EXPERIENCE OUR RESULTS-DRIVEN PERSONAL TRAINING METHODS.

PROPER EXERCISE SELECTION.

We understand that the foundation of success lies in selecting the right exercises tailored to your goals and abilities. Our certified trainers meticulously curate each workout plan, ensuring that every exercise targets specific muscle groups and movement patterns effectively. Leveraging Prime Fitness USA's premium equipment, we optimize biomechanical efficiency to maximize workout effectiveness while minimizing the risk of injury.

STRUCTURED PROGRAMS.

Structure is essential for achieving consistent results in your fitness journey. Our trainers work closely with you to establish realistic goals and develop structured training programs that provide clear direction and progression. With WhittleStrength, you'll follow a carefully designed program that challenges you, promotes continuous improvement, and adapts to your evolving fitness level over time.

TEMPO CONTROL.

Tempo control is a critical component of effective training often overlooked. By manipulating the tempo of each exercise, we optimize muscle recruitment, time under tension, and metabolic response to maximize results. Our trainers use tempo variations, emphasizing eccentric phases for muscle growth or explosive movements for power development, to enhance the effectiveness of your workouts.

INTEGRATION OF SMARTSTRENGTH® TECHNOLOGY.

We utilize Prime Fitness USA's SmartStrength® technology to enhance your training experience further. By incorporating advanced tracking capabilities and performance metrics, we monitor your progress in real-time, make necessary adjustments to your program, and provide valuable insights to optimize your workouts. This integration ensures that your training is personalized, precise, and tailored to deliver optimal results.

DRIVEN BY BIOMECHANICS.

Biomechanics is at the core of our training philosophy. We personalize each training session around your biomechanics, ensuring that movements are performed safely and effectively. Our trainers conduct comprehensive assessments to understand your unique biomechanics, movement patterns, and strengths, enabling us to design programs that maximize your potential and minimize the risk of injury.

POSTERIOR CHAIN TRAINING.

We believe building a strong posterior chain should be a priority for everyone. That's why we overemphasize posterior chain and posture-focused exercises in our training programs. We typically incorporate a 2 to 1 ratio of pulling to pressing movements to correct muscle imbalances and promote optimal alignment. By targeting muscles along the backside of your body – including your glutes, hamstrings, and lower back – we help you develop strength, stability, and proper posture. From deadlift variations to hip thrusts, pulldowns, and rows, we integrate a variety of exercises that activate and strengthen your posterior chain while addressing specific muscle imbalances.

OUR RESULTS

  • What can I say about Shane and WhittleStrength? That I'm grateful for his guidance, knowledge, patience and support in my fitness journey. Signing up with Shane was one of the best decisions I've ever made. He's a very approachable, positive and supportive trainer that informs you and genuinely wants you to succeed. Making a commitment to train is hard all by itself but I never dreaded going to train with Shane, It's a great environment to workout in, no judgments just support. WhittleStrength is his own facility with top of the line fitness equipment. He custom tailors quality workouts that rotate regularly. I've been an active member of WhittleStrength since May 2022 and in this time frame Shane has helped me achieve my fitness goals. So far I've lost 20 lbs, a total of 4% body fat and it's only just beginning. I've now committed to a year with Shane because it's a no-brainer, I see results. Don't think about it, give it a try, you won't regret it.

    Miguel Rodriguez

  • Shane Whittle has coached me for the past year and it’s been a pleasure learning from him. He’s taught me proper nutritional habits which fits my body type and physique and during training sessions has helped me improve my form and technique. Unlike many other trainers I’ve worked with Shane is not condescending and disrespectful when answering questions and is willing to demonstrate any motion/activity without hesitation. This type of attitude has increased my level of trust with Shane, and I’ve noticed, also brings a level of confidence to members of our training group. Shane is experienced, motivational, supportive and a phenomenal trainer. I highly recommend him.

    Blessing Aimuan

  • Shane has an extensive background and knowledge base on what it takes to achieve your desired results both from a nutritional and exercise perspective. He really works with you to understand your goals, as well as tailors the program to you as you go through it in real time. This way, appropriate and impacting adjustments can be made to achieve tangible results. He's always up for a challenge (I say this as someone who eats a Plant Based diet only) and will work with clients no matter dietary preferences or exercise limitations. Shane is very professional, responsive, and thorough! A great trainer to work with!

    Alanna Gomez

  • Working with Shane was the most productive time I have ever spent in the gym. I got results--fast. His training program with me was totally custom, designed just with me in mind. I have respiratory issues and some limitations and he was always ready with a work around that left me exhausted but really pumped! During my workouts with him, his attention was always focused on me and my response to training. Can't get any better. Plus, he's a really friendly fellow. Cheers to anyone who hires his services. You are on your way!

    Steve Eveland

  • Shane whipped me into shape in 3 months. Lost 6lbs of fat and gained 2lbs of muscle. He definitely knows what he's doing, and truly cares about his clients' progress. He delivers quality workouts, and provides exceptional value in his nutrition knowledge, improving one's body composition, and helping you achieve your goals faster. Highly recommend working with him to achieve your fitness goals. Shane will customize the perfect workout routine for you and coach you to improve your nutrition through manageable steps.

    Naira Aliyeva

  • Shane is a true professional personal trainer. His facility is owned, operated, and managed by him. New and advanced equipment combined with his guidance and planned workouts will definitely help you advance to your physical and nutritional goals. As a client and certified personal trainer of many years, I can definitely attest to Shane's knowledge, methods, and skills.

    Michael Matthew

  • I can't speak more highly of Shane. Personally, he's a stand-up and approachable guy that can get along with anyone. He has all of the credentials you would want in a trainer and has been to some of the best classes in the industry. As a trainer he creates custom programming based on the individual client's goals, anthropometrics, and biomechanics. My experience is that he does not use a cookie cutter approach and tailors all aspects of the programming to the client he is working with. His personal gym is equipped with the best and most cutting edge equipment in the industry in my opinion (Every piece of Prime fitness equipment you would want). Combining Shane's gym, programming, coaching, and methods for training together has provided me with a great experience and I would highly recommend his services to anyone.

    Joseph Earhart

  • I found a new and revived appreciation for the gym after working with Shane over the last several months. Gym workouts can get old on your own, but working with Shane, I find myself excited about getting into the gym and working hard to reach the results I am looking for. Thanks, Shane!

    Conlon McCarthy

  • Shane is my personal trainer and I couldn't have wished for a better trainer! Motivational, encouraging, courteous and knowledgeable.

    Tarek Badawy

  • Shane is an excellent trainer who takes the time to get to know his clients, what they do well, and their challenges. I've suffered from a back condition and Shane was able to customize my exercises to help me compensate for that condition and then helped me improve both my strength and my form. He is extremely knowledgeable and friendly and highly recommended.

    Davis Rosser

  • I have been training with Shane for almost 4 months. He has provided me with such insight and motivation to reach my fitness goals that I know I couldn’t have done it without him. His availability to answer any question I have, the workout schedule which works seamlessly in with my busy work schedule, and his knowledge of supplements have helped me reach where I am today, and I don’t plan on stopping. Thank you Shane!

    Alex Shaw

  • I have been a client of Shane for almost 2 years. I have lost nearly 30 lbs and have double the weight I can lift in all aspects. Losing weight while still gaining muscle has been a huge accomplishment with the help of Shane. Shane is a great combination of being patient with his clients and motivating them at the same time. He is always there to assist and answer any questions you may have. I recently tore my meniscus, so the leg classes were a bit rough. Shane was able to tweak leg day for me so I am still strengthening my legs without putting too much on my knee. Shane is a great trainer and would highly recommend him!

    Brian Colan

  • I have trained with Shane for over a year and a half. Shane has helped me lose over 10 kg of weight and overcome weight related diseases. He knows his stuff whether it's getting the most out of an exercise or nutrition. He switches up the exercises every 5-6 weeks so a workout with Shane is never boring! More importantly, he is very warm and fun to talk to. He is always listening to his clients and always delivers a great piece of advice in a way that his clients can follow. But I guess most importantly, his taste in workout music is 💯! If you're serious about changing how you look and feel, I would gladly recommend Shane as trainer!

I have no doubt that under Shane's guidance that one will reach their fitness goals. I highly recommend Shane!

Thank you Shane for being a great coach!!

    Ahmed Rostom

  • Shane is easily one of the best fitness instructors and coaches I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. During my time working with him, I’ve felt stronger and healthier than I have in two decades. Shane’s knowledge and passion for sharing that knowledge with a always positive attitude and demeanor is second to none! I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to learn from Shane how to lift/workout properly and recover to take care of my body for the haul. No quick fixes here, but follow his instructions over time and you will be on your path to a healthier body and lifestyle.

    Chris Hornbecker

  • Shane is a fantastic coach. He's friendly, calm, knows when to push/motivate, and he's the same person every time he walks into session. He loves helping people with their fitness goals, and it's obvious through his work ethic and passion for people. Shane not only helped me get stronger physically, he helped me build self-confidence in my daily life as well. Thanks for everything Shane!

  • Shane was my personal trainer over a period of 18 months. During that time and under his coaching I was able to meet and exceed my personal strength and weight goals. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the principles of healthy resistance training, proper form, dynamic workouts, and nutrition. Beyond his ability to deliver results, he is an engaging workout partner that pushes you when you can and should do more. I strongly recommend him to anyone who is looking for an exceptional personal trainer.

    Josh Custer

  • Shane is a very knowledgeable, amazing and patient coach! He really cares about who you are as a person - beyond just fitness.

His ultimate goal is that you feel confident and be capable of working out on our own! Highly highly recommend Shane!

    Anny Lin

  • Shane is a phenomenal coach and trainer. Coach and trainer gets misused often as there are “coaches” out there. Shane is the Gold Standard.

If you are looking for someone to get you into shape hire Shane and I promise you your life will never be the same again.

    Matt Balducci

    Brad Faas

  • Shane Whittle cares like no other trainer. I've had the immense pleasure of knowing Shane for a long time, and just like one of his core principles, being a trainer isn't just an activity, it's a lifestyle for him. Shane puts an incredible amount of effort and time into crafting plans and diets specifically geared towards your success, because at the end of the day he truly wants to see you succeed. If he is not in the gym working with clients, then he's researching and studying cutting edge training programs to ensure his clients are getting the absolute best. Being a client of Shane's was one of the best experiences I have had so far in my life. Just saying Shane is a great trainer will not do it justice, there is no other trainer on the planet like Shane Whittle, and if you want to shift, not just your workouts, but your lifestyle to the next level, then reach out to him as soon as possible.

    John Chalk

  • Shane is an experienced personal trainer who’s attention to detail is unmatched. He believes in proper technique that avoids injury in order to reach the optimal level of lifelong health, fitness, and mobility. In Addition, Shane is always willing to help his clients overcome obstacles that hinder progress. I highly recommend Shane as a personal fitness trainer if you are serious about making life long changes in your physique and mobility.

    LaToya Reynolds

  • Shane is great. He understands the science of weight loss and muscle building, and he delivers results. He whipped me into shape for summer in less than two months - not by spending inordinate amounts of time in the gym, but rather by working out smarter. He puts a lot of emphasis on good technique, which will vary depending on your specific fitness goals (e.g. weight loss, strength, muscle growth, etc). Under his guidance, my body composition changed week to week, and I saw dramatic improvements in my posture in a matter of weeks. Looking forward to picking up with him again soon!

    Ed Patru

  • Very knowledgeable. Has multiple certifications and degrees pertaining to fitness and nutrition. Programs are challenging but awesome, such great results from the training program and nutrition programs. Is able to program for different goals and different fitness levels. Highly recommend!

    Casey Fleming

  • It may sound cliche, but when it comes to Shane's work ethic he is probably one of the most detail oriented people I've worked with. His attention to detail in the tasks he takes on makes him worth his weight in gold. If he can make time in his demanding schedule to take on your task at hand, hiring him is a no-brainer.

    Ryan Demorest

  • Shane is an excellent trainer that knows exactly how to get you to your fitness goals while making it fun and enjoyable, instead of feeling like a burden or chore. As a chiropractor, I have referred numerous patients to him. I trust Shane to coach people the correct way to return to strength training, avoid injuries, and enhance performance.

    Tommy Cathell

    Jeff Whittle

  • I was introduced to Shane through my doctor and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to meet their nutrition and fitness goals. His workouts are varied and he spends the time to explain the form and I have learned the importance of the tempo. I track both my workouts and meal through his awesome app in which he reviews and informs me of areas to improve. I've been challenged but not in an intimidating way. Shane is so encouraging and helps me meet my goals in a very natural way.

    Sarah Nasser

  • Shane is awesome. He accommodates all ages and levels of activity or non activity in my case. I recommend him to anyone who wants to ease back into fitness but still be challenged every workout. His insight into supplements and diet are also very helpful.

    Marcel Messing

  • Shane is a great trainer who listens and adapts to what his customers need. He has an app to follow through on training and does annual check ups to see if you are on the right path to your goals. He works hard to make sure you are getting where you need to go and he’s always there to help! I would recommend him to anyone who is looking to meet serious goals.

    Tarek Badawy

  • Shane was just what I was looking for. Someone with patience and knowledge of both the physical and mental. He put me on a path I was searching for starting over in my forties. He not only trains the body but the mind as well. When searching for a personal trainer he is the 10 out of 10.

    Joey Guider

  • Shane is a very knowledgeable trainer who really understands the fundamentals of fitness and can truly get you results as long as you put in the work. In addition to fitness knowledge, Shane also has great nutritional advice fit to help you reach your goals. The equipment and weights in the gym are top of the line, and no expense is spared.
