I've been working with Alex for a few weeks now. I'm super excited about training with him. We established what my goals are, and I know that he is committed 100% to helping me get there. He is very attentive, and I am learning so much. I came to him without any weight training experience, and he makes sure that my form is perfect. And, he doesn't let me just go through the motions. He pushes me past what my preconceived limits are.
I had concerns about working with a trainer, mainly because I had to get past my notion of it being a frivolous expense. Those thoughts are way gone because there is no way I could do these workouts on my own. I want to be in the best shape of my life, and I know I have to pay the price to get there, both physically and metaphorically speaking.
I met Alex two years ago off of a Craigslist posting, and he's simply one of the best! First of all, I was a beginner dealing with weights, and he is patient, very attentive to form, and a great motivator. Many other trainers I've worked with get stuck in ruts of the same routines every week. Not so with Alex: I've never been bored with a workout with him and every workout seems so fresh.
Alex's understanding of physiology is simply brilliant. If you have any sort of muscle or joint issue, he will deftly tailor the workout around it, and help you find solutions to fixing the issue. I can think of several times where my neck or back was hurting (unrelated to Alex's workouts) and he was able to find ways of fixing my form, and help me build strength around the area in question.
And finally.. Alex walks the walk and talks the talk. As a former body builder himself, you can see first hand the guy knows what he's doing. Even if you don't want to become "huge" and are just looking for a great workout, Alex is your man.
