Precision Personal Training- Miami

"I first contacted PPT via another review site and quickly heard back from Marlon, the owner. After a brief chat, we scheduled a call to go over my goals, stats, and the options available at PPT. I agreed to come in for a free 1-hour assessment with him to determine a baseline for my capabilities, strength, heart rate, etc. I opted for a 45-minute session 2x a week. (For once, I chose not to go 0-100 in the blink of an eye.) He sent me home after that workout with a sheet to track my food and beverage intake for the next week and advised me to go for walks even if my legs felt sore to keep moving. The next week, I started training with Martha 2x per week. I gave her a recap of my workout with Marlon the previous week and how long it took me to recover. She gave me some tips for things to do after workouts to help with recovery, and as Marlon had done over the weekend, she would text me to check in over the next few days to see how I was doing and if anything hurt (a thing she still does 10 months later). One thing I found helpful at the start of my training was going over my meal tracker with her each week and getting advice on reading the nutritional info label and what to watch out for when buying meals and snacks. At first, I'd take pics of what I ate and their nutritional labels and then show them to her at my next session or text them. Being a vegetarian, I was glad that not only had she respected my choice, but she'd also suggested other brands/items for me to try and never tried to discourage me from being vegetarian. A month later, I increased my sessions to 3x per week for 45 mins since my healing time was improving, and then 3x per week for an hour. There's even been the occasional 4th session in a week when I'm feeling extra energetic and slightly overconfident. I'm no stranger to coming in saying I want to try a workout I saw on social media... and later regretting it (who invented split squats AND WHY?!). Martha is great at determining what workouts will help you reach your goals and modifying a workout on the fly if something hurts or you're injured. She's also good at knowing when you're ready to increase the weights you're using. Martha's methods worked so well that the results in my first 3 months convinced my husband to sign up for training, too. Now, we train together as a small group with Martha 3x per week. She's immensely knowledgeable about fitness and creative with the workouts to keep it from feeling redundant. I've noticed many changes over the last 10 months that aren't just physical, and I can attribute those changes to Martha's knowledge and training. Walking nearly 200,000 steps all over Spain and not feeling it in my legs and feet as I did on other trips was a very nice bonus! Overall, I'm happy with PPT and Martha and am glad I was paired up with her! She's kind, funny, direct, gives good and clear instructions, and has a great attitude. I wholeheartedly recommend this gym and Martha. PPT has various options for you to choose from that vary in workout frequency and length of session, as well as kids and teens group classes, women's group classes, and individual or small group options so there's something for everyone. I had PPT bookmarked for years, and I'm glad I worked up the nerve to reach out for more info!"

"My 14 year old son has been training with Chris for over a year and we have noticed a change in his confidence and overall outlook. He chooses to eat healthier and has become disciplined with his workout routine. If you are a parent of teens, we recommend Precision and Chris to make fitness fun and engaging for your children."

"I have been training with Chris for about 5 month. He is a great coach. He constantly raises the bar, monitors your form, and challenges your weak spots. I have seen my strength grow significantly! Chris is very personable and a great communicator. If you are looking for a great little community gym with a personal touch, this is the place and Chris is your guy."

Chris has been my trainer for most years, and I would never change it up. He is disciplined, timely, motivating, and never settles which keeps me excited for each session. Even on those days where the gym is the last place you want to be - he brings the spirit and boost you need to keep going.
