Before joining Evolver, I really struggled to stay consistent with my workouts. I’d go for a few weeks, then fall off again. Nothing seemed to stick. That all changed once I started training virtually with the Evolver team from NYC.
They built a program that fits my life perfectly. Every session is customized to my goals, challenging in the right ways, and flexible enough to keep me consistent, even with a busy city schedule.
Since joining, I’ve lost 40 pounds and feel stronger and more confident than ever. If you’re thinking about joining, just do it. You’ll be glad you did.

After having a baby I was not able to get back into the routine of working out - I was struggling to prioritize myself and found time to be fleeting. My husband was going regularly to Evolver Fitness and pushed me to try it out. I’m so happy I did! The whole Evolver team is amazing. They truly care about you and take your fitness journey seriously. You’re not just another face in a sea of faces at a gym - they take the time to get to know you and make you feel like a part of the family.
I train with Miguel and would highly recommend working with him. He not only helps motivate me to get into the gym, but also pushes me to exceed my goals. He takes the time to understand what I need and will often correct my form or approach to an exercise to ensure I’m doing it properly.
Big shout out to the whole Evolver team for helping me get back into the gym and stay consistent in my routine.

The team at evolver customizes each plan for their clients. They continue to challenge me and improve my strength and mobility. They are extremely attentive to form and technique. They have positive, upbeat energy that you feel when you enter the gym and keeps me motivated!! If you are looking for skilled trainers who truly care about their clients inside and out, you need to come to evolver!!

Evolver is a different gym. It’s no nonsense and yet feels comfortable and welcoming. Something you need when you’ve just turned 61 and have let yourself go. I dreaded going back to the gym but Jake, Jenser and the team are always helpful and make me feel right at home.
I’ve worked with trainers before and thought I had nothing to learn but JP is different. His livable approach to fitness and nutrition has changed the way I work out and eat.
He’s shown me exercises that get better results. Let me know M&M’s in limited quantities are ok and that means I can stick with a better meal plan. His exercises have helped ease the pain in my knees, I feel stronger, have more energy and I enjoy working out again.
JP has set up an exercise and nutrition plan I know I can stick with. Just one of the differences I have found at Evolver.

We absolutely LOVE Evolver Fitness! Every trainer is fantastic, and what sets them apart is the way they take time to truly understand each client’s needs and lifestyle—making the results unbeatable.
Our go-to trainer, JP Lesko, has been nothing short of a game changer. His personal touch makes every workout feel customized, and his deep knowledge shows in everything he does. Whether he’s tailoring a program to meet specific goals, focusing on proper form and injury prevention, or pushing just enough to get results, JP consistently goes above and beyond.
What really makes JP stand out is his flexibility. He understands the demands of busy work and life schedules and always finds a way to make it work. It’s rare to find someone so professional, encouraging, and adaptable all at once.
If you want a trainer who genuinely cares about your progress and knows how to get you there, look no further—JP and Evolver are the absolute best. Highly recommend!

Evolver Fitness truly changed my game. Sticking to a calorie count used to be my biggest hurdle, but their approach helped me overcome it. The payoff? I proudly ran a sub 20 minute 5k!
What stands out is the coaches' deep experience in technique; you know you're in incredibly capable hands. This isn't just about workouts; it's a personalized program with the accountability you need to succeed. The trainers here are more than just coaches; they're friends you can genuinely connect with.
I enthusiastically recommend Evolver Fitness to anyone seeking an enjoyable workout that delivers real results and a personalized program with unwavering support. This is where fitness becomes fun and fulfilling.

A truly effective fitness program. Before Evolver Fitness, I struggled to stay consistent. I’d start strong but lose momentum without structure or accountability. Since joining, that’s completely changed. I’ve built a routine I enjoy, and I’m seeing real, steady progress in strength, energy, and mindset.
What sets Evolver apart is the personal approach. Jake listened, adapted the plan to my schedule, and kept me motivated without overwhelm. It’s not just a program, it’s a long-term lifestyle shift.
If you’re on the fence, just start. Evolver makes fitness approachable, sustainable, and truly effective. Highly recommend.

Thanks to a friend's recommendation, I joined Evolver last month and it's been a game-changer.
The staff, trainers, and equipment are all top-notch. What truly sets them apart is their incredibly thoughtful program – I'm already feeling younger, stronger, and more in tune with my body. It's even doubling as effective physical therapy for old injuries. Their holistic fitness and health evaluation is impressively comprehensive, far beyond just measurements; it's a deep lifestyle assessment that informs a truly personalized plan.
The atmosphere is fantastic – zero stress, just warmth, friendliness, and all the best equipment.
Highly recommend Evolver for a smarter, results-driven approach to fitness!

I’ve been a client at Evolver for 7 years now and working out with their trainers has been the best gift I could give myself. I’ve lost weight, gained muscle mass, and healed a hip injury that made it difficult for me to get in and out of the car. Now I move freely without any pain. The trainers are all so knowledgeable and very careful watching your moves and making sure you do the workout correctly so you don’t get injured. They keep the workouts interesting so you never get bored. And the gym is super clean. I turned 60 this year and I look and feel better than ever!

I started working out with a personal trainer at Evolver in 2020 after gaining some weight during the pandemic. My initial goal was to lose 10lbs. Almost 5 years later, I have transformed my body by losing fat and gaining muscle, I have strengthen my knee so I could go back to playing sports (after 2 ACL surgeries many years ago), and managed to stay healthy, active, and feeling great throughout 2 pregnancies. Trainers are knowledgeable and truly care, gym is clean, and the vibe is so chill. Highly recommend it to anyone looking to feel stronger and healthier.

I joined Evolver six months ago and that decision has been, without question, one of the best choices I can remember making for my health and wellbeing.
Working with Jake, Jenser, Sean (especially Sean) and the crew there has been a truly transformative experience. I am so much smarter about not just nutrition and strength training in general, but MY nutrition and strength training, because everything that they’ve recommended has been with me and my goals in mind. With their support, I’m stronger, have more stamina, better balance, and loads more energy.
There’s something really special about Evolver - they’ve created this amazing community where they take the work they do together super seriously, and balance that with a caring, encouraging and joyful vibe that makes working out so much more fun than I expected it to be.
I can’t speak highly enough about the Evolver team - if you are considering working with a personal trainer, schedule time to talk with them and let them tell you more about how they can meet you where you are and help you take the next steps in your own fitness journey.

I have always been a gym regular, but after becoming a father I found it hard to get to the gym. I needed to join a place where I would be held accountable. My trainer Rob did exactly that.
I’ve been an Evolver athlete for almost a year now, and a I truly get excited to go to the gym. I’ve been going 3x a week to workout with Rob. I’m not new to working a trainer, but Rob is always teaching me something. Workouts are exciting and progress is unreal.
This is a great environment to get in better shape whether you’re new to working out or an old dog looking to learn new tricks. The whole team is dedicated to your success.
Get off your *** and go meet Jake, Jenser and the team today. You won’t regret it.

Highly recommend Evolver Fitness. My experience was very positive. I learned a lot more about lifting weights & form. I gained more confidence in weight lifting. They were flexible with scheduling, since I can only do evenings after work. I am a very active person that loves fitness & Evolver Fitness helped me take it to the next level. I think anyone looking to incorporate positive healthy changes in their life will benefit with working with a trainer at Evolver Fitness.

I have never felt better! I am so thankful to Jake and Jenser and the entire Evolver team for setting me (and keeping me) on this journey. I had been speaking with friends about the need to weight train and I kept hearing the same thing - go to Evolver. I did, and I am so grateful. The staff is extremely knowledgable, receptive, supportive and insightful. From the first meeting, until now - almost one year later, I have learned so much - and for the first time, have been able to stick to a regular routine. I feel great and the results are noticeable! I can say that while I don't always love working out, Evolver has made me almost look forward to each session :). Seriously, these guys are great and meet you wherever you are on your fitness path. I highly recommend them!!

After a lot of searching and stopping and starting my fitness journey, I came upon Evolver from a friend's recommendation. This is not your typical gym! The owners and trainers are extremely knowledgable and work with each client to really understand their needs and goals. I am coming up on a year of consistent training and it is in large part due to the support and encouragement of the team. They are awesome!

Evolver Fitness is the gym I've been searching for for years. It's a private gym that focuses primarily on personal training, which has allowed me to achieve remarkable results in a surprisingly short amount of time. The dedication and expertise of the staff at Evolver Fitness is evident in the progress I've made. I want to give a special shoutout to Robert, my coach and personal trainer. From day one, I was seeking a partnership with someone who would push me beyond my limits, and Robert has exceeded my expectations. We have developed a strong relationship and have quickly accomplished the goals we set out to achieve. Evolver Fitness is not your average gym - it's a place where everyone is committed to reaching their goals.

Jake at evolved really knows his stuff. Together we came up with a plan that was not only workable, but also sustainable. He not only designed a workout regimen, but also a comprehensive nutritional plan. He was always available to answer questions and to help keep me accountable. He has been flexible with his availability, working around my crazy schedule. The facilities have always been well equipped and meticulously clean. The whole crew is welcoming, kind, and non judgmental. Would recommend for anyone that wants a full service approach to physical and lifestyle change.

Evolver is the warmest, friendliest place. I say this first because so many people are intimidated by the gym or personal training. You do not have to think about that at Evolver. The training team and the clients alike are welcoming and inspirational. It’s a place where everyone comes to be their best self.
I’ve had a lovely experience working with Quentin, who is helping me progress piece by piece. Right from the first few sessions, he understood my specific needs, and helped me create forward momentum. He is cognizant of how my body works, and tailors targeted warm-ups and exercises that help me push to the limit. From what I can see, every trainer there has a similar mindset and approach.
If you’re considering training, I hope you stop in and learn about Jenser & Jake and their wonderful team.

Evolver Fitness = Hidden Gem!!
First of all, I NEVER write reviews but Jake, Jenser, Rob and the entire Evolver team are simply great at what they do. Since starting with them only a short time ago, I've already lost 30lbs, have greatly reduced my BMI and have increased muscle mass and muscle tone. These guys are so supportive and their gym is like one big family, all working toward a common goal of better overall health and fitness. Their one-on-one training is second to none. Regardless of your current physical state, they'll customize a fitness and diet program that works for you and be there with you every step of the way. Again, I just can't say enough great things about Evolver. Get off your couch and get in contact with them. You'll be glad you did!!

I cannot say enough good things about Jake and Jenser, and their team. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by their knowledge, passion, and dedication to helping each member reach their fitness goals.
What sets this gym's trainers apart is their personalized approach. They take the time to understand each person's unique needs, limitations, and aspirations, and then tailor their guidance and support accordingly. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned athlete, the trainers make you feel valued and empowered every step of the way.
In short, the trainers at this gym are absolute game-changers. Their commitment to excellence, their ability to inspire, and their genuine care for their clients make every workout an enjoyable, rewarding experience. I can't imagine achieving my fitness goals without their guidance, and I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for top-notch trainers who will truly make a difference in their fitness journey.

I’ve been training with Jake for almost 9 months and wanted to share my experience.
We started by talking about my goals and what I was ultimately looking to achieve. Jake listened, and told me what was realistic and the work that would need to go into it to achieve my goals. In retrospect my goals may not have been achievable but Jake never told me otherwise, he just continued to encourage me and tell me what we needed to do to get there.
Jake put together an 8 week program based on an initial assessment. Along the way we made adjustments to the program and he always offered alternative options if I needed them. He also helped to put together a “diet” / meal plan to follow, this was and remains key to helping me achieve my goals. We spent sessions talking about diet / healthy and not so healthy eating habits as must as we did about lifting and proper form. In short the tools I needed to achieve my goals.
The 3 most important aspects that I look for in a trainer are knowledge, which Jake has and if he does not have the answer he’ll get it and share what he’s learned. The second, does the trainer practice what they preach, and yes Jake does! Lastly is encouragement, and support which Jake shares during each of our sessions, without that I’d not be in the place I’m at today and would not have continued at Evolver.
In short training at Evolver and with Jake has been a positive experience in my life and I wouldn’t change a thing about. They give me all the tools and support for me to achieve my goals! My only advice, take photos before to see your progress!

I have been training with Jenser since February of 2016 and have lost 32 lbs and kept it off. Jenser provides a great compliment of stretching, strength training and eating tips. He is always positive. My goal when I started was to be able to surf after meniscus surgery, within 5 months I went surfing for the first time at age 51. Now I surf as much as I can, thanks to Jenser's training.

I started working with Jenser about four plus years ago. We live in North Carolina and he was training our son in Greenwich. About every two months we would head north and while visiting train with Jenser for a couple days. Back in NC we had a very good trainer that we worked with a couple days a week. I always teased our NC trainer that I was looking forward to going back to Ct to work with our "good trainer".
Well covid hit, we passed on the gym, dusted off and then improved our home gym, and started training regularly with Jenser three days a week. The "we" now includes my wife, brother in law, sister in law, son and nephew. All of us have had personal trainers before Jenser but none of us are planning on working with anyone else in the future.
It's crazy when you can get a better workout with Jenser training virtually than working with someone else in person. That speaks volumes on his knowledge, abilities, communication and listening skills. He is never satisfied with what is ... always trying to make it that much better. Small adjustments have big results. And he also doubles as the best physical therapist we know.
We are very fortunate that he is part of our life.
Thanks CB!!!

Evolver Fitness is truly a hidden gym gem located right in Norwalk. The owners, Jake and Jenser take time with each client coming up with a plan that not only will fit their lifestyle, but will also encourage them to be successful and stay on an exercise track. I have never been an athlete, or someone who exercises, but on a whim, decided .. why not. 2 years later, Jake has not only created a plan that I can stick to, but I actually look forward to going to the gym now. And I'm 50! So if you are looking for a great gym with owners who truly care and go the extra mile, go to Evolver!

I’ve worked with personal trainers for over 20 years. Jenser is as good as it gets. His concern for the overall well-being of his clients is paramount. While strength, tone, and flexibility are an obvious priority, Jenser also considers and advises on nutrition and emotional health. As an aging boomer, I have my share of aches and pains. I’ve been impressed since day one by Jenser’s ability to adjust workout techniques so that I can meet my goals without pain. When covid forced us into our homes, Jenser created effective, varied workouts for me with the very limited equipment I had. I was amazed at how resourceful he was, finding ways to keep it fresh and dynamic for over a year.
Jenser is a genuinely nice guy. It’s been a pleasure working with him.

I have been working out with Jenser (left) for years. The benefits of my experience at the gym go far beyond physical strength; the support of this crew (Jake, Matt, and Jenser) has sparked confidence and drive within all areas of my life. The men are charmingly hilarious, professional, and motivational. They help each of their clients identify a meaningful goal, and they develop purposeful programs alongside these goals. They are informative & knowledgeable regarding proper fueling (dieting, meal plans, etc.), and they are passionate about what they do. The name says it all — the goal of Evolver is not only to help their clients evolve physically, but to evolve as people. Thanks for all the love, I’ll miss you all very much when I’m at college!!
