I’ve got 10 years of weight lifting experience and about 6 years in personal trainings. I believe that workouts need to be fun and entertaining, and a trainer supposed to be a friend. There’s no magic or special secret workout program nor exercise to get fit within short period of time. The magic in my opinion is to find most comfortable and favorite exercises for every muscle group that you don’t mind to keep up doing. Workouts need to be flexible and intuitive. I believe in quality over quantity of clients, so I do not have many, but I do care about each of them.
Customers rated this pro highly for responsiveness, work quality, and professionalism.

Ilia was able to find what I needed within a few minutes of meeting me. He was motivating but not overbearing. I was nervous to have a trainer for the first time, but he was able to quell my fears and lead me through a challenging workout. I was able tofeel good about myself and be pleasantly surprised with my efforts at the end of it. Highly recommend it!

I’ve had the pleasure of training with Ilia, and I can confidently say he’s everything you want in a personaltrainer, no matter your experience level. As someone who started from scratch at the gym, his approach has been both welcoming and transformative.
He is mature beyond his years. His understanding of individual limitations and his ability to tailor workouts to meet those needs without sacrificing results is impressive. Whether you're a complete beginner or advanced, he adapts his methods to suit your unique situation, ensuring you get the most out of each session.
What sets him apart is his personal touch. He takes the time to get to know you as a person, not just a client, which significantly enhances the training experience. His attention to detail is impeccable – from adjusting your chair to advising on water intake and constantly checking in on your progress. He doesn’t just bark orders; he guides you through the process with patience and genuine care.
Training with IIia doesn’t feel like a daunting task but a journey tailored specifically for you. Whether you need just a few weeks of guidance or a complete restart, he’s the trainer you want by your side. His focus on your goals, rather than his own, makes all the difference.
I highly recommend him to anyone looking to make real progress at the gym.

Ilia was the first person to respond to me and I’m glad he did! I like the flexibility in both his schedule and while training. He is always accommodating my schedule and switches things up often during our training sessions. He shows you and helps you maintain perfect form and will even work out with you. He also explains how he achieved his body goals and talks about diet. He is easy to get along with and comes highly recommended.

Ilia has been great to work with. I am starting back training after a long hiatus and Ilia's workouts are perfect. He is punctual and focused on the workout throughout. We work out in my community gym which is small and has limited resources, but Ilia is so knowledgeable and resourceful, he is able to maximize the equipment that is available. Best of all the time flies by, even though I am working hard, and I look forward to each new session.
