"Toby is a truly excellent trainer. He is the perfect combination of tough and warm and knows just how and when to encourage and when to push, though never too much . Because of his efforts, I am stronger, I have better balance and most importantly, working out has become fun! Thanks Tobs!"

"I'm not a big fan of the gym scene... but I wanted to get in shape and have a personal trainer. I met Toby, shared my goals, joined the stadium class and almost a year later, am much further along than I ever thought I would be especially without a gym membership!!!! While I am not as consistent as I would like, at 3 times a week for 2 consecutive months when I'm good, I lost a few inches and dropped 2 dress sizes!!

I love the open air, conquering the stadium steps... Squats... squats!!! More squats...and the manageable class size. I can chat if I want or zone out and sweat! He is very attentive and knowledgeable. Even makes exercise adjustments for persons with injuries. Hate the wheel of death but, at least can do it now!! For those of you intimidated by the gym scene and heavy weights, this is perfect for you."

"I started my journey to a healthier me in Oct 2012, having made the decision that I was tired of being overweight. I also felt that at 46 years, hypertensive and on medication for about 15 years, I needed to pay more attention to my health. I joined teamdbA and started the training sessions. I was amazed at how much I enjoyed the sessions and the structure of the training, which was challenging without being a struggle. A year and a half later and I'm still bereft when I have to miss a session.

A benefit that I did not anticipate, was that within a period of just over 3 weeks, though I had not lost weight, my blood pressure was unusually normal without medication. There was mild fluctuation for a couple months, but with consistent training I achieved an overall weight loss of 20lbs and for the past year+ my blood pressure has been consistently in the normal range.

The dynamics of our Jackson Sq team is awesome, and the Rasta Demon as I affectionately call teamdbA's trainer, keeps us motivated and challenged to put in the work and get it done!"

"I worked with dbA for about 2 years and have always been impressed with his understanding of strength and conditioning and his ability to explain the importance of the exercise routine. As a national athlete I need to be comfortable knowing that my trainer is on top his game. DBA...is on top of his game and has helped me in my progress."
