I am a 70 year old male and I never had a personal trainer in the past. I started working with Val in mid January after finding him on the internet. He has exceeded my expectations as a personal trainer. After about 8 weeks of training I feel more fit, stronger and healthier. I really enjoy my training sessions and highly recommend Val.

Brilliant PT. Would always think of new ways of doing exercises as I have arthritis in my back and not able to do the usual. Always with a smile too! 😊

Val is the best. I have hypermobility in my joints that have caused me a lot of issues with chronic joint dislocations over the years accompanied by lots of pain and inability to do basic things like walking without having my knee come out of place. I previously saw a physical therapist looking to strengthen those joints, but ended up with someone who didn't listen to me or my needs and would push me until the point of injury. After giving up on that route, I met Val, and he worked with me to create a plan that was safe but effective for my hyper mobility issues. Since starting his program, I have seen a huge difference in my daily comfort. I have not had a single dislocation since beginning his routine. The pain in my joints is virtually non-existent,  I've become stronger and more confident in the gym. My joints click less, and my posture is better. Val is an amazing motivator as well. He builds you up and recognizes your progress. He listens to you and makes you feel so comfortable. He is the most warm, welcoming, and friendly person. He goes above and beyond for his clients and creates an amazing support and friend group between all of them. I am so grateful to him for the way he has changed my life and made me a stronger person. I look forward to being able to do more physical activities that I used to enjoy, like hiking and climbing again in time as I keep improving under Val's guidance.

I have been training with Val for a few months now and Val is very professional and has a high level of expertise when it comes to training. I couldn’t be happier with the progress so far. Highly recommend Val!

Val is absolutely the best trainer! He is amazing at teaching and motivating you and our sessions have quickly become a major part of my weekly routine. I’m looking forward to reaching and beating my goals with him. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Thank you Val! Val is absolutely the best trainer!

Val is amazing at what he does, he has made my recovery very productive and informative.

I believe I was one of Val’s first clients. As a 50 year old woman, there are beautiful things about growing older, it truly is a gift; yet there’s a down side too—when I first met Val, I had gained 15 lbs, on thyroid medication, I was suffering from depression and lack of motivation, I actually didn’t really want a trainer but I needed one. I can not express the sincere gratitude that I have towards Val and how each time we met that he went above and beyond, to help me push through my depression, feel my physical strength again (actually I’ve gained more muscle and strength than I had in my 30’s). Through consistency, excellent coaching, patience, diet and exercise—(and laughter too)—I’m now full of confidence, I stand taller, stronger down to my bones! Val introduced me to different strength training techniques as well as diet tips, which isn’t so much a diet but rather a slight lifestyle change around food that helped balance my hormones, I was able to get off my thyroid medication and I have to brag a bit and say, I look and feel better than some half my age!!! It’s never too late and having worked with other trainers, I’ll say this:—this isn’t just a job to Val, he really truly cares, he gets so excited knowing the end result from day one!! His diverse knowledge of personal training, rehabilitation of injury, military background, compassion, individual precise workouts designed just for you, all make him an indispensable and trusted part of continued healing, growth both physically and mentally. I highly recommend him to anyone ready for a change, with a top coach at your side, guiding you each step of the way!! Just do it!!! I can promise you’ll be a better person for it, not just to look better but to feel a hundred times better, mind, body and soul!!! Always, always a thousand thank you’s to my amazing trainer!! 💪🏼

Val is fantastic. He not only knows what he is doing but he knows how to make working out not miserable. Val doesn't just want to get you to your goals but is excited to pass your goals. I told Val where I wanted to be, and how long I had to get there and from day one, he has been pumped to get me there. When I lost 10 lbs in a couple of weeks he was more excited than I was. He has stayed that way every step and every session I've had with him. I really can't thank Val enough.
