"2015 was the worst year of my life. 

I was 70 pounds overweight, my whole team was laid off from work, my fiancee and I ended our relationship, and I was diagnosed with cancer. 

Training with Dave helped me push through it all... 

I lost 60 pounds that year working in the gym with Dave 3x/week. I built muscle and got a hell of a lot stronger too. I also beat cancer, started my own company, and met the girl of my dreams, who I am now marrying this fall. 

Train with Dave - he'll change your life... "

"Hey David that program you wrote for me is REALLY good!

I've put on about 10 lbs of muscle and dropped 18 lbs of fat since I started almost 4 months ago.

I think the biggest thing is I started lifting way heavier weights and doing less cardio.

At this pace, I'll be right on time to do my fitness show in November. 

I couldn't have done it without your help, and yes I know, you were right - lifting heavy weights is awesome."

MY PERSONAL TRANSFORMATION:
THE STORY:
Earlier this year, I found myself feeling heavy, sluggish, lethargic and not performing at my best.

I had experienced a serious shoulder injury in 2018, and I had tremendous stress in my life from pretty much every single angle. 

I had totally gone soft on my mindset and my goals.
I forgot who I was.
I got lazy with my diet and training
I made excuses for myself. 

And, I gained weight and felt out-of-shape.

Enough was enough. I decided to draw a line in the sand and make an immediate change that impacted every part of my life.

I went all in and gave it my 100%. No excuses.
75HARD:
I heard about this 'Mental Toughness' challenge called "75HARD" and I decided to do it.

For 75 Days in a Row:

1. Commit to a diet of choice and stick to it. No alcohol. Zero cheat meals.

2. Workout 2x/day, every single day. 1 workout must be outdoors. 1 workout must be in a gym. Both workouts must be at least 45 minutes long. No rest days.

3. Drink 1 gallon of water every single day.

4. Read at least 10 pages of non-fiction, self-improvement/entrepreneurial book every single day.

5. Take a progress picture every single day.

If you miss any of the requirements, you start over at the beginning on Day 1.
MY RESULTS:
When you create enough small victories for yourself you start to realize you have the potential to achieve anything. 

Strength training gives you the ability to see success and to feel great.

I lost 29.2 lbs. and dropped 8.1% body fat in 75 days. 

On July 8th, 2019 I started at 235.5 lbs and 18.4% body fat. 

On September 21st, 2019, I finished at 206.2 lbs. and 10.3% body fat.

More importantly, I regained my edge again. I got my mental clarity and focus back, and I can honestly say that I am in the best shape of my life.

It's time to get serious about your health and fitness. 

Your life depends on it.

"It Is a shame to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which the body is capable..." - Socrates
Working as a Personal Trainer over the last 11 years has allowed me to help improve the lives of over 1,000 men and women across Canada.

From every background, challenge, strength and weakness, injury, and towards every goal imaginable. 

I tend to work with men and women who've focused their energy on business, work/career, family, kids, etc. and have made sacrifices with their health and fitness along the way.

I love helping my clients get into a strength-training routine and watch them finally achieve success with their health and fitness.

Plain and simple: people train with me to become strong and lean while getting their body to move better and eliminate any injuries.

You'll feel better than you did when you were in your 20's, truly becoming the ultimate version of yourself...
Hiring My Own personal trainer changed my life forever...
Pictured Above: 
My first personal trainer, Pedja, and I
I got certified as a Personal Trainer in 2008 and made the decision early on to become the best trainer I could, so I hired the best personal trainer I could find to coach me.

Working with a personal trainer forever changed my life. 

Still to this day, over ten years later, it's the single best investment I've ever made in myself.

There's no way I could have progressed as far and as fast with my training if I was doing it alone.

Having that guidance and coaching got me in amazing shape:

I built a lot of muscle, became stronger, improved my posture and got to a place where my body was more resilient, mobile, leaner and totally pain-free.

I also learned what it was like to be a client (being pushed past your comfort zone in training sessions, learning new techniques, feeling like you're a total beginner, etc).

I feel that this experience puts me in a category above the norm and allows me to better relate to my clients.

from 2011-2016, I was the trainer who trained other personal trainers:
 
For 5 years, I worked for as a Senior Instructor for a global fitness certification company, where I taught their kettlebell certification program.

It was my job to certify personal trainers, strength coaches, gym owners, and other health/wellness professionals on how to use and teach kettlebells safely and effectively, both for their own fitness and for teaching their clients in their businesses.

This experience was an honour and something I am extremely proud to have accomplished. 

It solidified me as an elite-level trainer in Canada.

upgrade your fitness:
You don't have to be An athlete or have any previous experience - just the right attitude and drive to succeed...
FIRST:
You must be committed to achieving your goals, and that means your actions MUST reflect your intention.

While I don't expect perfection from the beginning, I expect that you give it your best 100%, whatever that is right now. 

This is not a 'drop-in when you feel like it', 'casually pick when you want to workout' kind of training program. 

Your sessions will be scheduled at the same time/day each week, and you'll have me to keep you accountable.
SECOND:
You must be open-minded to making healthy lifestyle changes and putting in some effort in the kitchen.

Building muscle, losing body fat and being fit is both nutrition and exercise; you can't do one without the other and expect results.

Don't worry - I won't put you on a diet, that's exactly how to fail.

I'll work with you to put together a simple plan so you can prep your meals at home quickly and easily, make nutrition enjoyable and effective for your body and your goals.
THIRD:
As your personal trainer and coach,  I will do my very best to motivate you, keep you on track and make every workout fun, challenging and engaging.

But, I need you to do the rest by showing up with a good attitude and be ready to put in the work.

At the end of the day, you can have results, or you can have excuses, but you cannot have both!

I don't embrace excuses - I embrace solutions!

Do I need to bring anything to the fitness assessment package sessions?
Yes. We will be doing a few assessments that are physical, so you will need to bring a change of gym clothes and water bottle. There is a water fountain at the gym. I recommend bringing your own water bottle and a lock for the lockers.
