TurnFit - Vancouver Personal Trainers: Reviews
Negative experience: Owner has a poor attitude towards the working man and speaks publicly about it. Won't support a business that wishes other people harm.
We can not find you in our records that you have ever trained with us or been employed with us. Possibly you have the wrong company.
Fantastic experience: Training currently with Shirley and really enjoying it! She is incredibly knowledgeable and breaks down each exercise so I can understand and execute to its full potential. She pushes me to my limits which is what I need from a personal trainer. Nutrition wise always has suggestions and recipes to hit my daily macros and always responds to any questions I may have. Highly recommend training with Shirley.
Thank you for your fantastic review, Eoghan! We're thrilled to hear that you're enjoying your training sessions with Shirley and finding her guidance valuable. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we appreciate your trust in our team. Keep up the great work!
Fantastic experience: I worked with Shirley Truong at Turnfit and lost 10lbs! Shirley is extremely knowledgeable and fun to work with. After every workout, I feel strong and motivated! She has helped me improve my posture, get stronger, and learn how to eat healthier. I’m so glad I got to train with Shirley and highly recommend training with her!
Thank you for sharing your experience, Allison! We're thrilled to hear about your progress with Shirley and your fantastic results. Her dedication and knowledge truly make a difference. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we look forward to supporting you in your fitness journey!
Fantastic experience: Training with Shirley has been an incredible experience. She is extremely knowledgeable and takes the time to explain every exercise and movement in detail, ensuring that I understand the purpose behind the exercise. Her motivation and encouragement to push me has helped me achieve more than I thought possible. I always leave each session feeling stronger and more confident, thanks to her support.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience, Manav! We're thrilled to hear that Shirley has made such a positive impact on your training. Your progress and confidence mean a lot to us, and we're here to support you every step of the way!
Fantastic experience: I have had such a positive experience at Turnfit. As someone with a long history of chronic pain and injuries, it's always daunting to begin with a new trainer. David and Shirley have been PHENOMENAL at helping me get back to it. One of the best advantages is how centralized everything is-- using an app, you get feedback and guidance on nutrition, exercise, strength, body composition, etc in addition to the in-person sessions. It helps keep me on track and it's such a holistic approach to your health and well-being. I also like how my trainer integrates physio-oriented rehab strategies into our workout routines- I feel more connected to those exercises and it's helped me build a safer and more sustainable relationship with exercise. I also feel like they really, genuinely care about you- you get check-ins, I've even gotten personal video messages from David when coping with a minor back setback. It's a place of genuine people who truly, honestly want to help you achieve your goals. 1000% recommmend!
Thank you so much, Sarah, for your amazing review! It’s been an absolute pleasure working with you, and we’re so proud of your progress. At TurnFit, we believe that personal training is more than just exercise – it’s a holistic approach to wellness. We combine personalized workouts, rehab strategies, and comprehensive support through our app to ensure you’re cared for in every aspect of your journey. Your experience is exactly what we strive to offer every client: a safe, sustainable path to better health. We’re excited to keep pushing toward your goals together!
Negative experience: They sold me on a superior service but then delivered an average one. It was difficult to give them feedback and they didn't really take accountability for mistakes that they made. (Yes, I am a client in the system under a different name)
Hi Victoria Karoline Do you go by another name as I cannot find you in our system as one of our clients?
Fantastic experience: After my first session with David, I immediately saw a difference in my posture and back pain. My muscles were less tense and I learned how to use them correctly for walking and standing. Most importantly, I was able to take a longer walk home, pain-free! I keep using his exercises regularly and it is making a huge difference. I used to take painkillers for back pain and headaches. Now, I can usually get away with exercising to make pain go away. David has a very friendly yet professional approach. He supports you when you need it and he is tough when he senses that you can push yourself further. His background knowledge of the different muscle groups and of how physical and mental health are connected is excellent.
I’m thrilled to hear about the positive changes you’ve experienced after just one session! It’s inspiring to see how effective personal training can be, not only for enhancing physical fitness but also for improving overall well-being and reducing pain. We believe in a personalized approach where each session is tailored to meet your unique needs and goals. Your success story is a great example of how we can help transform lives through dedicated and knowledgeable training. For anyone considering personal training, your experience highlights the real, tangible benefits it can offer. Whether it’s improving posture, alleviating pain, or simply enhancing general health, our trainers are here to support you every step of the way. We invite you to join us on this journey towards a healthier, stronger, and pain-free life. Let’s make your fitness goals a reality!
Fantastic experience: Some people may think they are expensive compared to others. However, the value, knowledge, expertise and how they customize everything, especially your body and needs, is unmatched. What I observed over time is the cheap option. Well, let’s say you get what you pay for. If you value your time and quality service, you can’t go wrong with TurnFit personal trainers.
Andrei, we are happy to hear that the knowledge you have gained from us in only a couple of meeting has been so valuable to you.
Fantastic experience: I loved that they showed me some pointers if I'm doing something wrong. I'm very proud that they take up the time to demonstrate the workouts. Definitely a recommended place.
Thank you Henry for trusting us as your personal trainers in Vancouver.
Fantastic experience: Shivani has been able to help my 90 year old mother to overcome her knee and back pain by recommending specific exercises for her. She is very detailed and answers questions very patiently and clearly. She is also very personable, fun and friendly. I recommend her highly! We still see her for maintenance!
We are so happy that you found and trust The TurnFit Method and that your mom is having such a great experience with Shivani You mom is such a great role model in life constantly working on improving her health.
Fantastic experience: Excellent personal trainers! I was paired with Aditi and she has helped me move towards my goals with an ease i didn't think was possible. Everything is very detailed and precise. I also needed some rehab due to muscle imbalances and lower back problems. Suffice to say neither are an issue anymore. David's always been extremely helpful whenever i needed anything or had any questions. I'll be working with them for a very long time!
Thank you for choosing The TurnFit Method, Daud! We are so happy to hear that you have had such a positive experience with your personal trainer, Aditi. She is definitely an asset to our team. We are thrilled to hear that The TurnFit Method has been able to help you overcome any muscle imbalances or back problems you were experiencing. It sounds like we are on the right track and helping our members achieve their fitness goals! Thank you for your loyalty and continued support, Daud! We look forward to working with you for many years to come.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Aditi, and more recently, Marijana for the last four months. I’ve had an excellent experience and have seen great results in strength, conditioning and aesthetics. Marijana encourages me to push myself to my limit whilst ensuring my safety and well-being. Aditi has been fantastic at ensuring I have good form and has always made sure progression has been gradual to build a great base to see maximum results.
Thank you for choosing The TurnFit Method, Dominique! We're so happy to hear that you've had an excellent experience with our trainers and have seen great results. Our trainers are passionate about helping people reach their fitness goals and we're glad to know that they've been able to do that for you. Keep up the good work!
Fantastic experience: Incredible trainers who transformed my lifestyle. Although pricey, they offer comprehensive support and I prefer the one-on-one sessions where I personally connected with my trainer (Shivani) and she paid close attention to my form and details, which I really needed to be confidently working out by myself. She took my personal limits in range of motion into consideration and designed rehab + custom workouts around them. I love her focus on functional movements, since those help my daily life as a busy healthcare professional. I now look forward to going to the gym 5+ times a week and enjoy seeing my progress. My body shape has improved significantly and so did my posture and diet. Possibly the best investment I have made for myself in my entire life.
Thank you for choosing us as your Personal Training team in Vancouver and trusting in the process of the TurnFit method. This is great feedback Miya. We are really proud of you. You have been extremely consistent on doing everything we say and it’s paying off for sure. We are happy to hear that this is the best investment you have made
Fantastic experience: This a review for the owner of Turnfit, David Turnbull. I have known him for over 10 years. When I parted ways with my fitness coach (who gave me a lot of stress), I contacted David to help me out. It was just 3 weeks before the fitness competition, which was going to be the first time for me to enter. He kindly gave me 2 options. To save my costs, it’s not a good idea for me to bring him to the competition venue, but he can support me via video when I am at the backstage. The second option was to have my picture taken by a professional photographer so that I have the pictures forever!! He gave me the contact information for the photographer, and I emailed him. However, I could still not give up as I had devoted myself to enter the competition for the last 6 months. Then, I remembered that there is a female fitness instructor who I have read about her competition experience online in David’s Facebook friends. So, I contacted her saying I am a friend of David…and explained to her about my situation. She was also very helpful and kind, and introduced her coach to me immediately. Because of this new coach, I managed to compete in the competition! I can’t say thank you enough to all of them who helped me at the last minute! I believe that good people have good connections. Thank you, David. If I had not contacted you, I would have given up everything, and I would have been very sad. You are amazing!!
Thank you for the kind words. I am very proud of you
Fantastic experience: Training is important for not only my health now, but I'm really big in prevention. I realized the things I'm doing now, and the way I'm training now will overall impact my health in the future. So by training, I'm not only having confidence in myself and how I look and how I'm feeling, but I'm also doing good for myself in the future. Before TurnFit I was very much so focused on my aesthetic goals. I still have aesthetic goals that I'm reaching with you guys. But now I'm really putting mobility at the forefront of it and functionality. And by doing that, I've noticed I've actually gotten aesthetic improvements a lot faster than I have in the past. Before I put a lot of pressure on looks. But that ultimately led to me not feeling great in the gym, whether it be injuries or sore all the time or just not being motivated to even do things that are good for me activity-wise. Now, I'm just really excited that I'm feeling this confident and excited to get in the gym, be active and have that a part of my life. And this is when I'm busiest with work and social. So the fact that we also have everything at the same time has been really great. TurnFit's accountability for me is great. At times, there are things that I know I should be doing, whether it's for my health and mobility, but again, being busy, I just might put it off, but messaging you every day, it forces me to be like, No, you have 20 minutes, you can get this done, you can send it in. It's also just nice, having a social community aspect of things too.
Sofia, thank you for your review! I am so excited to hear about all the ways that training with TurnFit is impacting your life. It's always a joy to see our members reach their goals and be healthy not just in the present but also in the future. We're so happy you found us and are part of this journey with us!
Fantastic experience: I couldn't recommend TurnFit highly enough. I was so impressed with David's extremely knowledgable background as well as his friendly approach. He really makes you feel motivated and ensures the right workouts are created for you. His app just helps keep you on target with friendly reminders and actions. The community he has established online is also so motivating if your someone like me that needs a nudge! Thanks David!
Hi Hope, thank you so much for taking the time to write this review! I'm really happy to hear that you've been able to make progress with your fitness goals. We love hearing about people like you who are committed to making their health a priority in their lives. If there's anything we can do for you in the future please reach out!
Fantastic experience: Best personal training experience period!
Thank you so much for trusting us as your personal trainers in Vancouver.
Fantastic experience: David at Turnfit showed me some great stretches that helped fix a shoulder issue I've had for years after one short consultation he knew exactly what would help and even gave me a few tips to help with my posture all with in 15 minutes ! Totally worth taking some time out of your day to meet with him you won't regret it .
Thank you Jesse for coming to see TurnFit Personal Trainers to learn more about how to optimize your health.
Fantastic experience: David Turnbull, owner of TurnFit is a key leader in his industry & profession.

His clients are consistently impressed by the Turnfit team & achieve their fitness & health goals. If you are looking for an online or in person trainer go to TurnFit.ca today!
Thank you, BNI Summit, for all your support. The givers gain mentality helped propel me to where I am today.
Fantastic experience: I am so happy I decided to get started on my fitness journey with TurnFit! I was initially apprehensive about going to a personal trainer as it was my first time meeting one. However, David was so welcoming and kind towards me that I felt comfortable sharing my experiences and concerns. I am confident that I will be able to achieve my fitness goals because I know I am getting the best guidance for my fitness goals.
Thank you for sharing this with everyone. It is extremely important to feel safe and comfortable with your personal training team. The more we learn about you the more we can grow together and get your goals accomplished faster.
Fantastic experience: I had a muscle quality test with Dave at Turnfit. I had a great experience. He explained why certain muscles may be stronger than others and showed me certain exercises to help me recover from an injury. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for some guidance when it comes to personal fitness!
Thank you for trusting us as your health experts / personal training team. If anyone is interested this is the test Michael did. https://turnfit.ca/24-point-muscle-quality-and-body-fat-assessment/ Michael if you happen to send anyone to us for the test let me know and we will hook them up with a discounted rate. And if they happen to choose us for personal training after that we have a gift for you too. Best is a three way email introduction.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend TurnFit. I was instantly impressed with David's professional yet friendly demeanour, extremely knowledgable and experienced/skill based background and accommodating attitude. The tips he gave me in just the first initial consultation have been so beneficial and I still actually do them to this day! I love his online training programs which is what I have used in the past and am using today. As a busy Mom it gives me a lot of flexibility and freedom to do what I can through out my day. Thank you David and the team at TurnFit!
Thank you for sharing this with the world. I’m sure it’s hard for people to find the right personal training team for their goals. With one of the best professionals out there saying such nice things about us will really help.
Fantastic experience: I had such an amazing experience with David from Turnfit. He was able to give me so much insightful and helpful information that I am super excited to put into practice. I am already feeling more confident and have felt a lot better in my last two work outs using his feedback to better my form and posture during my exercises. I would so highly recommend him and Turnfit just because there was a world of things I was doing wrong before that just from one session I have been able to correct a lot of my habits and be more mindful while working out.
Thank you for trusting TurnFit for your personal trainers in vancouver. We know there is a lot of company’s to select from. We are grateful to hear that you felt empowered right from the first meeting to achieve your goals.
Fantastic experience: Best trainers in Vancouver!
Thank you very much Kyle
Fantastic experience: Had a great introductory session with David. We went through the initial process and immediately he noticed and made suggestions to help make my posture better. David's great at putting you at ease and and would not hesitate in recommending TurnFit to friends and family. Would definitely suggest giving them a try!
Since there are so many personal trainers in vancouver we always recommend when you are looking for the right personal trainer team we always think it’s best to interview around and we are glad that we could help educate you and give you something you can do all on your own immediately.
Fantastic experience: Hands down the most professional personal training experience in Vancouver!
Thank you for checking us out. We strive for the best.
Fantastic experience: The TurnFit team is so motivating and educated it makes me want to train hard and be my best self!
Thank you Sarah. You are crushing it at our boot camp Wednesday 7pm Saturday and Sunday 11:30am at 4055 Cambie st. Plus the online homework. It just shows if you put in the work you get results.
Fantastic experience: n the first interactions with TurnFit I didn't really know what to expect. After doing an assessment with them I knew I was in great hands. After training with the team I really can see that I made the right choice.
Thank you for trusting us as your personal training team in Vancouver Kitsilano and Cambie St for boot camps. Also online training for homework.
Fantastic experience: I had great experience with Deborah in the past three months. She is professional and always changes the exercise to keep it fun. I feel so lucky to have her as my personal trainer
Thank you so much for the great review about your personal training experience with us at our Kitsilano location. Deborah does care deeply for all her clients and is so excited each time you come in and progress each session. Make sure to tell your friends
Positive experience: Excellent facility for personal training. Low-key, mellow vibe makes TurnFit accessible and inviting. Great trainers, knowledgeable, and can tailor a full program, not just a single workout.
Thank you for trusting us as your personal training team in Vancouver Kitsilano and Cambie St for boot camps. Also online training for homework.
Fantastic experience: David has merged the latest break-throughs with traditional fitness secrets. I love his approach and path to be on TOP!
Thank you Meran for letting our personal trainers help educate and empower you.
Fantastic experience: The Team at TurnFit is great! The improvement tips and motivation is the best! I am always pushed to be the best possible me and I love it. HIGHLY RECCOMEND!
Thank you for trusting us as your personal training team in Vancouver Kitsilano and Cambie St for boot camps. Also online training for homework.
Fantastic experience: My experience with Turn fit was great. Deb really listened to my goals and helped me achieve them!
Thank you so much for the feedback
Fantastic experience: I’d never met with a personal trainer until meeting with David, and while fitness can be an intimidating thing, David’s friendly demeanour and outlook really took the edge off. What I like about TurnFit is the knowledge the team has and how the idea is about alignment, fixing the small things to help with the big things, and doing what’s best for your body. I have a chronic back injury, pain in my right knee, and various other pains and David gave me tips about how to fix my posture, fix the way I’m walking, ways to stretch and relax my muscles in a way that helps these injuries and corrects my body and muscle alignment to prevent future injury. I would definitely recommend TurnFit if you’re looking for people who care about the building blocks of fitness and how to achieve your goals while treating your body well.
Thank you so much for reviewing your online personal training team
Fantastic experience: During my time at Turnfit, I had the privilege of having Kevin as my personal trainer. We would meet once a week to workout, and during our sessions, Kevin would advise me on everything fitness including nutrition, proper workout technique and form, and he would answer any questions I might have (and I asked a ton of questions). Different from other personal trainers, Kevin makes it a point to educate you on why you are doing an exercise and how it helps you become a better athlete. As a result of his approach, I never felt confused or unsure with what I was doing when working out on my own. Also, he was available to chat outside of our sessions if I ever needed anything so that's a plus. In short, his positive attitude and professionalism made working out an enjoyable experience, and I would recommend anyone wanting to get in shape to consider Kevin for their PT needs.
Hey Chris! Thanks a lot for the feedback it means a lot! You’re a model client and you came in with a great attitude! Keep up the great work!
Fantastic experience: I found turnfit on facebook and followed their Instagram. I started to research and dig in deep to find out what exactly David was offering. After a few quick messages on Instagram we booked my first session. Not going to lie I was quite nervous as I am very out of shape at the moment. I was feeling very self conscious but I know I need help to get my body and mind back into shape. I met with David in Kitsilano at the gym where he trains out of. He is very kind and compassionate I knew this within our first 5 minutes of chatting. David clearly explained what the session consisted of and checked in to make sure I was comfortable and this was something that would work for me. He listened to my background story which I will post in the TurnFit Facebook Group for our members to get to know me better. He listened without judgment and shared his own struggles. I felt very comfortable and welcome at his gym. After we discussed everything David did a full 24 point muscle quality test checking for muscle imbalance. After that we moved to the gym floor and he showed me simple steps to correct my imbalances. He explained how to get to achieve goals my resetting my mind and body to healthy mode. The information was simple and I didn't feel overwhelmed. I now have joined his program and use the Turnfit App to track my progress at home. I am so excited to launch my fitness journey! Thank you, David and team TurnFit!
Thank you so much for reviewing your personal training team.
Positive experience: Deborah was extremely helpful and welcoming during my 3 months here; training with her made exercising not just a painful must-do, but something that could be fun and enjoyable. I could never imagined being excited for gym before having her as my trainer.
You are so awesome. We are really glad we could help!
Fantastic experience: I started training with Kennedy at Turn Fit three months after hip surgery. I have been blown away with his attention to detail and focus on ensuring that I do things properly, as well as his incredible knowledge. I have trained regularly for over 20 years, but I feel that I have learnt more in the past couple of months about proper technique than I have over the rest of this time combined. It is amazing to have a trainer that is so focused on you and concerned with your personal goals. Highly recommend!
Thank you for the kind words. We love to educate and give you all the tools so you feel empowered to use everything we teach in your daily routine. We are so happy to hear we have taught you so much. We are a little sad that no one else’s gave you these tools before. Big hugs and high fives
Fantastic experience: I learned a lot of good stuff that I haven't experience before and I never thought I needed.Everyone's friendly and very good environment.10000% recommend!!
We are also glad we are able to help enhance your natural beauty.
Fantastic experience: It's amazing how just modifying my posture slightly I'm able engage my glutes so much more effectively and this allows me to find proper engagement when performing all exercises. I've noticed an increase in my strength already because I'm able to perform exercises with the correct form. I recommend everyone go check these guys out even if it’s just for their assessment. Right now I know they have the assessment for only $33. Usually $270 and also a free month of online training. Use promo code LeighlaC
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. Our goal is to educate as many people as possible so that you have all the tools you need to enhance your natural beauty. Slight angle changes make a huge difference many know this, but just not sure why or what angels. We try to give you the knowledge so that you feel empowered to do it on your own too.
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience working with Deborah. Tough but fair, engaging but challenging and able to adapt on the fly. I was looking for something other than the doing the same old exercises with weights and machines at traditional gyms that I’d been doing for years. Deborah was able to give me lots of variety with workouts that really pushed my limits. Highly recommended.
Thank you very much for the great review. We love to help challenge and empower you to grow.
Fantastic experience: Thank you, David! It was a great experience having Megan as my trainer! To my surprise, the result of my twelve sessions was more than I expected. I'm glad that I tried turnfit and it allowed me to change my lifestyle in much better way! I'm in the best shape in my life :)
Thank you for the kind words. We strive to help achieve your goals in the most efficient way possible
Fantastic experience: Super fun trainers! Shout out to Megan and Kevin for giving me fun and effective workout routines and working with my schedule. 10/10
Thank you so much for the kind words Vinu! You are a wicked example of what following a little guidance and homework can accomplish. You are a rock star
Fantastic experience: David and his team at Turn Fit personal training are dedicated to helping their clients achieve their goals. They do this in a structured and very professional way. If you want results then Turn Fit personnel training is the place to go. I would and have recommend them to my friends.
Thank you so much, Elliot
Fantastic experience: Had a great three months working with trainers Deborah and Sarah. Finishing up after my last session I definitely felt like I was ready to continue working on my fitness on my own and if I ever need a refresher I know that there are some friendly faces I can always come back and see. My goal was gaining a bit of weight and they were informative not only on what to do in the gym but also with dieting. People have already started noticing the difference! Very welcoming environment and a great way to get started in taking care of your body.
We are extremely happy to have helped you crush your goals!
Fantastic experience: I have met a lot of personal trainers in my life and David is absolutely one of the best ones I have ever met! He not only focus on helping us loose weight and build muscles but also support us change our bad eating habits into a healthy one. But what I like the most about him is that he focus on helping women and he understands a busy mom who doesn't have time to workout 4 hours a week. He designs our programs according to our busy schedule and the best of all is that we can workout from our homes, or from the closest gym from our house, anywhere with his 24/7 assistance if we have any questions. Thank you so much, David for supporting our mom community!!
Thank you Sarah. You are so amazing!!!!
Fantastic experience: I have been training with David and his team for the last month. My trainers Deb and Sarah have been amazing, constantly challenging and encouraging me to reach further than I think is possible! The care and thought they put into program and exercise design is the right fit for my strengths and capacities. Somehow they design it so thar every session is fun and never boring, literally I don't know where the time goes:) My energy and mood has improved dramatically and I appreciate the Turnfit team for inspiring me to reach for my fitness goals!
You are amazing Pamela. We absolutely love helping you along your journey. When people like yourself have such a strong desire to live a healthier lifestyle it means we can really work our magic.
Fantastic experience: Today was my initial consultation with David. I have known him for about 6 years when he was a personal trainer. Today, I would say he is much more than that. Thought leader or visionary now comes to mind when I think of him. It's quite inspiring to see how he runs his business. I was curious to see how Turnfit became the top rated personal training company in Vancouver and by the end of my consultation I could clearly see why his clients rave about him. I loved that he shared his story about why he supports the Heart & Stroke Foundation. So a bit about the consultation and facilities: David took time to find out my muscle density in 24 different body parts. He also took time to go over areas where I could improve and showed me simple exercises to strengthen those areas. As someone who spends a lot of time on the computer it is quite important to maintain good posture. It's pretty clear that David cares a lot about his clients and his team of trainers. The facility where Turnfit operates is one dedicated to personal training sessions. It's quite different than going to a big box gym (not that there's anything wrong with that). As someone who values their time, I could really see why people choose this over the regular gyms. The atmosphere is just better. People are working hard, having fun and not on their cell phones. I've had many free trials at big box gyms often leaving with a bad taste where it really just feels like a hard sale. If you're looking for a team that will educate you to get the results you want then check Turnfit out.
Thank you very much for the kind words Jay. We are so glad that you felt and saw all the care and attention that we put in to every single visit with everyone. We strive to be the experts in the industry and rebrand what it means to be a Trainer. We love to educate and motivate to help achieve not just physical health but mental health improvements too! Thank you for sharing with the world.
Fantastic experience: I am a client of the TurnFit Bikini Body Online Personal Training Program. I'm 64 years old and have just completed my second 12-week program. I have lost over 40 lbs, 20% of my former weight. I have become much stronger and healthier through the program. On my doctor's recommendation, I stopped my blood pressure medication after two months and, three months later, my blood pressure remains in the normal range. Coach David Turnbull and Coach Benjamin Gustafson are amazing! They design a nutrition plan and exercise plan personalized for your body type. You can reach out at any time for help with the program. You use their app to track your exercise plan and your progress and it includes messaging to your coach. You can also email and book calls with the coach whenever you need help. I am starting my third 12-week program to maintain my goals and to continue to get stronger. I highly recommend this program. It is doable and rewards you with fantastic results.
We are so happy to have helped you! You are an amazing student who really loves to learn and crush goals. We are glad you see our vision of creating a happier and healthier you :)
Fantastic experience: Three months ago, I had been interested in the idea of having a personal trainer/new program to follow and wasn't sure where I should go. I looked into so many places in Vancouver, but based on reviews, TurnFit was what I decided to try. Now here I am! :o I'd heard about TF's 12 week program, and was interested in being provided with daily workouts to follow, but thought it might be best to see someone in person as well. I met with David and he got me started with the app (in addition to working on my posture). He also got me started with Kevin, who I have been seeing for training once a week. (Kevin is awesome!!) The app has worked really well, and I like that I can just show up and a workout has already been planned for me.. it took that extra element of thought and planning out of it so that I could focus on other things (especially at first when I wasn't too sure how I should get started). I enjoy being in the gym again, I am healthier and my energy has been amazing. There have been so many benefits to this that I wasn't planning for. Highly recommend the TF team to anyone who wants to improve their fitness and/or lives in general. The trainers really go above and beyond when it comes to providing a well-rounded service and constant support; I know that they're there if I need to ask a question, 24/7. It's such a positive community/gym to be a part of. Definitely no regrets & am so happy I tried this - planning on continuing. Thanks Kevin, David and the rest of the TF team!
Thank you very much for this awesome review. We are glad that we could help give you all the tools to be successful. Very proud of you
Fantastic experience: Seriously Epic! I never wanted to use a personal trainer. I felt like I could do it on my own but I was totally wrong!! Within my first hour with David, I learned how to breathe properly, stand properly, how to sit in my car and how to adjust my seat properly. Every tip I gained I will use for the rest of my life! He does video replay for you so you don’t forget specific workout movements and his advanced app testing he does at the beginning is really cool! He made me feel comfortable even with my insecurities! David has a calm and knowledgeable way of getting the most out of every workout! I seriously am truly grateful!!!
Thank you Hayley for the very kind words. We aim to create a preventative health care and we believe if we give you all the tools you need day one that you have the choice to do it on your own or with us. We are happy you see value.
Fantastic experience: Great first impression...David and his team are true professionals.
Thank you Darcy
Fantastic experience: I started training with TurnFit in the beginning of summer, with an idea to get a more toned and firm body by September. My experience so far has been very good. I have achieved the results I craved: my lower body area and my arms look better in pictures. My training has been designed around my personal goals with flexibility to try new exercises and include stuff that I like to do in the gym (for example, swinging Russian kettlebells or boxing). The studio is well equipped, and my trainer Kevin is knowledgeable and acknowledging my physical limitations and strengths. I feel like I get customized programs every time which makes sessions fun and not routine. By gradually increasing pressure and difficulty of the exercises Kevin pushed me to achieve results I couldn’t before. I find this personal and considerate approach to work best at the stage I am at in my fitness endeavors. I am pushed and motivated to do better, but I don’t feel exhausted and drenched of energy after training. I will continue personal training with TurnFit and would like to recommend it to anyone who seeks individual and creative approach in fitness, who wants to strengthen their body and mind.
Thank you so much for the great feedback. It is an amazing journey you are on and we are happy to by your side.
Fantastic experience: My wife and I have been training with TurnFit and Kevin for the past 12 weeks. We've really enjoyed the variety in our workouts and the balance between the strength and cardio exercises. I've seen a noticable difference in almost every aspect of my day from the way I walk, sit or stand to the way I pick things up off the floor or lift things onto a shelf. Thank you Kevin and TurnFit for helping us towards our fitness goals.
Thank you so much for the great feedback. We are so pleased to help you.
Fantastic experience: Amazing program, amazing support, amazing workouts. These guys are incredibly helpful and down to earth. I would recommend their program to anyone, no matter where you are currently at.
Thank you Sarah
Fantastic experience: I have never had the motivation to change my lifestyle and fitness until I met David! He showed me how workouts can be challenging and fun at the same time and is helping me achieve my goals. Highly recommend to anyone who needs some help to move in the right direction.
Thank you for the kind worlds Tess. We are so happy to meet someone young who care about prevention. You are wicked.
Fantastic experience: David Turnbull not only has Turned Fit himself but is doing so for all those he works with. He brings a level of dedication, discipline and commitment to the people he trains that is just not found anywhere else. I so value his focus on corrective posture and movement through the training process that will help to build a lasting, injury free, goal oriented program that we would all benefit from no matter what skill level. Because of his professionalism, passion for teaching and his dedication to inspire I won't hesitate to send anyone over to him as well. As a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine, I understand that healing is a mind/body/spiritual process. I can trust that my patients will be well taken care of with lasting changes through this empowering process he and his team offers. Thank you David Turnbull and the Turnfit team for your continued support in our community!
Thank you for the kind words it is our pleasure to help
Positive experience: David has done a great job in gathering personal trainers who are knowledgeable, motivating and most importantly fun! I have been working with Deb for well over a year now, and I love it! I don't love working out, but she makes it interesting and challenging. She pushes me just enough! The best part is the comments from other people about how good I'm looking :)
We are so glad to be able to help educate and support you. You are so amazing! What can we do better to get a five star review? We are always looking to improve.
Fantastic experience: I enjoy my sessions here and I find that not only do they train you to be healthy and fit, they teach you how as well. Deborah is a wonderful trainer and knows how to help with individual needs!
Thank you Andrew for your great feedback. It is a pleasure to help you.
Fantastic experience: David & the TurnFit Team are a revelation. Communication skills, commitment to excellence and willing to accommodate client needs/circumstances are unparalleled. I've explored several other Vancouver-based trainers and found none to be nearly as motivated or multifaceted. From David's prompt email responses and openness to phone calls to his brilliant integration of apps such as Trainerize and MyFitnessPal everything has been A-1 from day one (with many more days to come). Do yourself a favour and get turned on to TurnFit!
Thanks for the great feedback. We really appreciate it
Fantastic experience: 11/10 would recommend. I’ve been seeing Kevin for a couple of months and enjoy it so much i’ve recently doubled my sessions per week. He makes each session personalised to me as well as keeping it fast paced, engaging and fun.
Thank you for the amazing feedback, Kate
Fantastic experience: My initial appointment with David Turnbull was outstanding. Not only was the Muscle Quality Test extremely enlightening, but David was also very helpful providing me with great advice and "homework" to enable me to continuously work on myself, even outside of their gym. I would definitely recommend the Interview/Muscle Quality Test with David for anyone who has fitness goals, and/or just want to have a detailed fitness assessment as a bench mark for their own journey.
Thank you Isabella for the great review. We love to hear that you got so much value out of our first session together. We look forward to helping you crush all your goals. Feel free to also go to our free community page where we have even more tips and free advice. https://www.facebook.com/groups/turnfit/
Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Kevin for a few months he is the absolute best. Personalizes every workout for me, keeps me super motivated, and we have so much fun. Would 100% recommend Kevin to anyone seeking a trainer
Thank you Benita. We always try to make working out fun so that you really want to come in to see us. By doing this we find our clients get the best results!
Fantastic experience: David is an absolutely AMAZING trainer! Before seeing him, I had never stepped foot inside a gym. I knew I wanted to make some lifestyle changes but I had no idea where to begin. He was welcoming, encouraging and supportive from the get go. I immediately felt comfortable with him! He came up with fitness goals that were attainable for me, given my incredibly busy schedule. I would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a motivating trainer! You won't be disappointed.
Thank you Tara. We absolutely love to help create custom programs for people like you who truly want the vest for their health. When we met you we saw how serious you where about investing in your health. As long as you remain committed we will do everything in our power to get you the dream health you deserve.
Fantastic experience: My experience with David, the owner of Turnfit, has only been positive. He's a very positive, caring and professional Personal Trainer and really cares about his team!
Thank you very much for the kind words Rebecca. It’s always a pleasure to see you.
Fantastic experience: David and team are amazing to work with. From the get go, they asked and understood my objective: Build my foundation so I can do the activities I love injury free. David is helping me increase my mobility and overall strength so I can sail the high seas, ski and play tennis as much as my heart desires!
Hi Ashley It is a pleasure to help you get stronger for you sports!!!
Fantastic experience: I really enjoy training with David. Each session is a new challenge. His constructive pushing improves my performance and builds my confidence.I have been training with David since March of this year. He is very personable and dedicated. I get the impression that he is knowledgeable in what he does. His training is very challenging and at one time I did jokingly say that I hated him, but in reality I really enjoy the experience and am pleased with the results I am getting after all the torture he put me through.
Thank you for the great feedback
Fantastic experience: I had a great introductory experience with both David and Deborah. Starting with what appears to be a solid benchmarking system to develop an optimal strategy that will best meet my needs. The first session was impressive and filled a lot of gaps in both my knowledge and my old workout routine. I'm excited to learn more and start gaining on my personal health goals and feel confident that the Turnfit team can help me achieve them.
Thank you for the great feedback. We look forward to helping you with your new journey.
Fantastic experience: Great experience so far with David. It was so cool to see the results of the full body assessment. I’ve learned so much already in just a couple of sessions about proper form and different exercises that work for me. David is super knowledgeable and positive. Im looking forward to our future sessions! I would highly recommend TurnFit!
Thank you very much for the kind words!! We are excited to join you in your fitness journey.
Fantastic experience: David Turnbull and his team are passionate trainers that really care about his clients. They are knowledgeable but more importantly, they truly care! I am a Chiropractor and David will do a thorough assessment on all of his clients and he will get them to address their aches and pains before continuing his training program to ensure his clients are safe and getting the most out of their training. David and his team are really changing the way personal training is being viewed! If you are looking for a trainer, do yourself a favour and go to Turnfit Personal Training where they make a happier and healthier you!
Thank you for the great feedback. We are extremely pleased with your service too. It’s very exciting to meet another health professional that truly cares about helping others.
Fantastic experience: David was excellent ! We discussed my goals and he assessed 24 pts on my body and where there was a significant weakness he showed /videoed me doing specific exercises to address these weaknesses. I am really looking forward to our 2nd meeting!
Thank you for the great feedback. We are happy to help.
Fantastic experience: I have been extremely happy with Kevin Lavers, my personal trainer; he is very professional and a kind and fun person. For the first time in my life, I have been exercising on regular basis owing to Kevin's continuous guidance and encouragement. Also, I appreciate David's (the owner's) support and organization, which makes the whole fitness experience hassle-free. Merci pour votre travail fantastique!
Thank you David for the great feedback and kind words. We are truly passionate about helping people get results. We are glad you can feel our positive energy and guidance.
Fantastic experience: I've been working with Caroline from Turnfit for a few months now. She's helped me to gain confidence just to be in the gym. She's also helped me through a (lower back) injury and encouraged me to keep going and most importantly, kept me safe while training through it. I'm always excited to see her every week, even when she really kicks my ass! I'm excited by the progress I've made and will continue to make.
Thank you for the great feedback Desirea. Our job is yes to keep you safe, hold you accountable and have fun. We are very proud of you.
Fantastic experience: I have been training with Kevin for the last couple of months and love our training sessions. Kevin is so positive and outgoing it makes every session just fly by! He is the perfect mix of fun and I leave each session with some new education on fitness, I would highly recommend training with him!!
Thank you for the great feedback Alexandra. We do our best to create a fun, energetic and positive space for you to get in great shape.
Fantastic experience: What surprised me most about Turnfit was how humble the trainers are. I had the pleasure of working out with David Turnbull and Kevin Lavers and enjoyed my time with both. They're both extremely personable and friendly, and the workout went by in a jiffy. David is also always trying new workouts which I like. I find many trainers especially at the big corporate gyms do not have the practical experience but just have a kinesiology degree. It's hard to take someone seriously when they look like they've never squatted in their life. I would highly recommend Turnfit personal training to anyone looking to get into strength training, slimming down, or anything in between. Although I would consider myself experienced (5+ years powerlifting, body building etc) I was pleasantly surprised at David's knowledge
Thank you Corbin for the positive feedback. We always test every plan we create on our own body so that we have the since and the real life feeling of how each plan will work with our clients. We are glad to hear that you can feel that level of service.
Fantastic experience: David puts his customers at the center of his practice. He really is focused on the customers and how he can help them achieve their goals. It is obvious that he has a passion for fitness and also for helping others.
Thank you for the great feedback and kind words Dominique. In the end we just want everyone to get the help they deserve.
Fantastic experience: I have been training with Kevin for a few months now and would highly reccomend training with him. He knows his stuff, he has amazing enegry so we have lots of fun, he's always keeping me on my toes and things interesting, and I actually look forward to our sessions each week. Do yourself a trial session with him; you won't regret it!
Thank you for the great feedback. We love to help educate and motivate to get people to their goals.
Fantastic experience: I joined up to Turnfit over 3months ago and I have loved every class. David and Kevin are extremely helpful and professional. I would reccomened them any day.
Thank you for the great feedback. We love holding you accountable and getting you to your goals.
Fantastic experience: david is pretty knowledgable his muscle scan is pretty good except for the fat percentage reading it is at least around 10 percent off compared to calipers, clinic weight scales, really need to replace that thing for fat assessment
Thank you for the review. If you want we can rescan you. Our machine typically is within a percentage of the DXA scan. With technology there could always be hiccups or glitches. So we would be happy to rescan you.
Positive experience: I was introduced to TurnFit when I signed up for a 90 day challenge. I live on Vancouver Island and was curious if I could be successful using a personal trainer remotely. I am more than pleased with my experience. I have lost weight, gained muscle and never met my trainer. I was able to do it all through an APP! It was amazing. Easy to use and I had contact with David via the App when I needed assistance. The videos attached to the exercises helped me with my form. If I lived in the Lower Mainland I would be have gone regularly for body assessments to track my progress. Since I live on the Island, I will be making trips into town and heading straight to TurnFit to check in. This simple App has got me motivated to step back into the gym and to keep going as the results are showing. Thanks TurnFit!
Thank you for the great feedback.
Fantastic experience: They gave me great tips to improve my workout and I could quickly see results. They even did a fat & muscle quality test as well as tips for nutrition. Trainers are very knowledgeable and have a positive spirit. Highly recommended
Thank you for the great feedback Alex
Fantastic experience: David is an exceptional trainer! I am consistently surprised and delighted by his knowledge and enthusiasm. The hour long sessions go by so quickly and I know I've pushed myself as hard as I can. Wish I could give 10 stars!
Thank you Megan for choosing TurnFit as your personal training team in Vancouver
Fantastic experience: David is an amazing and inspiring trainer, so dedicated and makes it fun every time. Would recommend to anyone
Thank you for the kind words!
Positive experience: I certainly got what I asked for Training with Ben Gustafson at Turn Fit! The workouts are fun but challenging, helping me push past my self imposed limitations. I've learned how to workout in the correct positions to get optimal results. Turn Fit delivers!!
Thank you for the great review. Let us know if there is anything extra we could have done or do to make this a five star experience
Fantastic experience: Ben is awesome! Very knowledgeable and supportive.
Fantastic experience: I started training Muay Thai with Dave K from TurnFit. The difference between him and other trainers is how patient he is with explaining technique. He shows me in the best way for me to learn, and in a really short time, I've had a ton of "ah ha!" moments. I'm always stoked to train with Dave because he is fun, funny, and knowledgable. Even when I'm super tired going into our sessions, I'm super pumped afterwards. I really appreciate how technique-driven he is. I have already recommended him to a few of my friends, and they have all enjoyed his training style and personality too. This isn't my first experience with TurnFit. All of the other experiences, whether it's been online training with David T or one on one training with Dave K, I've always had a great experience.
Thank to for the kind words
Fantastic experience: I was introduced to Turnfit by David Turnbull who at the time convinced me to come in for an introductory session with him and Turnfit. The first session was wonderful as David asked me all sorts of questions including what I was hoping to get out of my workouts with them. Nearing the close of the first session David told me that if I continued with them he would partner me with Ben one of his trainers. This is one of the biggest benefits of Turnfit, they have a trainer to match every type of person and personality. Instead of a trainer trying to take all clients for himself, David was more concerned with making sure my experience matched my personality. I couldn't be happier with his choice, Ben is a perfect match for me and watching some of the other Turnfit trainers I can see why he was such a good match for me but that one of the other trainers would be a better match for someone else. If you are looking to get fit with a training team that truly cares look no further that Turnfit!
Thank you for the kind words
Fantastic experience: Great workouts, learning tons and seeing some serious progress. thanks Jesse!
Thank you Simi for the great review
Fantastic experience: If they say they are the best personal trainers, trust it, they are not making it up. Currently I am having a personal training process with Jesse who also teaches me how to do boxing. He's doing an awesome job in understanding your personal goals, customizing training sessions and being supportive through the entire period. They do everything to support you reaching your goal. Extremely highly recommended, won't regret it. =========================================================== Here is the result after a full month of training. I came back just to update it. My muscle quality doubled, bfr lowers from 38 percent to 33 percent. Even though I went really aggressive on my training and diet, its still shocked me. Couldn't expect better.
Thank you for the kind words. We do our very best to motivate and educate.
Fantastic experience: Turnfit personal trainers are amazing and knowledgeble as to the science behind improving your fitness. 100% worth the buck.
Thank you for the great review!!
Fantastic experience: Kennedy is amazing! I was referred to him through the owner of turnfit as I had some imbalances between my left and right sides. Kennedy figured out exactly what the problem was and has spent 2 sessions so far correcting it. I can already notice a huge difference in my technique and can't wait for the changes to happen. Thanks guys!
Thank you for the great review!! We are glad that we can help
Fantastic experience: Since meeting Ben at TurnFit, it’s the first time I’ve ever enjoyed training in a gym. I wasn’t a completely amateur but didn’t really know what kinds of trainings are right for me. Ben is really encouraging, collected and listen to what you want out of a personal training experience. The sessions are really fun, challenging, varied and full of ideas for workouts I can practice in my own time too. I was amazed to see my energy levels are up, my size is down and I feel way more motivated, happier and healthier than ever before. It’s great to see a trainer taking a holistic approach.
Thank you for the great review!!
Fantastic experience: Deborah is an excellent trainer. And her humour makes going to the gym enjoyable.
Thank you for the great review!!
Fantastic experience: I have been tentative in joining a gym, being a newbie and all. I couldn't be happier with my decision to go to TurnFit. From the moment of walking in, I was made to feel comfortable and welcomed. Jesse, my trainer listened to my goals and my concerns with being attentive and genuine. My session was GREAT and I'm excited to continue here.
Thank you for the great feedback Louise! We strive to have the best service and knowledge in Vancouver.
Fantastic experience: Loving the guidance and motivation that I'm getting with Ben, he continues to push me to the next level and has me feeling like the healthiest and strongest version of myself. At first I didn't think I needed help training and then I was introduced to a whole new approach! Thanks Ben, you've made me achieve things I didn't even know were possible.
Thank you
Fantastic experience: 100% recommend Turnfit for your personal training needs; especially David Turnbull. Having not been to a gym in about 10 years I was nervous and intimidated but he put my mind at ease and made it fun. It was a wakeup call knowing Id never been doing any of the exercises correctly. It is well worth your while investing in a couple of sessions at least to learn the correct form so youre getting the most out of your workout. Thanks David!
Thank you for the great feedback. We appreciate you taking the time to write this and taking the time to work on your health. You are awesome
Fantastic experience: The Turnfit team makes your goals their priority. They create a supportive environment to work hard and achieve success. If you want to make a big change in your lifestyle, the Turnfit Team will help you take the first step.
Thank you Geoff. This feedback means a lot to us.
Fantastic experience: I train with Kevin who is a great trainer and a great person. He's very personable, knowledgeable, fun and motivating. The owner David is also great.
Thanks Paul. We love to help.
Fantastic experience: I have been training with Deborah from the TurnFit team for about five months now. She is an outstanding trainer! She takes the time to understand my goals and strengths and tailors my program accordingly. She pushes my limits in the most supportive way possible and has helped me see what I am capable of. I look forward to every workout with her! In addition to working with Deborah, I have had the pleasure of consulting with David on my goals and nutritional needs as well. He is extremely knowledgeable and makes adjustments to my plan as necessary to make sure I always feel like I’m achieving my goals. The team at TurnFit are professional, knowledgeable and fun to work with!
Thank you for the great feedback Caroline. We are always more then happy to help. We are excited that you want to take your health to the next level.
Fantastic experience: I met David a couple of months ago and have used his online training services. I thought this would be a good intro to David and am extremely satisfied. He is extremely knowledgeable and supportive. After our initial conversation, he developed a personalized program which worked with the gym available to me (small office gym). He checks up with me on a weekly basis and is always available for questions. Thank you David and I look forward to booking personal training sessions in the future.
Your feedback means a lot to us! We are happy to help. We are grateful you picked us as your training team. www.TurnFit.ca
