I couldn't wait to get to the gym most days. Damon made my workout experience fun! He utilized skilled techniques to get the most out of my muscles. The knowledge that he shared on how each muscle impacts and supports the opposite one allowed for a better understanding and appreciation of my target goal. His stretching techniques allowed mobiliity that I haven't had since I was a teenager. He was careful and considerate of my previous problematic areas (my back) and made sure to balance train to refrain from re-injuring it. Best of all, the In-home training option was TOP of the line. I got a complete workout without having to take a step outside. He used basic excerise tools, like a stretch band, jump rope, hand wheel and your own body resistance to put together a complete workout system that you would enjoy doing 3-4 times a week without getting bored. He's the real deal!

I am generally not a person that speaks in absolutes, but I can tell you that you will absolutely not find a better personal trainer than Damon Hawkins. Before Damon moved to Atlanta I trained with him for eleven years, two years in a gym and nine years in my apartment in NYC. During that time I progressed from being a fifty-two year old couch potato with a history of joining gyms and then never going, to being a sixty-three year old physically fit woman that loves to train and loves the way it feels to be fit. I thank Damon for that. Most of my workouts with Damon were in my apartment where I have no equipment other than an exercise ball. With just the equipment that Damon brought in his gym bag, he was able to create a complete workout. Every workout was different and, believe it or not, fun. Damon is also a fabulous motivator. Working with him, I pushed myself harder than I ever would have on my own. Damon is also an expert in body physiology and exercise. Working with him, I never had any fear that I would have an injury and I never did. When I trained with Damon in a gym, I saw him train people of all ages and saw that he was able to tailor his workout to suit the needs of every age and ability. Damon also has a wonderful personality. He is kind, thoughtful, funny and smart. I always enjoyed spending our workout time together. If you are thinking about hiring a personal trainer, you should call Damon right now! You will be very happy that you did.

I have been working with Damon for a couple of weeks now and we will have much more work to do due to my needs. Damon is a very thoughtful, experienced, empathetic and effective professional. In 1 hour he gives me a more effective workout than my 1.5 hrs of home based exercises I received from my physical therapist. He has the right mix of caution yet pushing your body as necessary. He even goes the extra mile to contact me later in the day or the next day to see how my body is reacting to the training. I have already felt improvement and have no doubts they will continue as we work together. I've had chronic pain since about 1998 and I've had 3 complex back surgeries. I've worked with many physical therapists but no personal trainers. Damon is one of the best, if not the best, physical improvement trainers I've worked with. I would absolutely highly recommend him.

I have been working with Damon for almost 4 months now, and he is the best personal trainer that I have ever worked with. He knows exactly what to do, and what not to do according my body's functionality. I've had some issues with my knees and thighs for over a decade now, and since I've been working with Damon I can walk stairs again comfortably. He is a considerate and thoughtful trainer. He checks on me to make sure that I'm functioning well after training. I've had therapists and personal trainers in the past who don't even act like they know what they were doing and not engaging at all. I had no idea what they would be doing and how to maintain after hour treatment. With Damon, you are fully aware of what is going on, and what is needed to keep up the physical state and well-being. This is my fourth package that we are on, and I will continue to work with Damon until I can no longer work with him anymore. I would give him 100 Stars if I could! I highly recommend!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I try to make becoming fit, whether it be physically or mentally, accessible to everyone. I may not be the cheapest but my service speaks for itself. If a client chooses to come to me I can give them a significant discount. I'm also a practitioner of Falun Gong, an ancient Chinese qigong practice which I proudly show to others free of charge.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Every potential client begins with a body assessment. I take note of the participants age, restrictions, and weaknesses. I then focus on their abilities by designing tests based on balance, flexibity, etc, all depending on the clients age and activity level.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Over the years I've accumulated multiple certifications, from AFAA to IFAA to the nation's most prestigious ACSM. In my later years I've focused more on post rehab and function training. I also have an associates degree in dietetics.
