“I don't give praise or accolades lightly but wanted to share this. I've worked with trainers previously but for the first time ever, I am seeing incredible results. I started working with Josh and I am not in the best shape I have ever been in! Josh will tailor a program to your goals, is very skilled and knowledgeable and is a true professional. If you live in Chicago or it's suburbs and want a fabulous trainer who actually gets results contact Josh! Warning he will make you work (which is a good thing!)”

“For anyone looking for an EXCEPTIONAL personal trainer in the NorthShore Area:
I started training with Josh 8 months ago after working with a personal trainer for 2.5 years at LifeTime Fitness in Northbrook. When I started, I was 3 months postpartum by cesarean section. I’ve had significantly better results in only 8 months than I did in my 2.5 years at Lifetime. It needs to be said that his extensive knowledge and extreme attention to detail allows him to reach his clients goals efficiently and safely. I have nothing but good things to say about Josh and STRONGLY recommend his services.”

”Just shy of 62, I decided I needed to work on my strength and balance, build muscle tone, and prevent further bone loss. It's been 4 months now, and I'm so grateful to my trainer, Josh Walinski. While on the one hand he's coaching professional athletes, he's very patient and encouraging in teaching fundamentals. He's very attuned to ensuring correct form to guard against injury. The progress I'm making is exciting, I'm having fun, and my sessions with Josh are the highlight of my week. I highly recommend Josh to anyone, regardless of fitness level.”

“Transformative Training with Josh Walinski: A Personalized Path to Strength and Safety
Josh is a game-changer when it comes to personal training. With a master's in exercise physiology, he brings a depth of knowledge that's evident in every aspect of his program. What truly sets Josh apart is his ability to tailor workouts to individual needs, ensuring not only effective movements but also safety.
As someone with a history of low back issues due to a herniated disc, finding a trainer who could help me navigate workouts without aggravating my condition seemed like an impossible task. However, Josh's expertise and thorough evaluation of muscle imbalances have been a revelation. Since working with him, I've been able to exercise daily without experiencing any low back issues. In fact, I can work out twice a day for five to six times a week now without injury. I feel stronger and balanced.
Josh's collaboration with my chiropractor further underscores his commitment to personalized care. Together, they've crafted a program that not only builds strength but also protects my lower back. Thanks to Josh's guidance, I've been able to train all muscle groups with more effective and efficient movements, resulting in significant progress without the fear of injury. Who would have thought deadlifts and RDLs were safe for the lowers back if done correctly!
What's most remarkable is the impact Josh’s training has had on my overall well-being. At 50+, I feel more agile and capable than I have in years, with a real age that belies my years. Josh's approach goes beyond just physical fitness; it's about enhancing quality of life and empowering clients to live their best, healthiest selves.
In summary, Josh is not just a personal trainer; he's a partner in progress, dedicated to helping clients achieve their fitness goals while prioritizing safety and longevity. If you're looking for transformative training that's tailored to your needs, look no further than Josh. He's a true gem in the world of personal fitness.
Huge thank you, Josh. Since I started with you about one and a half years ago, I've been able to maintain an above average fitness level. The gift of health and mobility is priceless! ❤️”
