Eric has been amazing. We really wanted to find someone who would work with us at our own pace and he has been great at that. He has a motivating approach and keeps things light and fun so we don’t feel like we dread working out!!! I would totally recommend for anyone at any level or stage of their fitness journey.

My husband and I worked out with Eric for two days while we were on vacation. We had a great time and a great workout and forgot that our gym was closed. Eric was punctual, professional and great at giving cues and explaining the focus of each exercise.

Eric has been training my 14 year old son 3x week for approximately 10 weeks. He started out at 190lbs and Eric has helped him transform into a fit 172. At 5’11, it is quite an accomplishment. Eric’s encouragement and positivity is fantastic. We are so very happy with Eric’s personal attention to motivation and personal responsibility. I highly recommend Eric as a trainer.

Eric has been working with my boys for a few years now. I can’t say enough great things about him. My kids love the excercise program he has worked out for them. He makes it fun, yet they get such a great workout. I would recommend him highly to anyone and everyone! He really is the best!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I charge a fixed price per session which varies based upon numerous factors such as: Driving distance, Training frequency, & Time of day one is wanting to train.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
With new clients, we will go through a brief consultation where I will inquire questions about your current lifestyle (occupation, postural habits, physical/recreational activities, etc), we will discuss your fitness goals, address any limitations you may currently have, & perform some physical assessments to test for muscle imbalances. You may also have the option to receive further tips, guidance, and links to help achieve your overall fitness goals! Then, we can proceed with your first training session or reschedule for another day - whichever is convenient for you.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
My Personal Training Certificates include: CPT, CES, PES, CSCS
