Clients reviews about Train Like Rob-Personal Trainer Vancouver

If you're not training with Rob, what's wrong with you? Just kidding. Rob is honestly one of the best in the business. With over 20+ years of experience and constant learning/refining of his skills he's a great coach. He's got multiple certifications under his belt and with that, he knows right away exactly what his clients need on top of letting them get to where they want or should be -- in a realistic and manageable manner. Words alone don't express the quality of his knowledge and training. He's got a strong presence that can't be beat and you know that when you're with him, he's there to bring out your fullest potential. I trust Rob and respect him even more as a coach, mentor, and friend. Go on! Go train with him. I guarantee you, you won't find anyone else like him. ~ Grace J

I was referred to Rob by a friend after I moved to Vancouver last year. I am 44, and after consistently working with Rob for the past 8 months I’ve lost almost 20lbs, but more importantly, I feel strong and we are fixing ailments I’ve had most of my life! He’s caring and compassionate, and is a wealth of knowledge. The workouts are not cookie cutter routines, but really cater to my body and my needs in the moment. All of that with the added support and help with nutrition planning, he’s simply the best:) Rob is an important part of my health and wellness routine, and I’m very thankful for having him. I’ve worked with a number of personal trainers in the past, and I can officially say he’s the best! ~ Suzette R

I can't say enough about the outstanding personal training experience I had with Rob. This has been, without a doubt, the best training I've ever received. Robs knowledge of the fitness industry is truly unparalleled – their expertise is both extensive and innovative. They introduced me to cutting-edge techniques and tailored my workouts to perfection. Not only did they push me to reach new heights, but they also educated me about the science behind each exercise. Their passion for fitness is infectious, and I'm so grateful for the insights they've provided. If you're looking for a game-changing fitness journey, Rob is the trainer you want to work with. :) ~ Rachel D

I started training with Rob when I was completely new to working out, and he made the whole process approachable and effective from the very beginning. His experience really shows in the way he structures workouts and plans each session with purpose. Rob created a balanced training program that helped me build strength, improve my overall fitness, and stay consistent without feeling overwhelmed as a beginner. He always explained the exercises clearly, paid attention to form, and adjusted the plan when needed so I could keep progressing safely. Thanks to his guidance and thoughtful planning, I’ve gotten into much better shape and developed a solid foundation for working out. I really appreciate his professionalism, encouragement, and knowledge, and I would highly recommend Rob to anyone looking for a trainer who knows how to guide people at any level. ~ Amber U

Rob helped me get back into the gym when I was in a total lull with my workouts. I’ve been lifting for years and already knew a lot about fitness, but I was struggling with motivation and figuring out what actually worked for my body in my 30s. What I appreciated most is that he didn’t just give me a generic program. He listened to how I wanted my body to look and built workouts around that. He’s honest, fun to train with, and doesn’t let you get away with your own excuses (which I needed). Working with Rob made the gym enjoyable again and helped me feel confident in my workouts. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a trainer who actually listens and knows what he’s doing. ~ Leneath Y

Rob is probably the best trainer in the lower mainland-he has extensive knowledge in personal training, and biomechanics. If you are having pain or have a certain weakness, he can tell right away and knows exactly how to solve the problem. For example, this one time I was having a bit of pain in my hip and when I walked in for my session Rob noticed immediately that my gait had changed (even though I didn’t even notice until he mentioned it to me) and the best thing was he changed our workout to accommodate for that. Whether you want to do resistance training, boxing or other forms of training, Rob is the best in the business. Highly recommend! ~ Vic D

I started to train with Ron in October 2022. He was recommended to me by a good friend who improved her physical condition tremendously working with Rob. It inspired me to try. I am 62 years old and retired in March 2022. I was working too much, was not is shape and figured out it was time to look after my physical condition. After almost 10 months of training with Rob, I can only say good things. He is very knowledgeable and make sure I train properly to avoid injuries. It has been one of my best decisions and I continue to train with him. He motivates me and helps me add quality days and months to my life expectancy. ~ Jacques P

I would highly recommend Rob as a personal trainer for your fitness, health and nutrition needs. Rob has been consistent with his work and professionalism in the health and fitness for as long as I can remember (10+ years). He stays current and relevant with health and fitness knowledge, especially when we live in a digital era. You have the option of training online or in-person. Rob is great to have as a trainer if you are wanting to be challenged while feeling good and safe doing your program, he is the guy. When you stick with your program and discipline, the results are rewarding and worth it. ~ Holly H

About 10 months ago, I’d hit a wall with my training as I was barely improving in strength and had uninspired workout routines. So, I decided to find a trainer and after looking extensively I decided to start training with Rob. I knew from our initial conversation that he was someone that understood my pain points and how to remove them, and would work hard with me to achieve my goals. Rob didn’t start me with the biggest weights or the most intense routines, instead he realized quickly through my movement that my biggest issues stemmed from my lack of mobility and flexibility. That’s where we started and I quickly saw improvements, and within a few months I was able to properly do exercises I never could before. After 10 months, my health is the best it's ever been, and I’ve achieved all my goals pertaining to strength and weight. Rob has always been professional, understanding, and patient. Also, I always look forward to our sessions because I have fun with the great conversation and interesting workout routines. ~ Sunny D

I’ve started working out with Rob two months ago. A friend of mine recommended him. I was pretty skeptical at first because I didn’t have good experiences with trainers. I am 50 and not all trainers know how to train age appropriate. He is an amazing trainer, understands and works with my needs and has been able to improve my resistance and posture but most importantly, he brought back my love for exercising . His classes are fun and creative and I never get bored. I’m even boxing now and loving it! Thank you Rob for the work you do!!!! ~ Monica M

Rob is the best. I went to him with a persistent issue in my right shoulder, and he was able to quickly assess what was going on and tailor a plan that actually made a difference. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and he really watches your form and adjusts things in a way that feels both safe and effective. After working with him, my shoulder feels significantly better and more stable. If you’re dealing with an injury or just want someone who really understands the body, I’d highly recommend Rob. ~ Hailey C

Rob is everything I want in a trainer, methodical and science based. Rob takes a holistic approach from your diet, your goals, factors in past/current injuries and builds a clear, achievable plan. Rob adapts when required and tweaks when necessary. Its been over a year now and training continues to be fun and results driven. I am amazed on the progress, Rob has somehow kept me motivated achieving my fitness and movement goals! Rob knows his S#$%t ~ Dale T

Robs vast knowledge and experience dealing with such a large variety of individuals is why he shines in a sea of trainers. He builds what works for YOU, and is one of the best individually motivating people I have ever trained with. This man can trail-mark the path to your goals, whether it is rehab or athleticism (or both), buckle up because your life will change for the better if you give him your trust. 10/10 best trainer I have ever worked with. ~ Reese W

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Rob for both personal training and as PT Coach, and the experience has always been top-notch. He is an exceptional communicator who is incredibly thorough in his approach. As a client, he didn't just give me a workout; he took the time to fix my form and truly improve the way I train. Beyond the technical side, he’s a natural leader, who builds your confidence every session. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to level up their fitness or pt. ~ Mike N

Rob is an exceptional personal trainer whose extensive knowledge in fitness, health, and nutrition truly sets him apart. His supportive yet firm approach creates a motivating environment, ensuring I push my limits safely. I’m consistently impressed by his use of technology to monitor progress and adjust routines, preventing any plateaus in my training. Beyond being a dedicated professional, Rob's fun personality makes every session enjoyable and keeps me accountable on my fitness journey. ~ Cameron P

Rob is an extremely knowledgeable trainer who genuinely tailors his approach to each client. After years of dealing with knee injuries, I struggled to train consistently, but Rob’s attention to detail and focus on proper mechanics helped me rebuild strength without aggravating my injuries. Thanks to his coaching, I was able to make real progress and reach my fitness goals.. Highly recommend working with him. ~ Kyle

I’ve been working with Rob for a while now here in Vancouver, and the results speak for themselves. His knowledge of biomechanics and programming is top-tier. He doesn't just give you a workout; he explains the 'why' behind every movement, which has helped me stay injury-free and consistently hit new PRs. If you’re looking for a PT who is professional, punctual, and genuinely invested in your progress, Rob is your guy. ~ David G

I had such a great experience training with him! He really helped me push to my limits without overdoing it. Its thanks to Rob that I was able to rebuild my confidence! He had amazing advice to share, I’ve always been nervous to have a personal trainer for some reason but I felt completely comfortable and at ease during every session. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a supportive and knowledgeable trainer!! ~ oceanne b

I trained with Rob after taking a three year break from the gym. I had really specific goals around mobility and joint issues and Rob tailored each session to ensure those were a priority. He always had creative ways to keep me focused and having fun and was generally a great human to be around. He’s really knowledgeable and on top of new research in the health field. Definitely recommend training with Rob! ~ Patricia S

Training with Rob has been a great experience for me. He’s supportive, motivating, and tailors workouts to your goals. I’ve struggled with lower back pain and he’s been really good at putting me through exercises that help strengthen the muscles around it while still getting a great workout. I’ve definitely gotten stronger and more confident since training with him. Highly recommend! ~ Adrian D

Rob has exceeded my expectations. I really appreciate his experience and ability to make each session feel customized and tailored to my specific needs. The workouts we have been doing have allowed me to grow in strength and improve my mobility all while protecting an injury until my surgery date. One of the best decisions I made was joining Rob’s program. ~ Shawn S

I was referred to Rob by someone who worked with him locally in Vancouver and who loved his approach. I worked with him remotely and used the app which was easy to follow. Rob is very personable and catered the exercises to suit my specific needs based on my weekly progress. He took the time to explain the exercises and how they worked. Overall it was a pleasant experience working with him. ~ Myrna R

Rob is amazing, knowledgeable and professional. He was my first PT and totally helped me transform my body and achieve my fitness goals! He works with you to tailor a workout that is challenging, yet achievable and fun. I’ve been seeing him for almost 4 years now and look forward to our weekly workouts! ~ Diana C

Rob truly is outstanding! His support has inspired me to return to exercising and hit the gym again. I really appreciate his professionalism; he's always punctual and follows up on my meal plan and progress. His encouragement means so much to me as I strive to reach my personal goals and maintain a healthy lifestyle. ~ Milagros D
