Brian Donovan

“After working with several trainers over the years, I was extremely fortunate to start working with Brian Donovan.  Brian truly listened to my fitness goals and developed a very customized program for me. His nutrition advice was invaluable and in combination with the exercise regime, I was able to make quick and noticeable results. In fact, many friends commented on the changes they saw which validated that I had finally found the right trainer. Brian and I set monthly goals and he helped with both exercise and nutrition modifications to help me reach these goals.

When I started with Brian, my body fat was around 18%. With his program, I was able to bring that down to as low as 11% and also add a significant amount of muscle. I have been very impressed with Brian’s no drama passion for his clients and his work. He is very knowledgeable and eager to help solve any issue you may be addressing on your way to achieving your fitness goals. Working with Brian has been the best investment I’ve ever made.”

“Brian is ‘THE GO TO’ for training and nutritional coaching. Since working with Brian I have lost 30 pounds. Not only that but my confidence is up and I look forward to going to the gym now!”

– Jason St. John

“Brian knows his stuff. I’ve worked with him for over 7 years with great results. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for expert guidance and coaching for weight loss and nutrition.”

– Rick Ingram

“This guy is really the best. He has motivated me to work out, something I never did before. I’ve been with him for nearly 5 years, through my single days, he kept me healthy during my pregnancy, and now he’s whipped me back into shape and helped me take off my 40 lbs. pregnancy weight less than a year since Riley was born. I cannot recommend him enough!”

– Lindsey Kach

“Had it not been for me finding you, I am 100% sure that I would still be 315 pounds right now. Or actually, I’d probably be 350 pounds by now.”

– Dave Melody

“I was with my fantastic trainer Brian Donovan for 6 years. What began as a quest for weight loss became so much more … increased strength, fitness and wellbeing, and most of all, the confidence and courage to push through the hard stuff – physical and otherwise – and be better for it. Our final session ended as our first one did – with burpees! But these pics (images not shown) would have never happened six years ago because 1). I couldn’t do any of this stuff and 2.) I wouldn’t have allowed the photos. That’s the best testimonial I can give Brian – today I am always happy to #GetInThePicture! It’s such a gift. Thank you so much, Brian, for everything. You are making a difference!”

– Karen Forsling

“I selected Brian Donovan as my coach because he holds two of the most advanced personal training certifications and has a great, low-key but encouraging, demeanor.

During the time I have worked with Brian, I have reached and exceeded my weight loss, body fat, and flexibility goals. Every workout with him has been customized to my unique fitness goals and challenges. I was born with back problems and Brian is great about adapting the exercises for my specific needs. I’ve been working with him for over two years and have never had an injury.

In addition, Brian is great about keeping up with the latest fitness and nutrition news and studies and always shares helpful tips for me to incorporate into my daily routine.

I highly recommend Brian for anyone seeking a trainer. Whatever your needs and goals, he will develop a program for you that WORKS, and you’ll have fun along the way because he has a great personality.”

“I love my Personal Trainer. I am VERY particular about Trainers. I always pick one by watching them work with their clients. I assess the results of their clients and their own personal results. A Trainer needs to look like a trainer. Brian is one of the best. He is not a chatter box. He is quietly effective and he means business. He focuses on your form, pushes you tirelessly, changes the workout constantly to confuse my body, and has helped me become more stable (I used to trip and fall all the time, weird, I know). My results have been the best testimonial. I have lost 30 pounds and 6 inches around the waist with Brian. My whole body has trimmed down. My whole goal was to have a more lean body, not buff or overly muscular. He tailors my workout for my needs. It is funny, because I get asked about my Trainer every few days. He truly is the best. I can’t say enough things about him. I hired Brian a year and a half ago. It’s one of the best gifts I have given to myself. I go to him 3 times a week, which I recommend.”

– Terry Ledford

“I have been training with Brian three times a week for over two years now. I like his style as he is serious about what he does, but at the same time he has patience and a great personality. This combination makes for a motivating workout. I also like the fact that he offers a varied workout regimen so my body can get ‘shocked” each time we work out. Over the last 7 months I have dropped 20 pounds and lost 7% body fat! If you are in the market for a trainer, look no further!”
– David Hilst

“I’ve been seeing Brian for 4 months now and have lost 16 pounds. Those are results that speak for themselves but there’s more to the story. Brian is extremely knowledgeable and educates as well as encourages. He isn’t the “in your face” trainer some would expect, but rather someone that encourages and supports as one makes the journey to meet their goals. He’s flexible with scheduling and has monthly competitions amongst clients to help keep things fun. Workouts are varied in style and intensity as to keep your body from getting too used to any one particular movement. I would highly recommend him to anyone that is serious about getting into great shape. Be willing to make a commitment and work hard but it will pay off!”
