Scott is a great trainer! Very focused on technique and form, and a great human in addition. His coaching has led me to make healthy changes in my daily life and after only a few months, meaningfully improved my squash game too.

Scott’s Essential Fitness is best in class! I’ve had gym memberships consistently throughout my life and several different trainers, nothing comes close to working with Scott. My first appointment, Scott took almost 2hrs to assess what my personal goals were - including any concerns I might have - as well as discussing my workout and nutrition history. After this initial mtg, he walked me through a number of exercises to get an accurate measurement of my strength and mobility. We also established several health calculations that are consistently monitored - e.g. visceral fat, lean body mass, body fat mass, etc. - and discussed nutritional goals, all of which he helps advise on and checks in on either daily or weekly (whatever your preference is). Scott skillfully tailors workouts to each individual helping build strength, mobility and confidence. I’ve been working with Scott for several years, my health and fitness is completely transformed. I’m in the best shape of my life thanks to Scott. Couldn’t recommend him more!

I’m extremely grateful for my time with Scott and his help on my fitness journey. Scott focuses on strong foundations of stability and mobility and builds a personal program around those. I’ve had various knee surgeries and he’s worked in specific training to help rebuild stability. Scott is extremely knowledgeable and patient and also kind and a pleasure to work with. He’s great at meeting you where you’re at and each session is tailored to you specifically. I highly recommend training with Scott!!

After dealing with multiple sports injuries for years, I found Scott while looking for a trainer focused on functional strength and mobility. Since then I’ve been seeing Scott for 1 - 2 hours every week. His commitment to his clients’ long term health and wellness is undisputed. Not only do I feel stronger but my nutrition has improved as well. He is willing to push you as hard as you want to be pushed but is also realistic about expectations and what is practical. I genuinely look forward to my sessions with him. It’s a great way to spend an hour or two on a Saturday.
