Expérience fantastique: My wife and I decided we needed a personal trainer to kick-start our fitness regime after two years of working from home and losing our motivation to exercise. In the past, whenever we'd go to a gym, we would do cardio and knew very little about lifting weights. Deon has been amazing to work with and has tailored his group workouts to our individual abilities. In addition, he has been accommodating to our wandering schedule, thorough in his explanations, and diligent about gradually introducing the right amount of weight resistance without overloading us. He is knowledgeable, respectful, and a true professional. His gym is spotless and well stocked with all sorts of things we don't even know the names of yet. Sweatylift Gym is one of Blueridge's hidden gems.

Expérience fantastique: When I started I was suffering from awful back pain that had started in the first trimester of my pregnancy, building my strength with Deon was the only thing that helped me after a year of trying it all.

Expérience fantastique: I would recommend Deon as a personal trainer. Deon is approachable, personable, knowledgeable, and has experience training from the top level athlete to those new to lifting (me). Deon’s attention to correct form and gradual increases have made me feel safe to lift heavier and challenge my body more than I thought I would be able to, and he probably gets more stoked than I when I hit a PR! Thanks for the enthusiasm! The gym itself is also very clean and well equipped.

Expérience fantastique: I can't recommend Sweatylift Gym enough! Deon is the most professional trainer that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He builds highly efficient and enjoyable programs. The workouts are tough, but I look forward to each and every one and feel fantastic during and after them. I've made faster progression in both strength and physique than I thought possible. I have no more lower back pain from to my mild scoliosis, and my confidence levels have drastically improved. Aside from being the best trainer, Deon is also a wonderful, funny and charming family man. He made me feel right at home as soon as I joined his gym. If you're looking for the top trainer, look no further!

Expérience fantastique: Deon is awesome, I can’t say enough great things about the beautiful gym space and his approach to weightlifting. My son and I came with zero weightlifting experience and have made great progress after just a few months. He’s knowledgeable, down to earth and a great motivator. As a single mom I really appreciate the flexibility Deon offers when scheduling and the option to double up so my son and I can workout together. Even though we’re there to push ourselves and build strength it’s always an enjoyable and fun atmosphere. We’ll continue to keep the Sweatylift Gym and Deon in our weekly routine.

Expérience fantastique: I received a written program from Deon as I don't live in the area. He was thorough in discussing with me what my goals were, checked and corrected form over zoom, and provided me with a program. I started the program feeling confident after my discussions with him and have made great progress over the past 3 months. He is extremely knowledgeable and quick to respond and provide feedback to videos, and provide alternative options if I'm having issues with a certain exercise. Can't wait to try out the gym next time I'm in Vancouver!

Expérience fantastique: Great gym and amazing coach! I would highly recommend to anyone. The thought of not knowing the proper gym etiquette, lifting techniques, and dealing with the feeling of all eyes are on me while lifting has deterred me from going to a gym for years.
