About Robert
Fitness has been part of my life since childhood — my father was a martial arts instructor, and I grew up training alongside him. I carried martial arts all the way through adulthood, right up to the "Stage" as a touring musician and music producer. Performing at a high level demands your body be at a high level. That truth drove everything.
When the pandemic took the stage away, I didn't stop — I pivoted. I attended Focus University Personal Training Institute, earned my certification, and continued my education in pre & post-natal training, pain-free performance, kettlebell training, group fitness, precision nutrition, kickboxing, and female self-defense. Say'les Fitness was born from that moment.
My style is spiritual. I have a relationship with God that spills into everything I do. In a session with me you'll find peace, a calm center, and the confidence to face what's in front of you — in the gym and in life. My job isn't just to train your body. It's to train your thoughts until positive becomes the dominant frequency — and your body becomes the byproduct.
Say'Les. Do More.

What Clients Say
Every client that walks through the door becomes part of the Say'les Fitness community. Here's what they have to say.
Joining SAY'LES Fitness was one of the Best decisions I've made. Even though I've only been training with Rob for a short time, the progress has been incredible. Rob has been an amazing trainer — he took the time to understand my goals, and pushed me through every session to make sure I stayed consistent. In this short period I can already see and feel a real difference in my physical progress, muscle, and overall confidence 💪🏾. The momentum I've built at SAY'LES Fitness with Rob's guidance has been huge, and I'm extremely excited to keep pushing forward and unlocking new potential.
I have been working with Robert for nearly 3 years. I came to him initially with the very dreary goal of losing some menopausal weight. We met that original goal, yes. But what I've got from working with Robert is so much greater than that! With his help I rediscovered my passion for fitness! I learned to love the work and trust the process. Along the way I developed new and developing goals. We are working together to build a stronger, more capable and resilient Jennifer. Fitness is a life time pursuit for me now and I credit Rob with helping me develop this mindset. If you are looking for a trainer who will meet you where you are and will help you truly grow, Rob is your Coach!
We have been with Say'Les fitness for nearly two years and the workouts keep getting better. We get consistency, creativity, and focus working with Rob. He pays attention to our goals and not only helps us achieve them, but pushes us to go further.
I've been a Type 1 diabetic since 1997, so staying healthy and taking care of myself has always been important to me. But after my daughter was born last year and I stepped into a more demanding role as CEO, exercise gradually took a backseat. I could see it in how I felt, looked, and, more importantly, in my numbers. I knew I needed more than just a gym membership. I needed someone who would challenge me, hold me accountable, and make sure I consistently made my health and fitness a priority. Rob has been exactly that. He pushes me every week, pays attention to my goals, and knows how to get more out of me than I would ever get on my own. The results have been significant. I'm stronger, feel like I'm truly back in shape, and my numbers are better than they've ever been. What I appreciate most about Rob is the accountability. When work and family get busy, it's easy to put yourself at the bottom of the list. Having someone who makes sure that doesn't happen has been incredibly valuable to me.
