“I started working with Justin because I felt I had hit a wall with the other exercise methods I was using (Jazzercise). I had planned on using a 6-week session and now 3 years later I am still loving the results and enjoy the varied routines. Justin has helped me with motivation, nutrition, and always stays positive with me even when I struggle. I can understand why people are intimidated by personal trainers, but Justin makes it feel like I am working out with a friend, and I think anyone would attest to the results I have achieved.”

“Carrying twin babies to full term wreaked havoc on my body. After eight years of ongoing tight IT Bands and intense hip pain stemming from tight hip flexors, using the Pilates Reformer for my rehab has taken away my daily throbbing pain. The stretching and strengthening have become a part of my workout routine I didn’t realize I needed.”

“I’ve been training with Justin since 2017, and believe he is one of the most experienced & committed trainers around. I started training several times a week, as part of a group session, really enjoyed the variety & challenge he put into the sessions & then took on personal one-on-one sessions and Pilates Reformer classes as well!
Justin is focused on helping me achieve my goals and makes every session challenging (and somehow fun). My fitness has increased noticeably with weight loss and lean muscle development. I’ve seen improvements in my ability to complete more core exercises, increase cardio speed, lift progressively heavier weights and generally push myself harder throughout each session. I find I actually look forward to my workouts.
More Importantly:
– Justin ensures that my technique is always correct to avoid any injuries.
– Justin is extremely reliable & punctual – always set up & ready to start training ahead of time, with an exercise routine planned and tailored to my fitness needs.
I thoroughly enjoy working out at Valiant Fitness and would recommend Justin and Olivia to anyone looking to improve their fitness with a dedicated group of trainers.”

"I highly recommend Valiant Fitness for anyone’s fitness and/or nutritional needs. I have been a client of Justin’s for close to seven years now, having followed him from his previous site to this gym of his own. Justin always knows how much to push me, yet remains cognizant of any trauma I may have. He knows how much I like the TRX and always tries to incorporate that piece of equipment into my routine! I also like to work the core and we do a lot of ab work too. I enjoy Justin’s 5:30am Boot Camp three days a week, but I especially enjoy my private training session on Saturday mornings because that is when he can really personalize my workout. I intend on remaining a client of Justin and Valiant Fitness forever!”

"I started my fitness journey at Valiant Fitness when Justin first opened. It was at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, and I was glad his center was able to stay open. My goals are to keep in shape by staying active as I age and to work through knee and foot surgeries. I participate in bootcamp and personal training and occasionally use a PT session for Pilates. I have also gone to the food prep classes and nutrition seminars offered by Olivia. My favorite part of my workouts at Valiant Fitness is Justin and Olivia's willingness to work with the needs of my body and adjust my workouts and exercises as needed. They both keep things interesting, and I always look forward to coming to see what's next on their docket."
