Within a span of 6 months, Hannah's training not only managed to get me into the shape I wanted for my wedding but into the best shape I have ever been.

Training Loft has literally been life changing. I've been going to the Melrose location for 2 years…read moreand was thrilled that they opened in Westwood, so now I can work out with my mom who lives in Brentwood (she's 80! :). When you join you get an eval with a physiotherapist, who then meets with the trainers to determine where you, specifically, need to start building strength. I have never in my life been stronger and we even healed a high school knee injury and a recent disc injury. Sessions are efficient and intensive, 30 min (but you can double up for a 60). For semi private, one trainer guides 3 people doing their own program, so it's completely custom and very hands on re: form, etc. The owners, Wayne and Stephen, have created an amazing program and vibe: Supportive, AUTHENTICALLY positive, with trainers who know what they're doing and are so personable. I have never felt unsafe, even as I advance to things I've never done before. Highly HIGHLY recommended.

What really makes this place special is the staff. From the trainers--big shoutout to Jimmy, Francis, Vince, Taylour, and Caleb--each of them bring something different to the table and have helped me push myself in ways I didn't think I could. They're not just great trainers, they're great people. The monthly wellness check-ins with Garrett have also been a huge plus--super helpful for staying strong, balanced, and injury-free throughout my training. If you're looking for a place that'll challenge you, support you, and actually make you want to show up, this is the place!!

You can feel right away that it's a gym where everyone is welcomed. All body types. All ages. No egos. What continues to surprise me is the knowledge that the trainers have.

Best decision we made for our fitness journey!…read more As one of the greatest quotes I've heard goes: "Day one or one day" and we chose day one. My partner and I signed up together to work out at Virtuo, it's been an amazing experience so far. From the very beginning, Brandon (the owner) was super attentive and really took the time to understand what we needed as a couple training together. Great energy and very professional. And can we talk about our trainer?! Huge, huge shoutout to Wolf! He's the best. Super attentive, crazy knowledgeable, and somehow makes working out actually fun. We train with him twice a week, and we genuinely look forward to every single session. Like, we wake up excited to work out. That's never happened before If you're thinking about signing up somewhere go to Virtuo and ask for Wolf. You won't regret it!

Thad has been an incredible addition to my life over the past 5 months! I'm going to be honest, I…read morewas looking for a hot trainer to motivate me and kick my ass into gear. A little inspiration never hurts, right? I was a long time runner who found myself completely disheartened after multiple hip surgeries and other orthopedic issues. After graduating from PT, I had a hard time finding my way back to exercise with the right method. I felt lost about how to workout without fear or pain and was looking for a solution but, really - I guess I was looking for Thaddeus. He treated my process like an exciting project that we shared which made the whole experience feel like an adventure! As patient and encouraging as he is, he doesn't cut much slack! Before I knew it, my workouts felt like a second job. I often referred to him as an exercise dictator and tried to threaten him with my pointy shoe collection, but he insisted that barefoot shoes were best for my issues. No matter how much I put up a fight, I knew he really believed in me and that was everything. Thad was really invested in my injury recovery and genuinely cared about seeing me doing what I love again without pain. He also helped me discover new types of exciting workouts, which took the pressure off of being a runner again right away. He always goes above and beyond and even spent time experimenting with some of the new techniques with me, which made me feel less alone on the journey. Thanks to him, I was able to finish a 10mile race strong; the first one since my hip surgeries 4 years ago. I am much stronger and in less pain. I have been able to connect with my body with incredible intention & discover a renewed sense of vitality that I had missed. He is a truly unique and talented person (and the eye candy certainly doesn't hurt!) and I feel so lucky that I was able to train with him. He really showed me that the sky is the limit when it comes to health & fitness. You would be in the best hands working with Thad, he'll help you change your life if you let him.

TRAINING WITH THADDEUS, 12 WEEKS TO TRANSFORMATION…read more At age 60, I believe--conveniently--- in the continual process of regeneration. This somehow worked to my favor recently as I emerged from a decade-long Dark Age, a seemingly endless period of inactivity and exhaustion brought on by thyroid autoimmune disease, Epstein Barr Virus, anemia, and arthritis. A total knee replacement three years prior did not result in pain-free walking. At too young an age I found myself wondering if I would ever feel good, energetic, and nimble again. This illness debilitated me, ended my very successful career, and limited my social activities including all thoughts of sex. I felt sad and over time grudgingly adapted to bad health by finding slower, smaller, quieter ways to find joy. Early in my physical breakdown, it occurred to me that I could heal myself with a correct diet, and I hired a brilliant private chef/nutritionist/teacher: I subsequently spent years developing a personal diet and supplementation plan that stabilized me. Then a surprising 2021 end-of-year blood panel showed relatively normal results (!) and inspired me to imagine and shoot for.... regeneration! In February 2022 I began a process to test and extend my physical limits: I decided to dust-off my weights, gather all my equipment, find a trainer and begin to get strong again. I found Thaddeus via an online search for nearby private trainers. Thaddeus was based at a gym a mere three blocks from my apartment, earned strong, positive reviews, and at my request, agreed to give an intro session at my home. Smiling face, handsome guy at the door. It was an excellent first session based on his assessment of my (lack of) fitness. He asked good questions, gave good explanations, patiently identified the muscle groups in focus, encouraged bravery and focus especially for those final reps, and was respectful. It was clear he was also well- studied in musculature. I liked his intelligence. Without hesitation I purchased a 20 session package and began training a week later. That first week was the only "one-session week" with Thaddeus: My unexercised body clearly needed the discipline of a structured session twice a week, and it responded quickly. Thad gave me homework and expected me to confirm nightly that the structural work was complete. Within the first 6 weeks, I became stronger, more agile, my knee pain was mostly gone and my glorious endorphins had kicked in. My "chi" roared back into high energy. After many sessions, I would imagine that bolts of energy were shooting out from my fingers. I felt restored very quickly, and without injury. I went through a physical and mental transformation within weeks that was palpable to me and confirmed by others. I am still transmitting my new energy to my world: Friends say they feel a new positive power emanating from me. The pounds dropped off---14 pounds in 12 weeks. I know that there is no way I could have achieved this alone. I had the right trainer at the right time. Thank you Thaddeus. I think it's important to express my gratitude to this person who gave me life-changing help, and to the universe which illuminated a potentially strong partnership for me. Thad is a great teacher and trainer, and I'm a good student. I feel lucky, and intend to train with him for a long time.

Every dish is full of flavor and everything is made with the most nutritious vegetables. Here knowledge on food is incredible. In a short period of time I noticed a huge difference in my energy levels , my mood, my daily digestive, my skin and nails and my overall appearance. The quality of her food brought me awareness of the day to day crap food I would ate daily. I have a complete new view about what not to eat and what is good to eat. After the second or third month of Victoria cooking I started training with her. She has a wide range of workouts which makes it fun. I had suffered a work injury and Victoria was able to work with and around my injury. I'm honestly so impressed with my progress. I'm in the best shape I've ever been in my life. I've always wanted nice flat stomach and first time I have abs. I developed beautiful definition in both my back and arms. Victoria is a warm heart, she takes what she does serious and is dedicated in getting you the results you want. She didn't just train and teach me she created a whole new healthy lifestyle for me.
