What to expect with our training programs

Assessment First

We start by understanding where you are. Your movement patterns, training history, and what's held you back before. No workout until we have a plan.

Custom Programming

Every session is built for you. Your program adapts based on how you're recovering, what's working, and the progress you're making week to week.

Progress Tracking

We track your lifts, measurements, and how you feel so you can actually see what's changing. No guessing—just data and steady improvement.

“Excellent 1:1 personal training in East Vancouver. Fair pricing, a positive and supportive environment. Strong focus on injury prevention and proper form. Rob is knowledgeable and attentive, making it ideal for anyone looking for personalized coaching in East Van rather than a big gym.”

— Matt Lang

“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

Frequently Asked Questions

  • No. I work with people at every level, from complete beginners to experienced lifters. We start where you are and progress at the pace that's right for your body.

  • In 1-on-1, you have my full attention for the entire session. In 2-on-1, you train alongside a partner—you'll still get individualized programming, but the session is shared, which makes it more affordable per person.

  • I travel throughout East Vancouver, Commercial Drive, Mount Pleasant, and surrounding neighborhoods. If you're not sure whether your location works, just ask during the consultation.

  • We'll talk about your goals, training history, and any injuries or limitations. Then we'll do a movement assessment so I can see how you move and where we need to focus. You'll leave with a clear picture of what training together looks like.

  • Most clients train 2-3 times per week. That said, Everyone’s life is different. I recommend working 1-on-1 at least once a week.
