I CHOOSE BUSY PEOPLEThe big misconception in health is:
A client's priorities are completely up to them, and fitness should be #1. Unless you're an athlete or model, fitness is probably not your top priority. Your job, family, and hobbies, all come before fitness. You know what? That's fine! It is unreasonable for a fitness coach to tell you to prioritize your fitness and adjust your schedule to match. Your fitness should amplify your life, not control it. Absolutely life changing. Alex is simply the most knowledgeable and dedicated trainer I've ever met." I've dropped 5% body fat. At 45, I'm stronger than I've ever been in my life, both physically and mentally. I've taken on challenges I never would have thought possible. I truly feel Alex is an amazing trainer. He listens, keep workouts challenging, and always explains the "why" behind everything. He approaches training from a whole body/health perspective and develops a strong, trusting, relationship." Alex is extremely professional and knowledgeable in every aspects of health and fitness. He is a very good listener and tailored a well balanced fitness program to achieve my goals. I highly recommend Alex to anyone who is looking for a terrific all around trainer. I couldn’t be happier." CLIENT RESULTSThrough hard work and discipline I watched my clients achieve some truly phenomenal results:
-Losing over 160lbs - Building over 20lbs of muscle - Competing at the US Open after having a child. - Getting off their blood pressure meds for good. - Adding hundreds of pounds to their lifts. - Eradicating low back pain after decades of discomfort. Most importantly, they all reclaimed their health and maximized their productivity without a major lifestyle overhaul. |
Alex has been my trainer for years. He has exceptional strengths as a trainer that include a laser like focus on fundamentals, an ability to teach proper form and to analyze and help resolve functional imbalances. The payoff has been increased strength and improved flexibility and balance. If you are looking for a partner to help you achieve your fitness goals I highly recommend Alex." WHY I CAREI've been where you are. As a top performing employee, a manager, and an entrepreneur.
Years ago I started my first business - a Chicago based record label/management company. I was fresh out of college armed only with a BA and unbridled optimism. I was not prepared for how much work it would be. Before college I was an All-State baseball player and worked out daily. Now, with the weight of a business on my shoulders, I started skipping the gym. I ate whatever was convenient. I didn't deal with my stress or protect my sleep. I failed to manage my mental or emotional state. This led to poor focus on my work. I struggled to make decisions through thick mind fog. I drowned in long work days. My health spiraled downward over the months of stress, fatigue, and deconditioning. Eventually, I couldn't produce quality work. I gained fat, lost muscle, and constantly felt terrible. The business went under and I moved back across the country to live with my parents. Not exactly a fairy tale. When I began personal training I made a commitment to the physical side of my health. I completed a minimum number of workouts each week and ate very healthy. However, I was working insane hours. I trained clients 12 hours per day, 6 days per week. I kept this insane pace far too long. The diet and exercise definitely helped, but I failed to manage my stress and rest. Due to the mounting stress and fatigue I was ill constantly. My brain once again turned to mush. I've had great results and even enjoy my time at the gym now. So happy to be working with Alex!" |
I have been training with Alex for about a year and a half. I came to him feeling defeated and weak. After a few short months of training with Alex, I began to see positive changes and I could feel myself getting stronger. When I would have a rough day, Alex would help keep me motivated and on track. After a full year of training we did a new assessment and I could really see how much I've grown. He helped me become stronger physically and mentally. He honestly changed my life. I now can't wait to see how heavy of weights I can lift and love seeing the muscle definition. I am proud of what my body can do and that's all thanks to this superhero.. Alex Cain." |
I've learned how to workout effectively! Achieved competence in basic compound lifts. I can do these safely and with confidence on my own now. I've seen strength and tone gains across all of my focus areas, and understand where I need better balance, and how to work on those things. I've significantly improved my fitness. This helps in all other areas of my life. I look better (people think I am 10 years younger than I actually am), I feel better, I ski better, I sleep better, and my mood is better. I'm able to ask questions to learn what I want to learn. The workout plans and schedules are flexible and they fit my needs. And finally it wasn't weird at all. Alex, you're easy to work with." |
Alex has worked with me throughout my cancer diagnosis and treatments. I am a stronger person physically but also mentally because of him. He's taught me to celebrate even the littlest accomplishments. I wouldn't train with anyone else but him." |
Alex is easily the most focused, knowledgeable, and dedicated trainer that I've ever had. I look forward to my workouts now. If you are trying to find the best trainer in the Seattle area, you need look no further. He is the real deal. Thanks Alex, for really improving my life." |
Alex had been my trainer for several years now, starting before he had his own business! He is very knowledgeable and tailors my workouts to my needs (and my injuries and ailments). He doesn't give me grief about my diet as that is not my focus (and he doesn't make me feel bad for it). I've worked out solo, with a partner, with a small group, and with my two boys who have just started working out. It's always fun. Highly recommend Alex... He's the best!" |
Been a client of Alex's for a few years now. I sometimes partner train with my SO, and Alex always comes up with a personalized program that works for both of us in our partner training. Or when I train solo, he also makes a great personalized program. He has helped out with my work out injuries and worked out around it. Alex also has great customer service and shows that he really cares for his clients." |
A friend of mine referred me to Alex for a shoulder injury. After a somewhat painful initial assessment, he put together a personalized program to not only strengthen my shoulder but strengthen the rest of my body as well: core, legs, glutes. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about his training and clients. He happily explains how and why the muscles react/interact in relation to my injury. My shoulder is doing much better. I call him Yoda." |
Working with Alex on my strength and fitness has been an amazing experience! He is very knowledgeable about body strength and wellness. He is passionate about his work and going above and beyond to make his clients feel their best. He is also encouraging and so fun to chat with during sessions. If you're looking for a fitness trainer, I could not recommend anyone better!" |
Fantastic! Very personable and attentive, and flexible. I could not ask for a better trainer!" |
Alex changed my life! I was down in both physical and mental health. I know what I can do and even though consistency is a constant challenge I never gave up! Highly recommend Alex!" |
