Tony and I discussed my goals 1:1, he was honest, full of information an obvious subject matter expert. His attention to detail is extremely impressive. It became easy to trust Tony in a short period of time. With Tony’s guidance, nutrition and lifestyle changes I made, I have lost 26 pounds and a full clothing size. I am now addicted to fitness, both physically and mentally. If it were not for Tony, I would have probably given up by now. He is a true motivator in every sense of the word. His patience and pleasant demeanor are also of note. When I reached a plateau, he pushed me harder and saw me through it….. he went above and beyond to the extent of ensuring outside of the gym that I was okay and feeling good. A true professional in his field. - Cindi W., Personal Training Client

I cannot tell you the difference working with Tony has made for me! His BOOT CAMP AT VIRGINIA THERAPY AND FITNESS IS AWESOME!!! He is concientious and attentive in our sessions. Eventho’ he encourages me to push myself, he is also mindful of my physical limitations. He combines a knowledgeable balance of what I need to do to attain my goals w/o hurting myself. I look forward (sort of) to every session.
Tony is awesome, he really pushes you to the max during the bootcamp workouts and keeps you engaged with constantly switching up the routine. I have not worked out in a very long time and Tony takes the time to alter the drills based on the fitness level of each individual, making the group session beneficial for everyone in the class. Bottom line, Tony is great at what he does and I highly recomend him.
Tony is great! Boot camp is both challenging and effective. Every class is different so you are never bored. Tony assesses any injuries you may have and modifies the workouts to your level. So even if you have previous injuries you can still do this class and see results.
Tony is one cool dude. I’ve worked out with several trainers one-on-one and my session with Tony was different and fun! While the session was hard, I enjoyed it because I was incorporating new moves into my regimen. You have to try working out with Tony!
I’ve worked with Tony in both the boot camp setting and also doing personal training for the last month and am hooked! Not only do I enjoy the custom workouts tailored to my goals but have also enjoyed the group workouts — he makes us work but we have a lot of fun! Not only do I feel better already but I also have more energy and focused fitness goals.
Can’t rave enough about Tony! Boot camp classes and my personal training sessions with him have really stepped up my game. I am a competitive aerial athlete and dance instructor so I have to be elite shape. Tony has really helped me take my fitness goals to the next level. He works me out with an intense program suited for my ability and constantly keeps me engaged with a new routine. I have more energy, focus, better sleeping & eating habits all from a few good hours during the week of exercise. Tony’s a great motivator and is always encouraging to help me reach my full potential! I feel great! Thanks Tony!
Tony is kicking my butt – in a very good way! He offers great group workouts that are fun, rewarding and keep me coming back for more. He ensures everyone in the group is working to the level they are personally comfortable with and pushes those that want to go the extra mile. I love the personal touch he gives. I look forward to his classes and the challenge he provides.
Tony’s boot camp classes have been an answered prayer. I had always hoped I could join some kind of group training session that is still designed to help you reach your individual goals. And here we have it, right here at the Virginia Therapy & Fitness Center. It’s been convenient for me to have it right after work but now with his workouts, I feel it targeting areas that I’ve never been able to work out before. So I can see my fitness goals to be even more attainable. Thanks Tony! You da man!
