I needed to lose weight and help with my nutrition.
I lost almost 50 pounds since I started, and I still don’t plan on leaving any time soon.
I could not figure out a balance between work, sleep, eating well, and taking care of myself.
Kevin has helped my only by helping me lose the weight I wanted but by developing positive lifestyle habits that allow me to consistently improve and get stronger throughout the process.
I had taken a year off due to shoulder surgery only to gain 20 lbs. and I ironically lost a lot of overall mobility while focusing on my shoulder physical therapy.
Kevin’s approach as a personal trainer is more of a life coach. It is a holistic one encompassing not just exercise and fitness, but diet, sleep, and mental well-being. He sees the whole picture and he engages his clients to be proactive on many levels beyond his time with his clients.
When my 41st year was looming, I decided that I could no longer just let life happen.
I needed to take action. Luckily life sent me Kevin to help get my life in gear and provide the tools necessary to make those positive changes in my life. Have I been perfect all the time? Hell No! Kevin has been there to keep me accountable, calls me out on my excuses, and sometimes acts as a part-time therapist…everything a good trainer should do.
I was looking for a gym that was different. I wanted to get more out of my workouts.
The coaches make every effort to ensure that each person is getting the most out of their workouts. They do a great job of not only pushing you to consistently improve but making sure you do all of the movements with the correct form.
While training for the LA marathon this year I started having pretty significant knee pain because I took a hiatus from weight training and had imbalanced leg muscle strength.
If I could give Sweat 60 100 stars, I would. Kevin’s training – and his modifications when needed – completely halted the progression of my knee pain and literally got me through race day pain-free.
I wasn't sure how to achieve my physical goals.
The flexible approach is fantastic. Kevin and I have been working towards my specific goals. The comfortable environment, community, and people are fantastic.
Between the excess weight and knee problems, I needed to lose weight.
I was 60 pounds heavier before, but not only did I lose weight, I reshaped my body. Motivated by the results, accountability, and great trainers, I feel great at 73.
Before, I dealt with pain due to my sedentary work life, but now, I enjoy activities pain-free.
With tailored workouts, I can hike, ski, and even golf better. If you’re willing to commit and want real results, Sweat 60’s approach is time well spent.
Being consistent with workouts, especially with my demanding job, was tough.
I initially did group workouts here and then turned to personal training after hurting my back during COVID-19. Sweat 60’s knowledgeable trainers and tailored approach have been great, making the challenging workouts enjoyable. They’ve helped me regain strength, eliminate back pain, and boost my energy.
Overcoming injuries and mental barriers has been transformative, improving not just my fitness but also my overall health.
The instant connection, individual support, and tailored approach kept me engaged. The trainers meet you where you are, and their genuine approach creates variety and a comfortable environment.
My quest was to find a place that focused on building muscle and strength the smart way, not just getting big.
