Postiga Fitness Vancouver - Private Personal Training

Jack is the best! He has helped me work through post abdominal surgery with a workable yet challenging exercise routine. He checks in with me regularly. He is kind, caring, knowledgeable and likes to have a good laugh.

I am not an athletic person by any means, but as a recreational runner, I had a goal of completing a marathon. I have also never had a personal trainer before, but I wanted to make sure that I would stay injury-free as I increased my running volume. Jack worked with me for my whole marathon training cycle, and I felt very safe and confident in his expertise. He pushed me to develop my strength and endurance in our sessions, while being very mindful of any weaknesses or pain/overwork of my body as my training progressed. He was also very encouraging and patient, and always made sure that I would perform the workouts correctly. I kept seeing improvements in my strength and fitness, and ultimately, I did complete my marathon comfortably and injury-free, and I do credit so much of that to the program that Jack had developed for me.

I have been seeing Jack since March 2022, and Anna since late spring 2022. They are both great. I am someone who is not that naturally comfortable in the gym, and so it’s been great seeing two trainers who are both super encouraging/supportive and knowledgeable (but also push me to improve and ensure I have proper form). I have done personal training at other places (ie “big box” store fitness gyms) and I find the quality of the training (and the relationship) is much better at Postiga. I have a few injuries, so I am more complicated than the average person from the point of view of appropriate exercises and that is fully considered when making my training plan. They switch up the exercises in my training plan frequently enough that my workouts don’t feel repetitive. I don’t love going to the gym to work out on other days (like I said not a gym person), so Jack made a separate program based on the gear I have at home for home work outs, which I really appreciate. In addition to one on one personal training I have done group training with Jack and he manages the group really well (in addition to being encouraging, and knowledgeable, he is also really organized). Jack has also had conversations with me about optimal nutrition and it’s made me more aware of the importance of diet in attaining fitness goals/overall health and is something I am now working on. Bottom line- I am super happy with the gains I have had since starting personal training at Postiga fitness.

Jack was a great trainer, he knew exactly the areas that I needed to work on. He was a wealth of knowledge and I would definitely recommend him if you are looking to feel better about yourself.Its hard work, but he will really help you achieve your goals.

Highly recommend! I’ve been training with Jack for almost 6 months now and have noticed a huge difference in my strength and confidence in the gym. I really appreciate the variety in my programs and the flexibility when it comes to booking and managing sessions. All around great experience! Looking forward to continuing my training!

I've been training with Jack weekly for several months now and have had nothing but a positive experience!I had a lot of nervousness going into training in general as a queer/trans person recovering from top surgery, but Jack's program has been super affirming and helpful in rebuilding my strength from surgery. I started from basically level zero, and have seen measurable progress (and can do so many pushups now!). He's really good at pushing and motivating, as well as setting up an intuitive plan for outside of sessions. This is the first time in my adult life I've consistently worked out, and felt good doing it. That's so exciting!The space is comfortable, easy to get to and has a shiny new cable/weight machine. Definitely recommend!

The trainers at Postiga Fitness have helped me stay injury free and I can see an improvement in my muscle definition. Thanks to them, I am constantly breaking my personal best records. I’m really happy with my results and enjoy working out there!

Jack is a fantastic trainer!!! I've been training with Jack for three months. I can obviously feel myself getting stronger, fitter and healthier. Workout used to be a stressful thing for me, and I also had lower back pain. So it's difficult for me to exercise on a consistent basis. But after I started to train here, except for the weekly personal training, Jack also helps to plan the home gym workouts according to your requests, which frees me from overthinking what kind of workout I need to do. The fitness improvements also give me more motivation to keep going to the gym.It's definitely a fun environment for people to get training. I feel more comfortable to train here than in huge gyms. You only need to focus on yourself.Really appreciate it~ Highly recommended!

I have been training with Masi over a year. Not only she is incredibly knowledgeable about fitness and nutrition, but she is also a supportive and motivating coach who truly cares about her clients. With her guidance, I have achieved results that I never thought were possible. She has helped me to push past my limits and reach new heights in my fitness journey. I appreciate her dedication to tailoring each workout to my individual needs and goals, and her positive attitude has made every session a joy.
