IntroductionWelcome! No Limits Personal Fitness is operated by Gabe Reyes, a nationally certified personal trainer and certified Performance Enhancement Specialist. Personally, I have serviced 3,000+ sessions and have clients from all walks of life. I am far from limited in whom I am able to train. I specialize in clients with "special conditions", this ranges from diabetes to cancer, arthritis to high blood pressure. Also, I hold a PES (Performance Enhancement Specialist) credential through the National Academy of Sports Medicine. This credential is what approximately 93 percent of athletic trainers in the NBA hold--this enables me to greatly assist athletes and aspiring ones, as well. The majority of my training takes place right in your own home. No wasting gas driving to the gym, no spending money on a pricey gym membership, and no spending money on fitness equipment. All necessary equipment is brought to your house each session, so there will be no fitness clutter taking up room in your house. I love what I do and take great pride in my profession. I am currently accepting in-home training clients only.
My Philosophy I take a science-based approach to fitness. There are so many trainers out there that train their clients how they train themselves, or they base their workouts off of what the latest fitness magazine says. Do you really want to pay for that? Most trainers take the "personal" out of "personal training" and that's a shame. I design your program based on a myriad of your personal characteristics. I take into account everything from your age to your fitness level, your level of enthusiasm to your past experiences, when developing your program. When you train with me you don't get randomized workouts, you get a personalized program. I make sure my clients are doing the correct exercises at the the correct time and that they reach their goals both safely and punctually. No fad workouts, no drill sergeant mentality, just the right program JUST for you.
People and areas I serve No Limits is transforming lives in Concord, Antioch, Pittsburg, Brentwood, Oakley, Walnut Creek, Rio Vista, Benicia, Fremont and growing. Even if your city or location is not listed I will gladly accommodate you and work alongside you. There is no single, particular client-type that I train, since my certifications allow me to confidently and effectively serve clients from all ages and fitness levels. I work with track and field athletes on a regular basis and assist many aspiring athletes from high school to the collegiate level. In the past I have trained professional formula one race car drivers from the Mazda Racing Group and have teamed up with numerous former type 2 diabetics and allowed them to free themselves of the condition--this shows the versatility and effectiveness of a science-based approach to fitness. Also, on a daily basis I work with weight-loss and injury rehab programs. On average, I perform 4 weight-loss sessions each day and 2 injury rehab sessions, as well.
CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
"When I first contacted Gabe, I was skeptical at best. I'd seen doctor after doctor to try and deal with my extensive injuries with almost no results. But, I figured I didn't have much to lose and the consultation was free. As far as my physical health and fitness, training with No Limits may be the best decision I have ever made. Within weeks I was seeing results and meeting my goals.. After two months, much of my chronic pain is gone and I have recovered more mobility and strength than I thought possible. I received better, more personal, and more comfortable care from Gabe than from the many doctors, specialists, physical therapists, and surgeons that I have seen over the past three years. My experience with No Limits Personal Fitness has been nothing short of fantastic. I would highly recommend Gabe to anyone."

"Gabe Reyes is a great trainer, not only is he good at teaching great workouts , but he is also willing to listen to what I want out of the workout. My goal was not just to lower my weight, but I wanted to lower my blood sugar, since I am diabetic. I have gone from 150 to between 80-110 [in blood sugar]. I am usually under 100 in my blood sugar. Gabe gave me the hope and motivated me to keep trying. He is kind and good and a great listener. He makes you feel that everything is possible. I am disabled and he gives me workouts that work around my disability. My personal goal was to eliminate my diabetes pills and with Gabe's supervision, it has now happened. He pushes me just enough to reach my goal-but does not overwork me. I have NEVER been sore from my workouts. Instead, I feel good afterwards; not exhausted. He makes me want to keep working out. I went from hating exercise to liking exercise. I feel that without Gabe's understanding and great supervision, this would not have been possible. In short, Gabe works with me, not against me."

"Thanks for all of your hard work with Allie! We really appreciate your time, patience and effort. We've really noticed an improvement with her confidence and her injury, as well. We look forward to seeing all of her hard work with you pay off this upcoming season!"

"I just wanted to say thank you for training me and showing me new things. You have been very helpful and encouraging in helping me to never give up. You have helped me prove to myself that I can reach my goals and that has changed my life. I care more for my body now; now I have discipline. Day by day I look forward to working out and before, well, I would skip workouts on my own."

"Training with Gabe has to be the best investment I have made. His experience and passion has given me the motivation to keep working harder and realizing there are "no limits" to what I can achieve. In the past I looked for quick results no matter what it takes "crash diets", "weight loss supplements" etc., but Gabe made me realize patience and hard work will help me achieve long term results. Words cannot describe the feeling of fitting into clothes that at one point were too tight to wear. Thanks Gabe!"

"In March of 2008 I joined a gym and, as part of the package, I was given sessions with a personal trainer. I was lucky enough to have Gabe be that trainer. I used the free sessions, purchased more and continued training with him when he made the move to start his own business. My main goal with the workouts was to firm and tone the usual trouble spots. Not only have I seen a difference in the appearance of those areas, I also have increased strength and energy. My membership with the gym has since expired but I continue to work with Gabe because with him I enjoy my workouts. No matter how you say it Gabe is knowledgeable, dedicated, fun to work with, and truly cares for his clients."

"I've been training with Gabe since Oct. 7th, 2007. He has been great in helping me achieve my goals. I have arthritis, so we have to be careful not to overdo things. Gabe is a good encourager, making sure that I'm doing things in right form so I don't get hurt. He's very good at knowing my limits and making sure I meet them. With my previous trainer, I lost body fat and that was where it ended. Since training with Gabe, I've gained back every pound I lost in fat, but replaced it with muscle. I have gotten so much stronger than I ever thought possible. We make goals and meet each one. Today I met a goal that I had set for myself: to bench 50lb dumbbells. When Gabe said, 'Okay, get the 50's', it scared me but I knew he knew I was ready, even if I didn't. Not too bad for a 53 year old woman! All in all, Gabe is a joy to work with and it's very clear that he really knows his stuff and cares about his clients. We have accomplished so much. He makes me feel like I can do anything. I look forward to training with him for a long time"

"Thank you for all you have done for me and for being such a great person, and someone I look up to. You might be thinking, 'I was just doing my job and doing what I love to do', but I still say thank you and your help means the world to me."
"Gabe Reyes has reinvented the way I view fitness. His passion for his career keeps me motivated to work hard in all my workouts. He keeps me on task and focused, but not in a way that takes the fun out of the workout. I am a track runner and all the workouts he writes up for me are tailored to apply to not only me and the sport I compete in, but the specific event I run and how my body is feeling from my previous workout. He pushes me past where I thought I could be and helps me realize the potential I hold inside myself. Since I have started training with Gabe, I have gotten faster, stronger, and more confident--and for me, confidence, mentally and physically, is a big part of who I am and the sport I compete in. As an athlete, it's important to have an understanding of the task before me so I can work my hardest at overcoming it; Gabe helps me do just that. With every exercise he gives me to do, he gives me an explanation as to why I am doing it and how it will benefit me; he is also willing to answer any question I have to ask. In turn, that deeper understanding he gives me about my training pushes me to work harder towards my goals with the same passion he has for his career. He cares about me as a person, not just as one of the athletes he is training; he treats me with respect. I love working with Gabe and enjoy his company as well as his training service. Training with him was the best investment I have made for my athletic career and I look forward to continuing my training."
