Alejandro is as good as it gets, he is a grade A trainer with a ton of motivation and knowledge…read more When working-out with Alejandro, he focuses on my needs according to the goals I would like to reach. I mainly work with him for building more muscle and improve balance, every session with him is unique to what body part we are focusing on. I find that he takes what ever i express with to him into account but still making sure I am executing exercises safely to prevent injury. Alejandro is also really flexible with my schedule, we find time during some crazy weeks and with his two locations as well as out door meetings, there is always a place and a time for a convenient work out. He seems to really cater to what ever is easiest for me. He is a great trainer and I would suggest him to anyone!!

I had a chance to try a few sessions with Alex and was very impressed with his abilities and focus…read more I'm no gym rat, but I would like to get a feel for simple exercises I can do to stay fit and use proper physics. Alex was certainly competent and he kept a good eye on my posture and listened well. He's a young guy but when he worked with me I knew he was serious about his business. The gym is a bit crowded at times and not very "upscale," but it's well stocked and Alex gave me good introductions to exercises that really felt like I could do them at home and not hurt myself. I'd give him a rating of about 4 on the coaching as he still has a few rough spots that I know he'll grow into as he matures at this career. But I'm giving him a solid 5 because he does what few coaches seem to do- he really knows how to give an awesome massage. When I has head or neck pain, he laid me down on the table and worked me deep and I was blown away by his talent. I told him he should consider physical therapy or Chiropractic as a career, he really has great hands. So overall I think the package he offers is really beyond your typical "GO FER IT" meathead coaching. His hourly rate is beyond what I can currently handle, but I think anyone with the finances to try a session or two with him will appreciate his patience and ideas. And be damn sure to have a few muscle complaints ready so he puts you on the table, damn good massage!

We came to him with a unique request, but he's a master of finding solutions uniquely suited to your needs. He has all the right soft skills too: he's a great communicator, he's friendly, and he simply knows how to make the workout fun. We'd highly recommend him and would certainly work with him again!

Sebastian is an awesome instructor. I did quite a bit of looking around this time before choosing…read morea trainer and went to Sebastian because people said he's the best in the city. Hard to say not knowing every trainer in the city but I'd say it's probably true. I started out in 1-on-1 training sessions with Sebastian to get some of the basics down and then moved into group sessions which are both more economical and more fun, training with others. Sebastian has an awesome location in Noe valley where we exercise outdoors with views of the city and a killer set of steps on which to torture ourselves. I'm 2 days away from my first Olympic Triathlon which I don't think I'd be ready for without Sebastian. He helped me dig out from 10 years behind a computer screen and get back into shape in just a few months and I'm confident he'll help me reach my aggressive fitness goals over the next 6-12 months. Come work out with us, it's fun!

I've been working with Nico once per week for the past 6 months. In that time, combined with diet…read morechanges, I've dropped ~18 lbs and my muscle mass percentage has increased by 5 percentage points. I am noticeably stronger and leaner, and I'm feeling great. Nico does a good job of keeping things fresh, focusing on progress, and keeping me motivated. His location is also great -- it's on a hill, and he uses the hill, outdoor steps nearby, and his garage gym as part of his workouts. On top of that, he's a nice and friendly guy. I look forward to the workouts each week, and I definitely recommend working with him if you're looking to improve your fitness.

Nico takes a wholistic and individualized approach to help his clients and deeply cares about each individual he interacts with. While working with Nico, we focused on my posterior chain muscles and total body strength.

If you're considering a training you found your guy.

Trever's an awesome trainer, and has become a good friend. If you put in the time and effort with…read moreTrever, he'll get you results like no one else. I've worked with trainers for over a decade, in both LA and SF, one of whom is world-renowned -- no one has been as adept as Trever in customizing routines effectively to each client, or in seeing the best possible version of yourself within and helping to bring it out. Talk through your goals with Trever, commit to the time and the effort required to make those goals happen, and Trever will be with you every step of the way in making them a reality.

I feel like I've been really lucky finding a great trainer on my first shot. I've been working out…read morewith Trever for about 6 months, and I'm still shocked at how I look compared to just a few months ago. I've been lifting weights most of my adult life, and I've never been able to get the results like I've achieved since I started training with Trever. I lost about 35lbs in the first 2 months, then immediately started to build up muscle and gain solid weight in all the right places. Still, I continue to see pretty amazing results every week. So far, I can honestly say that it's been one of the greatest investments I've made in myself. What I originally planned for a 2 month program, has been extended infidelity due to the results I got within the first month alone. I cannot recommend Trever enough, it's definitely worth the time and investment.

After a few months of training with Daniel its no longer torture as I'm my best shape in years. Daniel works you hard but the results are well worth it. My energy levels are way higher now that I've been training with him for a few months. He did a great job of tailoring a problem that perfectly met my needs. If you're looking to do some intense training that sucks for 45 minutes but leaves you feeling great for the next few days, you should definitely contact him!

I worked out with Danny for well over a year and would definitely go back for more. HIs methods…read moreare far from conventional but very effective and there is no such thing as a predictable, run-of-the-mill, boring workout. He incorporates agility and endurance training in to every workout and definitely gets the blood pumping and the muscles loosened up and working to build and tone. In many respects, Danny makes working out seem like really healthy "play." But you definitely feel the effects afterwards in all aspects of life from overall health, attitude, appearance. Danny also prefers to workout in the outdoors when possible. I had mixed feelings about this. But thinking back, it is the best approach to exercise. I even felt at times like I was in boot camp doing pushups out there in the drizzle. I moaned about it, but now think back with pride for that hard work I did. Danny is a good coach, mentor and trainer in all aspects of fitness. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a novel approach to fitness training.

He was able to work with my availability and kept me accountable for my goals. As a trainer, he would cheer me on for just pushing myself a little more each time. I was able to gained more strength and have a healthier mindset after training a few months with him.

Since starting to train with Julian I've steadily gained muscle, moved further toward my goals, and pain isn't an issue. I appreciate that Julian takes the routine out of warm-up and workout, making a concerted effort to mix things up each time we meet. Important to me in finding a Trainer was someone who would pass the 'airport test'. I spend at least 3 hours a week with Julian - he's a smart and fun guy, passionate about what he does, thoughtful in his approach, and genuinely interested and invested in his clients. As a small business owner, Julian operates with high integrity. I highly-recommend Pushnweights to help you meet your health and fitness goals.

But once I met Dante, I instantly felt more comfortable being at the gym. Not only is Dante a great guy to get along with but he is an absolutely outstanding trainer. I have seen results faster compared to my self-workouts. Before I signed up with Dante, it took me about a month and a half to drop 10 pounds. But once I started working out with Dante, I went from 180 to 145 in just the first 3 months. His diet and workout plan will be hard at first but it will be all worth it once you see the results from his kickboxing classes. I only have Dante to thank for my fast results (of course you learn some kickass fighting skills but you also break a sweat and lose pounds faster than most workouts).
