“I trained with Robert at Better Bodies in Kitsilano for over a year. He's the kind of trainer who actually listens to what you need and adjusts on the fly. I came in with some nagging shoulder issues and he worked around them while still pushing me to get stronger. No ego, no nonsense, just solid coaching.”
— Daniel Crough
“Working with Robert has been one of the best decisions I've ever made for my health. I was apprehensive that this type of training wouldn't be for me but he is he incredibly knowledgeable, builds well-designed workouts, and I can't believe how much stronger and healthier I feel. I would highly highly recommend.”
- Amy Pelletier
“Joining Coast Athletics for personal training was the best health decision I have made as an adult. Robert is an incredibly knowledgeable trainer with a great attitude. He took care to understand my current limitations/pain points and carefully structured our sessions to rebuild strength and mobility that moved me away from potential injuries while improving my capabilities in the gym. Highly recommended!”
— Abhishek Joshi
