Review: Why Fernando is happy here…

Male torso logo“I was able to avoid back surgery because of Lyen and the team at Peak Physique. About 3 months ago I started with my workout sessions at PPP. At the end of the first week I already felt an improvement with the sciatica pain which I was used to having everyday. I’ve got 5 herniated disks.

Since then, I have been doing 3 sessions per week and the combination of stretching and weight lifting has not only made me cancel my already scheduled date for back surgery but has also given me confidence which I had lost a while ago – I had stopped working out since it would aggravate the pain each time. I am looking and feeling good again!

Lyen is an experienced personal trainer who understands that everyone is different and a formula that works for some clients will most certainly not work for others. Basically, it’s a highly personalized program which I like to think of as the anti-“CrossFit”.

The gym is clean, bright and airy. The equipment is new and team friendly. There’s free and easy parking most of the time which also makes it convenient. I highly recommend Peak Physique, specially if you have some kind of medical limitation when it comes to exercising. They may be the solution you have been looking for. It’s working for me…”

Review: Vanessa thinks it’s awesome!

woman_no_image_160“This is such a great place to receive customized training with results!! I got 3 different trainers in my rotations and they were all exceptional and very knowledgable. I worked mostly with Lyen and she definitely pointed out my weak points which no other trainer had in the past and she even made sure my posture was correct at all times for my workouts which is what most people do wrong and this really has helped me going forward!

Unfortunately I haven’t continued with them due to other financial obligations but if you have a goal in mind or want to really know how to work out for your body type or just need a great trainer this is the place to go and worth the investment!!”

Review: Nina is a fan!

woman_no_image_160“I have been training with various personal trainers for years, but got really serious about it 1 1/2 years ago. Recently, I started school in Miami and had to find a trainer here.

I found PPP online and it has been a great experience. I mostly train with Rich and he really knows his stuff. The workouts are always varied and extremely intense and challenging, which is what I was looking for. He is by far the best trainer I have worked with.

The gym is clean and beautiful, and the people who work there are very friendly and professional. They really understood what I was looking for. I couldn’t be happier.”

Review: Carla likes our Small Group Personal Training!

woman_no_image_160“I started going to the small group personal training 3 months ago. I absolutely love everything about it. Lyen is really great and very focused on form, which I appreciate even more after getting injured at a Crossfit place just a few months ago. I was very out of shape when I started and she would modify some exercises so I could do them and as i get stronger she motivates me to do more challenging workouts.

After 2 months i definitely noticed some changes in stamina and on my clothes too. Now after three months I continue to get fitter and the workouts are still challenging.

The facilities are great and the people you meet are great too. Kolja, the owner, is a very pleasant person but most importantly very interested in how the workouts r going. After looking for a bootcamp class for a while I am really glad i found PPP.”

Review: Julia’s experience at Peak Physique & Performance

woman_no_image_160“I have been to many personal trainers before, but the trainers at Peak Physique are truly the best!  I was hesitant on going because I thought that since I was already in shape I did not need a personal trainer. However, I’m glad that I went!

Lyen and Rich are highly trained and know exactly what they are doing.  They really know how to target the weak spots, and will adapt the workout according to your body. Even though I was already active before I came in, I still saw tremendous results with these trainers!  

The facility is always clean and the owners are very well organized. Everyone in here is extremely nice and welcoming. Normally at gyms everyone is intimidating, but here they are welcoming and open from day 1.   I would highly recommend this place and the trainers.”

Review: Elvis likes PPP

Male torso logo“If I had to choose one word to describe this personal training studio and its trainers, it would be professionalism. Since my first workout I’ve had a great experience and all the trainers I’ve worked out with have been complete professionals. I wouldn’t consider myself a beginner, as I have worked out quite a bit in the past. However, there came a point where I lost all motivation to work out.

One day I decided to do some personal training sessions as a way to push me into working out again and living a healthier lifestyle. After doing some Googling I found this personal training studio that was just a few blocks from my apartment. I signed up for the personal training trail sessions and thought the trial would be enough to get me motivated to work out on my own. I was so impressed by the quality of the workouts and the professionalism of the trainers that I decided to continue here and so far I’ve been working out here for about two months.

I plan to continue to work out here as the workouts are diverse and very well thought out, but most importantly, I’m seeing results! I highly recommend PPP.”

Review: Here is what Shifat thinks…

woman_no_image_160“I was looking for a trainer to help me get in shape before I moved to another state for school. I barely ever went to the gym, always felt weak, and literally used to get tired just from climbing a couple of stairs.

Lyen was absolutely amazing. She knows so much and is able to figure out exactly what you need and where you need the most work to strengthen your entire body. We did a different workout everyday, so my workouts were never repetitive. She also tailored them to my level exactly to make sure I wouldn’t get injured doing something I wasn’t ready for. So I started off training using just my body weight and then once I got stronger, we started doing weight training. I worked with her for two months and the changes I felt in my body in that short time were more than I ever thought possible. My endurance increased, I had more energy throughout the day, and I just FELT stronger.

I wish I had found out about this gym earlier so I could have had more time to train with Lyen, but this was a great foundation for me to begin exercising regularly. I’m definitely going to try to go back to her when I’m in Miami for breaks.”

Review: Read what Leticia thinks about us…

“PPP is by far the best place I’ve trained at in Miami. Most people consider me to be a “gym buff”; therefore, I know quality when I see it. The trainers at PPP are not only professional, but very knowledgeable at what they do.

My experience with Lyen as a trainer has been beyond outstanding! She is always on time and ready to work with a game plan prepared just for you! She’s aware of your well being during and after your workout session. She definitely goes above and beyond the scope of her job to make sure you reach your goals! In addition to training me, Lyen choreographed a workout/dance routine for an audition I had 3 weeks ago, which turned out phenomenal!!!!

If you are looking to change your body or lifestyle, but need that extra push from someone else, no need to keep looking – Lyen is the person you need to contact! This a clean, comfortable and professional gym with staff who care about their clients!! I HIGHLY recommend PPP 110%!! Best investment thus far!!!”

Thank you, Leticia! 🙂

Review: What Barbara thinks about us…

woman_no_image_160About a year ago I decided to train for my first ever 1/2 marathon, something I would have never thought I would even consider at 35. I joined a running group but knew that would not be enough. I looked online and saw that Peak Physique & Performance had awesome reviews and decided to try them out. Now a year later, I successfully completed my first 1/2 marathon (I’m still in awe) and even completed a Mud Run. Lyen and her amazing group of trainers have helped my accomplish goals I never believed possible. I think that is the measure of a great trainer, taking us beyond even our own expectations. This year I plan to run 5 half marathons and a couple of obstacle runs and even plan on taking some trapeze lessons. Thanks to everyone at Peak Physique & Performance I am setting new goals and expectations for myself. I’ve been training with them a year and they have been able to graciously accommodate my rigid schedule. My work is demanding and I need a regimen that can accommodate my work. Other trainers are not always able to be flexible, which is another + positive of PPP. They are willing to work within your limitations but understand that is not what defines your ability. Like I said, I’ve been there a year and always get the largest training package; I’m not going anywhere soon. Thank you Peak Physique & Performance!

Another great review – thank you!

After 4 years of procrastination, I have finally decided to find support to achieve my fitness goal, which is to compete in a bikini modeling competition. Within 3 months, I’ve lost 10 pounds and 3% body fat. I feel more confident with my body now and the knowledge and support of the team at Peak Physique & Performance is invaluable. I look forward to continuing this journey together with them all the way to winning the bikini modeling competition… stay tuned 😉
