I can't thank the staff at LSL enough for that. Leo, Lina and Bree provide guidance on both exercise and nutrition, which has been super helpful in reaching my fitness goals. With their app, I can track my progress with measurable results, which they use to structure a plan tailored to me. They are mindful of injuries I've had in the past too, so depending on how my body is feeling that day, they'll modify my workouts to keep it challenging but safe for me. The gym is never crowded, so I'm never waiting around to get my reps in. The environment is also very welcoming too. It's been nice getting to know the familiar faces since coming here. I definitely recommend LSL, so much in fact that my mom has joined me in working out here as well. Big thanks to the LSL staff!

Before I started training with Roger, I was a beginner with minimal experience. Previously, the…read moreonly working out I did was cardio, and didn't appreciate or understand the importance of weights and core exercises. Therefore, my frustration was that I would do a lot of cardio, such as spinning classes, but I wouldn't see any difference in my body. Training with Roger taught me the importance of balance in a workout routine. This included cardio but pairing it up with weights and core exercises to round out my workout routine. Lack of confidence was a big issue with me where I was worried that I would be judged because I didn't know how to work out correctly. Roger is a great trainer in that he was able to show me how to improve my posture when working out without feeling like I am being judged. Roger's personality is personable, patient, and easy going. He is a professional and it is evident that he has mastered his craft and enjoys training his clients. He does a great job in pushing clients to achieve more in each session but also knows when to pull back by remaining engaged on how the client feels on the day. In the event someone is debating whether or not to work with him, I would encourage them to sign up with Roger. I would explain my hesitation in the beginning, where I was worried whether I would be judged or if I would even learn the routines to see results. Personally, those fears were put to rest from the first session, and I have certainly learned a lot about working out, gained confidence, and have seen the results.

That being said, I knew that with my busy schedule and a father of three, I needed someone that I can trust during my 1-on-1 training, while getting me in better health. What I look for is someone who can go toe to toe with my knowledge so I can feel safe. Someone that is walking the walk as I believe this is crucial. Here comes Eric Doyle. I highly endorse unconventional training as life is chaotic and non-linear. It's design to push, pull, tug at you in many different ways, and challenge your stability. If you do not have this, your body will take it from your mobility! Kettlebell, steelmaces and clubs are what I use in my practices to get the job done. Thanks Eric for making me work hard and sweat!

My husband and I decided to check out LBKC for the first time back in January of this year. We had…read moreread really good things about it and saw that they were having an open house so we went to check it out, and man am I glad we did! As soon as we walked into the gym we were treated like one of the family. Like old friends that hadn't seen each other in a while. Coach Eric and Coach Lauren are top notch trainers and very good at what they do, and not to mention two of the most amazing people you could ever meet. Not only have their classes made me lose fat and gain lean mass, but after the first two months of being there I was so much stronger and confident that I decided to do a kettlebell competition for the first time and was awarded 2nd place! Amazing results! My strength is ridiculous just after the eight months I have been training here. As for the gym (located on the second floor) it is clean, organized, and very impressive to say the least. Everything is top notch. Coach Eric doesn't skimp on equipment or on training. He's one of the best and so is his gym, and every once in awhile he brings his classes to the beach. Such a great time! I'm totally recommending LBKC to anyone who wants to change it up from the same old workout routine. You won't be sorry. It will be one of the best investments you'll ever make.

An interview with Jon Celis…read more.. What made you decide to begin working with kettles? Back in 2004, while I was bodybuilding on my own--I'd already placed 1st and 2nd in two competitions--I had watched as a trainer was using kettlebells. Although I hadn't fully plateaued using methods more traditional, I had become somewhat bored, and what I'd seen this particular trainer doing had really made me curious. So I gave them a try. And once I did, I was hooked! Kettles were certainly more fun and more interesting; but it wasn't just that: in terms of movement, they were more dynamic, more challenging. An all-in-one workout, not only for strength training, but for cardio and flexibility as well. ****** ****** ****** ****** Was using kettlebells with your clients an easy transition from the tradition forms of strength training and conditioning? As a trainer, I eventually--and later, exclusively--began using kettles with my clients, both for individual trainings and for classes. In 2009, I became RKC certified, the most prestigious of kettlebell certifications. I'd begun to really experiment with new kettlebell movements, learning different techniques and exercises and making necessary modifications, so that my clients' individual needs could also be satisfied with such workouts. There is just so much you can do with them: from goblet squats and swings, to snatches, cleans, and presses. There's just so much variety! ****** ****** ****** ****** What made you decide to begin weight training? For my birthday one year--I was a freshman at the time--I had asked for a gym membership. So I began training on my own. I had no trainer. I just copied what I'd read in magazines and from observing others working out. I became more determined, pushed myself. In fact, it was a high school competition that had originally inspired me. It was called "Mr. Masculine." Anyway, there were mostly senior athletes and jocks who competed, up on the stage, flexing. Even though I was only a freshman, I entered. I ended up being the only freshman on stage, the only one, surrounded by upper classmen. And it took awhile, you know. I had a lot of catching up to do, but by my junior year, I won! My gym membership began paying off. But, like I had said before, once I met my goals, I became bored, less and less determined. I soon separated myself from bodybuilding. It wasn't until my early college years that I began again, and I have continued ever since. ****** ****** ****** ****** So what's next? I'm continuing to learn and expand my kettle bell training, attending more workshops and adding additional certs: RKC Level 2, Strong First Level 1-2. During which, I am also finishing my Masters in Holistic Nutrition as Absolutraining plans to evolve into a complete Health and Fitness Program. Kettlebell training will focus on physical performance, strength, power, speed, cardiovascular endurance; and Nutrition will promote health longevity and cognitive performance. The goal is to evolve into a complete system.

I prefer Naples fitness over other gyms because of the one-on-one attention that is given along with a clean and professional gym. David does a great job listening to his clients in what outcome they are looking for then works together with you to achieve that. I appreciate how knowledgeable David is about the human body and how he adjusts workouts based on my needs and abilities. He also creates and designs a work out program specifically to me. I can discuss diet and stretches that help me on my own time. When injured David takes the time to focus on the issue with stretches, mobility and muscle massages. Overall there's nothing bad I can say about Naples Fitness and I'm thankful I have a gym like this to go to.

Naples Fitness is so awesome that I lost a pound just walking in the door. Seriously, they're THAT…read moregood. ;) To be fair and give an honest assessment, I must share that I do know the owner Dave, but that does not mean my review is slanted as a result. I have had personal training before, both in a gym and independently. The NF studio rates top notch in my book. The clean and spacious environment affords great equipment and a welcoming atmosphere. Want to watch TV? Done. Want good music to pump iron too? Done. Need a locker for your valuables? Done. And how about the nicest bathroom I've ever seen in a fitness studio? Done, yet again. Dave is a great person and fantastic personal trainer. He is super friendly and wants to tune into you completely for the best workout. Dave is there to motivate you, ignore your excuses, get you pumped and make sure you do it all effectively and safely. While I don't know the other trainers individually, when I met them at the Seal Beach 5/10k, they were all super friendly and highly supportive of all the event participants running on behalf of Naples Fitness. A core reason I like NF is their involvement and support for community events while also supporting health and fitness. Whether it's in getting a group to do a community run, take donations for the Ronald McDonald house, or give away free beach boot camp classes in exchange for food, NF and their staff are never too busy to do great things on a local level. I love my city, and so does Naples Fitness. So, what you really want to know about is the workout, right? Each exercise and workout is tailored specifically to you, your ability, your initial fitness level and your goals. The workouts structured for me have been great, some familiar to me and some new, and completely doable both in and outside the fitness studio. The hardest, and while I hesitate to admit it, but also the best part of the time I worked with Dave was when he worked on my hamstrings and tight muscles. I've never had that done for me, and while it totally caused me to cringe, wince, cry and maybe curse a little, it was the best part of my workout and long over due. I just might sign up for that torture alone. Ultimately, it isn't my review that's going to get you to get off the couch and sign up. It's going to be your choice, and when you're ready, choose Naples Fitness.
