Personal Training Designed for Real Results, Not Guesswork

If you’ve never worked with a personal trainer—or have had frustrating experiences in the past—you’re in the right place. This is not generic training or rep counting. Every session is guided by expert coaching, biomechanics + personalized programming designed to correct imbalances, relieve pain + build strength + confidence you will maintain. You’ll know exactly what you’re doing, why it matters + how it’s advancing you forward.

Personal Training, Built Around You

If you’ve been working hard without seeing the results you want—or you’re dealing with nagging pain, stiffness, or uncertainty about what your body actually needs—you’re not alone. Many driven, high-performing people reach a point where lack of effort /dedication isn’t the issue + more effort isn’t the answer. Better strategy is.

Our personal training is designed for individuals who want real, visible, measurable change without guesswork, intimidation, or wasted time. Whether your goal is to feel strong again, move without pain, rebuild confidence, or finally see visible results that last, we meet you where you are + build forward with precision.

This is personal training for people who value expertise, privacy, and a thoughtful, science-backed approach to long-term health and performance.

A Different Kind of Personal Training

We are an exclusively one-on-one private training studio. That means every session, every plan, and every detail is tailored specifically to you—your body, your goals, your history + your lifestyle. 

It’s just us, Whitney + Byron + our clients. We do not sell gym memberships. We do not employ other trainers or allow friends to train their clients here. If you’ve felt on display at commercial gyms arranged like a theater where clients are forced to put on the show, you’re not alone. It’s inappropriate. 

Before we ever increase intensity, we focus on understanding how you move. Through detailed assessments, hands-on coaching + biomechanics-driven programming, we identify imbalances, compensations + limitations that may be holding you back or contributing to pain.

From there, we design a customized training strategy that improves alignment, restores proper muscle activation, builds strength intelligently + supports sustainable progress. Nothing is generic. Nothing is rushed. Every rep has a purpose..

Who This Is For

Our clients are motivated, thoughtful individuals who want to train smarter—not just harder. They often come to us after years of inconsistent progress, recurring injuries, or frustration with programs that weren’t built for their bodies.

This training is especially well-suited for you if you:

  • Want visible, trackable results and a clear plan to achieve them

  • Are dealing with pain, tightness, or mobility limitations

  • Feel overwhelmed by conflicting fitness advice + want expert guidance

  • Value privacy, professionalism + a focused training environment

  • Want to feel confident in how you move, lift + live again

You do not need to be “fit enough” to start. You only need the desire to feel better + the willingness to trust a proven process.

What Makes
Our Training
Different

  • Precision + personalization are the foundation of everything we do.

Your program is engineered using biomechanics, corrective exercise principles + progressive strength training to ensure your body is working efficiently + safely.

  • Byron + Whitney are highly hands-on + technique-driven.

We cue alignment, guide activation + use physical feedback when appropriate to help you engage the right muscles + avoid overcompensation. This level of attention allows you to make faster progress while reducing the risk of injury.

  • Training is supported by nutrition analysis + daily macro guidance

Ensuring your efforts in the gym translate into real, sustainable change outside of it. We focus on education + long-term habits—not quick fixes

A Supportive, Private Experience

    “Since training with Whitney, I’ve lost 6.8% body fat and 3 inches around my waist and lower abdomen, and gained 11 lbs of lean muscle—while the scale stayed about the same. My clothes fit so much better and the knee strain and low back pain I had before starting are completely gone.”

  • Billy

    “Since I started training with Byron, I’ve dropped 10 lbs on the scale, added 7 lbs of lean muscle and dropped 17 lbs of body fat (6%). Even after 7 months, I’m still learning something new every session—and the progress keeps leveling up.”

  • Jason

    “My body fat has dropped nearly 10%, I’ve gained meaningful muscle mass and I made tangible corrections to years of bad posture and muscle imbalance. The small tweaks to technique made all the difference—this level of expertise is rare.”

  • Arielle

    “Over 7 months, I lost 30 lbs of fat and gained 10 lbs of muscle, eliminated the lower back pain I’d struggled with for years and lost 6+ inches where I was most insecure. They transformed my relationship with my body and gave me confidence I didn’t have before.”

  • Chris

    “In 8+ months training with Byron, I gained 6.9 lbs of muscle, added 4” to my chest and 1.5” to my biceps and lost 2” off my waist—my body fat dropped 3.3%. I’ve truly never felt more confident in my body.”

  • Sarah

    “I dropped 40.1 lbs, went from 36.10% body fat to 23.60% and lost considerable inches everywhere. I went from ordering the biggest size in a bridesmaid dress to fitting into a size 6 nearly a year later—and I have my confidence back.”

  • Ronit

    “I went from 34% body fat to 20% within a year—gaining 11 pounds of muscle and losing about 30 pounds of fat. They make it feel simple, keep it challenging and the results show it.”

  • Allie

    “I lost 11% body fat in a few short months training 2x/week and have never felt better. The workouts build you up gradually, keep you progressing safely and the results are real.”
