I originally joined Core Fitness when I moved to Miami, after having put on a lot of extra weight living in the Midwest. I had never done personal training and was anxious about getting back into the gym, but the smaller 1 on 1 setup at Core Fitness helped set me at ease so I could focus on learning and getting the results I wanted. Kenny helped me transform myself physically in a way I honestly didn’t think was possible. I feel better, look better, and understand my own fitness better than I ever have. I would recommend Kenny, Andy, and the entire crew at Core Fitness to anyone who wants to make a difference for themselves.

Love love Core fitness! The best place to workout in Miami! They literally helped me transform my body, one of the things I miss the most since moving away. If you are looking for the best in the business ask for my guy Kenny! He went from being a trainer to a friend!

I’ve had a great experience at Core Fitness! The owner, Andy, creates such a welcoming and positive environment from the moment you walk in. You can tell he genuinely cares about the members and the atmosphere of the gym. My trainer, Derek, has been fantastic — knowledgeable, motivating, and attentive to proper form and personalized goals. He pushes me to improve while making every workout enjoyable and challenging. If you’re looking for a friendly gym with professional guidance and a supportive community, I highly recommend Core Fitness!

I started training at Core Fitness Miami a little under two years ago, during one of the most vulnerable and challenging seasons of my life. I was just two months postpartum after a C-section, trying to navigate healing, motherhood, and my own identity all at the same time. Physically, I was dealing with severe abdominal separation, and mentally, I felt disconnected from the version of myself I used to know. I didn’t feel strong. I didn’t feel confident. I didn’t feel like me. Finding Andy and Core Fitness Miami changed everything. From the very first session, Andy met me exactly where I was, not where I thought I should be, not where anyone else expected me to be, but where I truly was. He never made me feel broken or behind. Instead, he made me feel capable, seen, and supported. He understood that rebuilding strength after childbirth isn’t just physical, it’s emotional. It’s deeply personal. It’s layered. He helped me rebuild my body safely and intentionally, but even more importantly, he helped me rebuild my confidence and belief in myself. Every session became something I genuinely looked forward to. He made me laugh on days when I felt exhausted. He listened. He encouraged me. He challenged me in ways that made me stronger without ever making me feel pressured or judged. He celebrated every win with me, no matter how small, and made me proud of myself at times when I didn’t think I had anything to be proud of. What stands out most is how he treats me with the same level of respect, attention, and belief as the seasoned and celebrated athletes he trains. I was just a postpartum mom trying to find her way back to herself, and yet he never treated me as anything less than strong, capable, and deserving of that same level of care. That meant more to me than I can put into words. Another incredible part of my experience was the relationship between Core Fitness Miami and Fox Physical Therapy right next door. I was able to receive pelvic floor therapy and specialized treatment for my diastasis recti, and Andy worked in collaboration with them to incorporate that healing into my workouts. That level of communication and care created a seamless and safe recovery process that I know accelerated my healing and progress. It made me feel like I had an entire team supporting me, not just a trainer. Andy didn’t just help me get my body back. He helped me discover a new version of myself. A stronger version. A more confident version. A version that had gone through something life-changing and came out the other side feeling empowered. He is truly one of the best trainers I’ve ever worked with, but beyond that, he is one of the best humans I’ve ever had the privilege of knowing. His kindness, patience, encouragement, and genuine care for his clients is something rare. He creates an environment where you feel safe, valued, and believed in, regardless of where you’re starting from. I will forever be grateful for the role he played in my healing journey, not just physically, but emotionally. He helped me through a time when I felt uncertain and disconnected, and he helped guide me back to strength, confidence, and myself. Core Fitness Miami is more than just a gym. It’s a place where people are supported, empowered, and transformed. Andy is not just my trainer, he is someone who has made a lasting impact on my life, and someone I will always consider a friend. I cannot recommend him or Core Fitness Miami enough. I am endlessly grateful, and I hope his business continues to grow and thrive, because the work he does truly changes lives.
