He takes the time to correct our technique and make sure we're in good shape so the exercises are effective and safe. Great energy and excellent support!

Excellent coach! I wanted to start training but didn't know where to begin, and Julian was a fantastic guide. He explains the movements very clearly, the muscles targeted by the exercises, and the nutrition that goes with them to help me reach my goals. The workouts are varied and, most importantly, adapted to my energy level at each session, which I really appreciate!

Working with Julien has been a game changer. In just two short months, I’ve already seen noticeable physical changes and meaningful improvements in posture issues I’ve dealt with for a while amd energy. What really sets him apart is his ability to keep you motivated and show you that you have way more in the tank than you think, all while keeping form and safety front and center. More than just great workouts, he’s helped me build a consistent, lasting fitness habit. I can't recommend enough!

My trainer for a while because I moved, but wow, he really knows his stuff! Funny, thoughtful, and he takes the time to explain the exercises clearly, what you should feel, and focuses on self-improvement. Unlike my previous experiences, he listens to your needs and suggests solutions based on you, without pushing you into ideologies that don't fit your lifestyle. I'm going to miss him. I recommend him a million times over! He's worth his weight in gold.

Great coach , it’s a pleasure to work with him. Amazing energy , very funny and communicates very clearly. I was exhausted after the sessions, but I never felt pushed too far. Be careful when he picks up the small dumbbells, I learned to fear those exercises the most .🙂.

I've always been a very shy person when it came to working out in front of others. But with Julian I've always felt comfortable and confident! I highly recommend Julian as a trainer. He always has a big smile on his face, he's very kind and super friendly. Julian always manages to encourage me to push my limits, and I surprise myself after each of our sessions. He's really talented in his job and completely dedicated. Thanks to him, I've managed to get the results I wanted! I've never been very motivated to go to the gym, but every time I went with Julian, it was pleasant and much more motivating for me. It's like working out with a best friend! In short, best trainer ever, I recommend him 100%!!!

Excellent personal trainer ! He really knows how to adjust routines to meet personal goals and make up for specific weaknesses. Very good at breaking down each movement and correcting mistakes to avoid injuries. A great choice if you are starting out the gym for the first time or even if you already have some experience! Also great at tracking progress at the gym but also in terms of nutrition. A lot of positive reinforcement but also pertinent feedback on each session.

Julian Minvielle - Personal Trainer : What can be said about him? Well many things... For one thing he is a very patient trainer... I should know.. I have been his client now for the past 6 + years and I have been on this fitness journey struggling with myself and my life. He has been tolerant with my schedule as I work 3 jobs and try to find time somewhere in my day to workout. He is available for support, advice and encouragement. He is honest and to the point when it comes to getting you back on track. He cares about his clients and it shows in his dedication and persistence in wanting the best for you. He a respectful and committed trainer who wants you to succeed.

Julian has been extremely helpful. I have lost 15 pounds in 2 months. I am a novice at the gym and Julian is always there whenever I have questions regarding how to do an exercise or why I am doing it. If there's an issue he will give me an alternative exercise instead. Regarding nutrition, I am now eating more then before when I tried to eat healthy in my own. He's helped me understand macros which I've never done before. I am able to stick with it because I am still allowed to indulge on occasions and nothing is completely eliminated from my diet. I just have to be mindful of what and how much of anything I am consuming. I highly recommend Julian if you're looking to get results.

When I talk about my coach with my friends, I always think of this quote: “Motivation gets you started. Habit keeps you going.” You can be sure that with a coach like Juss, you'll stay motivated and the results will follow. Attentive, responsive, and incredibly kind, he helped me rediscover the desire to balance both my mind and body. Having been inactive, I constantly felt tired and uncomfortable in my own skin. Despite my fear of injury (I have a spinal fracture), I got back into sports thanks to his encouragement. I learned to eat differently, and thanks to my routine, I feel fantastic. My loved ones have noticed me becoming more cheerful and energetic, and I only get tired if I overdo it with exercise.

Julian has been extremely patient and reassuring during my journey with him, and I could immediately see how much effort he put into each nutrition and workout plan. He follows up regularly without fail and takes the time to explain the body's processes while he does so, something that only a certified PT and nutritionist can do. He won't tell you to quit carbs and jump on the cardio, because he thinks of your mental well-being too, and knows that such a strict routine will only make you miserable and you will lose your progress very quickly if you revert to your normal habits. He's trustworthy and practises what he preaches too!
