Momentum Fitness — Local services in New York

I've been working with Marsha for a little over a year now. Prior to that, I was measuring success by - 1) the number I saw on the scale, and 2) the caloric intake on MyFitnessPal. Needless to say, there was a lot of yo-yo-ing, with periods of weight loss, followed by periods of weight gain - no tracking of muscle mass, body composition, lean analysis, muscle-fat analysis -- and no progression plan. I was stuck in the same cardio pattern with no progress -- it was extremely frustrating.

Marsha has helped me pivot my focus to strength, consistency in healthy habits, and longevity. So when she recommended tracking progress via the InBody check at Momentum, I was really curious to start measuring my success outside of just the scale.

When you walk into the gym, it's extremely well-lit and open - with a large space in the center, and specific stations and rooms / offices to the sides. The front desk is your first stop and they're extremely helpful in getting you signed in. This was my first time in a gym since a full year of lockdown so I was impressed to see all the safety measures that Momentum was taking -- everything was squeaky clean, there weren't a lot of people so they were clearly mindful of capacity, and every single person was adhering to the mask rule. I was so relieved! After the InBody, you get your results right away -- and wow -- all the analysis was so illuminating. I can now take that, and make more informed decisions about my diet and fitness program.

I've decided to check my progress via InBody more frequently than just annual so that I can stay on track. And the process at Momentum was so easy-breezy - I'll...

I started training with David Tepattaporn in January after a six-month break due to injury, hoping to learn how to exercise properly and build muscle. With his guidance, I not only recovered but also gained strength and confidence. David makes training very enjoyable — he's positive, encouraging, and has a great way of using your strengths to build up your weaknesses without you even realizing it.

I never saw myself as athletic, but his approach shifted that mindset. For instance, when I doubted my coordination, he'd say, "You’ve got great balance — let’s add a challenge," turning self-doubt into a skill-building moment.

David taught me the true value of a proper warm-up — not just a quick cardio burst, but a 30-minute routine focused on mobility, stability, and full-body engagement. I still use it today. He also showed me how to truly engage my core — not by sucking in, but by bracing with my diaphragm, a game-changer for everyday movement.

Throughout our sessions, he carefully watched my form, made smart adjustments when something didn’t feel right, and explained the “why” behind every movement. I now understand how to warm up, stabilize, lift, and progress exercises in a way that feels smart and safe.

Thanks to David, I feel confident walking into a gym and using barbells — something I never thought I’d say. He’s a fantastic trainer, and I’d recommend him to anyone looking to build a strong, sustainable...

People deserve to know the greatness of Marco!

Marco is a phenomenal trainer &awesome person. I trained with Marco for about two months & never felt healthier or more confident than when I was following his plan. Marco works you hard & encourages clean eating. IT WORKS. I lost weight, toned muscle &am stronger than I can ever remember being. If I hadn't moved to a new city, I would keep training with him for as long as possible. There aren't enough good things to say.

Marco is truly invested in your personal success. On days you don't meet, a text message reminder to make healthy choices will encourage you to stay on track. You set goals together and work hard to reach them. This isn't just some one-size-fits-all program... He will learn your limits and strengths as you train and push you as hard as he knows YOU can go. He does it all with a smile & energy that make you want to push through that one last rep to make him proud. He switches up your routine constantly so you never get bored or tired of the same old thing. He's also a genuinely good person & cares about his athletes. You won't be just another client passing through.

I could go on & on about how amazing he is, but long story short: If you want to train with a genuinely awesome person who is invested in reaching your personal goals, train with Marco. You WILL get results & you will...
