About
I have over 10 years of experience as a certified full-time Personal Trainer and business owner, helping men and women of all different fitness levels lose weight, build lean muscle, and improve their health. In 2014, I was voted Chicago’s “Best Personal Trainer” by Chicago Reader magazine, Best Of Chicago edition. I also enjoy writing about fitness and nutrition and have been published in a variety of media publications such as Muscle & Fitness, The PTDC (Personal Trainer Development Center), Bach Performance, and Voyage Chicago. Sessions with me are enjoyable, challenging, educational, and you'll probably be a little sore the next day :) Your program is completely tailored to your needs and goals, taking into account any restrictions or limitations you may have. I meet you where you are. Plus, your first session is on me, so you truly have nothing to lose except the weight!

I selected Brian Donovan as my coach because he holds two of the most advanced personal training certifications and has a great, low-key but encouraging, demeanor.During the time I have worked with Brian, I have reached and exceeded my weight loss, body fat, and flexibility goals. Every workout with him has been customized to my unique fitness goals and challenges. I was born with back problems and Brian is great about adapting the exercises for my specific needs. Ive been working with him for over two years and have never had an injury. In addition, Brian is great about keeping up with the latest fitness and nutrition news and studies and always shares helpful tips for me to incorporate into my daily routine.I highly recommend Brian for anyone seeking a trainer. Whatever your needs and goals, he will develop a program for you that WORKS, and youll have fun along the way because he has a great personality.

I love my Personal Trainer, Brian. I am VERY particular about Trainers. I always pick one by watching them work with their clients. I assess the results of their clients and their own personal results. A Trainer needs to look like a trainer. Brian is one of the best. He is not a chatter box. He is quietly effective and he means business. He focuses on your form, pushes you tirelessly, changes the workout constantly to confuse my body, and has helped me become more stable (I used to trip and fall all the time, weird, I know). My results have been the best testimonial. I have lost 30 pounds and 6 inches around the waist with Brian. My whole body has trimmed down. My whole goal was to have a more lean body, not buff or overly muscular. He tailors my workout for my needs. It is funny, because I get asked about my Trainer every few days. He truly is the best. I can't say enough things about him. I hired Brian 3 years ago. It's one of the best gifts I have given to myself. I go to him 3 times a week, which I recommend.

Over the last year and a half Ive trained with Brian on a regular basis. Brian loves fitness and knows how to make every workout different and challenging. He is constantly switching things up and keeping it interesting. Brian is very skilled and knowledgeable, but what I like about Brian is that he is also very down to earth and fun. This is why we have also clicked and become friends outside of our days of training. I HIGHLY recommend Brian for anyone looking for strong nutritional guidance, a great fitness program, and just a darn solid individual to train them! There was a reason he was VOTED BEST OF CHICAGO!

Started working out with Brian a few months ago with the goal of losing weight and toning instead of becoming bulky. Brian is a soft spoken but tough trainer which is what I like and needed. The workouts were varied and always were difficult and I was extremely tired afterwards. I've worked out for years but now I realize that my workouts are nothing compared to what he provides. Working out different muscles each time helped me lose weight. I purchased 24 sessions and used them over a 3 month period, working out with my lighter workouts on my own. I ended up going from 200lbs to 185lbs in that time period. I am very happy overall and my workouts now are harder than they used to be because of my experience with Brian so my weight is relatively stable now.
