Fitness Architects

Fantastic experience: My wife and I have been seeing Omar for the last six months twice per week. We are both late 50's and had not been active for a while before starting. Omar has transformed us with his careful, fun and inspiring approach. Yes, we have been sore from time to time but we always come back for more. We both feel better, more flexible, stronger and better able to enjoy our life outside of the gym. Old, longstanding aches and pains are disappearing. Omar keeps our time together fun by listening to what our bodies are telling us and working with this information to target and strengthen areas that need it. For Omar and us, its all about balance: what we do in the gym makes hiking, working in the garden, house work and working in my shop better and more enjoyable. If you have been looking to make a change and want a great and knowledgeable trainer to guide you, look no further!

Fantastic experience: I was looking for an opportunity to get back to training. My friend introduced me to Omar. Had private session to go over details after what started to come to the gym for a bootcamp session with others and fell in love. You know that feeling when you want to work out and wait for that day to come? Well...that's how it was for me. Omar is very knowledgeable and changes routing every time, considering issues you might have with certain body parts etc. On top of that he added additional services to the studio which is nice as well like Pilates, yoga, breathing and ELDOA. Thank you Omar!

Fantastic experience: I'm not sure why people in Vancouver work out anywhere else. Fitness Architects has everything you need, the price is right, the people are motivated and friendly, the classes and training are inclusive and well run. Omar is passionate and knowledgeable. We've been training together for a decade and he's trained me through a pregnancy and the post partum rebuild.

Fantastic experience: Whatever the reason you want to train, to strengthen your muscles, fix your back pain, improve your snowboarding or just get ripped, Coach O is the best!!!

Fantastic experience: Awesome trainer. Every workout is different, exciting and pushes you! I wouldn’t get the results on my own. I really see a difference when we train together compared to solo or other trainers!

Fantastic experience: Coach O is my first experience with the world of gyms. To say I was apprehensive when starting is putting it mildly. He eased me into working out with enormous patience, kindness, knowledge, and humour. He helped me more than my Physio with back pain. Now he has me actually liking working out, which is a miracle.

Fantastic experience: Been working with Omar for a long time, he is like a brother to me! Amazing passion his work, always learning more about how to get you more sore. Would recommend to anyone looking for a supportive, all knowing wise coach.

Fantastic experience: Always has my best interest in mind, really cares about seeing you reach your goals, always makes the time to help out even with the little things 10/10

Fantastic experience: The most professional and knowledgeable coach that opened my eyes to physical optimization

Fantastic experience: Coach O has been seeing me as part of a group of friends of mine (what better way to workout?!?). It’s honestly, one of my favourite days of the week. His workouts and training are thoughtfully designed and I am so proud of the strength I’ve gained (finally - some arm definition). Don’t expect a typical “Bootcamp” program. He pushes us in a way that is supportive and builds self-confidence. On days when we’ve had the odd kiddo with one of us, he welcomes them and keeps on eye on them (and does some kid friendly moves) while we are train….and that’s a big deal for a mama who needs that time for ourselves and mental health.

Fantastic experience: Coach O is personable, encouraging and makes each workout fun. I’ve seen people of all fitness levels and with different body types feel welcome and motivated to be the strongest version of themselves. Also, I’m not afraid of deadlifts anymore. Thanks Coach!

Fantastic experience: Omar’s knowledge and dedication makes all the difference!

Fantastic experience: OMG I am effing sore! Coach O knows his stuff. Amazing work outs, always changing always super fun classes ! Highly recommend. I have been going for years now.

Fantastic experience: 10/10 would recommend Coach Omar - the work outs are never boring and I feel challenged as well as supported. I’ve recommended to many friends and all have come back for a second work out when their schedules permit. Again, 10/10 would recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic experience: Coach O’s workouts not only focus on building muscle but also flexibility, stability and balance. Great workouts - I love the variety.

Fantastic experience: I have worked in the fitness industry for 25 years. Coach O is the best trainer I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He is highly educated and experienced. He listens to his clients and meets them where they are at. With Coach O I never worry about injuries. He takes good care of me and knows the fine balance between challenging me and keeping me safe. The critical thing is that the workouts are so fun that I forget how hard I’m working. The proof is in the results: I’m leaner, stronger, and happier since I started working with Coach O.
