Personal Training in San Francisco That Adapts to You, Gym, Outdoors, or Travel.
“Julian and I worked together for the better part of three years. When I met him I had a bum knee, couldn't run, and was in an awful headspace. In the first six months I dropped ~20lbs, in the following eighteen I put on ~15lbs of muscle. Despite going literally from couch to three hours of working out a day five days a week I was never injured at any point in those three years. Over that time Julian and I built a friendship and I learned how to take care of my body. It's been four years since I first started working with him and the spreadsheet he gave me to help me track my nutrition and workouts is still an integral part of my daily routine.
No matter what you fitness goals are, Julian can help you achieve them. Don't let his dad jokes deter you.”
“It’s too expensive.”
💡 Truth: You’re not paying for workouts—you’re investing in years of expertise, accountability, and faster results. Without a trainer, most people waste money on unused gym memberships, fad programs, or trial-and-error. A trainer helps you avoid injuries, plateauing, and months (or years) of wasted effort.
“I can just find free workouts online.”
💡 Truth: Free workouts don’t know your injuries, goals, or lifestyle. What works for someone else may be the exact thing that stalls or hurts you. A trainer personalizes your plan—like having a GPS instead of wandering with a paper map.
“I’m not fit enough yet—I should lose some weight first.”
💡 Truth: That’s like saying, “I’ll learn to swim once I can stay afloat.” Trainers meet you where you are—your current level is the starting line, not a barrier. The fastest, safest way to get fit enough is to work with someone who knows the path.
