About this pro

By getting to know all sides of my clients not just physcially but emotionally and mentally, I'm able to help them achieve the best version of themselves. Fitness is not just about how much weight you lift or how much weight you lose, it is about how much it allows you to break new barriers in other parts of your life as well!

I have over 4 years or experience training various individuals who were looking to lose weight, gain strength and confidence in themselves.

I am a Certified Personal Training, Group Exercise Instructor, Weight Management Specialist. I also teach people about Group Fitness instruction as a Shape Up Manager. I also have had the pleasure of training the Army reserve and co-hosted fitness parties.

I had an awesome experience with Rodney. He made fitness FUN! He motivated me to get back into shape, ,make my health and wellness a priority, get back into working out so that I could get back to doing many of the things that I enjoy; and also sharing that love and passion with others! He is funny, fun, knowledgeable in nutrition and fitness and keeps it 100% real. He's always checking in on you to make sure you're ok and back on your game. He loves his work but more than anything, he loves to motivate others and share that passion with the people.

There are no words, other than "FRIGGIN' AMAZING", that are better suited to describe Rodney! He has a wealth of knowledge, is extremely personable, accommodating and worth every penny. A trainer with his skill level, passion for his craft, and desire to genuinely improve each of the lives of his clients is a rare find! King Rod I wish you blessings upon blessings on your journey to share your gift with the world...

You can tell he was enthusiastic about working out. Nothing felt forced. The experience was very client centered and he met you at the point you were at in your working out/being fit and healthy journey.

I trained with Rod for months through the NYC ShapeUp NYC program. He was always enthusiastic and got us motivated. He gave a lot of his extra time making sure we were trained well, sharing from his own personal experiece. He went above and beyond the things he had to do for us. I am still able to contact Rod when I have questions and/or need to bounce something off someone with more experience. Now that I’m working at a fitnesss instructor I try to bring Rod’s energy and dedication to everything I do.

Rodney was my instructor to become a Shape-Up Fitness Trainer. He is very passionate about what he does. He uses the right balance of tough love, encouragement, and guidance. He adjusts that equation for each individual person tailored to your specific need. He conducts himself and his brand with pride, professionalism, and integrity. He will motivate you to be your best and look your best.
