“I am pleased to provide my testimonial in support of your skills as a trainer and talent as a coach. My whole outlook on fitness training has been changed by you; your technique of emotional support in combination with the physical/cardio workout allows my whole body and mind to be involved in attaining my fitness goal. Your steadfast support has enabled me to reach previously unattainable levels of overall physical and mental health; including reaching my third weight loss goal since I started my training sessions with you, receiving sound nutritional advice, and learning new stress reduction techniques. Patience, flexibility, and stern commitment to the purpose of the workout session are great qualities you have as a fitness trainer and coach. To have these qualities AND the ability to make your clients believe there is no limit to their goals, is a gift. Even though I am still a work in progress, let me take this opportunity to say Thanks" for helping me to believe I could look and feel fabulous (at my age)!!”

“Having been a client of Fred Fornicola's for almost six years now speaks volumes about the kind of teacher that Fred is to his clients. His approach is grounded in a very comprehensive approach to good health, fitness, and mental well-being. I appreciate and respect the dedication, discipline, and life lessons which he has shared with me over the years. He has helped me incorporate an ongoing fitness philosophy into my life. While I may not be his best client in terms of adhering to the discipline, I know that, without Fred's support, guidance, and commitment, the goal of attaining true fitness both in mind and body would be much farther out of my grasp.”

"Fred Fornicola is a training innovator and writer in an industry full of restricted thinking. He has listened, viewed, tried, and assimilated just about everything the world of exercise has put forth over the decades. His voice is one of the few that keeps people’s attention."
- Randy Roach, Author of Muscle, Smoke and Mirrors
“I can, without reservation recommend Fred's personal training services to assist you in realizing your physical potential.”
- Matt Brzycki, Assistant Director of Campus Recreation, Fitness, Princeton University
"I have been working with Fred since March of ‘06, and my association with him has been extremely beneficial for me. His approach has not only transformed my body's outward appearance, but my overall quality of life along with it. His techniques have allowed me to build lean muscle mass, trim fat, and possess more endurance for the things I need to tackle in my everyday life. He has done this by applying a mix of interesting and innovative techniques, combined with an infectious enthusiasm that inspires me to work hard, even on those days when I think I can't. I strongly recommend working with Fred to help achieve your fitness goals along with the life goals that will become more attainable as a result of your improved health."

“All my life I weight-trained using the typical “bodybuilding workout” you’d find in any muscle magazine and I felt pretty good with my results. Then at 30 years old I started recreational training in mixed martial arts. I was pretty strong and well conditioned . . . for about 45 seconds into a match. A lifetime of weight training, cardio and diet and I couldn’t last more than a minute without becoming completely exhausted. I was very hesitant to change my training routine to the one that Fred proposed, but I did. I now train for 20 minutes (or less) 3 days a week and perform short aerobic interval exercises on my off days and I am stronger and more conditioned than I ever have been at any age. If muscular endurance and not “gassing out” during your activities is your goal . . . there is no better training method than what you will do with Fred.”
