I have been working out with Renato since 2020, when COVID closed down all the gyms and training centers. I signed up for private lessons with him on zoom, and have continued to use his help since. He is excellent, has a great knowledge base and gives valuable suggestions. He helped me grow my strength, and focus on my weak areas. Since then he has also helped out my sister and mom who have different needs, but have greatly benefited from his guidance. He also great knowledge on supplements and nutrition and is a great guide for overall health improvement. I recommend him without any reservation!! read more

I started working with Renato since 2010, right after I had my cancer surgery. I was not a physically active person and knew very little about resistance training before I met Renato, and he completely changed my life. I work with Renato three times a week at Broadway steps, we do about one hour personal training each time, from weight lifting, stamina and muscle building, to stair hops and resistance running, my overall health improved significantly within a year or two. Renato also gave me good advise on my diet. He is professional, knowledgeable, and fun to work out with! read more

I started working out with Renato before my wedding and he totally changed my body and my love for working out!

His workouts are challenging and always changing which keeps things fresh. I highly recommend Renato if your looking for a fun but hard workout that will absolutely produce results. read more

Renato CARES! I have been working my butt off with him for a year now. 5 STARS for sure! He helped me prepare for my wedding last May. We had 6 months to get my tummy flat for my fitted dress and swimsuit for the ceremony in Belize. He asked a series of questions to help him understand what I was looking for (flat stomach and toned arms) , he recommended supplements I needed to take to keep my energy and the fat burning. He offered nutritional guidance to help me choose the best meal options for me and also built a unique and targeted program that I could also do at my gym on my own, Since I have been with him, at least one girl in my office a week asks me what I am doing to stay fit and what is his info. I have referred 7 girls already and each one of them really LOVE him! We meet at the Lyon St. stairs in the Marina on Saturday mornings and it's really an amazing view and great spot. We are challenged by a TRX type of suspension workout too that is tough on the abs but you'll love the BURN! There is no question, I would recommend him to any girl looking to look FAB on their wedding day or just after having a baby.

Renato is a highly skilled and educated trainer. He is not just some meathead trainer who got a certificate after studying for four weeks. He has a BA in physiology. Because of this he can give you a customized workout that is unique to you. I find him to be very professional and his prices are extremely reasonable. I lost weight using his services, but more importantly gained strength and confidence. He tranformed me from a couch potato into an athlete! I highly recommend him for any skill level. read more

Ditto to everything the reader wrote above! Renato is great! He always goes above and beyond and sincerely cares about your goals and getting results. He also has the best deals out there, especially if you buy a package of classes with a couple friends.

I'm addicted and keep signing up for more sessions! read more

I've been working out with Renato for a little over a year now. And I've seen AMAZING results. I was an athlete most of my life and got into running in my early 30s, but after moving to SF I lost motivation and couldn't get into a routine. And I hate going to the gym - I'd rather be outside. A friend introduced me to Renato's boot camp classes and I was immediately hooked. The workouts are intense, but fun and you gradually work up to more reps and harder activities. In just one year I've lost nearly 25 pounds, have re-focused my eating habits and feel better and stronger than ever. And I'm working out with friends, so the time goes by super quick. If you want to change your body, get stronger and be fit, do yourself a favor and check out Renato's classes. You won't regret it! read more

I've always been on a constant up and down with fitness - Trying classes, diets, running, gym memberships - you name it, I've probably done it.

From INTENSE (but fun - depending on how many stairs we're running) outdoor workouts around San Francisco to guidance in nutrition, supplements and overall health.
