Exercise has always been in my blood. I started weight lifting in 1982, and was lucky enough to have one hour (!) of training with a female trainer (!). After that, I was on my own with training and, as a consequence, hurt my shoulder badly. But it healed, or so I thought. Fast forward, Honolulu Club. Aaron was my trainer there, and initially I was skeptical as I wanted a female trainer. Boy oh boy, did I luck out with Aaron! 14 years at the Honolulu Club training together. Aaron is dependable, personable, professional, great thinking on his toes. For example, when I slacked exercising at the Club, he offered to split an hour to get me into the Club exercising. Basically, the biggest step is getting you into the Gym!!! And it worked! Another example, my old shoulder injury reared its ugly head and Aaron adapted our workout for that. Within a year, I was pain free, and as of today I still have full range of motion! How is that for consistency and patience and just do it attitude, all ushered by Aaron! Fast forward today, after 18 years of working out together, I have upped my spiel from 2 hours per week with Aaron to 4 hours a week. Consistency is key and he makes it easy looking to do weight lifting. Aaron is highly knowledgable in exercise physiology, kinesology, patient in building up strength, listens to feedback, and keeps exercises interesting and mixed-up. Even after 18 years and, by now, 4 hours a week of training, I can confidently state that I am not bored one bit by weight lifting and in fact look forward to my workout sessions with Aaron.

Exercise and I are not friends, but Aaron does a great job at keeping me motivated and positive to continue at a task that otherwise would easily fall to the wayside. We have worked out together on and off for over 15 years. During that time, he has helped me meet my various health and fitness goals which have largely been to maintain general health and fitness (e.g., cardio and strength). He is excellent at tailoring workouts to meet one's goals especially under different circumstances. For example, he helped me before, during and after pregnancies and has even given me exercises that I could easily do at a hotel's fitness center. Aaron has also helped me with understanding how to best improve my diet and nutrition. He is professional, non-judgmental, and encouraging even at the smallest bit of progress. Scheduling is flexible, and he is easy to get in touch with, if necessary. Definitely recommend giving Aaron a call!

A consultation meeting with Aaron was a good start towards achieving my fitness goals. He was very easy to talk to and understanding. I'm motivated and looking forward to our workout sessions.
