Lifestyle Evolved

Elston is a great motivator and works with you on your goals and keeps track of the progress and changes exercises to fit your needs. Very Satisfied with my sessions here.

Elston has created an incredibly welcoming and encouraging space where anyone of any experience and level of athleticism can work out. I was looking for a trainer who could give me some personalized attention and push me to work harder, yet be mindful of my injuries and particular needs. Elston does that and then more. He’s fun and easygoing and knows when to push you and when to ease up. This is not a fancypants gym where people can swan around looking nice; we all come here to kick ass, sweat, and high-​five one another. I particularly like that you don’t know what your workout will be till you get there, so you’re never stuck in a rut. But you’re also not doing the same workout as everyone else (unlike crossfit *koff koff*); it’s tailored to you and your abilities and goals. The people who work out here are fantastic and diverse, which says a great deal about the kind of community Elston has built around the gym.

I’m someone who’s tried repeatedly to find a gym routine on my own, and I finally decided I need an extra push to get things rolling. I’ve been at Lifestyle Evolved for about four months now, and it’s sincerely taken me farther than I ever expected.
This guy is the real deal. BUT– before you show up at Elston’s gym, you should decide whether you’re ready to commit. This place is not for the wishy-​washy. Seriously. You’re expected to give 100%, and it can be intense. However, the community he’s built at Lifestyle Evolved is enthusiastic, encouraging, after a few months, I genuinely look forward to seeing friendly faces and getting a thorough workout with people that want to push each other.
As a trainer, Elston is great at adapting to specific needs and adjusting to you and how your body works. He’s put me on a personalized workout regimen and nutrition plan, and checks in frequently to monitor my progress.
I’m thrilled with my experience so far, but I’ve also always been someone that has an all-​or-​nothing mentality. Bottom line: if you’re willing to invest, he’s willing to invest in you.

He is a good trainer. He can also help you even if you don’t speak that good of English.

As a 53 year old woman who has NEVER been athletically inclined, I was more than a bit nervous to go the route of a personal trainer, but boy am I glad I did! Elston made me feel comfortable from the minute I walked in the door. He was great at choosing exercises
that would encourage me to keep trying-that’s a big deal when your someone who spent their life running away from exercise! Lol!
I just signed up for my second session of 12 with him. One of the many things I like is that he will make a workout schedule/​session for me when I’m out of town traveling for work, which I do often.
He also checks in with you during the week to see how you are feeling after the workout and if you have any questions.
He is highly accessible and incredibly supportive!
I never thought I’d get this old body moving again, but it turns out with the right trainer you really can move!
Okay, I’m done. Thanks Elston!

I’ve known Elston for years and he is an amazing personal trainer and human being. He’s dedicated to my personal goals and enthusiastic about fitness and health. His passion for it is very contagious that you will eventually find yourself with the same mindset. He is always there when I need a little kick in the butt, such a great motivator. I can’t wait for him to help me lose my belly!

Elston is top-​notch! I had been in cross fit classes and was fairly fit for a while but over winter got in sort of an exercise slump and wasn’t feeling particularly enthusiastic about my work out. I had stopped going to cross fit and the routine on my own had begun to bore me. A couple months ago my fiancé signed us up to work with Elston, and although I was in a sluggish state, Elston’s positivity, knowledge and care got me going again. His attention to you and dedication to form is incredible if not therapeutic. I have an old shoulder injury that is slowly getting better through the exercises he’s selected for me personally. I feel more fit than I have in a long time and I stronger than I ever have – I even have a couple abs popping through! He also emphasizes the effects that diet has on your workout and even though he’s not a nutritionist, has guided us both into better eating habits and healthier lives. Both my fiancé and I feel better and are happy to have found such a great trainer and person to work with.

Elston is everything you’d want in a personal trainer. He’s serious about and dedicated to his profession and to helping you achieve your personal goals. He listens to you and customizes your workouts to reach all the specific goals you have… and then he reminds you (especially while you’re complaining) what those goals are. One of the most important things I can say here, though, is how attentive he is to proper posture and form. He understands that in order to improve your physical well-​being, you need to have a strong core to build upon. He won’t left you do exercises wrong and he starts you out exactly where you need to be to learn proper form and avoid injuries. He’s positive, funny and keeps things light-​hearted, energetic and fun, even at 6 o’clock in the morning! While reminding you that he’s not a dietician, he will give you common sense diet suggestions to improve your chances for success and to demonstrate all the things about your regular diet that are working against you. My partner and I have been working with Elston for about two months now and not only do I feel a lot better, I’m seeing really positive changes. I’ve always been fairly fit, but thanks to Elston, I actually finally have a six pack! I could go on and on. Working with Elston has had a huge positive impact on both mine and my partner’s lives. And he’s affordable! Stop reading Unilocal reviews and go see this guy now. He’s awesome!

I started training with Elston at Lifestyle Evolved when I was 9 weeks postpartum. After giving birth to my beautiful daughter, I was ready to reclaim my strength and fitness. Elston worked with my schedule as a busy mama and set up a fitness routine for me that makes it possible to do the majority of my training circuits at home while my daughter naps (I can get most of the workouts completed in 30 minutes). I’ve now been training with him for 7 weeks, and in the first 4 weeks, I have had encouraging results: I lost .5 cm in my chest and waist, 1 cm in my hips, and .75 cm in my thighs. I am now back in all of my pre-​baby work clothes and feel in optimistic about pushing forward to even greater fitness. The workouts planned by Elston at Lifestyle Evolved are highly effective if his training suggestions are heeded. I definitely recommend this gym.

Training with Elston has as his business name indicates, evolved my life! I came to him very overweight and low on energy. I’d been working out on my own for months not making any progress. Elston’s combination of interval training and strength training did the trick to seeing real progress! He offers the perfect combination of pushing you to your max while respecting your current limitations. Over time, it’s amazing to look back at at what used to seem impossible. For example, I couldn’t run a mile when I started training with Elston and last year I did a half marathon! And, when I first started training with Elston, I could barely hang from a bar for 30 seconds, but now I can do strict pull-​ups! Elston will help take you places you can’t get to on your own… training with him was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for myself.

Elston is a great guy! He approached me as I was walking by his gym and really had me convinced with what he was doing. He really worked my glutes, heck the next day I couldn’t even sit properly! I was also really tender around the chest area the following day. Biceps I think they’re called. After going a couple times I am really noticing the difference in muscle bulkation. If you’re looking for an awesome personal trainer that makes you physically climax, he’s the guy.

It’s never to late to start training a body on how strong it can really be. With patience, workouts, and the right diet it’s hard to get to the state of body and mind (too much to focus on). One of my main concerns was form in order to avoid injury. Elston is very patient therefore starts slow then adds pace to ensure the best workout injury free.
Elston has not only gotten me ready for this summer but has changed my mindset on life. From taking advantage of short periods in my daily routine for a quick workout to thinking twice about my choice on foods. My life has truly evolved for the better and I recommend him to anyone who is ready to feel good in their skin.

As a former professional and collegiate athlete, I’ve received top notch training. Most personal trainers don’t understand the nutrition, athletic workouts and mental drive needed. Elston gets it. He’ll help you find new potential that you never knew you had. He’ll work you hard and make it fun. His great attitude is infectious and will make you keep coming back!

I’ve worked with several trainers over the years and Elston is at the top of the list! His focus on form while working ensures no injuries and he really dials in all the minute details that take the exercises to the next level. (The slooooow pushups are full on cardio!) He pushes you to work hard, while also making sure you don’t overdo it and injure something. Elston is also a fun and charismatic guy so the workouts fly by! I highly recommend Lifestyle Evolved!

I have to admit that I was intimated to work with Elston at first, partially because I had no clue what I was doing, and I also have a back injury. Good reasons to be nervous and to shy away from training (which I did for years). After talking with him though, beginning the workouts and figuring out together what I could and could not do (and how far I could be pushed without worsening my injury), I became completely confident not only in Elston’s ability to rehabilitate my back (and help me get strong and toned all over!), but also in myself to have the ability to do so. I used to DREAD going to the gym, now it is a highlight and necessary part of my weekly routine. He makes it fun, but challenging. Now my back is stable and my pain is almost 100% gone. I will always have some back pain, but never thought it could feel this alleviated. Thank you Elston! Highly recommend just setting up an initiating session to chat and see if it’d work for you. I’m glad I finally gave it a shot and discovered it is something that I really enjoy.

Elston is a great personal trainer, with emphasis on making positive lifestyle changes. He helps you get to a place where your not only working out consistently but changing your mindset about nutrition and how you live your life.

Anybody can workout without a trainer but a quality trainer holds you accountable to getting results. That is exactly what Elston at Lifestyle Evolved does. He helps you see the little things and focus on what is most important to achieve your fitness goals. The gym has everything you need and the training is top notch.
