CRISTIANO
DA SILVA

​

I would rate Cristiano as 10 stars if I could!
His personal training has been life changing.

I decided to utilize a personal trainer to get me back on track after recovering from breast cancer treatment. I was looking for an independent studio to have a one on one approach in a safe environment. Upon research, I discovered Cristiano's studio and felt like his expertise and professionalism would be a good match.

Fast forward 5 months of committed training and my energy levels have increased, I am gaining strength, and building confidence. Cristiano is patient, personable, friendly, and an expert in is field. The training programs have been developed specifically for my needs and every session has a focus on stretching and mobility training, which has been super beneficial. I wish I would have found his service sooner! The progress I am seeing is incredibly rewarding.

After seeing my enthusiasm, my husband has started joining 1 session a week with me. Cristiano makes the dual training session so much fun and creates a challenge for the both of us. My husband has been an athlete his entire life and is so impressed by Cristiano's knowledge and training ability. He has learned so much in a short time training with him.

Highly recommended Cristiano and his personal training studio!

I can't say enough about Cristiano and his personal training abilities. He is friendly, professional, patient, encouraging, and above all, knowledgeable!
I was nervous about seeing a trainer, especially during COVID, but Cristiano's health and safety precautions put me at ease. His studio is always neat, he is constantly circulating and cleaning the air, his equipment is sanitized in-between sessions, and he keeps social distancing norms.

I have had personal trainers before and Cristiano is by far the best one I've met. Since starting with him, I have a better mind-body connection, my form has improved, my body is stronger, my posture is better, and I feel more energized! His methodical and detail-oriented approach ensures I am constantly pushing myself and progressing, even on exercises I thought I already knew, like squats.

With Cristiano, you get more than training, you also learn about your body as a whole. He understands how the body's systems and movement are interconnected and helps you understand it too. This is especially useful if you hurt yourself, have a spasms, are in chronic pain, recovering from surgery or need to compliment your physical therapy. No matter where you are on your journey, he's there to support your unique needs and put you on a path to recovery and holistic wellbeing.

If you're thinking about signing up, do it! You won't find anyone better and your body will thank you when you catch your breath!

Each time the workout keeps getting better!
Now that I've been working with Cristiano for a few months - I'm seeing great results in my body.  What makes him the best is his attention to detail, and how he teaches trigger point release before the workout, and gives you a SUPER RELAXING assisted stretching session at the end of your workout. Imagine getting a mini Thai Massage that helps you melt and keeps you from being crazy sore the day after your workout. (Honestly, I can't afford to be crazy sore, I'm a medical provider and a new mom - I've gotta be able to use my legs!)  

He identified right away why I kept getting injured in fitness classes (or couldn't walk for days after), even though I'm relatively fit. Apparently even though I'm strong and flexible, my stabilizing muscles are underdeveloped. His intro offer for an assessment and 3 sessions was a no-brainer smart investment. Now he has me doing brilliant exercises building up my exact weak areas while accentuating my areas of strength. (This guy is some sort of reincarnated master of the physical body!) - it's always fun and engaging. He has a great attitude, and he is able to make such great use of the small studio space.  I'm not injuring myself any more, and I'm seeing great results already. I love that he has an area upstairs to warm up, change clothes, or refresh myself after a session.

Cristiano is, by far, the best personal trainer I have ever had! He is incredibly knowledgeable, focused, very professional, patient, and encouraging. I really appreciate his attention to detail and the individualized attention he gives his clients. I have lived in different cities and worked with different personal trainers who helped me prepare for my first triathlon, marathon races, and thru-hiking and I can honestly say, you won't find another trainer with all of the qualities and experience Cristiano has. I learn a lot about biomechanics and good form every day we train and he's great at answering any questions. He knows a lot! Before I started training with Cristiano, I had a lot of hip and lower back pain and tightness that was keeping me from hiking. My primary care physician couldn't figure out what was wrong and his only recommendation was for me to take narcotics to mask the pain. Since I've been working with Cristiano, not only has he helped me understand what could be causing my hip and lower back problems, but I feel significantly better, my body is stronger and I have improved my form. I have not taken pain meds since. I am now working oversees and we continue to train through video! So he is willing to truly accommodate to your needs.

His studio is also impeccable! It's very nice, clean, and he has pretty much anything you would find in a gym. It's impressive. I would recommend you check out his website if you want to read what other clients have to say. After reading quotes from previous clients, I was sold and really glad I made that call. He's awesome!

Highly recommend! Cristiano applies his deep knowledge of the body with his passionate spirit to help people, that he truly cares. I have experienced great benefits in body, mind, and spirit through personal training with him. He is always positive and uplifting, and has a keen sense of body mechanics and proper form which is so essential in longevity of practice. Im so grateful to him, he is the best!

Cristiano is the best! Both my daughter and I have trained with Cristiano, and have seen amazing results in such a short amount of time. He is extremely knowledgeable and supportive in making your personal training goals happen. He personalizes each session to precisely what each client needs. As a professional dancer dealing with the crux of 'aging' out of my practice, training with Cristiano has helped me heal my body in kinesthetically intelligent ways. Training with Cristiano has also helped me strengthen and appreciate my body immensely!

Choosing to work out with a personal trainer has been one of the most beneficial additions to my health and well being. Training with Cristiano has been life changing. I am 58 years old. I have had 3 major spinal fusion surgeries with the insertion of rods and pins along my spine. Cristiano's knowledge of anatomy and physiology and exercise techniques has been extremely helpful to strengthen my muscles without pain or stress to my back. Cristiano challenges me beyond what I believe I am capable of and knows in what areas to let me work in my comfort zone until I am ready. When learning new exercises Cristiano has taught me to be patient, to learn the exercise correctly and perform it accurately in order to achieve the most from my workouts. He is conscientious of my posture and body mechanics. I am very satisfied with the changes I have seen and felt in my body, my strength and agility since training with Cristiano. I enjoy Cristiano's kind, gentle, encouraging and individualized approach. He is reliable, very respectful, has a wonderful sense of humor and a genuine concern for his clients. I enjoy training with Cristiano and look forward to continuing to strengthen, firm and challenge my body to a long and healthy life.

Cristiano is an excellent trainer. I have been working with him for almost a year. He works with you at your level, making sure you feel comfortable but at the same time challenging you. Cristiano has helped me train for events like the Spartan Race, focusing on obstacle events. He is a trainer that goes above and beyond to make sure you receive the results you want. Cristiano has knowledge that helps you focus on areas of weakness to help strengthen them in a safe way. I highly recommend Cristiano.

I feel super lucky to have found Cristiano! After not working out for a long time I was nervous about getting started again and not injuring myself. Cristiano has helped me work through my initial concerns by focusing on my endurance and strength. Working with him has motivated me to keep training, and I already see results. He is very knowledgable and I feel like I am working with a true expert.

I have been training with Cristiano for a few years now (eight years and counting). I have found him to be very organized, and he has a unique routine planned for each session which helps to keep me interested and motivated. He takes good notes on my progress, and keeps pushing me ahead. He is very polite, but at the same time encouraging and motivating which strikes a good balance for me. I started working out with Cris as a way to prepare for a couple of big bike rides (a century and a double century). I completed them both with relative ease, and I attribute a lot of the credit to Cris for helping me build good functional strength, which is essential for long hours on the bike. Now, as a dad I appreciate how Cris has been flexible and responsive to my changing needs. I highly recommend Cris as a professional trainer and wish him the best!
