  • "For anyone new to working out or just looking to feel better both physically and mentally, Hugo is your man. I had knee issues and tendinitis/tennis elbow and he was able to simplify things so I can better understand what's wrong and how to fix it almost instantly. I had previously gone to a physical therapist and they were telling me all the scientific names for it and the exercises were so specific and complicated for a newbie that I wasn't even sure if I was doing it right until I met Hugo. He is VERY knowledgeable, positive and patient. I've done exercises I didn't think I could and I've gained more muscle than I thought I ever could. A big bonus: for all my adult life I couldn't put my hair up in a ponytail or bun because it'll cause a migraine and my doctor actually told me, its just how it is for some people, just like my tendonitis is chronic (it's not). Hugo suggested increasing my iron intake, so I took supplements and lo and behold, I can actually put my hair up now without any issues. I couldn't believe it. He has helped me be physically stronger which in turn, made me mentally stronger than when I first started. I even have more energy in the day. So to anyone struggling mentally and looking to take the first step to apply yourself, I highly recommend Hugo on your team."

  • "Training with Hugo has been truly transformative. Before I began training with him I felt unsure of myself at the gym, stuck in the same routine, and unsure how to reach my goals. But with Hugo's guidance, everything has shifted. He's incredibly knowledgeable and every session feels like a chance to learn, push my limits, and ultimately become a better version of myself. His passion, professionalism, and dedication to helping his clients succeed is inspiring. Working with Hugo has provided me with the tools to succeed in my fitness goals inside and outside of the gym. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and committed trainer who is deeply invested in seeing you become the best version of yourself--he's your guy!"

  • "It's daunting for someone who works a desk job and who hasn't exercised regularly for years to seek out personal training, but I hit the lottery jackpot with Hugo. Never have I felt ashamed or embarrassed about my capabilities while working with him. In fact, Hugo's keen eye, emphasis on proper warmups and forms, incredibly expansive knowledge on how to take care of the body to keep it at peak performance, and much more solidifies him as one of the best in the business to train with. Everytime I go I am energized not only by the workouts, but by how much I know Hugo truly cares to see his clients grow. There are times when I can't do a certain exercise due to the limitations of my capabilities, but Hugo will ALWAYS keep a smile on his face, talk about how good a try it is, and adjust the exercise so it fits more with what you can do. He pushes and encourages, but never to an excessive degree, and it has helped tremendously in shaping me up both physically and mentally. I can with 100% certainty that training and getting to know Hugo has been one of the best things to have happened to me!"

  • "I have been working out with Hugo for the past six months now, and he is without a doubt one of the nicest, most patient people I have ever met. Whenever the workouts are difficult, and I feel like I can not keep going, he always encourages me to just keep trying. At those times where my body does give out, and I can't keep going, he is so understanding and helps me recover. Before Hugo, I would walk in the gym and have no idea where to start. I did not realize that what I had been doing was completely wrong from what I needed. With Hugo, I have increased my strength in ways I could not imagine, I have gained lean muscle, I have learned how to eat/workout properly, and most importantly I have learned how to feel amazing about myself again. I thank Hugo with all my heart, and I could not ask for a better personal trainer!"

  • "I have been training with Hugo since mid March of 2023. I've had experiences in the past with personal trainers that left me at times feeling hopeless. I had done some research, read through at least 30+ reviews of Hugo's clients and decided to reach out! I can honestly say that I'm so happy I didn't completely give up hope on personal training. Hugo is a true gem in this industry and is such a pleasure to work with. He challenges you, motivates you, and treats every session as if it's your first. His attention to detail, his professionalism, and his commitment to his clients definitely doesn't go unnoticed. I feel grateful to be working with Hugo as one of his clients, and truly enjoy every training session- even though it sucks sometimes! :) I look forward to continuing my fitness journey with him!"

  • "I came across Hugo's Yelp page earlier this year. After reading several reviews, I gave him a call and set up a meeting. I was immediately impressed with his professionalism and knowledge in his field. And our journey began... Hugo was able to connect with me in a way that made my training sessions feel as if I'm working out with a buddy rather than going to a grueling gym session. He's understanding, quick to make slight adjustments to make you feel comfortable and incredibly patient when explaining each portion of your workout circuit. I'm proud to say I've lost over 65 lbs and several inches during my journey with Hugo. Partnering with Hugo was the best decision I made."
