborated with Chris both in-person and via his monthly workout programs that he creates for me to perform independently. Chris' training style is thoughtful, always keeping my desired outcomes in mind and paying close attention to areas that require improvement, while frequently changing routines to maintain a fresh and engaging workout. He values my feedback and is responsive to my requests for modifications when necessary. Notably, Chris possesses a tremendous amount of expertise in exercise science. He provides insightful explanations for why certain movements and techniques are necessary, and I have learned a lot from him. As a fitness trainer, he is supportive, motivating, flexible, highly professional, and approachable. He is an empathetic person that is easy to communicate and collaborate with. Under his training, I have witnessed tangible improvements in my strength, cardio endurance, and confidence and knowledge in the gym.

Chris is an exceptional personal trainer whom I highly recommend! I've been training with him for nearly two years and have consistently reaped the benefits of our sessions. Chris is an extremely supportive trainer during our workouts while still being a great conversationalist between sets. Additionally, he's an effective communicator and demonstrated flexibility in accommodating any necessary rescheduling, no matter how last minute. What stands out most to me is Chris' ability to train individuals of varying ages and skill levels. My own parents, who are both in their sixties and seventies, have had great success working with him as well. I wholeheartedly encourage anyone looking to improve their fitness to consider training with Chris. You won't regret it!
