DAVE LOST 120 LBS. IN ONE YEAR!

When Dave started training with Coach Brian, he was 315 pounds. His knees were bad, his arches were flat, and he couldn’t run at all due to his weight and the pain it caused.

At this time, Dave smoked a pack of cigarettes a day. He drank often, and admittedly often drank too much. He was also, as he describes it, addicted to fast food.

Over the course of a 12-month period, training both in-person and online with Coach Brian, Dave was able to break many of the negative habits that were holding him back and affecting his health.

He quit drinking. He quit smoking. He gave up fast food. And to date, he has ran 7 Marathon’s, a 1/2 Ironman, and a multitude of other races around the world.

Dave says:

“Had it not been for me finding you, I am 100% sure that I would still be 315 pounds right now. Or actually, I’d probably be 350 pounds by now. I’ve worked with other fitness coaches and nothing happened.” 

As amazing as Dave’s weight loss transformation is, what is truly incredible is that he has kept the weight off for over 5 years! Way to go Dave!!

David Lost 20 Lbs. And 7% Body Fat In Seven Months!

“I have been training with Brian three times a week for over three years now. I like his style as he is serious about what he does, but at the same time he has patience and a great personality. This combination makes for a motivating workout. I also like the fact that he offers a varied workout regimen so my body can get ‘shocked” each time we work out. Over the last 7 months I have dropped 20 pounds and lost 7% body fat! If you are in the market for a personal trainer or fitness coach, look no further!”

Terry Lost 30 Lbs. And 6 Inches Around His Waist!

“I love my Personal Trainer. I am VERY particular about Trainers. I always pick one by watching them work with their clients. I assess the results of their clients and their own personal results. A Trainer needs to look like a trainer. Brian is one of the best. He is not a chatter box. He is quietly effective and he means business. He focuses on your form, pushes you tirelessly, changes the workout constantly to confuse my body, and has helped me become more stable (I used to trip and fall all the time, weird, I know).

My results have been the best testimonial. I have lost 30 pounds and 6 inches around the waist with Brian.

My whole body has trimmed down. My whole goal was to have a more lean body, not buff or overly muscular. He tailors my workout for my needs. It is funny, because I get asked about my Trainer every few days. He truly is the best. I can’t say enough things about him. I hired Brian 3 years ago. It’s one of the best gifts I have given to myself. I go to him 3 times a week, which I recommend.”

“Coach Brian Donovan is, hands-down, the best fitness coach I have ever had. He has a huge store of knowledge on fitness and nutrition and maintains professionalism without sacrificing personality. Within the first two weeks of training with him, friends and family began noticing my increased muscle mass. Stepping on the scale I noticed I’d lost nearly 10 pounds–I couldn’t believe that my two main goals were on their way to being achieved in such a short time! Brian knows his stuff and because he tailors his skills and knowledge to suit one’s needs, anyone who is looking to get in shape would benefit from Brian’s help.”

“Brian is my fitness coach and is assisting me to reach my goals for increased strength, toning, and greater fitness, along with nutrition advice. I highly recommend Brian to anyone looking to loose weight, tone up, look and feel great, and increase their fitness level. In 20 sessions with Brian over 8 weeks I have seen wonderful results with lost inches and many compliments!”

Hazem Sweiss

“I usually workout about 4-5 times a week on my own. I finally reached a plateau in my workout and muscle growth. I hired Brian after watching him train others at the gym and watching his technique and interaction with his clients. I have enjoyed working with Brian and will continue working with him. Brian will push you to achieve your goals and you will if you have the dedication. In addition to fun training sessions (even tho you’ll be sore at the end of them), Brian will also give you all the nutrition advice you may need or ask for. In my opinion, a trainer who has a great body and treats his body the way Brian does, is definitely a great trainer.”

“Do you remember back in grade school that teacher who never yelled yet everyone respected and obeyed? Well, Brian Donovan is cut from that cloth. Friendly but focused and intense, Brian pushes me to exceed my previous limits not by yelling at me, but because I know that he’s tailored the exercises specific to my strengths and weaknesses, and I can see how he is constantly fine-tuning the order and type of exercises to push me further past my previous failure points. This summer I’m looking forward to setting newer and higher fitness goals for myself and having Brian’s creative routines and coaching to get me there.”

“Coach Brian creates an innovative and tailored work out for me each time we meet. I need work on my balance and general core strength. He impresses me with a variety of exercises and I had already seen improvement after our first 4 visits. I look forward to our Sunday mornings. I am treating my 50’s as life as a rock star and Coach Brian Donovan is getting me there. Getting older is festive if you take care of yourself!”

Bryan Johnson

“Started working out with Brian a few months ago with the goal of losing weight and toning instead of becoming bulky. Brian is a soft spoken but tough trainer which is what I like and needed. The workouts were varied and always were difficult and I was extremely tired afterwards. I’ve worked out for years but now I realize that my workouts are nothing compared to what he provides. Working out different muscles each time helped me lose weight. I ended up going from 200 lbs. to 185 lbs. over a 3-month time period. I am very happy overall and my workouts now are harder than they used to be because of my experience with Brian so my weight is relatively stable now.”

Brian has been awesome to work with. He's been super open with communication and very responsive. He's given me great workout plans, and nutritional advice/sleep/well-being and he's never failed to make me feel like a priority with all my questions and comments. As someone who is in a similar industry myself, I was skeptical about how well an online program would work for me, but after a year of feeling discouraged by a unique injury, I decided to try using Brian‘s program and I’m really happy that I did. He’s been able to tailor workouts to me, and my specific needs and interests. I've spent the last few months using his program and I feel better - both mentally and physically and have seen good results 🙂 Thanks Brian!

Brian has been excellent - his approach is sustainable while still yielding great results. I grew up dancing and have had a difficult relationship with my body since I stopped, with previous attempts to change my body shape making me feel pretty miserable. Brian has helped me grow stronger, feel better in my body, and find a balance between hard work and enjoying myself. I was also skeptical of how effective virtual training could be, but his setup is fantastic! I highly recommend him for anyone looking to change their fitness routine regardless of their goal.

I lost over 20lbs in roughly 16 weeks, I can lift heavier things than I’ve ever been able to, and I’ve still eaten a lot of chocolate 🙂

Huge shout out to Brian and Online Fitness Coach! I'm 45 and spend 1-2 hours a day, 6 days a week in the gym. I've created my own workouts, used in person trainers and several fitness and nutrition apps to try and maximize my time in the gym.

Brian is the perfect combination of "all of the above". His virtual training style makes you feel like he's in person and his knowledge of both Fitness AND Nutrition makes him the best trainer I've worked with.

If you're tired of guessing about your Macros or how many sets or reps you need to hit your goals, Brian is the perfect resource.

Brian has been great for my wife and I. We were relatively active people and know how to diet and get fit, but were struggling to get results in our mid-40s. My wife and I couldn’t be more different in body type and overall weight loss goals, so we knew that instead of starving ourselves and investing in hours of cardio we needed some help. I had never used a personal trainer before and wasn’t sure what to expect. Everything about the experience was great and customized to what we needed and how and when we wanted to engage. Like most people these days, we move pretty fast and I appreciate that Brian engaged us the way that worked best for us (in-app, email, phone). He used the equipment we had available to us and was always willing to go above and beyond. I began traveling for work again, so he helped me customize workouts based on equipment in the hotel, sometimes making changes at 10pm to accommodate an early morning workout. Both of us hit our weight loss and strength goals (22 lbs and 9 lbs in 10 weeks - over the holidays). If you’ve set goals and are looking for a fitness coach, I would recommend working with Brian. We couldn’t be happier and look forward to setting more goals and smashing them.

I would highly recommend Brian Donovan, Online Fitness Coach. Brian is not just a fitness expert, but his guidance and nutrition coaching is the perfect balance. I started with him May 31st and have already seen amazing results. He really teaches one how to bring in a healthy diet for maximum results. His workouts are really excellent and with consistency I’m seeing such a difference in my body’s tone and definition. Also, I’ve had two major knee injuries in my life, one in 2013 and another in 2018 and I’m still able to perform the tailored workouts he’s provided, based on my level of fitness. His style is just the right mix for guidance to keep you on track and checking in with him. He’s absolutely the best coach! Highly recommend giving him a try, you won’t be disappointed.

My fiancé used to see Brian as a personal trainer and then joined his online fitness coach program. After seeing him lose 28 lbs and get in great shape in a short period of time I decided to join too.

I'm glad I did. Brian is the absolute best - He's always in contact with you through the app and will customize your meals and workouts to suit your goals and even change them as your schedule changes.
I've never had a fitness program that really worked for me before Brian.

With 23 lbs I've lost so far, I've got in shape for my wedding and it wouldn't be without Brian on my side.

I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for a trainer who actually cares about you reaching your goals and his workouts and coaching are incredibly effective.

My testimonial HERE: https://youtu.be/lviQQ8GcRbA

Brian is ‘THE GO TO’ for training and nutritional coaching. Since working with Brian I have lost 30 pounds. Not only that but my confidence is up and I look forward to going to the gym now!
This guy is really the best. He has motivated me to work out, something I never did before. I’ve been with him for nearly 5 years, through my single days, he kept me healthy during my pregnancy, and now he’s whipped me back into shape and helped me take off my 40 lbs. pregnancy weight gain less than a year since Riley was born. I cannot recommend him enough.

Over the last year and a half I’ve trained with Brian on a regular basis. Brian loves fitness and knows how to make every workout different and challenging. He is constantly switching things up and keeping it interesting. Brian is very skilled and knowledgeable, but what I like about Brian is that he is also very down to earth and fun. This is why we have also 'clicked' and become friends outside of our days of training. I HIGHLY recommend Brian for anyone looking for strong nutritional guidance, a great fitness program, and just a darn solid individual to train them! There was a reason he was VOTED BEST OF CHICAGO!

Working with Coach Brian has been an incredible experience. I spent almost a year on his program and I'm only stopping now because I'm 39 weeks pregnant and about to give birth any day now. I started the program last year when I felt like the workouts I was doing on my own were not producing the desired results. I had never worked with a trainer before let alone an online trainer but I am happy to have happened upon Coach Brian and he changed my life. He created plans that were customized just for me and if I needed something changed or modified he was always quick to do so. I appreciated the program more so when I became pregnant and he has worked with me throughout my whole pregnancy from the 1st trimester all the way to a few days before I'm about to give birth. Having the program and the accountability of having to check in after each workout made me drag my tired, nauseous body out of bed every single day to complete my workouts. As my pregnancy progressed Coach Brian modified my workouts for me as needed. He is always available to answer any questions and he also checked on my progress regularly. I will definitely miss the program and will without a doubt do it again in the future if needed.
Working with coach Brian has been an amazing experience. I learned about macros and loved the strength training workouts. Workouts were done based on equipment you had available and you didn't need a gym membership. I loved the app which made workouts and tracking super easy. He is very knowledgable and wanting to work with you so you can achieve your goals. I did his 6 week challenge and had great results. He keeps things realistic and keeps you motivated to have continued success. He was so helpful and I was excited and honoured to work with him.

Coach Brian gave me exactly what I was looking for. A fitness plan based on what items/ equipment I had in my own home. And the Meal Plan is amazing. The best part is feeling stronger and eating healthier with a plan for my fitness and health for the REST of my life!!
Thank you, Coach Brian for an awesome experience !!!

Brian is an excellent and extremely patient instructor. He is very professional. In August (2017) I took part in Brian’s 3 month online fitness program. Brian outlined for me a nutrition plan, work out regiment and posted great video blogs on a variety of topics to maximize your fitness plan and hit your goals. He checks in with you to make sure you don’t have any questions, evaluates your nutrition and fitness log and is always available for questions.

This was my first time ever going through a workout routine and let’s call it what it really is..... A LIFESTYLE CHANGE!!! At the beginning, I weighed 188 lbs and felt very sluggish and ate poorly. At the end of the 3 months I lost 20 lbs, changed my eating habits, decreased body fat while increasing muscle mass. I FEEL GREAT and am continuing my new lifestyle. Brian is definitely worth MORE than the 5 star rating. Sign up with him you won’t be sorry. You’ll be sore at first, BUT YOU WON’T BE SORRY. 💪🏼

I've been working out with Brian for about 4 years now and having his workout routines in my life turned around my fitness and health levels more than I could have imagined. Brian got me in shape for my wedding, then kept me healthy during my pregnancy, and then helped me take off my 40 lb pregnancy weight gain so I could get back to almost my wedding size!

His style is just the right mix for guidance to keep you on track and checking in with him. He’s absolutely the best coach! Highly recommend giving him a try, you won’t be disappointed.

My fiancé used to see Brian as a personal trainer and then joined his online fitness coach program. After seeing him lose 28 lbs and get in great shape in a short period of time I decided to join too.

I'm glad I did. Brian is the absolute best - He's always in contact with you through the app and will customize your meals and workouts to suit your goals and even change them as your schedule changes.
I've never had a fitness program that really worked for me before Brian.

With 23 lbs I've lost so far, I've got in shape for my wedding and it wouldn't be without Brian on my side.

I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for a trainer who actually cares about you reaching your goals and his workouts and coaching are incredibly effective.

My testimonial HERE: https://youtu.be/lviQQ8GcRbA

Brian is ‘THE GO TO’ for training and nutritional coaching. Since working with Brian I have lost 30 pounds. Not only that but my confidence is up and I look forward to going to the gym now!
This guy is really the best. He has motivated me to work out, something I never did before. I’ve been with him for nearly 5 years, through my single days, he kept me healthy during my pregnancy, and now he’s whipped me back into shape and helped me take off my 40 lbs. pregnancy weight gain less than a year since Riley was born. I cannot recommend him enough.

Over the last year and a half I’ve trained with Brian on a regular basis. Brian loves fitness and knows how to make every workout different and challenging. He is constantly switching things up and keeping it interesting. Brian is very skilled and knowledgeable, but what I like about Brian is that he is also very down to earth and fun. This is why we have also 'clicked' and become friends outside of our days of training. I HIGHLY recommend Brian for anyone looking for strong nutritional guidance, a great fitness program, and just a darn solid individual to train them! There was a reason he was VOTED BEST OF CHICAGO!

Brian is awesome. He puts together challenging customized workouts and gives positive reinforcement every step of the way. Whether it's in person or through the app style program it's worth every penny. Every time I am on his program I've been able to achieve my goals with his guidance. Can't recommend him enough.

Working with Coach Brian has been an incredible experience. I spent almost a year on his program and I'm only stopping now because I'm 39 weeks pregnant and about to give birth any day now. I started the program last year when I felt like the workouts I was doing on my own were not producing the desired results. I had never worked with a trainer before let alone an online trainer but I am happy to have happened upon Coach Brian and he changed my life. He created plans that were customized just for me and if I needed something changed or modified he was always quick to do so. I appreciated the program more so when I became pregnant and he has worked with me throughout my whole pregnancy from the 1st trimester all the way to a few days before I'm about to give birth. Having the program and the accountability of having to check in after each workout made me drag my tired, nauseous body out of bed every single day to complete my workouts. As my pregnancy progressed Coach Brian modified my workouts for me as needed. He is always available to answer any questions and he also checked on my progress regularly. I will definitely miss the program and will without a doubt do it again in the future if needed.
Working with coach Brian has been an amazing experience. I learned about macros and loved the strength training workouts. Workouts were done based on equipment you had available and you didn't need a gym membership. I loved the app which made workouts and tracking super easy. He is very knowledgable and wanting to work with you so you can achieve your goals. I did his 6 week challenge and had great results. He keeps things realistic and keeps you motivated to have continued success. He was so helpful and I was excited and honoured to work with him.

Coach Brian gave me exactly what I was looking for. A fitness plan based on what items/ equipment I had in my own home. And the Meal Plan is amazing. The best part is feeling stronger and eating healthier with a plan for my fitness and health for the REST of my life!!
Thank you, Coach Brian for an awesome experience !!!

Brian is an excellent and extremely patient instructor. He is very professional. In August (2017) I took part in Brian’s 3 month online fitness program. Brian outlined for me a nutrition plan, work out regiment and posted great video blogs on a variety of topics to maximize your fitness plan and hit your goals. He checks in with you to make sure you don’t have any questions, evaluates your nutrition and fitness log and is always available for questions.

This was my first time ever going through a workout routine and let’s call it what it really is..... A LIFESTYLE CHANGE!!! At the beginning, I weighed 188 lbs and felt very sluggish and ate poorly. At the end of the 3 months I lost 20 lbs, changed my eating habits, decreased body fat while increasing muscle mass. I FEEL GREAT and am continuing my new lifestyle. Brian is definitely worth MORE than the 5 star rating. Sign up with him you won’t be sorry. You’ll be sore at first, BUT YOU WON’T BE SORRY. 💪🏼

I've been working out with Brian for about 4 years now and having his workout routines in my life turned around my fitness and health levels more than I could have imagined. Brian got me in shape for my wedding, then kept me healthy during my pregnancy, and then helped me take off my 40 lb pregnancy weight gain so I could get back to almost my wedding size!

Brian Donovan Fitness Reviews

“After working with several trainers over the years, I was extremely fortunate to start working with Brian Donovan. Brian truly listened to my fitness goals and developed a very customized program for me. His nutrition advice was invaluable and in combination with the exercise regime, I was able to make quick and noticeable results. In fact, many friends commented on the changes they saw which validated that I had finally found the right trainer. Brian and I set monthly goals and he helped with both exercise and nutrition modifications to help me reach these goals.

When I started with Brian, my body fat was around 18%. With his program, I was able to bring that down to as low as 11% and also add a significant amount of muscle. I have been very impressed with Brian’s no drama passion for his clients and his work. He is very knowledgeable and eager to help solve any issue you may be addressing on your way to achieving your fitness goals. Working with Brian has been the best investment, I’ve ever made.”

“My sister and I were reluctant to work with a fitness coach or personal trainer because we thought we knew all there was about working out. However, upon doing our research we stumbled across Brian’s page and thought we should give it a shot… and boy did we get lucky. After the complimentary workout session (& may I add NOT a lot of trainers offer) we knew we had to book more sessions!!

Brian’s high level of professionalism, nutritional knowledge and easygoing manner makes him the perfect fitness coach. On top of all this, he wants to help you achieve your goals and expectations in a realistic and healthy way (let’s face it, Kim Kardashians butt cannot be achieved in one week SO YOU NEED HIM!!) lol. Overall the buddy sessions have been great, the pricing is very reasonable and his flexibility is making working out a blast. Thanks Brian, you’re awesome and looking forward to many more sessions =D.”

“Brian is great. I have been a client of his for the past couple months and am seeing some excellent results. We meet twice a week and the workouts he puts me through keep me feeling that good kind of sore all week long – in other words he always pushes me to an optimal level. Brian has done a great job educating me on nutrition and has put together some very helpful customized work out routines for me to run through on the days we are not training together. He really cares. Brian is as professional as you could ask for while at the same time a very friendly, easygoing type of guy.”

“Coach Brian is knowledgeable, thorough and creative. He excels in motivating you and finding that optimal balance between pushing you and yet allowing you to get on with your work the day after. The proof is evident: I have lost weight, my endurance has improved, and my wife has stopped looking elsewhere for a fitter mate!”
