Client Success Stories
Helping clients achieve their fitness and strength goals is the most rewarding part of my work. Each person brings unique challenges and aspirations, and it’s been my privilege to guide them toward lasting results. Whether building confidence, regaining strength after an injury, breaking through strength plateaus, or achieving lifelong fitness goals, I offer personalized, tailored support for every journey. Here’s what some of my clients have to say about their experiences:
Chris has been instrumental in helping me regain control of my fitness, lose 20 pounds of fat, and gain 10 pounds of muscle! As a 54-year-old woman, I lost a significant amount of strength and mobility during COVID. I never really loved lifting weights, even though I knew it was important at my age. Working with Chris, I’ve seen dramatic improvements in my body composition, gained surprising strength that’s made a huge difference in daily life, and built the confidence to return to long-distance running. Chris is focused, kind, and encouraging, but he also tells it like it is. His emphasis on consistency and practical changes—like adding more protein and structuring my meals—helped me lose weight more effectively. Two years in, I’ve avoided injury, stayed consistent, and continue to grow stronger every day. Thank you, Chris!

Working with Chris has been a transformative experience. As a former Division 1 soccer player, I started training with Chris while recovering from Achilles tendon surgery. I needed a trainer who could address my performance gaps and push me with challenging workouts to help me regain confidence on the field. Chris listened to my needs and created a program that focused on what mattered most. I had high expectations, and Chris exceeded them. He continually refined my program, leading to increased explosiveness, better single-leg strength, and improved stability. This gave me the confidence I needed to return to the field and compete in the San Francisco Soccer League. I highly recommend Chris to any athlete looking for a trainer who truly customizes their approach and works closely with them to achieve their goals.

Chris is an amazing personal trainer, and I feel so grateful to have worked with him. I came to him after two lower back surgeries, having lost muscle and mobility from being sedentary during my recovery. My pain had left me living a very limited life. From the start, Chris was kind and reassuring, helping me feel confident that I could regain my strength and return to a more active life. He carefully paced my program, gradually increasing movement and weight in a way that felt safe and manageable. This not only helped me rebuild my strength but also gave me the confidence to overcome my fear of re-injury. When I experienced minor setbacks or discomfort, Chris would thoughtfully adjust my workouts and provide customized off-day mobility exercises I could do at home to support my recovery. He was always communicative, responsive, and fully present during our sessions. I couldn’t recommend him enough!
