Everyone there was super nice and supportive! I worked with Madison and she was great - knowledgeable, kind, and motivating. I would definitely recommend for anyone, especially if you're new to working out and looking for guidance!

Couldn't ask for a better group of people. Originally started at USC for just general strength training because I was getting older and knew (my girlfriend knew actually lol) I needed something to keep my body in shape. After being hooked up with Kyle we started on just basic training. After a few months I asked if he had anything that would help with snowboarding, he told me he'd look into it and figure something out.
Every year, the first few times out I could usually ride for a day then my lower body was toast for a few days.
We started with some exercises based around the lower body specifically for snowboarding. I finally got out for my first time this winter and after the first day I have zero muscle fatigue and am looking forward to going out again tomorrow. Thanks to Kyle and the team at USC, I can't recommend them enough!

Prior to joining Upstate Strength and Conditioning, I had zero lifting experience and little motivation to maintain a consistent workout routine. My time at USC, has definitely changed my attitude towards the gym.
Everyday my workout is programmed and waiting for me -one of my biggest excuses to not working out, was no longer valid.
USC has several knowledgeable trainers who are available to help when needed and even offer 1:1 sessions (shoutout to Nicole and Kyle!!).
In nearly one year since working with Kyle, I am up ~15lbs and hitting PRs every week. He is very knowledgeable and considerate of your goals, physical limitations and also your time.
I would definitely recommend trying out USC!

I have been working with Kyle for a little over 4 months now and look forward to training and hitting the gym every week. I have spent months off and on in the past paying for bigger chain-gyms and not utilizing my membership due to slight injuries/discomfort after hitting the gym on my own, and not really feeling like I knew what I was doing (or if I was doing the exercises properly). I finally made up my mind to find a gym with a personal trainer, and couldn't be happier! Kyle has worked with me to really personalize my workouts and help me train in a way that I am confident in the safety and efficacy of what I am doing. I have noticed positive results both visually, on the scale, increased strength, and simply in terms of feeling better physically and mentally in my everyday work and life. I would 10/10 recommend training with Kyle and joining Upstate Strength & Conditioning.

I have been training with Kyle for 5 months and can't say enough about him or Upstate Strength and Conditioning. The facility is always clean, bright, and welcoming. It's easy to be inspired by Kyle's enthusiasm, knowledge, and level of professionalism. I look forward to my 3 weekly sessions and am loving the results!

I started at Upstate Strength and Conditioning in February of this year after several years of not working out and only being moderately active. After working with Kyle LaBrake for the past few months I’m approaching Personal Bests in nearly all lifting and strength categories. Having the guidance of a trainer and being exposed to a huge variety of lifts and exercises has helped me steadily get stronger and feel 1000x better physically. I plan on continuing my training program for the foreseeable future and would recommend Upstate Strength and Conditioning to anyone and everyone who may be interested.

I don’t know where to begin when it comes to writing this review about Upstate Strength and Conditioning and my personal trainer Kyle LaBrake. I’ve been seeing Kyle for roughly 4 months now and his dedication and commitment to my personal fitness goals and well being has been paramount for me on the road to meet my fitness goals and losing weight. Since seeing Kyle I’ve lost weight, he made some adjustments to my meals and I’m putting on muscle and seeing the gains! I highly recommend Upstate Strength and Conditioning to anyone who’s has fitness and healthy living goals and seeing Kyle! You will not be disappointed! I’ve included a pic of my progress. Looking forward to seeing what the next 4 months brings and beyond!

I've been going to Upstate Strength and conditioning for personal training sessions since October and I have nothing but good things to say! I decided that it was finally time to change my life for the better and step into the health/fitness world and start my weight loss journey! When I started I was out of shape/barely exercising and wasn't eating good food because I didn't have the best relationship with it. Now I work out 5 days a week and I'm more mindful of what I'm eating. I still have a long way to go with my weight loss journey but I don't regret my decision and I'm not looking back because I love the mindset I have now and I feel great. I work with Nicole and she is awesome! She is willing to work with you and will accommodate your needs! And the owner Kevin has a bunch of equipment for you to use and keeps the facility extremely clean! Overall upstate strength and conditioning is a cool place to work out!

I have been training with Kyle for several months now. I decided to try personal training to help with stiffness and pain and to get myself active again after not being so active during the pandemic. I look and feel better, I’m stronger , my balance has improved, along with my energy levels! I’m so grateful to have found upstate strength and conditioning and Kyle!

Great gym, well maintained equipment and its clean!! Kyle has kept me coming back. Even with once a week for now, better than nothing! I feel its worth it and contributes to overall health and wellness. I like Kyle's style of training, approach, flexibility in scheduling one on one training, and he also shows he cares and enjoys what he does too. Thank you Kyle, and keep up the great work:)

5/5 stars is not enough for Upstate Strength and Conditioning. They deserve at least 12 stars. I had the pleasure of working with Nicole this summer and it was the best experience. The facility is clean, well kept, and has a great variety of equipment. The staff is friendly and greeted me by name when I came in. They were super flexible with scheduling my training sessions. The sessions pushed me and were tailored to me. I absolutely recommend this place for anyone looking to make a change, learn new things, or just wants to see what they are capable of.

I’ve been working with Nicole at USC for about 6 weeks. The workouts she has planned for me are challenging and effective. I have noticed positive differences in my strength and body composition from the consistent 1-on-1 training schedule. All of the staff is friendly and helpful and the facility is spotless. This is a great place to workout!

I recently came across Upstate Strength and Conditioning and I’m so glad I gave it a try! If you are looking for a clean super friendly professional gym that has everything you need to get in a great workout quickly it definitely has that but what it exceeded my expectations in is it’s personal training! I have done one on one training before at other gyms and it was good but now I know how it feels to really have someone design a specific program based on my needs and goals. I can’t say enough about how amazing working with Kyle is!! He is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of fitness from concentrating on proper form and the right way to build up your strength to proper realistic diet to get the results you want! Kyle has taken the time to show that he cares and is committed to helping me reach my fitness goals every step of the way!! And I am absolutely amazed how much he can pack into a half hour!! I look so forward to going to every session and I know working with Kyle will make all the difference in my results! Go check out Upstate Strenth and Conditioning and book a session with Kyle you will be soo glad you did!! 💪😁💪

I've been working with Kyle for a little while and I've been very impressed with how knowledgeable he is. On top of that, I've never had a trainer care so much about results that work for me, not necessarily following a "one size fits all model." Definitely a data driven guy and one I would trust to get anyone in shape.

I’m so glad to have found Upstate Strength & Conditioning! The owner Kevin and his staff are amazing! The gym is clean, quiet, and professional and individual needs are identified and catered to! I have been working with Nicole for one on one training for 5 months. Four years ago I suffered a head injury and found it difficult to exercise. Nicole has developed a unique program for me and not only have I lost weight, I have gained, muscle, stamina, and most importantly balance! Joining Upstate was one of the BEST decisions I have ever made for myself! 🤩

Kevin is awesome. I’m a college student and threw the pandemic he was very willing to work with me both time wise and to get me to the point I wanted to be at. He told me it takes time. And he was right. I would recommend him to anyone who’s looking for an awesome strength coach.

Upstate Strength and Conditioning is very clean in a great location in the heart of Scotia.
Kevin has been a asset to my daughter who plays softball. Because of Kevins training you can see a difference in my daughters agility on the field. Not to mention he has also helped her build self confidence on and off the field.

Our son's experience with Kevin at Upstate has been phenomenal. The increase in strength and confidence, and the physical transformation has been awesome. Kevin is a good role model and someone that our son enjoys working with. He motivates him to do the things he needs to do to reach his goals. We would recommend him without hesitation to anyone.

I'm a high school track and XC runner. Kevin has had me doing strength training according to my needs, changing over to injury prevention workouts as the spring season is approaching. He keeps the workouts challenging but fun. I'd definitely recommend USC for other athletes looking to improve their sport or just to gain durability.

Kevin is a great, knowledgeable, professional trainer who’ll customize a program for your specific needs tracking your progress and adjusting the workouts as necessary. There’s also a family discount so my daughter and I train together but at different levels and often different workouts. Kevin keeps track of it all and makes sure we do each exercise correctly. We absolutely love USC.

Kevin focused on my personal needs. He makes every day a challenge, and focuses on a whole body conditioning. it’s not like an experience you can get from the internet, or from your gym buddy, he is a professional in his field, so the work done is top quality. Aside from that, he is great at encouragement, and is super easy to get along with. Great gym, great trainer, great workout every time.

I definitely see a positive difference in my endurance & strength! Kevin is personable & professional and "knows his stuff". He treats clients like individuals and establishes related goals to maximize our health & related needs. Kevin is a pivotal piece to my family's health program.

Kevin is extremely professional and knowledgeable at every single session. I can ask him anything and realistically select any goal and he will help me achieve this. So far he has helped me reach my first goal with ease and i am looking forward to continuing working with Kevin in the future to achieve all of my short and long term fitness goals.
I feel much better since Kevin has been training me both mentally and physically.
Highly recommend Upstate Strength & Conditioning!

Kevin is amazing at what he does and he's extremely knowledgable when it comes to the anatomy of each muscle in the body. I highly recommend going here, I was able to gain so much knowledge on how to properly exercise and on how to bulk up on muscle. I was able to reach my goals with Kevin, and Kevin made sure that when I was done, I knew exactly what I had to do to maintain a proper exercise plan. Again, Highly recommend!!!!

It has been just a few weeks. Kevin has been amazing since day one. He is very personable, understanding, and willing to do whatever he can to make it work for you. He truly cares about working with you and your goals. He starts from the foundation up and my foundation especially my balance was horrible. I have become stronger already and I feel a large difference in how I feel. If you are looking for a trainer who truly wants to help you not like any other trainer, who’s affordable and will personalize workouts for you and your goals, come here! You will not regret it.

I absolutely love working out with Kevin! He is bar far the best trainer I have ever worked with. He listens to my needs, mixes things up so I don’t become bored, and challenges me in every session. It has now been a year since working out with him. In the beginning I hated working out and now I love it. I work out with him three times a week and am training for a mud run. Thank you Kevin!!!
