Introduction: STOP!! READ FIRST. My preferred way to be contacted is tomprefontaine at hot mail. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not contact me through this site if you are not 100% positive that you intend on hiring a trainer. Contacting me through this site costs me money without the option of declining. Please read second to last paragraph BEFORE contacting me.
All natural professional bodybuilder. Professional in Organization for Competitive Bodies (OCB) and World Natural Bodybuilding Federation (WNBF) available for all your fitness and nutritional needs. Weight and cardio training, personalized program designs, dietary consultations, nutritional plans, and body transformations. Scientific based research and years of experience used to accomplish your fitness goals.
I train both males and females of all ages. Many believe that due to being a bodybuilder myself, I train clients to look the same. This is not the case. Each client's goals are what I develop individualized programs for.

SERIOUS inquiries only please since I have to pay if you contact me without having the option to decline. If you contact me I will provide you my number to discuss details. PLEASE do not contact me if you have no intention on a follow up call. Anyone outside of North Haven, New Haven, East Haven, Hamden, North Branford, Wallingford or Cheshire may be better off finding someone closer, as I normally don't travel that far for clients, as to keep client cost down without having to add for travel time.
So if you're looking to make a change, contact me so I can help you accomplish your goals.

I could not in my wildest dreams have imagined a better fitness experience than working with Tom. As someone recovering from some eating struggles who knew I would continue to gain weight until I figured out what worked for me, I wanted to use that time as an opportunity to get strong-- and Tom helped me do just that. Tom got me from being weak to deadlifting my weight in no time, and I have probably gained at least 15-20 pounds of muscle in the months of working with Tom. He was also willing to coach me on diet if I needed it, was obscenely reasonably priced, and extremely flexible.
Over the last few months Tom has also become one of my good friends and has given me to the tools I need to continue to push my progress for the rest of my life. There is no replacing experience and Tom is a pro bodybuilder with an amazing attitude who knows exactly what he's doing when it comes to form/timing/etc. (He practices what he preaches 24/7.) Plus, no matter what state I showed up in, I always left the gym feeling significantly happier. Tom is an investment in lifestyle, happiness, and fitness all wrapped in one. I am deeply grateful to have had the opportunity to work with someone so dedicated to the sport and to living life positively, day by day.
To Tom-- thank you for everything. I have no idea what my life would be like today if I hadn't met you.
To everyone looking for a personal trainer, whether you're experienced and want some form correction or you're just starting out-- this is what you're looking for.

Speaking as couch potato seniors, the thing we liked best about Tom’s class it is that he truly cares for his clients and does his informed best to tailor a program to meet their needs. Going into his class and expecting to not be able to keep up, we were pleasantly surprised. He tailored the program so we were challenged and still within our comfort zone. He approached our class not to make us body builders, but to improve our lives. It wasn't always easy, but we always left feeling a real sense of accomplishment, soreness in the muscles we worked and stronger for having gone to class. He is to be highly recommended for all levels of ability – if you think working with him is too much for you (seniors take note), think again. We saw him work with children and younger adults with the same goal of improving their lives. Tom works to make you stronger for the activities of daily living - whatever that means to you.

First, I wanted to give you a background of me and how Tom was not only able to transform my physique but also my perception of fitness as a whole.
After years of not going to the gym and living life in the fast food lane, I gained a few (many!) pounds - enough to keep me warm during hibernation.
I wasn’t happy with my body and my appearance, especially since I kept having to buy bigger clothes !
So, I decided to work with Tom and that’s where things changed for me. One thing about Tom is he understands the level your at and pushes you to reach your goal. He structures my workouts specifically for me. He focuses on proper techniques and the amount of reps that are needed to reach my desired physique. I’m not going to lie, he loves his cardio and boy does it kick the crap out of you ....but it works!!
I always ask him diet questions to make sure I am consuming the proper amount of proteins and carbs (pizza is no longer a 3 day a week thing for me anymore!)
Tom keeps its simple and effective. He is truly passionate about what he does and wants others to feel the same way.
Now, after months with working with Tom I have lost 32 pounds and no longer need to use the last hole on my belt! I can finally do 10 pull ups and 50 pushups with out stopping.
Please see before and after pictures.
Give him a shot, you certainly won’t regret it.

Tom was wonderful in getting me in shape and really toning up. He had me make some adjustments to my diet as well and I was happy with the results.
