About
Hi, my name is Cecil (pronounced SESS-ul) and I’m a personal trainer in Fontana with over 10 years fitness industry experience. My focus is helping my clients reach their fitness goals in a practical way that makes sense for their lifestyle. And I pride myself on professionalism, quality training and results.
There’s no one size fits all approach to changing your body and your habits, but together, we plan what’s realistic for your current life circumstances and your goals. What makes me happy and motivated is seeing clients do better than they did before, both in fitness and their daily lives. My clients vary from doctors, nurses, business owners, and managers to students, warehouse line staff and private security. I encounter and help people from all walks of life with very different needs and schedules. Client goals range from aesthetic changes and performance goals to medical concerns that requires fitness as a conduit for better health. I can absolutely help.
In terms of my prices, they range from $65-$85 per session depending on which program package you choose. Your program includes 1:1 in person sessions with me, nutrition guidance, solo workouts and progress check-ins. I also offer a variety of different training options too including virtual (video) training, online and group training options for flexibility. Feel free to reach out to me to inquire about a FREE/COMPLIMENTARY consultation where we will talk about your goals in depth as I put you through a workout to give you an example of what training with me is like.
Ultimately, my job is to teach you how to be successful in the short and long term. So if you’re willing to learn, be motivated and held accountable with lots of laughs along the way, let’s get the results you want. Thank you for considering me as your coach.

It’s been about two weeks since I started training with Cecil, and I’ve lost 4 pounds. I didn’t know what I was walking into; I was anxious, but Cecil made me feel comfortable and welcomed. Not only does he provide an excellent program tailored to your body, but he's also mindful of any injuries or sensitivities. I tell him this every time, and I’ll tell you, he does not play around. He strives to help his clients meet their goals! He'll push you to the point where you want to quit, but he's supportive and there with you the whole time. Yes, the workouts should be tough; yes, they aren’t easy, but Cecil shows grace, patience, and motivation!!! I would absolutely recommend booking a consultation; he’s very good at planning and structuring the perfect program for you.

I am pleased to write this review and my experience soo far with Cecil. I have worked with trainers in the past so I knew what I wanted in a trainer. I needed the connection, I needed for this person to be knowledgeable, passionate about my goals and help me reach them. To hold me accountable and keep pushing me forward. He is consistently upgrading and redesigning my personal program to keep my progress moving. Cecil doesn’t stop communicating when I leave the gym, he’s checking up on me that I’m on top of it with the cardio and diet plan he set for me. As well as encouragement with any issues that may come up. I recommend him to anyone who is serious about making a change in their lives because Cecil will help you reach your your goals. Gracias Cecil

I have been training with Cecil for approximately 2 months now. With all the online craze I appreciate having an in-person trainer. Cecil is always on time, pushes you to do your best, counts your reps, and stacks your weights. You cannot get that kind of service online!! In addition, your program is customized. I am a 49-year-old woman and in a short time, I have noticed more strength and tone in my body. My macros have been calculated just for me, and my food diary is tracked, keeping me accountable in the process. I cannot wait to see what the next few months have in store. If you are thinking of hiring a trainer, Cecil is your man! He is worth it, trust me I have tried others and they don't compare.

I am so fortunate to have Cecil for my own personal fitness coach. He has been nothing but GREAT! Cecil has been professional and compassionate at the same time in helping me with every step that I’m taking to meet my fitness plan.
Cecil has also demonstrated patience and great responsiveness like no other. I have never seen so much skill in one personaltrainer like Cecil when I have worked with other trainers in the past. I have learned so much from Cecil in such a short time because of how knowledgeable and understanding he is.
I am feeling great these days and confident that I have met my match for my fitness success!
I highly recommend this top guy and he, Cecil, tops it for fitness coaching and for his overall professionalism, mannerism, compassion, patience and knowledge.
Thank you, Cecil for being the best!!

I’ve been in the fitness industry for over 10 years and I’m NASM educated. I’ve worked for various fitness companies such as 24 Hour Fitness and Self Made Training Facility. I’ve also competed in a men’s physique bodybuilding competition.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I work with customers from all walks of life, from people who have never set foot in a gym before or done any working out to people who have fitness experience but want an extra push. I’m great at challenging clients to be better than they were.
