We went to go for professional headshots and I really didnt have high expectations (figured it would be boring and matter-of-fact). Well... it was a great surprise! Sara and her husband were both very fun and engaging. They made all of us laugh and we learned about them and their gym/fitness center (which was also very cool). I dont think I would have ever said that was such a fun photo shoot in my life before today. Well worth the price and I have nothing but good things to say. Cant wait to see the final products!
I’ve been going to Coach P for a couple weeks, he’s not only an awesome man to work with, he dedicates his time to understand you, help understand the nutrition and make it easy to learn, and works with you to reach your goals, the best part is being able to workout with him even if he is a leader he still works as a team. With addition to him having wisdom on life. Go check my NYC brother Coach P to help reach your goals, whether it’s a workout regime or diet plan, you will not be disappointed, guaranteed!!!
Had a great workout with Pierre! Being a physical therapist, I have avoided a lot of gyms because of the high speed atmosphere without regards to functional movements and good form which can be a breeding ground for injuries.I felt like Pierre was super aware of our form, gave great tips, and created a workout that had a functional warm up, incorporated the full body, and had a great mix of stability, strength, and plyometric movements. Highly recommend.
Pierre is a superb trainer! He has an immense wealth of knowledge about exercise, nutrition and pretty much all things health and wellness. He truly knows the science behind everything he instructs you to do and can explain the “why.” Pierre is very conscious about body mechanics and the importance of good form. He is also mindful of past injuries and is able to offer modifications when needed. Pierre is extremely attentive to his client’s goals and will check in proactively to make sure the program is meeting your needs. He keeps it interesting by switching up the exercises so it never gets dull or boring. I cannot say enough good things about Pierre and the gym he has built! I have been training with him for several months and I am loving every minute of it - even when I’m dying from the workout! I have worked with many trainers in the past and I can say that Pierre is by far the best! He has a unique whole-body approach that is tailored to you from the beginning and I can honestly say that it is worth every penny. On top of all that, he is very friendly, super encouraging and always wears a smile! You can’t go wrong with Pierre at Athleteist!
Personally, I have always disliked working out. The time always dragged on and I never looked forward to going to the gym...until I began attending small classes at Athleteist. Wow, let me tell you that the hour FLIES BY and I actually have fun. Pierre’s workouts challenge me and I am actually seeing results. I am so happy that my friend referred me to him because I am almost 2 months in and could not be happier. If you are looking to change your life with health and fitness, Athleteist is the place for you.
If you’re looking for motivation, expertise, and a great time then look no further! Pierre is simply the best! He creates workouts that challenge me yet move me closer to my goals every day. I really appreciate how he takes the time to listen to me to understand what my challenges are and then structures my fitness and nutrition programs accordingly. What’s great about Athleteist is the workouts are scaled to each individuals ability. Regardless of your fitness and experience level I guarantee you’ll have the best workout ever! Give Athleteist a try.. I’m sure you’ll be happy you did!
Since working with Pierre, I have noticed significant changes in my body and strength. The small class sizes allows him to take time to watch your form and to push you to become a stronger person both physically and mentally. He always puts together a super workout that keeps me going back for more! Thank you Pierre!
Pierre is SUPER personal REALLY cares about your progress and mental state. No wonder why he used to be a celebrity trainer, the mindset you have to have in the gym with him is definitely elevating. I would recommend this gym ANY day!! If you put in the work you WILL see results no doubt
HIGHLY recommend the online training program - i signed up a month ago and I’m loving it! Pierre put together a personalized workout plan for me that is easy to follow, and I can modify the exercises to make it more challenging or easier. Best part is that I can do them at home or just outside with little to no equipment which makes it super convenient on my busy working mom life. Pierre also offers live FaceTime sessions, which was awesome because I had him coaching me on my form and counting out my tempo and reps which kept me motivated throughout our session. He also checks in on me weekly to keep me on my game and on track, switching things up here and there so I’m never bored and always challenged. I’d recommend to anyone!
Athleteist is the most elite gym in the Scottsdale area you will come across. It is a family owned gym with a welcoming environment. Pierre is amazing at tailoring programs for the goals you are trying to reach. They use the some of the best equipment on the market keeping you in the best shape possible. If you are looking for the best strength and conditioning gym, look no further!!! This is the place to be!!
This new gym is run by an amazing trainer that I’ve gotten to know very well over the years. The experience that he provides is welcoming, not intimidating, and effective.I came to Pierre with muscular imbalances and he was able to address my issues and tackle my weaknesses. My mobility have improved as well as my over all strength.I would recommend this gym to anyone who will get off their butt and do something for themselves.
I trained with Pierre twice a week consistently for nearly two years and it all added up to the best workout experience I’ve ever had. He listened to my goals and created a plan to get the results I wanted. Pierre is thoughtful, motivating and was always mixing up workouts to keep things interesting and maximize results. All this combined with Pierre’s easy going personality had me looking forward to every session. I highly recommend training with Pierre.
Pierre is an incredible trainer — he’s talented, personal, and thoughtful in his approach to training, but he’s also just a wonderful, kind person and a joy to be around. He will tailor your workout with your goals in mind, mixes up circuits to keep workouts fresh, tracks your progress, and is always mindful of good form and safety. He also provides helpful insight into body functionality and has a more holistic approach to fitness than other trainers I’ve worked with.
LOVE Athleteist. Love Pierre! Easily one of the best trainers I’ve ever worked with. He’s interested in your complete holistic health and takes the time to tailor not only a bespoke program that’s just right for you but also takes the time to talk with you about nutrition, your sleep habits and your life. Can’t say enough good things about Pierre.
I started training with Pierre in 2017, during a time when my life was in flux. Through working with Pierre, not only did I lose fat and gain muscle, but I gained more confidence, and an irreplaceable friend.Pierre is an incredible trainer, who is thoughtful, well-informed, and attentive. Pierre has a results-driven approach to training and desire to understand the human body, and is incredibly skilled at working with people to make modifications to their routines to reduce the risk of injury in order for them to move and feel better. New York isnt the same without him, but Scottsdale is so lucky to have such an incredible trainer to work with.
Congratulations on the new space!! Hate to see you leave NYC, but excited for this huge step. Scottsdale, take notice. I trained with Pierre for a little over 3 years, during his time at S10 in New York. He is one of the best in the game, period. He is incredibly hard working, humble, and motivating. Most importantly, he knows what he is talking about, and will design a plan customized for your specific goals. Pierre takes a different approach, and it is one that certainly leads to results and changes, while constantly pushing you to get more. Follow the plan, and you will be sure to see your body composition change significantly, as your body fat % drops and your lean muscle mass grows. Say goodbye to your typical cookie cutter trainer. Pierre is about to change the landscape of personal training in Scottsdale, and set a new bar for any competition. Go check this place out ASAP, and introduce yourself to the prowler. Can’t wait to take a trip out west to see the new space for myself. Gainz!!!
Pierre is one of the best trainers I have ever trained with. He combines a fun personality with some of the most challenging workouts I have ever had. More importantly the results were amazing. I would recommend Pierre to anyone who is serious about training. Its only a shame he left New York. Cant wait to come to AZ!
Pierre is a passionate, dedicated trainer who truly pours himself into each training session with his clients. He’s an excellent people person and quickly develops bonds that help him encourage you through your work out and get the best results. He has an in depth knowledge of nutrition and the best habits to maximize your results in the gym and maintain them outside of the gym as well. Honestly, he’s a wonderful person and excellent trainer, dont be surprised if you find yourself laughing with him between reps. Much love to the Athleteist family.
Ive worked with many trainers in the past and Pierre is by far the best. He is extremely thoughtful in each of his workouts. He takes the time to understand your fitness goals and creates a tailored program for you. Pierre keeps the workouts fresh and always challenging. I highly recommend Pierre.
Had the pleasure of working with P for about a year. He is an amazing coach with a big heart. Very effective methods and always looking to both learn and share knowledge. I don’t hand out endorsements easily but I stand behind this man. I can’t wait for us to cross paths again and put in the work!!!
Pierre is an amazing trainer. He’s extremely creative with his programming and will help guide you to achieve the goals you set. I worked with him when I wanted to start cycling more, he helped me build muscle and strength in my legs which helped improve my cycling and stamina. I got in the best shape when I started training him. I highly recommend visiting and training at athleteist.
Coach P is awesome! Trained with him for about 2+ years totally changed my relationship with working out and food. Also just overall fun to work with - workouts go by a lot faster when you can laugh and definitely see results
Pierre was my trainer in NYC for just over six months and in that short space of time, I saw real results!First trainer that actually listened to what I wanted to accomplish and helped me get there. He understood what exercises bothered my injuries and organized programs around them. Pierre undertook regular check ins, with photographs and in-body testing and made sure that my nutrition was on track. This helped me see visually the progress I was making, as well as specific stats which supported the photos - a great motivational tool.
This is hands down one of the best trainers I have ever had. Amazing knowledge, patience, and experience. Whether you’re dealing with injuries, like I do. Or you’re trying to just get better performance. You will get what you need.
I cant say enough great things about Pierre. Hes a fantastic trainer. He was my trainer for 3.5 years and Im honestly jealous of everyone who gets to train with him in AZ. Hes always prepared with an exciting and effective workout (a solid mix of strength and conditioning) and does an excellent job explaining the purpose of each exercise. He works closely with you to define and break down your goals in a way that feels manageable and motivating. I had neck/shoulder issues before I started working out with Pierre and he was incredibly helpful in finding exercises to help those issues, integrating them throughout our sessions. The best part of training with Pierre? Hes just a really kind and fun person to be around.
Working with Pierre for 2 years on rebuilding my body post injuries was the best decision I made. My overall strength, mobility and performance as an athlete in my marathons improved dramatically.The type of training that Pierre provides is extremely thought out, takes into account your injuries, goals and challenges your body on so many levels - a perfect balance.He’s also incredibly kind and was so fun to work with.
Pierre is by far the best trainer Ive had. His vast experience taught me so much on how the body works and how to get the best results I needed. Im so lucky to have had the time I had to work out with him. At true trainer that cares!
Pierre is the master fitness, coach and trainer . Very knowledgeable in many disciplines of fitness including nutrition. Help me transform my mind and body beyond my expectations. Very professional and custom tailors the program to maximize potential and results .... highly recommend .....
The first time I worked with Coach P was when I was visiting NY. At first, I was a little intimidated to workout with him but quickly learned that he knew the right things to challenge me to get me where I needed to be. He gave me instant feedback to make sure I was moving effectively and getting the most of each exercise. Some exercises, I had a difficult time maintaining form so he modified the activity in order for me to still target the right muscles without injuring myself.To me, this is very important, especially because I work as a physical therapist and progressing my fitness and wellness is one of my priorities— without putting myself in a place to injure myself.Coach P is also positive and encouraging... and of course is very challenging... all for the sake of making you a stronger and better version of yourself! Check him out!
Training with Pierre is a game changer. As a Phoenix gym enthusiast, I’ve tried it all it seems. What’s worked is Athleteists approach. The fit3d scanner is a game changer! Check them out if you haven’t yet!
There’s no one I would trust with my fitness goals more than Pierre. His patient demeanor and expert knowledge shine through in every workout that is personalized to you, your strengths and weaknesses- without making you feel weak and discouraged at all. You literally see the progress week to week and learn to just let go and trust him. He takes each client very seriously and commits 100% to them while with them and with research of certain conditions when he’s not. I’ve worked with him pre and during pregnancy and i was in my best shape and physically feeling the best out of all my SIX KIDS! Only regret is wishing I could work with him postpartum too if he wasn’t across the country- take advantage Arizona!
Coach P is the man. Really cares about making sure the workout matches the goals and always introducing and teaching exercises to do at home that help overall growth and recovery. He’s also just a super dope person.
Coach P is legit. He helped me build overall strength as well as created tailored programs for me while I was marathon training. He’s a great guy to be around, and is super knowledgeable about muscle composition, conditioning, nutrition, as well as mobility, and is constantly leveling up his skillsets.
Pierre is BY FAR the greatest trainer and friend anyone could ask for. I trained with him for about a year and a half and finally got the results I wanted and learned so much about myself and the industry. He is incredibly hard working, humble, and motivating and will design a plan customized for your specific goals and abilities. He pushed me past my limits in every workout and made me laugh the whole time!I’ll miss you out here in NYC and can’t wait to check out the spot in AZ. #HumblyCocky
Pierre is always encouraging, enthusiastic and creative. Every training session is different and never boring. He is very knowledgable on fitness and diet and incorporates diffrent techniques that will push you to do your personal best each time. Although it can be tough, I look forward to every session. Highly recommended!
I love the fit and look of this apparel line. It’s high quality and stands out from all the other brands!
I was stuck in a rut and 10 lbs heavier than I wanted. Pierre is all business. Just the right mix of encouragement and pushing. Mixed up my workout routine — gave me new exercises that I’d never done before.After 6 months of grueling workouts, PRed in the 1/2 marathon and full marathon.You want to chit chat and check your phone during an easy workout, go somewhere else. You want to get in shape, call Pierre.
Pierre and Sara are awesome to work with! The gym is clean and has a great atmosphere!
Pierre is 100% the best trainer in AZ. Not only is he super knowledgeable and a hard trainer he’s a super nice guy and genuinely cares about your fitness journey. If you’re looking for someone to whoop you in shape he’s your guy.
I dont even know if I have enough space to say what I want to say so...Ill keep brief (kinda). Athleteist and Coach P have enhanced me and my fitness life in so many. Coach P has trained me on numerous occassions. I love that fact that hes patient but at the same time he takes no bull and will take you out of your comfort zone and challenge you as well. The times that I have trained him have hands down been the best shape Ive ever been in and the strongest Ive ever been. Im not in my 20s, 30s, or 40s so my goals are a little different from a younger person. As Im getting older its definitely important to me that Im being lead thru a safe work out - looking good is nice but feeling good and strengthening is more important to me and because of his knowledge Coach P always took that into consideration during ALL of our sessions and I felt safe and taken care of. To this day I still rock my Humbly Cocky Athleteist T-shirt. Why? HUMBLY COCKY for life!!!
Coach P changed my life. He is not just a trainer he is your life career coach and therapist. He cares about more than just the workout. As a trainer at a top elite training gym in New York favorited by models, celebs, and athletes he always made me feel comfortable and focused on my health, he made the whole training process feel human. He made it not intimidating. Not for Instagram not for him - for you and your health. He is a real family guy, such a solid human. He cares about your self image, confidence and nutrition with no judgement. I’m so sad he is no longer in NYC and i will 100% be traveling to Scottsdale just to train with him .
