About Virbens

Hello, my name is Virbens Lahens (you may call me V for short) and I am a personal trainer certified by the American Council on Exercise.


 I've been a personal trainer for a decade, and I specialize in strength training, weight loss coaching, and athletic conditioning. 


In my time as a trainer I've gained experience with clients of many different age groups, cultures, and personalities. If you choose to work with me, we'll collaborate to create a training program which is effective and specific to your goals. We'll take measurements, and chart the progress over time so you can see change beyond what you see in the mirror or on the bar. Everything you need to succeed is already within you; I'm just here to help.  


If you're looking to push yourself and reach goals together as a team, I am the trainer for you.


 


The journey won't be easy, or short but I promise it'll change your life.






My favorite quote

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved. - Hellen Keller

My training philosophy

Train with high intensity, and high intentionality.
Push yourself while being focused on the end goal.
Train with a purpose.

My training experience

I have trained as a powerlifter for the past 6 years. I compete in competitions sanctioned by the USAPL in hopes of qualifying for nationals, and then competing at the highest level. Overall, I've been exercising in at least some capacity over the past 12 years.

Before meeting Virbens, I honestly had little to no knowledge about weight training. He gave me the knowledge I need to improve myself physically but a lot of our conversations helped me improve as a person overall. I'm very thankful for my experience with him and I recommend that anyone trains with him.

Virbens has a wealth of knowledge and skills to help you meet your goals! When training with him he pays attention to your form for safety and always has helpful tips on how to improve. Since I began training with him, I have lost over forty pounds! I'm healthier, I'm more active, and I make better dietary choices!

Ben really knows his stuff. Anything you need to know about fitness or nutrition, he is your guy. If you are looking for a training with a wealth of knowledge and overall great training, Ben is for you. His facility has plenty of equipment and is super clean. He is also personable and easy to work with.
