Introduction: Hello! My name is Ian Krivoshein and am the proud owner of IK Fitness personal training, rehabilitation, and massage therapy. Thank you for your consideration! From an early age I experienced the life altering effects of bullying, isolation due to my obesity and non-athleticism, and injuries from numerous accidents. Learning to be happy in one's own skin is elemental - however my motivation in my style of training and massage therapy comes from a passion and love for the amazing science and resilience of the human body!  12 years ago I began this company after graduating with a degree in Anatomy & Physiology, Exercise Science, and minor in Nutrition. I am ACSM, NASM, and ACE certified and fully insured both for in-studio training at my facility in Pompton Plains and Riverdale, New Jersey and in home appointments. Likewise, am Swedish Institute certified for massage modalities and am an Easter Seals member - privileged in training special needs patients. Many of my personal training clients utilize my massage services providing a well rounded approach to fitness, flexibility, relaxation, and overall well being. Such clients include post physical therapy patients to children looking to improve their agility in sports. I enjoy bridging circuit training with balance, coordination, mixed martial arts, and muscle confusion techniques. Similary am well versed in crossfit exercises, bodybuilding, and most modern approaches to weightloss, athletic conditioning, & attention that special needs and autistic patients require. All of my training packages include a nutritional evaluation and stretching protocol. I pour this same passion into my massage therapies and include essential oil infusion in all my organic oils and lotions. There is an ingrained and undying love for the work that I do and am excited to be part of your transformation. I look forward to hearing from you!  ~ Best of health My successes in personal training, nutritional guidance, and massage therapy stems from healthy and honest communication between myself and my clients. Seeing results is crucial, but at the same time having fun and learning something in the process is a must! I hope to pass this along to all I see whether in the gym, on the scale, or on my massage table. An autistic child can ask for a selfie with me after her kick-ass workout, a client can now fit into a stunning dress for a special event, or I get an email from an executive who shot par at his last golf outting feeling minimal to no pain in the shoulder he had operated on and my week has been made! Job well done!

I was experiencing pain due to fibromyalgia. Although I am experienced with massages, I am always a little hesitant about new people doing them because of a prior back surgery and health history including the fibromyalgia. Ian listened to everything I had to say, explained everything he planned on doing during my session. The massage went well Ian communicated appropriately and I felt good, relaxed, and comfortable. Which says a lot...I have a really hard time trusting people. My experience was a positive one and Ian encouraged me to see him again as he had areas of concern that he spoke to me about. After my session he let me know what was going on with my body, and gave some stretching to support it. I will be seeing Ian again in the near future!

Ian goes above and beyond for his clients. His knowledge about nutrition, exercise routines and your overall health will make you feel comfortable and safe. I would recommended Ian for any age group or skill level. Ian not only is a great trainer but is a great friend.

Motivational! Very well educated! Relatable and never intimidating...Just the right amount of push! Seeing Ian 6weeks now 2-3x a week both at my house and his gym & couldn't be happier with my decision. Lower back pain has eased and he works well with my hectic schedule. His studio is modern, clean, and offers every tool someone would need. Home workouts are tough but start my day on the right foot. My wife is an avid tennis player and has struggled with hip and ankle pain for months. She started seeing Ian for deep tissue and neuromuscular massages weekly - and they have helped tremendously.
