My Training Experience with Joey at Silicon Valley Athletics!! My experience training with Joey has been one of the best, most fulfilling experiences of my life. I have been in athletic and training environments since I was in a running school as little girl in China and I must say that Joey is by far the best trainer I have had. It is obvious that he really cares about making you the best you can be. He is so professional, friendly and knowledgeable. So many trainers just go through the motions but not Joey.
Joey knows that success doesn’t happen overnight and I want to thank Joey for supporting me and pushing me when things are challenging. He is with me every step of the way, supporting me and encouraging me in the pursuit of my dream. When I first started training with Joey I was at 24% body fat and I was preparing for my first Figure Show. I had only 3 months to get ready and really no idea about cutting, posing, supplements and muscle gain. Joey to the rescue! From intense early morning training sessions (53 reps on my birthday!) to attending all of the competitions with me. San Jose, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Orlando, Las Vegas, South Carolina and the international show Amateur Olympia in Beijing. Joey makes sure that I am as ready to compete as I can be! Joey is the most motivated and hard working trainer that I know. Starting his day at 4am, taking lunch with his girls and then back to training. Weekends too.
He is highly dedicated and goal oriented. This beautiful new gym is a testament to his hard work and dedication. I am so happy for and proud of Joey. YOU DID IT! All of your hard work paid off.
Your excellent and dedicated trainers on your staff as well as your clients show that we really are a big family. You worked so hard to give us a great place to work out where we feel welcome and challenged. You treat each of us so well. What I love most about Joey is how caring he is. You go the extra mile to help us become the best we can be and I can’t thank you enough. I love training with Joey. He is the best example of how wonderful people can be when they do what they love. Thank you for the courage and guidance that continues to push me forward on my journey. Congratulations on your new gym Joey! ...
Read moreMy high school aged son and I have been training at Silicon Valley Athletics since the beginning and with Toussaint for a couple years. This is my review of Toussaint and the facility.
Toussaint: Excellent trainer with a fun and motivating personality. He always has a workout plan in place that I can see on the gym app way before the workout. Toussaint demonstrates the exercises and provides any feedback necessary on every repitition. My son is developing great form in all the exercises and is continually improving. This is important to me because I want him to learn proper technique from the beginning so he reduces his chance of injuring himself when he lifts weight at school or with his friends. Workouts are challenging and accomplish way more than we would ever be able to do independently. We do a lot of strength training and are continually getting stronger. The app the gym uses tracks all of our metrics (max, past workouts, times). With the metrics, Toussaint wastes no time in getting things set up.
Facility: This facility is top notch. This location was gutted and built from scratch and all equipment has been strategically placed. All the equpment is newer and always working properly. There are plenty of weights, machines, benches, workout stations, etc. There are fresh towels, cups, and a cold water dispenser.
People lose 3-8% of muscle mass per decade after age 30 and even more after age 60. Currently over 50, I have zero plans for that to happen. I will continute to work with Toussaint at SVA and see steady improvements instead.
Toussaint and Silicon Valley Athletics get my highest...
Read moreSilicon Valley Athletics is an Excellent Gym. If you are looking for personal training in the South Bay, Silicon Valley Athletics will exceed your expectations.
One of the BEST trainers at Silicon Valley Athletics is Joey. Joey is super friendly, amazing trainer. Joey is great at listening to what you need and customizing the workout for where you are, while pushing you hard enough to go a little farther than you thought you could. Always gives good pointers, and also knows a lot about nutrition, and gives great food advice if you ask for it. Great dude with a good heart and wants to see you achieve your goals. I'd encourage you to reach out and give him a try. You will get results!
