They really know what they're doing here, If you want to get in the best shape of your life no matter your age (I'm 50) , just follow Vishal's instructions, do the work and the results you want will happen.

I answered an add of a 6 week challenge, and that day changed my life, I walked in weighing 169 pounds, unhappy with myself, and feeling uncomfortable in my own skin, That day Vishal helped me on my new journey, he put me on the right diet and every week checked up on my process, I went to his class 5 times a week and the trainers knew how to push me to what my limits were, I went down to 148 pounds in the 6 weeks. I made new friends, met the best Trainers and my one trainer who really pushed me was Jose Soto. what I am happy about through this process is I loved that I gained muscle, strength, self-assurance, and started loving myself again and it’s because i answered an add of a 6 weeks challenge, I was tired of just hoping for a nice body and hoping for a healthier life style, I answered the ad wanting it , and me wanting it so bad they knew not to let me give up on myself, and I’m happy I met them. now I feel healthier, more energized and feel good about myself again, and now because of Pumpz fitness I won’t let myself go again and I won’t give up on my journey

Pumpz Fitness is life changing. I walked into to train with Coach Vishal and thought after training with other coaches it would be similar to the other experiences I had. It wasn't. Pumpz fitness is a combination of strengthening, sculpting, nutrition and not just having a coach but having a strong warrior spirit beside you helping you on your journey to your best self. In my case it was a best self that was beyond what I thought it was. There is an authentic caring, pushing, and support in that otherwise very challenging journey. I would recommend Pumpz fitness to anyone that wants to reset goals, then reset them higher. In a world of super powers his is real. And that's because he is not only an excellent coach, but one with a kind heart. I am grateful to him- and quite frankly if you appreciate dad jokes and a silliness mixed with fierce warrior, you're gonna agree that he's worth waking up in the morning for and being pushed to become a super hero yourself. Thumbs up- now go get it! It is possible. :-)

I'm truly blessed to have found such wonderful trainers who truly don't play and hold you accountable. After losing 130lbs on my own I needed to start toning up and reaching my weight goals. I've gone to many places but I don't feel the trainers were serious. I reached a point to where I really needed someone to Push me and a place with a great support system. I saw Pumpz Fitness on Facebook and reached out to make an appointment. I met with Vishal who broke down the whole program and one of the first things he said to me that caught my attention was, he said "I really need to know it you are serious about this" he said I take my program very seriously and I don't like to waste time that I can be helping others who are serious about getting healthy etc. After I heard that I knew this guy was serious and this is how serious I should be about losing weight and chss as being my life style. I signed up for the 6 weeK program where I got a customized meal plan, did my body weight and before pictures. I trained with Jose who made the whole 6 weeks so much fun you didn't even know how much you eventually ended up lifting, at the end of the 6 weeks I lost 10lbs. During that six weeks I found new friends, a great support system and I know I annoyed Vishal by texting him every time I had a question. Another plus if you struggled or had questions Vishal did not mind you bugging him, he will always text you back. Because of all of that I signed up for the year program because of these amazing people and because the results I've seen. To date I've lost 20lbs and 3 pant sizes. I'm toning up and feeling amazing. So if you are dead serious about making a change then I recommend Pumpz Fitness. If you aren't and will continue to make excuses then this isn't a program for you.

Found Pumpz on Yelp and decided to give it a shot with the 6 week challenge. I was given a detailed nutrition plan and trained with Rodney Mon-Thurs for an hour with a small group for 6 weeks. I had really great results and I think there are a few reasons for that: 1)The people who signed up were also motivated and great support, 2)There's a lot of accountability when you're working consistently with a good trainer and have weight-checks weekly, 3)The nutrition plan worked for my specific goals and body type. I signed up for more training after the 6 week challenge ended and worked out with Pumpz for ~10 months and lost more than 20lbs and built muscle so that it looked like I lost a lot more. Vishal updated my nutrition plan as I lost weight and had regular check-ins with each of us. I'm not sure I've ever felt as good or strong and would highly recommend this company to anyone who has some goals and needs some help.

Wow! I don’t know how a business like this stays in business... I cancel an appointment in 2018 and then another appointment in 2019 ( over a year later) and they told me I was no longer allowed to book with them. I am a business woman and have a family so sometimes things come up. I will take my money and give it to a business that shows a little compassion. Also “Coach” Vishal is your typical sketchy personal trainer only interested in his time and YOUR money.

I have been working with Pumpz Fitness for about two months now, closer to three and it's the best! At first I was very hesitant given the rep that the gym has. With it being filled with super healthy and fit individuals, I was very surprised to find that the whole experience has been so welcoming! I have now finished the famous 6 week challenge, I'm down 20 lbs and signed an agreement to continue working with Pumps Fitness for the next 6 months! I am super stoked to see where I'll be in the next 6 weeks! If you're looking into personal training Pumpz is the way to go!

They make sure you stay on task with your diet. I strongly recommend Pumpz Fitness for anyone trying to better themselves!

Best personal trainers around! I've had a lot of experience in the gym, as a gym rat, and as an outdoor workout enthusiast, but nothing comes close to the personal attention and amazing results you get with Vishal at ELF. His team is awesome and they're serious about getting you the results you're looking for. Make your fitness a priority and call them. You absolutely will LOVE IT!!

At first I was skeptical about putting $$ up front for the 6 week challenge that started in January, especially because of my recent knee surgery last Oct. But after attending the orientation and speaking with Vishal numerous times and addressing my knee surgery, he assured me that as long as followed my specific diet I would lose the weight and get stronger, all the while paying close attention to my knee on leg days and hit cardio. In the end, I shed 11lbs, 5" off my waist and gained significant strength (i.e. adding 60lbs to my bench press, 20lbs to my deadlift and 40lbs to my squat(box because of my knee). Vishal asked me if I wanted to use my initial deposit to continue personal training, but because of work commitments and location, I declined. He cut me a check right then and there like he promised to all the participants in the beginning. I am forever grateful to Vishal and ELF and would definitely use their services in the future.

I have been working out for over 25 years and consider myself an expert when it comes to weightlifting and nutrition. I never entertained the notion of employing a personal trainer to help me reach my fitness goals. I knew what I was doing in the gym and was strong as an ox.
But after Vishal approached me one day while I was training and told me that he could get me shredded I became intrigued. I noticed immediately that Vishal was very knowledgeable and knew his stuff. Vishal not only assisted me in reaching my fitness goals but made me realize my full potential. Vishal custom made all meal plans and designed an exercise program that was specifically tailored to my body type. I weight 247 lbs when I met Vishal with 20% body fat. A year later I was 193 lbs with 6% body fat and just competed in my first NPC show. The best part is that I did not simply lose weight but was able to maintain almost all of my hard earned muscle.
Vishal’s dedication and motivation are unparalleled. He takes a personal interest in your life and will hold you accountable for your actions. His extensive knowledge in nutrition and body physics is astounding. He will tell you exactly what and when to eat certain foods. I had changed physically to a point where people that had not seen me in a few months did barley recognize me. I have nothing but gratitude and a profound respect for Vishal and his unwavering dedication. If your goal is to change your body and your life Vishal is definitely your man. But remember the journey will not be easy. Vishal will work you hard and you will go through some pain. There is no comfortable way to change your body even though infomercials would like you to believe that there is. I am forever grateful to Vishal for helping me change my life for the better in more than one way.
Thank you my friend.

Prior to working out with Vishal, I started a diet that helped me lose about 40 lbs. I went from 208 to 170 in about 8 months. After I lost the weight, I wanted to change my body type, gain muscle and loose more body fat. Trying to go to the gym on my own, with no real direction, I was getting no real results. I met Vishal in a networking group and decided to give his a try as "I had nothing to lose" (unless you count the countless nights of being so SORE!).
I worked out with Vishal for about 2 years, and saw some major results in my body type.
Vishal is a total trainer. Not only does he cater your workout specifically to your body / goals, he also prepares a nutritional plan to follow to ensure the greatest success which he is very dedicated to. I can't recommend him enough.

This is THE group to work with! They work with you and any dietary restrictions to make a meal plan that is JUST FOR YOU. They create workouts JUST FOR YOU. They are always encouraging and pushing you to do better. They are there if you have questions or concerns, and are always looking for ways to show their clients they appreciate them. I love my trainer and I couldn’t ask for a better group to have as a gym family.

Working with Everlast Fitness is a great experience. Vishal takes time to answer any and all questions, and continues to taylor the nutritional plan as needs change. If you have the drive to make changes in your life and follow Vishal's guidelines, you will see results that will keep motivating you each week. I was disheartened as I had some knee problems during the training, but Vishal was quick to change the work out plan to give my knees a rest and I continued to improve on all muscle groups. He is a great trainer, and I would recommend his program to anybody that wants to get in the best shape of their life!

Where to begin…I’ll start by mentioning I’m no stranger to the gym or having a structured workout routine/diet. I’ve been lifting on my own for about 7 years --since junior year of high-school -- and have transformed myself from a little twig to actually having a solid build (especially being 6’4”). So needless to say I had never really thought to elicit the help of a coach – Why would I? I was already making solid progress on my own.
It wasn’t until I saw on Facebook that a former colleague of mine started training with Everlast Fitness. I reached out to congratulate her on the progress she had made, and ended up inquiring about ELF. She referred me to Vishal, and with the looming thought of competing in a show on my mind, I decided to reach out.
I scheduled a time to meet at his office and upon arrival was immediately impressed when I walked in the door. At first glance you can’t help but notice the walls of his office dotted with before & after photos of his previous clients, all of which were very impressive transformations. This was the kicker for me. Particularly because I saw a handful of guys that looked about my size/ body type at the start (all appeared to have previous experience in the gym)…then looking at the “after” photos and being amazed. Could Vishal do this for me?! We sat down and talked details and I signed up right then and there.
His training regime and diet were all tailored directly for me and my goals, taking into account my prior knowledge and experience in the gym. Our sessions were very advanced, and I loved it that way. What Vishal truly helped with was reminding me of all the little bits we come to forget after years of lifting: mind-muscle connection, proper breathing, not to mention a slew of new renditions for exercises I had never tried before. I was SORE for days after every session. I’ve always been a very clean eater, so the diet portion was easy for me. However, it does always help having a structured meal plan to follow day over day. He suggested a daily calorie number for me, which at first I thought might be too low, but I followed coaches orders and saw clean, dry gains over the course of our months training.
All in all, Vishal and the team over at ELF are fantastic trainers. Whether you’re new to the fitness world, or an experienced lifter like myself, they’ll be able to cater to your needs. Trust me, if you’re someone on the fence about getting a trainer, or doubting you’ll need any assistance, I suggest giving it a try. You will not be disappointed.

Training at Everlast has taught me that the key to success is not just about working out, but fueling your body with the proper diet and nutrients. I have struggled with eating properly and I love that Vishal continues to check on me and motivate me to keep going, even when I fall off. I recommend Everlast to anyone who wants a place to feel comfortable and not judged even when we fall. Thank you Vishal for your continuous support and motivation!

I was in the best shape I have ever been in with Everlast. I loved the accountability, the team workouts, and fitness/meal plans that were so specific for your body and needs. It was nice to workout as a team or all go to the same gym because odds were you'd be there with someone from the team and could workout together. Or if you were feeling unmotivated and didn't show up- Vishal would definitely notice and most likely so would another teammate. Getting in shape is hard word so it made ALL THE DIFFERECE to do it with a coach who would push you and a team that understood the pain :) It was incredible and not something you find with other gyms or trainers; it is unique to Everlast!

I've always been an active person, but haven't been able to reach the body I wanted. Since I've joined Everlast my body's been way more on point! They give you a meal plan based on your personal goals and body type. It's not just a personal trainer yelling at you to push harder, it's more of a crew and team that you join where you all motivate each other. I'm definitely stoked I've joined and it's been a lifestyle change that I'm going to stick to, plus it's got me lookin good and feelin fine! #swolesistas

Vishal is a real professional, yet keeps the training fun and interesting, allowing you to stick to the program without getting bored. Vishal has been my trainer for 5+ years. Once i turned 40 and realized my metabolism had slowed way down, Vishal made my transition into the gym surprisingly rewarding. I highly recommend his service.

After seeing the results that my was able to achieve during her time with Everlast Fitness. I decided to go through with the program as well. I have loved it very much, Vishal is very knowledgeable and I enjoy all the work outs. Each work out with Vishal is different and it keeps your body guessing. Not to mention all the progress I have achieved so far, weight loss as well as overall strength.

I've been training with Everlast Fitness for a year now. The entire Everlast team of trainers are nice and really know what they are doing. They will push you to train your hardest and hold you accountable. Vishal will work with you personally on your meal plan and will explain everything. They even hold events (once or twice a month) like showing you how easy it is to meal prep, yoga and hiking among many more activities.
Overall, I would recomend The Entire Everlast Fitness Team to help you reach your weight, fitness and health goals. You can't go wrong with whomever you get as a trainer, they will all equally help you meet your goals! They're not just your typical trainers they become your family.

Everlast Fitness has completely changed my life! I have worked out with Vishal Shah, the CEO, since day one and he has completely changed my way on how I look at working out. I went from a scrawny 115 pound kid to a muscular 160 in the four years I've worked out with him and Everlast Fitness. They are a company that treats you more than just another customer, they treat you as family and will push you until you meet your goals no matter what. Vishal and the Everlast trainers are high class and I would recommend this company to anybody who wants any sort of help when it comes to fitness, nutrition, and training!

Vishal Shah was my personal trainer for about 4 years. He is still one of my most cherished friends today. Embarking on the journey to lose weight, redefine your body and change your eating habits is not an easy one. It leaves you exhausted, too tired to have a social life. You get bored of eating. You start dreaming up ways to make egg whites easy to consume. Peanut butter becomes very important. Your results are relative to how hard you work, how much you put into it. This is sometimes not so easy for an individual alone to undertake. The goal at EverLast Fitness is to get to know you as an individual and help you design a lifestyle change that will work and stick. And Vishal is pretty damn good at it. If you have a goal and you want it, he will get you there; there is no doubt about it. The cost is very reasonable. Thumbs up!

My husband and i have been with Vishal and Everlast fitness since 2009. We have enjoyed a new healthier lifestyle through challenging exercise, proper nutrition and support from a trainer who really cares about his clients. He has challenged me to do things I never thought possible. We have lost weight, dropped body fat which resulted in smaller clothing sizes and feeling amazing! If you're looking to improve your health and well being, give Everlast Fitness a try!! You'll be glad you did.

This is my new family. My new way of living. Vishal caters to ever step of your nutritional plan and is available whenever you have questions or need a push. He keeps in touch weekly and the accountability is like no other I have experienced.
I train with Tiffany and she is hands down the best. She has changed my life. We discuss goals and hurdles and she is always there when I need advise or just an ear to bend. Best of all I consider her my friend, so when I see her for my sessions it is like a much needed girl time. As a busy mom and student that is just what I need. I have never been pushed to this level and I can't even picture my life before ELF.
My husband and I have tried several programs, but this is the first time we have made a lifestyle change rather than a "program" or "diet".
The results are amazing and I am beyond excited to see where they take me the rest of the year and beyond. I have lost weight and gained strength, but more importantly I have gained confidence and a new outlook on how to live.

Vishal is exceptionally nice, fun, an excellent personal trainer, is very knowledgeable about the human body, and really cares about about his clients.
I have issues with my lower back and also tendinitis in my left shoulder.
Vishal always takes into account my physical limitations and our workouts have been strengthening those areas.
I value my sessions with Vishal as they are all about me!
The gym itself is always clean and not overly crowded. Plenty of equipment and cardio choices.

I had worked out in the gym for years, but I never really took the time to seek out a trainer. My body made some progress, but it never really attained the results I wanted. I heard so many things about what works, what doesn't work, what I should do, what I shouldn't, etc. I started training with Vishal Shah at Everlast Fitness in the spring of 2014. Vishal gave me a very effective diet plan based on my goals and my body composition, and I immediately got started on a training program.
After training with Vishal, my fitness has reached a completely new level, and I've never looked back. I'm now a personal trainer for Everlast Fitness, and what I think makes that great for ELF is that I know Vishal's method. Each of the trainers has trained under him for an extended period of time, and we are hand selected by Vishal to become a part of the staff, as long as we take the necessary steps to learn and attain certifications pertinent to what we do.
At Everlast Fitness, we hold diet and menu classes monthly as well as have a group event that ALL of our clients are invited to. They're also invited to bring family along as well! We all care deeply about every member of ELF, and we pride ourselves in not only helping clients reach their goals but also in helping them achieve overall wellness. Some clients have even overcome many health issues and ailments due to a change in their lifestyle!
Don't just take my word for it. Head over to Everlast Fitness yourself, and see what it's all about. I bet you'll even get a free consultation AND training session out of it!

My experience with Vishal at Everlast fitness has been a great one. I contacted him over a year ago and I personally wasn't quite mentally and emotionally ready. I followed him on Facebook and once in awhile he would check in and see if I was ready and share new promotions with me. Finally, a year plus later, I was ready! My first visit was easy, and thorough. He assessed my goals, my "point A" and told me what was possible if I followed the plan and part of that was the FOOD PLAN. He assigned me to Tiffany, who is the right trainer for me. Its been about 3 weeks so far and I feel great. I feel stronger, I feel like my body is starting to change in the way I desire and for the first time in my life, I am totally ok with the scale reflecting weight gain, knowing my body is transforming the fat to muscle. My goal is to be fabulous at 45 (in December) with a beautifully sculpted body and I believe with this program and my commitment, I will definitely be there!
