The man with a plan! Thx to this guy I lost a very stubborn 15 pounds. He is incredible at his profession. Offering concise lifestyle diet plans to go along with effective/intense workout sessions. His motivation for healthy outcomes becomes contagious. I enjoy his style of comprehensive training which offers a lot of support in the other areas of healthy living including discipline practice, eating right and overcoming mental obstacles. If you are ready for a real change, Kris is your guy!

I have been a client of Kris' for over 2 years now and I cannot recommend him enough! As someone who has always been intimidated by workouts in general, I really enjoy training with him 1-2x/week.
He tailors each workout to your personal goals and makes sure you're comfortable with each movement. I recently injured my back running and he's been able to help me strengthen my core to avoid any additional injury while also being mindful of pain or issues I had. Kris also goes above and beyond by providing advice on nutrition and recovery/stretching.
He's someone who is an absolute joy to be around and will root for your success always. I went from being someone who actively avoided working out to someone who looked forward to her next training session!

Kris is an incredible personaltrainer! Worked with him the past year and half both at my apt and his gym and can’t recommend him enough. He is incredibly knowledgeable and custom designs workout plans for your goals. He also is the most dedicated trainer I’ve ever worked with - checking in, designing workout plans for days that I’m out of town so I can still reach my goals, and sending info and recommendations for nutrition, supplements, etc. My strength and conditioning has increased tremendously, he’s well priced, and I look forward to our sessions each week. If you’re in Manhattan, definitely check him out!

Kris is an incredible trainer who is both knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I'm in my late 30s, and have never been able to stick to a workout routine. However, after I started working with Kris, I was quickly lifting 5 days a week. Kris answered all my questions, worked around my weird schedule, and his communication was great. He also helped me be more mindful about my eating in order to support my fitness goals. If you are looking to finally make exercise part of your life, Kris is the guy to have in your corner!

Working with Kristopher has been nothing short of excellent. He has helped me get in significantly better shape, reach my goal of building muscle mass, and, most importantly, stay motivated week after week.
I truly appreciate his incredible flexibility and adaptability to meet in person or on Zoom. I have a constantly changing schedule due to frequent travel, and Kris goes above and beyond to accommodate my needs.
Every session is tailored to my personal level and goals, always challenging yet varied and fun, leaving me feeling stronger and more accomplished. Kris also has a knack for making workouts genuinely enjoyable with engaging conversation that makes the time fly by.
He also offers valuable advice on nutrition, recovery, and maintaining a balanced mindset.
If you’re looking for a trainer who is deeply knowledgeable, motivating, adaptable, and genuinely invested in your success, look no further. Highly recommend!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
The price you currently see is the discount rate that I'm running as a "Summer Kickoff" special.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Each session will be a total of 55 minutes and will include full body workouts depending on the amount of days we train. There will be a lot of core work included in each workout along with some HIIT to sustain lean muscle and reduce body fat.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
