I am so glad I found Yusuke, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! Yusuke is very knowledgable in body mechanics, rehabilitation, and in dealing with specific physical issues. His very broad training, knowledge, and skill set includes training in BoneFit from Osteoporosis Canada, which is how I found him following a very recent diagnosis.
Yusuke is meticulous in showing me all that is recommended to protect my back, while increasing my core and muscle strength through a series of weight training and other exercises; as well as tips to prevent injury — from my golf swing to every day experiences. Every session finishes with stretching, which many personal trainers don’t include.
I really appreciate Yusuke’s attention to detail, clear instructions with insistence on alignment and good form, ability to push for more from his clients while also being encouraging, and his overall friendly professional manner. I have every confidence in Yusuke as my personal trainer, and I know that I am getting the very best tailor made training possible.
