Davis Fitness Method — Local services in Seattle

I've been into fitness for over a decade. Hitting the gym, lifting, cardio, diet. Tried all the shortcuts and hacks; Atkins, keto, intermittent fasting- all with varying degrees of success. Never have I seen the results that I've seen with Steven. The dude takes all comers, listens to your goals, and delivers results. Period. I challenge anyone to find a more knowledgeable, more inspiring, more skilled trainer than Steven.

You know those trainers you see at your gym who look sloppy and soft and you wonder if they've ever even worked out and do all the helicopter coaching standing right over you but can't tell you why it is you're doing what you're doing?? Well Steven is the exact opposite. He's ripped and can answer just about any question about what he has you doing and why he has you doing it.

He's not going to watch your every single set of every single exercise; but he's going to watch you until you get it right, guide you towards corrections, and continue to tweak and adjust your workout as you progress.

If you like to geek out on fitness (like me) he can tell you all about FRC or Palumboism or why certain diets haven't been working out for you.

He's also just a cool, kind, down to Earth and humble person who I've never seen or heard make anyone feel stupid or bad for not knowing something about fitness.

Like with anything else, you'll get out of it what you put into it. Steven is like one of those big corporate 401K plans; he'll match your effort every step of the way. You give a hundred, he'll give you a hundred. You reach out via text, he'll reply. You need him to accommodate an issue (and you're polite about it), he's got your back.

You got an injury? Think you CAN'T do something? I've had "back/hip issues" for years. Never thought I could do a squat or a deadlift. Nah son, Steven helped me with that too.

The environment is CLEAN (can't stress that enough), SAFE (mask and temperature check required), and it's fun.

Without a doubt working with Steven and the Davis Fitness Method has been an amazing experience. I've learned more in 5 months than I have in 15 years listening to every meathead I've come across in the gym who thought they could teach me something just because they could bench 250.

I know I've written too much but dude has literally reignited my passion for fitness and working out in way I didn't think possible.

The best gift you can give yourself is good health and a great body. I've been at this since I was 22 (I'll be 40 in December) and investing in the RIGHT personal trainer is the best decision I've ever made.

If you're thinking about a personal trainer, or your "New Year/New You" plan has gone off the rails, or you're just like "damn, this dude is really on one about Davis Fitness Method..." hit him up.

Alright, I'm done....

A gym can have all the equipment in the world, but will still only be as good as the trainers it employs.

Although the facility is great and offers a robust selection of equipment that meets my needs, my favorite part of the Davis Fitness Method gym are the holistically health-inspired, fitness and people loving staff that keep the place running.

While I personally work with Tris, I’ve had the opportunity to meet and witness each of the trainers working at this facility. Across the board, one thing is apparent over all else - the people that work with you truly care about your goals, your progress, and your overall wellbeing. It makes a huge difference in experience, and makes showing up for yourself that much easier. At this gym you can be sure your trainer is someone else who is also in your corner, cheering you on and reminding you of your capacity for challenging things.

My first and foremost goal joining the Davis Fitness Method was simply to enjoy moving my body again, and not dreading the thought of working out. My trainer Tris has been instrumental in returning me to the joy that comes with movement, tailoring my workouts in a responsive, yet focused way to help me achieve my original goal and identify new ones. I can honestly say my sessions are some of the things I look forward to most in my week, which was not the case when I initially (and somewhat begrudgingly) enrolled myself. Tris has worked with me to find aspects of my workout that make me look forward to returning to each day.

In addition to a renewed disposition to exercise, Tris helps me understand how each movement correlates to my body functions. It helps me understand and create the “mind-body connection” that allows me to feel more confident with each piece of equipment and its respective movement, and how it correlates with the muscle I’m working, and its function. I honestly can say I learn something new with each session.

All said I feel privileged and grateful to work out here, and highly recommend this gym for beginners, folks that have trained all their life, and people looking for a renewed sense of excitement for their...

I have never enjoyed going to the gym so much in my life. Okay, I've never enjoyed going to the gym before at all. Coach Tris listened to my goals, my likes, and my dislikes and has kept me engaged and interested since Jan 2024. I was looking to get stable and strong and I feel pretty damn great.

Me: body fell apart between the pandemic and other depressing life events, worried about losing bone density, terrible at habit formation, really turned off by anything that feels like body shaming or hard selling. I hate treadmills.

Davis Fitness Method: Bright and clean space with greenery, quirky decor, and a big progress pride flag. All the equipment you could want; I do small group and don't have trouble getting access. Steven is constantly upgrading everything. They also have a lot of recovery tools - Tris has been able to help with any stiffness or soreness as part of my sessions (when it comes up, which is rare). The atmosphere is friendly and often a conversation will include everyone there. I don't think I've gone to a session where I didn't laugh. It's very queer-friendly and I think Tris might be the only white employee? Anyway, it's a safe space where you can be your authentic self and there's real diversity in the community.

I've worked with Steven and Long when Tris takes time off, and they're great too. They're all nerdy about the science of their work and making sure you understand why you're doing what you're doing; I see the skeletal and muscular diagrams on the walls get referred to on the regular.

I have no idea if there's a scale in the gym because weight loss isn't one of my goals. No one has ever made me weigh in, and there are no leader boards or contests ...other than knowing that the app Tris uses to track my program will send me a t-shirt when I've lifted a million pounds. Looking forward to...
