I really enjoy having Chris as my personal trainer. He is knowledgeable with regards to physical fitness. What I like most is he listens to my goals and is lays out a weekly plan that get me where I want to be. I would highly recommend using CP Training.

Chris is the best! He perfectly balanced pushing me to my maximum without going overboard, which has turned me off from personal training in the past. He keeps things fresh and his workouts are diverse, but with enough consistency so that you can tangibly observe progress over time. Chris not only focuses on building endurance and strength but also incorporates lifestyle change recommendations to help his clients reach their goals.

I trained with Chris in New York City. He was the master of squats. He corrected my posture and helped me progress very well.

I had the pleasure of training with Chris for a full year. What started off as training for a race, quickly turned into a lifestyle. Chris is attentive to detail, listens to your goals, and is super fun! Everything he taught me has trickled over into my day to day life - from proper form to better posture. I highly recommend!

Chris is the best trainer I’ve ever had! He’s professional, flexible with your schedule and knows how to get maximum results.

Chris is by far the most personable and professional trainer I've ever worked with. His ability to quickly turn my goals into a maintainable regimen helped me not only see progress almost immediately, but build healthy habits which have stuck with me even after moving out of state. Chris' obsession with finding improvement in every movement and customization of routines to fit exactly what is needed for each of his clients ensures you're getting a 1:1 experience with massively positive results.

I am 45 and Chris has helped me be in the best shape of my life. I started with a goal of building muscle, and he put me on a strength training program. Over nine months I’ve gained almost 15 pounds, which I’ve never been able to do. I also never thought I could lift as much weight as I do now. Every workout and every exercise, Chris challenges you to improve something, even if it’s just one more rep. He tracks your progress and monitors your body’s metrics so you can see how you’re improving. His approach is highly motivating, and you’ll achieve your goals if you follow what he tells you. Don’t expect a therapy session during your training, Chris will work your butt off (or on if you want bigger glutes ?).

Chris helped me come back from major shoulder surgery through careful progression of exercises and resistance. He listens to his clients and ensures that their improvement is his top concern.

Chris is a one stop shop for improving your health!!! Whether your looking to max out a personal best dead lift or just need to get into a routine this guy knows what he’s doing!!! Highly recommend!!

Jonathan S.

Chris has been awesome. I have been training with him for 6 months, he knows what he's doing and is very responsive. He has been very accommodating and flexible with my schedule. Highly recommend!!

Alex A.

Chris is organized, knowledgeable, punctual and very easy to work with. In the 10 plus years I’ve trained I never been stronger or felt better. He pushes me to train hard and helped me to lose 18lbs while continuing to gain strength. I would recommend him to anyone who is interested in improving their over all health.

Camie G.

I have been working with Chris for the past two years and I cannot say good enough things! Before I started, I had a mild aversion to weight training and would avoid that part of the gym, and truthfully most gyms all together. With Chris’s help, I have found I actually really enjoy working out. He brings the perfect level of energy and motivation where I want to improve and constantly feel challenged but it’s never to the point that it feels overbearing, which has turned me off from training in the past. I’ve made a ton of progress and definitely see a big change in how I feel, look and my strength. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a trainer and have referred my friends who have also had an excellent experience. Thank you, Chris for everything you’ve done for me!!!

Karina D.

Training with Chris has been great. Good programs; happy with the results; fun to work with and flexible on busy schedules. Chris is awesome.

Samuel S.

Now that I’m working with Chris I am getting stronger than I’ve ever been even while spending less time in the gym. The workouts are fun, efficient, and no-fluff. Also, Chris is the perfect mix of motivating and understanding that you want in a trainer. Couldn’t recommend him more!

Tessa H.

Chris is professional, knowledgeable and so encouraging. He takes the time to understand all your goals to create a plan that includes challenging but rewarding workouts. I highly recommend Chris to anyone wanting to have a fun workout and see lots of progress!

Katie K.

Chris is awesome! He knows his stuff and works to individualize the program to your needs and goals. He is encouraging, supportive, and motivating. I have tried and stopped many different programs, but have now been with Chris for over a year and feel great and remained healthy, active, and have seen measurable gains in strength.

Zachary M.

Chris is an awesome personal trainer! He is very supportive and emphasizes what I am doing well while also pushing me to have better form and to work harder. I am confident I can meet my goals with his support.

Jenny B.

I trained with Chris for almost a year and a half, and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. When I started, I felt scrawny and wasn’t happy with my physique. I struggled to put on muscle and didn’t have a solid routine. Now, I’ve built real strength, feel great, and I’m consistently hitting PRs. Chris helped me develop a routine that actually works for me and is easy to stick to. He knows his stuff, pushes you in the right way, and makes training enjoyable. Highly recommend him to anyone looking to level up in the gym.

Wyatt W.

Been a client of Chris' for 2.5 years. Some of the best individual coaching I've experienced. He significantly increased my major lifts, showed correct form, provided a schedule and methodology to stay consistent, and he's a positive influence in the gym. Everything is progresses in accordance and we are not rushing into anything. Overall, I feel stronger and more mobile and physically capable. Try a session with Chris!
