Exercise has always been in my blood. I started weight lifting in 1982, and was lucky enough to have one hour (!) of training with a female trainer (!). After that, I was on my own with training and, as a consequence, hurt my shoulder badly. But it healed, or so I thought. Fast forward, Honolulu Club. Aaron was my trainer there, and initially I was skeptical as I wanted a female trainer. Boy oh boy, did I luck out with Aaron! 14 years at the Honolulu Club training together. Aaron is dependable, personable, professional, great thinking on his toes. For example, when I slacked exercising at the Club, he offered to split an hour to get me into the Club exercising. Basically, the biggest step is getting you into the Gym!!! And it worked! Another example, my old shoulder injury reared its ugly head and Aaron adapted our workout for that. Within a year, I was pain free, and as of today I still have full range of motion! How is that for consistency and patience and just do it attitude, all ushered by Aaron! Fast forward today, after 18 years of working out together, I have upped my spiel from 2 hours per week with Aaron to 4 hours a week. Consistency is key and he makes it easy looking to do weight lifting. Aaron is highly knowledgable in exercise physiology, kinesology, patient in building up strength, listens to feedback, and keeps exercises interesting and mixed-up. Even after 18 years and, by now, 4 hours a week of training, I can confidently state that I am not bored one bit by weight lifting and in fact look forward to my workout sessions with Aaron.

Aaron trained me several years ago at Hon Club and prepared me for the Fittest Executive Honolulu contest. I placed in Honorable Mention on my first try! He pushes you hard if that is your passion but also monitors what you are doing and how you are doing it. No nonsense style and will give you what you deserve in a trainer. When you reach your goal or a level that he cannot improve for you - he will end the training. He does not take advantage of you if he cannot provide any more value to what you want in your fitness. For that, I totally respect him. Glad to see he is continuing his passion, which is fitness for all of Hawaii.

I'm a longtime client of Aaron's. I tried other trainers before and often found myself quitting. Aaron will work with you, at your own pace, so you can reach your long or short term goals.
