“Great new location is more spacious and more zen!”
“usually never write reviews on public forums, but I felt compelled to do so because David is authentic, honest, and delivers results.”
“He answered all of my questions patiently and with extensive knowledge in weight loss and corrective training.”
“Unique space - great service”
BEST IN NYC. I recently finished the three-month nutrition program with Dave and plan on beginning fitness training with him this summer. I must say that everything you hear or read about Dave is absolutely true; believe the hype! Not only did I lose weight, but I have a much better relationship with food. Dave’s extensive and impressive knowledge of how food affects the body and his personable demeanor make him a phenomenal trainer who will set you on the right path towards a healthier lifestyle. I’m looking forward to training with Dave this summer and urge anyone who is even remotely interested in checking out Physique to run, not walk, to the studio. The sooner you do, the sooner you’ll start to feel like a new you!…
The absolute best..
After three months working with David, I have signed up for another six. No, I don't have frivolous money to spend; quite simply, he has quickly proven to be an invaluable investment. Just as "July
Baby" said it earlier, he is the master of changing bodies (and minds).
David is not your typical trainer, so much so I don't like calling him that. A blend of trainer, wise sage, nutritional spiritualist, anatomical guru-- whatever you call him, he's nothing but down-to-earth, caring, and completely focused and committed to making you the best version of yourself inside and out.
In three months, my body has really changed. My friends, colleagues and family have taken notice. I have referred many people to David based on the results they've seen.
I would even say I work out LESS now. After David honed in on some cardio, weight training and nutritional issues, everything took care of itself- even stubborn complaints I never thought I could change.
It has been such a surprising educational journey with him. I thought I knew a lot; I have been active most of my life and have followed health and nutrition as a hobby. But he takes his mastery of the human body and nutrition to a whole new level. Other "trainers" just don't have the deep, intuitive skill that I have witnessed with David.
I also shared with David a systemic allergy that I had suffered from for over six years- aquagenic pruritus. Doctors and allergists are relatively baffled- no one knows how to recommend finding relief. After a close inspection on my health and nutritional habits he put me on a food plan and within 30 days I had no symptoms, even during the most difficult months, summer. When no doctor was able to help me, David looked at the issue holistically and followed his instincts to a nutritional issue and he was right- thank god.
Above all, David is that person that you will come to for help in one area-- and he will help you-- but he will also open your eyes to things you never knew you needed but, in the end, may have needed more than your original point of action.
Love love LOVE, David!…
** The Number One New York Trainer **. David is a master of changing bodies. He is always intensively focused on you when you work with him. If you want real and measurable results, I highly recommend David and Physique.
New York's Best Trainer.
David, the owner of Physique, is absolutely the best trainer I've ever had. I sought out his help as soon as I moved to New York, partly to beat the winter blues and get in better shape, but mostly
as a last-ditch effort to alleviate chronic back pain. Similar to the other CitySearch reviews here, I was impressed with the 5-star rating and glowing commentary, so despite my general "cheapskateness", I signed up for a 6-week commitment looking at it as an investment. At the first consultation, I could tell that David was passionate about wellness and looked at health beyond just the surface-level of weight.
David helped me build stronger muscles and taught me stretches that delivered the relief from back pain I had been desperately seeking. I lost weight and fit back in my old jeans in no time. Thanks to his HLC classes, I also improved my diet and stress management, which was incredibly valuable as I started a new job in a new city and undertook the task of wedding planning. David is so much more than trainer: he's your partner in health, helping you patiently and thoroughly investigate and understand your body, diet, lifestyle and all things related to wellness. I look at working out there like a mini-vacation: the studio is a zen-like get-away from the bustle of the city, the stretching and exercise take your mind off your daily stresses, and when you leave, you leave in a good mood. (You’ll be shocked how fast the hour flies by).
My first six weeks came and went… that was almost five months ago, and I'm too happy with the results to quit anytime soon. Run, don't walk, to Physique (and be sure to take the stairs...they get easier.).…
He'll make you feel brand new, change will inspire you.
Here's the truth: I'm a 18 year old high schooler who didn't want to go train with some old, unentertaining, snooze fest of a guy (or girl). So i was hesitant but Dave and I really hit it off. He's
sarcastic, witty, knowledgeable, fit (because I hate trainers who aren't in shape/toned), etc. I trained at Physique for a month, twice a week, and within 2 weeks I saw results. Now I know that sounds like one of those weight loss program commercials but cliches are the best way to explain it. My problem area was and still is my hips and my legs. I'm not saying that now I'm perfect with no effort put into it because I'm forced to still do the workouts that he gave me now that I'm no longer in NY, but at least I have some direction now. he enlightened me on the right foods to consume in accompaniment with my exercise routine. I run cross country and play lacrosse but that cardio is just not enough. It is also because of Dave and Physique that I am now more aware of the high risk I am at in terms of tearing my ACL and am currently working to decrease that risk. Ultimately, LA Fitness just doesn't compare. So THANK YOU DAVE for everything and i know that you're just a phone call away if I need any support, encouragement, or tips.
Sincerely,
Heather…
