"Alex has been my trainer for 3 years. He is one of the most knowledgeable, dependable and professional trainers I have ever come across. I have lower back problems and he has built special work-out routines that have been very beneficial for me. He makes each work-out session challenging and, dare I say it, fun!"

"Alex is a wonderful trainer. What sets him apart from other trainers is that he is always punctual, respectful and upbeat. As well as being very knowledgeable about fitness, I get the feeling that he actually cares about my fitness goals He worked with me when I was injured and knew as much about the best healing and strengthening techniques as my physical therapists.

Working out with Alex is fun, even when it's painful. He pushes me when I need it, makes sure I use correct posture and don't over do it. I recommend using Alex as your personal trainer if you are interested in having a serious workout with an educated and passionate trainer who loves helping people meet their personal health goals."

"Alex trained me for two muscle-growing years. He took my six-foot frame of 165 pounds, skinny arms and a bit of a stomach to 190 pounds with chest, shoulder, arm, leg, and stomach definition. Everyone, and I mean everyone, has noticed. Alex worked his magic by continually directing me to 1) the correct form in weight-lifting and 2) modifying my diet toward the good stuff. He doesn't nag. He invites. I recommend him and his services to those who want to hang out with a good guy who knows what he's doing."

"We all have something we want to achieve from personal training, mine was weight loss and more importantly weight management. Alex helped me look at the food choices I was making and how those impacted what I wanted to achieve. Exercise and Calories is what I needed to focus on, and the calories part was something I personally needed a lot of help on. With Alex's personal training I not only get guidance on the exercises in the gym, but also the guidance outside of the gym as Alex's looks at the entire picture, not just when you meet with him 2-3 times a week. I now know the right balance of foods that I should be eating and with that help I am able to set short term goals that will lead to my ultimate goal.

I have seen many personal trainers in my struggle, however I have stayed with Alex the longest because he really CARES about you and wants you to achieve what you have set out to do, and that care goes a long way."

"Alex is a fantastic personal trainer. He really takes the time to understand your fitness goals and crafts a training regimen to help you achieve those goals. He adds lots of variety to your workouts so you don't get bored doing the same exercises every time. He also makes so much fun that you will look forward to working out, rather than dreading it. You are in very capable hands with Alex!"

Jason Atwater

“In the few months that I've worked out with Alex, I got great results and a much better understanding of how to use my time in the gym more effectively. I have recommended Alex to friends who have had similar results. It's been fun and I love looking & feeling better. Thanks!"

Peter Melendy

"Alex has been my personal trainer for over a year now. Alex understands how to train and motivate his clients for results, while ensuring that control and posture are always maintained to prevent injury. This focus on safety is most important for me given my demanding work and travel schedule. Alex is passionate about the overall well-being of his clients and I highly recommend him to you. I look forward to my regular workouts and I am very pleased with the results."

Adrian Coppini

"Training with Alex is a highly motivating experience; not in an unpleasant, suck it up kind of way but rather in a I know you, I'm going to help you, lets do this together kind of way. Alex never lets me off the hook when I'm training but he also doesn't make me feel bad about what I haven't been able to do, rather he focuses on what I can achieve in the very limited time that I have. Alex is thoroughly knowledgeable about training and has transferred much of that knowledge to me in our sessions: now, when I walk into a gym, I feel prepared and ready to work out in the most efficient and safest way possible, in a way that gets results. In some ways, although he pushes me very hard, Alex has become a friend as well as a trainer."

Drew Grimshaw

"I've been working with Alex for the last year or so... and what a difference it's made! I've lost weight, built muscle in my arms, legs, thighs and chest and completely reshaped my body. I've also seen a huge difference in my stamina and endurance.

I love working with Alex because of his positive energy. He has the ability to motivate without alienating - and to make me really enjoy my workouts. I would (and have!) recommend Alex to anyone who is seriously considering working with a personal trainer. He will kick your butt... and you'll LOVE it!"

Cody Elkin

"Training with Alex is a great experience--he's extremely knowledgeable, personable, and insightful into his clients' needs. He pushes you to exactly where you need to go, while making training sessions interesting, fun, and varied. He's clearly the best personal trainer with whom I've ever worked!”

Bill Marks

"I’ve been training with Alex for the past two years. For various reasons, I just had the opportunity to work with other trainers. I just called Alex to see if he still has room for me in his hectic training schedule! What I like about Alex vs. my experience with other trainers is that:

• Alex pushes me to be my best and maximize my potential. I know I’ve worked out after a session with Alex. I didn’t feel the same with other trainers. For me, this is one of the main reasons I need a trainer. I don’t know about you, but my tendency is to quit too soon and not push myself to do those last couple of reps. Alex always motivates me to do those last couple of reps!

• Alex creates varied programs to ensure I don’t fall into the ‘muscle memory’ syndrome where I’m not getting benefit from my workouts. He puts the thought, time and energy into creating the best program for me to meet my goals. I like the fact that I never know what Alex is going to throw in my direction on a given day, making my sessions not only a great work out but also fun!

• My programs with Alex usually consisted of doing exercises in combination to maximize my time with him and ensure that I got a great full body workout, respecting the fact that I have a busy schedule and don’t have the time to spend hours at the gym. Alex has helped me to work out more intelligently.

• Speaking of schedules, I have a job that requires quite a bit of travel. Alex is always flexible with working around my travel/work schedule. With other trainers, I felt the focus was more on me fitting into their schedules. Training wasn’t their full focus.

• Alex helped me improve my diet. He is a realist in this area and knows my philosophy is that life is too short to just eat tofu and skinless chicken every day! I’ve still been able to increase my lean muscle mass and get rid of the ‘belly’ I had when I first met Alex without sacrificing all of the comfort foods.

• Alex always ensures we get through the entire workout planned for that day in the time allotted. We still have time to talk about health and fitness as well as current events without sacrificing part of the workout.

• Lastly, and most importantly, I’ve achieved results with Alex! My goal is to be lean and trim. I’m in the best shape of my life and have had my family and friends all notice and comment the same. I couldn’t have done it without Alex!"
