About Chris

Hey there, I'm Chris. I'm in this great city pursuing an acting career. In my journeys, I have found a great love for the health and fitness world, coupled with a passion for helping others to succeed. My approach to training is simple and effective. I am all about balance. I believe the mental and emotional health of my clients is every bit as important as the physical. I have found a way to integrate components of all 3 together in a challenging, yet effective way. I will help you build a strong intra-personal relationship. After working with me, you will have increased energy availability, a sharper mind and focus on daily tasks, a stronger overall level of fitness and a renewed vigor and motivation to get to the next level in all aspects of your life.

I have worked out with a personal trainer since I was 8 years old. I played all kinds of sports throughout my childhood in order to keep myself active. Most importantly, I understand how to work with people.

I always look forward to my training sessions with Chris. He has a great personality and is easy to relate to. He takes the time to learn about your goals and builds a workout around those needs. Chris works with me to get the results that I want.

I've been working with Chris twice a week for the past 3 months and it is amazing the changes I've accomplished with his guidance. Physically my endurance, strength, and balance have improved greatly (I can keep a short conversation while jogging). Mentally I have learned to embrace the pain and burning muscles, focus on my breathing, and know that it is all for a good cause. Chris is very good at keeping you focused and he teaches you as you are training so that there is a deeper understanding and awareness of what it is that your body is doing. Chris is very easy to talk to and will make you feel comfortable in a gym giving you the confidence to venture out on your own.

I decided to invest on a trainer in order to get the motivation and it was one of the best decisions. Training with Chris was a choice I do not regret at all, he definitely knows what he is doing. He is very patient, friendly, caring and takes the time to explain the necessary things as we worked out together for example, forms, structure and benefits. The exercises that Chris has taught me I will remember forever, and will be sure to incorporate them in my workouts. We trained together for two months and I feel like I am in the BEST SHAPE EVER!!!!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!!!!!! ONE OF THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!

Chris and I met through work in 2014. We got to talking about fitness and I explained to him my struggles with my weight and inconsistent workout habits. I had just graduated college and wasn't my healthiest, I had struggled with food. Over and under eating was a huge issue for me. Chris listened to my history and promised to help me get on a track that will be consistent and healthy. We started at the gym where he had a plan set for me. I was nervous but Chris made me feel safe and comfortable with the new exercises. After a few months of constant lifting and proper eating, I gained muscle and dropped weight AND I was the clearest I had ever been mentally. Chris truly has a gift and a passion for helping others reach their goals. He instilled confidence in me which I still carry today. Whenever I am in the gym, I hear Chris in my head coaching me through exercises. I am honored to have trained with him and to call him a friend.

If you're looking for a trainer who can not only help you get results but also help you have fun and learn more about your own body, Chris is the trainer for you. His style of training is extremely personal to help get you the results you want but also helps you understand why these exercises get you results. His personality shines through and he's one of the easiest people to talk to. Great work outs, great person, great experience. Have and will continue to recommend him to everyone I know.

As someone who has fallen off the fitness train a few time, a trainer is so important for some people for accountability. Chris really gave me the best workout I've had. I left feeling like I was more awake and had more energy than when I walked in. He also was great as reassuring me that I could do everything he was asking of me. Along with being super friendly and funny I have to recommend him hands down! Can't wait to work out again next week!

Hi there! I've been trying the gym looking for the right trainer for years. And Chris is the first person that has successfully gotten me excited about the gym. He is passionate and truly cares about each of his clients. He is also very adaptable at sensing where you are, where you need to go and how to get you there. Train with Chris for some solid training and fun at the gym.

#BodiesByBober Works!!! Chris is a skilled trainer who works at your fitness level, but also pushes you beyond your comfort zone. He takes the time to listen to you fitness goals and learn your body's potential… and its limitations to craft a regimen especially for you. No two days are the same and he keeps workouts fun and interesting. Yet, the best thing about Chris is that he's caring and it feels like you're working out with a friend.

Chris’s great guidelines and mixed movement instruction helps to keep you on your toes. He always has new combinations of exercises for muscle groups. His attitude no matter what time you work with him is always great. You truly feel like he is present with you and never distracted! Working with him encourages me to challenge myself to push my limits. Training for races or trying to set personal bests Chris always has my interests in mind when I tell him what goals I have at the moment. World Class experience!

As a former athlete, I have had my fair share of one-on-one trainings in the gym. Playing basketball, football, track & field, as well as pursuing a very physically demanding career (entertainment), my desire to stay in shape has become a necessity; an addiction to a healthy life that allows me to balance work and play. Chris’ method of instruction has been a perfect match for my lifestyle because his intentions are just that - to match my lifestyle. He takes my goals along with my physical incapabilities he observes, and teaches me how properly care for my body. What I am most impressed with is his wealth of knowledge of both how our muscles work together for each movement of the body and how versitile my workouts are. I am always on my toes with new, exciting workouts that build on one another - focusing on progression - that helps me focus on my goals instead of how tired I am performing each exercise. Our hour together is typically full of laughter and I always leave with a lesson or two that I get to carry with me in the week, making me feel even better about doing something good for me. I highly recommend these services for all levels.

I have been training with Chris for over three years now. When we started, I hadn't worked out in a long time and he helped me achieve my goal of getting back into shape. Chris is really knowledgeable when it comes to the body and muscle systems; he was able to identify some imbalances for me and craft workouts to correct them and strengthen underperforming muscles. Chris also brings a great energy to our workouts that helps me a lot. The fact that I look forward to my workouts with Chris has made all the difference over the last couple years in helping me stay consistent in my routine. I can honestly say that starting to workout with Chris was one of the most impactful decisions I've made in the past few years. I highly recommend him.
