Aesthetic Bodies OC

Adam is AWESOME. And what’s more awesome is how I feel about myself after training with Adam for close to 5 months now. I’ve lost 7% body fat, dropped 14 lb in body weight and reduced my waist line by 4 inches!!! I was very hesitant about getting a trainer at first and I’m so happy with my decision and so happy with my results. I actually like working out now!
Adam has been great throughout my entire journey starting with the consultation (which is complimentary btw). We went through baseline measurements, photos and he answered all my questions and talked through my concerns. He’s very thorough and in depth with his coaching and instructions and I love that he’s so detail oriented and very passionate about what he does. I also love that the gym is easy to get to — it’s nearby the major freeways and parking is never a problem. It’s also been so great that he coaches on nutrition and does measurement assessments once a month to keep me accountable.
I’d highly recommend Adam to anyone!

I was seeking a personal trainer to get back in shape after my pregnancy. I’m the type of person that rarely goes to the gym because I find it intimidating and I don’t like working out in front of other people. When I do go to the gym, I always need a buddy so I thought why not get a personal trainer as a buddy? I also needed someone there to push me past my limits, plus I have absolutely no knowledge regarding fitness and nutrition.
I found Adam by surfing through Unilocal and he was listed as one of the top trainers in the Irvine area. I was also very impressed with the results of his other clients, so I decided to contact him. We had an initial consultation where we discussed my goals and he answered any questions/​concerns I had. After the consultation, I was sold. Adam was intimidating at first, but his knowledge and professionalism led me to quickly sign on as his client, knowing I had found the right trainer.
Adam really looks out for his clients’ best interest. He is so invested in each client that YOUR SUCCESS=HIS SUCCESS. He is very meticulous when he trains you and he’ll correct you on your form right then and there if he sees something wrong. Not only does he know exactly how to target each muscle group, but he is also very knowledgeable about nutrition. He uses a science-​based approach that does not limit the types of food you can eat. If you’re really committed to achieving the results you want, Adam will be flexible with you and I value that, especially because I already have such a hectic schedule. He has helped me obtain an overall healthier lifestyle and a more positive outlook on working out and I can’t thank him enough for that.
There are so many reasons why Adam is such an amazing trainer. He is extremely dedicated to his work and clients. His passion and drive is contagious and it motivates you to achieve the results you strive for. He is highly educated on his craft and he provides his knowledge for you to achieve maximum results. What I like most about Adam’s methods is that you are not restricted to a certain diet and you get a variety of workouts during each session. I now thoroughly enjoy working out and can confidently step into a gym and feel like I’m doing something right.
I highly recommend Adam to anyone who is looking for a top notch trainer that will give you his all, takes no excuses, and pushes your buttons in a good way.

I rarely write reviews but Adam really deserves it. Throughout my years in college I would train but wouldn’t see much progress. Things got boring and I became unmotivated. That’s when I decided to go with a trainer and through my friends I found Adam. What I like about Adam is his personalized approach to training. Over the 6 months that I have been training with I have learned a lot. I never knew that it would be possible to increase my strength while losing weight at the same time. If you’re someone new to the fitness world or you’ve hit a plateau I suggest you come to Adam.
P. s. thanks Adam for helping me bench 225 for reps it was my goal for the longest time.

Personal trainers are a dime a dozen, but the type of results and experience you get with Adam will blow your mind! He takes the time in getting to know your body composition to best meet your goals. As a veteran I have several injuries from being in the service over the years. If I am not able to do an exercise due to one of those injuries, he is knowledgeable on what else I can do to achieve the same effect. Keeps the training sessions fun and new, so I don’t get bored and burned out.
Plus, he tries to have a real personal connection with those he trains. In a way when we win he truly wins, he feels our success as if they are his own.

Honestly, hands down the best trainer I’ve ever had. I’ve had a trainer in the past that was very blasé about my fitness and overall health. We didn’t have a very good dynamic, however, that is definitely not the case with Adam. He genuinely cares about me and my overall health and fitness
I approached him earlier this year about getting myself back into shape. He gave me a complimentary consultation (which was extremely insightful) followed by a tour of the gym. After that day I knew I had found THE ONE trainer that I could rely on. Everything from the apps that he suggested (MyFitnessPal), to proper workout shoes, to proper nutrition have been spot on. He’s always available (I’ve texted him at like 2am because I felt bad about eating carne asada fries the night before our session and he actually responded). Oh, not to mention he’s completely professional and hilarious.
Adam is pretty stern when it comes to his workouts but it’s only because he’s so passionate. His methods are efficient, which is just what I need when it comes to working out (everything was hurting after our first initial session). I love that he takes the time to explain each move and is very patient with me when I do fall off a little bit (Vegas, why you gotta do me so dirty?). Additionally, he’s so encouraging and supportive. It’s like with every squat, push, or movement that I make, I have a cheerleader in my corner cheering me on.
My health has forever changed since meeting Adam and I’m so thankful to have such an awesome coach like him!
Highly recommend.
You won’t be disappointed.

You know the feeling you get when you walk into a fitness center and personal trainers to you, feel like used car salesman trying to earn a buck?
Adam, one of the best trainers I’ve ever worked with, (5 total I’ve worked with) IS DEFINITELY NOT THAT.
He gives grade A consultation with absolutely no pressure at all. Gives baseline measurements, photos and answers any questions or concerns you may have. This process (the consultation) by the way is TOTALLY FREE.
This guy is absolutely passionate about his profession and I can see it in the way he acts both during and not during our training sessions.
He’s extremely thorough in coaching and very detail oriented, (Almost OCD it seems in a good way) Before coming on board with ABOC I recently went through a patch in life where I was noticing an asymmetrical development occurring in multiple parts in my body and this is why I decided to seek out for strength conditioning coaching with a bodybuilding background. (Pretty rare nowadays) When we started doing compound movements he let me know of the exact cognitive muscular imbalances I was experiencing all from the exterior with his eye. (I was sold at this point)
I signed on as his client in mid January under a very professionally done contract btw (I’ve been in contact with coaches who literally have contracts that have like four lines, just seems unprofessional) We’ve done body testings every week and progress wasn’t always linear because of the lifestyle I live but when I was on the same page as Adam had desired for me I made SO MUCH Progress. In the span of about 5 months I’ve dropped almost 7% bodyfat, (23 to 16.7) 17lbs in bodyweight, and I’ve never really cared about waist sizing but I actually lost 4 inches, and yes all while doing powerlifting based movements. (that’s for the ladies if you’re reading this)
Adam is on point with tracking my calories and macronutrients. I needed a coach who understood the science of nutrition and not just some cookie cutter coach who dishes out meal plans. (big no no in my book) He’s made some awesome adjustments during my program, and to keep me accountable he makes me do a measurement assessment on a regular basis
I’m currently still working on dropping some bodyfat under his coaching and plan to pursue bodybuilding someday in the future, but for now I just really have fallen in love with lifting at ABOC and Adam truly is a wonderful coach, person, and mentor.
He’s got a MUCH different outlook on everything than the standard personal trainer and I can say whole-​heartedly he cares about my success more than anything and there’s no better driving force than that in a coach. That’s for damn sure. Thanks again Adam, and I’ll be on that stage soon because of you coach!

I’ve only been training with Adam for about 3 months and I can confidently say that I plan to be here for the long run. Before training, I never… NEVVVERRRR set foot in a gym, nor felt the want/​need to workout. I had a 24 hour gym pass for 3 years and used it twice. That’s not even once a year. All the machinery intimidated me, and I didn’t know which workouts to implement to target the areas I felt needed work.
I found out about Adam through my sister. Seeing her results in just 4 months of training with him and hearing how passionate she was about living a healthy lifestyle really motivated me to change up my ways.
Adam makes everything about working out enjoyable. The most valuable quality about him is the fact that he’s constantly educating his clients. As you workout, he explains exactly what you’re working on, what’s going on in your body, what kind of results it will get you, and he’ll even show you other workouts that will give you the same result! In addition, he gives great advice on how to enjoy dieting.
I never thought I’d say this, but I actually LOVE working out now all thanks to Adam!

I actually don’t Train with Adam because I don’t think I could hang. But my wife (Erika) has been training with Adam for a while now and I have to say her results are really incredible. Besides loving her workouts, my wife has really progressed in the strength and endurance department. She’s is in the best shape of her life and her body looks really incredible. She’s got a pretty great butt now. Thanks, Adam.

Almost nothing great in the world cannot be achieved without passion. And Adam has that burning passion for his work and business.
I’ve known Adam before he started his business at ABOC. He always have had this unique passion for fitness, health and nutrition.
It wasn’t till a year or so ago when I reached out to him for help with my goal of losing weight & reducing body fat. He provided a very thorough complimentary consultation at the facility he is currently working at called Next Level Fitness. We did a tour of the place, goal setting, background assessments, before photos and baseline measurements al within one consultation. Unlike my past inquiries with previous trainers, I could tell during the assessment that Adam truly care and interested in my well being as a person. Adam provided me with his honest opinions and answers to my questions without coming off as a hard-​seller or pretending like he knew it all; he was very easy to talk to which is what I liked. During the assessment, Adam also taught me the importance of tracking my calories & macronutrients on an app like Myfitnesspal for my goals.
Training during the first few months wasn’t easy but it was definitely challenging vs going by myself. Adam is a walking encyclopedia of informations. He walked me through almost every exercises with thorough instructions and key points. Adam isn’t the type to scream or yell in your face like a drill sergeant but instead, he provide great encouragements and compliments. He also checked in on me during my days off to see how I am doing with tracking my foods and how I am feeling after each workouts.
After a few months of training, progress started to come and show. He had helped me dropped 22 pounds in bodyweight, reduced my body-​fat by 9% and lowered my waist belt by 5 inches. I was very pleased with our work.
The facility is very roomy and had a lot of strength and conditioning equipments that you wouldn’t be able to find at normal commercial gyms like: difference level tires, battle ropes, sleds, trap bar for deadlifts, deadlift platform and more. The gym is also conveniently located by John Wayne airport and is nearby 5 major freeways: 55, 73, 405, 55 & the 5. Parking is private and is first come first serve basis. The front end of the gym also has a well center that provides other services like Chiropractic, Massage Therapy & acupuncture.
Overall, I am very very pleased with the time I had spent with Adam and his training knowledge. I now know how to take care of my well being and nutrition without cutting out my social life and can take on the gym with much more confidence than before. I highly recommend Adam, and his team for anyone’s success.

I am a mother of two and have been struggling with getting my body back to how it was before pregnancy for YEARS, and let me tell you, it’s NOT an easy goal for someone who loves to eat, eat, and eat! Before meeting Adam and Richard, I would only walk on the treadmill for a good 30 mins and dreaded EVERY second of it.
One day, my friend asked if I’d like to tag along to her consultation with Adam. That day changed my life. We both ended up hiring Adam and Richard to help guide us on the right direction to weight loss.
Training was NOT easy, BUT I felt so good after every session. After each training I felt more energized and confident about my body. Adam and Richard was not only my trainers but are two professional individuals who cared about my well being.
I absolutely love weight lifting now!!! I seriously didn’t know working out can be this fun. I lost a total of 12 lbs and 8 inches off my waist in 5 months. I am so happy with the results, and most importantly, I now understand it’s not about dieting for a few weeks to try to get skinny, but it’s about eating healthy and being committed to yourself! Thank you, Adam and Richard for giving me the tools, knowledge, and drive to achieve this goal.

I knew Adam before he started Aesthetic Bodies of Orange County. When I first met him, it was abundantly clear how passionate he was about fitness, and that stayed with me because nothing great in the world has been accomplished without burning passion.
After working at a job where my lifestyle level was sedentary, I decided to contact Adam to help me lose weight and get stronger because I knew he could give me results.
Adam introduced me to an app called MyFitnessPal and FindMyMacros to help me track my protein, carbohydrate and fat intake. Keep in mind, I love food more than I like people, so «dieting» usually does not cross my conscious thoughts. My eating habits are dependent on my stress levels at work; it can range from eating very healthy, to gorging myself with obscene amounts of food, to eating nothing at all. Lucky for me, Adam gave me the tools for a non-​restricted way to diet, while enjoying my favorite foods, and achieving my fitness goals.

When I first started weight lifting with Adam, and his assistant Richard, I was very intimidated, skeptical reluctant, and feared being a complete novice. But eventually that all changed. Adam and Richard have completely built my confidence, my strength, and continue to challenge me on a daily basis. My posture has improved, my energy levels have increased, and now I can twerk like Beyoncé.
Adam displays a tremendous amount of knowledge in the methods that he uses to bring my goals into a reality. He focuses on the individual needs of his clients, but most importantly, he genuinely cares about their well-​being.
If you are looking for a personal trainer, Adam is your guy.
I promise you will not be disappointed.

If you’re looking for a trainer, look no further! I started training three months ago and I feel stronger and healthier than I have ever felt! It’s really motivating when you feel and see the results! I initially came to Adam with one goal in mind… Get fit for the wedding! After I was engaged, I wanted to look and feel my best on the big day. Adam has helped me focus on my training and has taught me how to make training and nutrition a lifestyle change. He has helped me understand Marco nutrients and how I can make better and healthier choices. Adam is unlike other trainers out there who recommend a «cookie cutter» diet plan and send you off. He truly customizes your plan to meet your individual needs and offers so many tips to help along the way. Another reason I value Adam as a trainer is that his recommendations are evidenced based. As a person in the medical field, I’m interested in the research that supports any practice. Luckily, Adam values this as well.
Adam has helped me enjoy weight lifting again. I used to have a gym membership and I would absolutely dread picking up the weights. Now, I look forward to weight training and I’m motivated by my continued progress. Adam really focuses on form and movement. As a previous dancer, I value how he includes a variety of movement to our sessions. My strength and range of motion continues to improve, which is awesome!
In addition, Adam hired Richard who has been a strong asset to my training. Richard is very knowledgeable and is very attentive to form. He kicks my butt and knows how to maximize my strengths and target my weaknesses. Adam and Richard are professional, organized, flexible, and motivating!!! It’s apparent they genuinely care about their clients. :)
Furthermore, the gym is full of very friendly people. I’ve been lucky to meet some awesome people at the gym. The gym includes people of all ages and fitness levels, which I find comforting. There’s plenty of parking and the location is close to the freeway which is convenient.
Adam and Richard are absolutely amazing. Their passion for training and knowledge has not only helped me reach my personal goal but has motivated me to keep going! I am so fortunate I found Adam and Richard. Thank you!!!

Last year, I moved to OC from the Monterey Bay area and I was looking for a trainer that would fit my expectations. It took me a few months to find the right trainer for me. In those few months that I didn’t have a trainer, all I did was run… A LOT & ate unhealthy because I put my work schedule as an excuse to do so. I wasn’t getting the results I wanted and I got tired of that. Plus, I wanted to learn more about weight training.
I found Adam on Unilocal.Unilocal was the app I utilized in order to do my research on trainers around the area. I decided to make an appointment with Adam because of all the reviews and the amazing before and after pictures of his clients. I was very impressed.
Why I chose Adam? His passion for what he does STANDS OUT. He is straight forward and he is very specific with every workout that he teaches, which assured me that he knew what he was talking about. 3 months of training with Adam, I started seeing results. Results that I always wanted. I noticed that I was getting stronger, my endurance increased, my hand grip was stronger than ever, my waist was getting smaller, while my thighs and glutes were becoming more toned and increased in size.
The gym is great as well. It’s spacious and they have many variety of equipments that will definitely help with any fitness goals that you have. I honestly love it. It is also very convenient to the 4 main freeways 55÷73÷405÷5. You will never have trouble with parking, which is also a huge plus!
Adam listens to your goals you guys. Not only does he know what he is doing, he also encourages you, he helps you conquer your fears, and he gives you great nutrition tips as well. Training with Adam taught me that there are no excuses. If you really want something, nothing can get in the way of it.

Adam is the man!!! I came in to lose a simple 10lbs of nasty fat, but ended up leaving with my entire life transformed for the better. This guy is not only energetic, optimistic, and in super good shape himself — he is caring and will listen to every single one of your needs. He takes his time with you and he cares about your progress.
No bad experiences here.
5 out of 5 stars no problem for Adam. Highly recommended.

Adam is the perfect embodiment of everything a trainer should be. I have been training with Adam for one year now, and his passion can easily be seen through the progress of his clients. As someone who was tired of doing the same mundane routines at the gym, Adam makes working out fun and exciting. While some would want to sleep in on their days off, I wake up looking forward to our morning workouts together.
Adam’s workouts are no joke. You will love the progress you see in yourself, but you will also sit in your car after your session to collect your thoughts and think about what a crazy workout you just had. Adam is an excellent motivator, but he is also very stern. He has eyes like a hawk and will correct you as soon as he sees incorrect form.
You don’t just gain a trainer with Adam, you gain someone who truly cares about your health and well-​being. He will consistently check up on you after your sessions together and give you any advice you may need. He even takes his clients out to dinner during the holidays as a token of appreciation – you can’t buy that!
The location is great and there is plenty of space. Some of the workouts are incorporated in the parking lot which is perfect for fresh air. I love the fact that the doors of the facility roll up and let in plenty of sunshine.
Seriously, look no further if you want someone who can give you that extra motivation, progress, and results. You don’t have to take my word for it, just look at the reviews below to see you’d be making the right choice!

I have been training with Adam for 5 months now. Before training with Adam, I would work out on my own but it was not as consistent and I wasn’t getting the results I wanted. Before Adam, I would go to the gym to do mainly cardio for an hour thinking that was a real workout. I would do minimal strength training in fear of getting bulky if I lift too heavy. I would also take cycling and yoga classes to make my workouts fun. Although they were fun, I wasn’t achieving the results I was looking for.
Adam makes working out and training fun! I never get bored of our workouts. In fact, he makes me enjoy working out so much, that I actually enjoy going to the gym on my own for hours on our off days. I started training with Adam in October 2015 at 2x a week. I was loving my results so shortly after two months, I decided to train 3x a week. At my 5^th month currently and am loving the results. What I love about Adam’s training is how meticulous and detail oriented he is. He will help you get to your goals with his knowledge and training. He knows how to work literally every muscle. Even muscles I never knew I had! What I also love is how much of a stickler he is on FORM. He does not want his clients to injure themselves and wants to make sure the correct muscles are being worked on. Fitness is an investment but at the work and quality Adam brings for his clients is rare to find in a personal trainer. He really cares for his clients and wants to see his clients get to their goals.
You won’t find a trainer like Adam. I have been getting compliments from my friends, coworkers, family, and my boyfriend about my results. All thanks to Adam, I can still enjoy all of my favorite foods (flexible dieting) and train hard! You’re paying for the education, training, and looking hot. Today I tried on dresses I wasn’t too confident in 5 months ago, and tried them on today and loved what I saw. As long as you put your full trust in Adam, follow his advice and challenge yourself during your training sessions. You will get the results you want guaranteed. All thanks to Adam, I have watched myself get stronger through his knowledge and training. I have improved my range of motion and flexibility. I feel my best after our sessions and have more energy throughout the day. I have seen and felt such a big difference in my body within only five months. I am the leanest and tightest I have ever been. Summer is around the corner, what are you waiting for?

I have been working with my trainer, Adam To since July and the results have been phenomenal! My first session, I got my butt kicked and was so sore for the next few days but that didn’t stop me from coming back. Adam is extremely professional and thorough with his workout plans and explains how each workout benefits your body. He gives great tips for better dieting and gets to know his clients on a personal level, making me feel like I am more than a client he meets with an hour a day. He doesn’t mind demonstrating workouts over if any of his clients are having trouble understanding the form. I really appreciate how he focuses on my strengths and weaknesses and conducts the appropriate workouts to enhance and improve then.
The facility is super comfortable! I love how the is so much room to do so many things. All the trainers are extremely friendly; they make the environment fun and they are always encouraging everyone because well, we’re all here to leave looking good (:
I would definitely recommend this gym to everyone! Beginners, have no fear! The trainers and staff make you feel so welcomed. The moment you step foot into this gym, you are automatically a part of their community and everyone does nothing but encourage you to be at your best. This is the only workout plan I have consistently stuck with and I have no regrets. I have noticeably lost inches and pounds and receive many compliments. Thanks Adam and the staff at NLF for being so supportive of my fitness goals!

Before meeting Adam at Aesthetic Bodies, I thought I knew a thing or two about working out and training and eating healthy and stretching and everything in between… But boy oh boy did he open my eyes to all the many things I didn’t know! I met Adam at a networking event — I own a Bookkeeping business — and little did I know a few months later I would be adamant he train me.
From day one, he’s been extremely helpful and supportive, and any time I have questions outside of the gym he’s always willing to give me advice and tips. Just one example: I was out of town for work and my sciatic nerve was absolutely killing me a few days post workout. I was a competitive cheerleader and gymnast back in college and had a back injury, so my back gets pretty fussy sometimes. I asked Adam if there was any kind of stretch or exercise for the pain that I could do while I was away without a gym handy, and he sent me links to videos of the exact exercises I should do that would help until I got back. And it worked. He also focuses on my problem areas like that so I don’t injure myself more — and helps me strengthen my core to alleviate my back issues. Pure awesomeness.
With my actual work outs, he knows exactly when I’m doing improper movements and addresses it on the spot. He pushes me just to that perfect limit every time. The results I’ve gotten from him are absolutely incredible. I feel so much more energetic and healthy because of him, and feel like I have that «college cheerleader body» coming back and in no time! On top of that, Adam gives back to his clients and shows so much appreciation for us that it just makes ya melt. Oh… and he’s not bad to look at himself! He takes very good care of his own body image and is basically his own walking advertisement: P
Thank so much Adam for all you do for me!

I wanted to skinny again, and by skinny again I meant my high school days where 150 pounds looked HOT. I begged Adam to make me skinny again. He accepted the challenge and told me that he could do MORE than make me skinny; he said he could give me the physique that I’ve always desired just as long as I’m completely committed to him.
I trusted him and I made that promise.
I’ve had no prior experience with a personal trainer. To be honest, I kind of hate working out. I know nothing of fitness and nutrition.
It’s like this — a struggling math student hires a math tutor. A person looking to get fit hires Adam. It’s the same thing because, with Adam, you will get the education and the motivation to achieve your goals, whether it’s a math test or your health and physique.
But let’s cut to the chase — I’ve lost 10 pounds since starting with Adam in July 2015. I’ve gone from approx. 24% in body fat to 16.6% in body fat (that’s ACCEPTABLE to FITNESS in just 3 months!). I’ve been eating better with his advice on my nutrition and I’ve been doing my homework outside of the gym (he does request some form of cardio outside of the training sessions like biking or swimming). I mean, talk about RESULTS.
What separates him apart from other trainers is that he is meticulous and detail-​oriented. He will get on your ass about your form because if you’re working out under his watch, he ultimately wants you to do it RIGHT so that you don’t INJURE yourself. I look around me all the time at the surrounding trainers at Next Level Fitness and almost all of them fail to correct their clients form. He doesn’t ever let me take the easy way out (constantly changing my weights because I’m a p*ssy). He sees EVERYTHING lol.
He takes my measurements at the end of each month cycle. I love this. It’s like a celebration every month when the results turn out POSITIVE; it’s a feeling that is hard to describe.
Adam is making me fucking hot. What the hell are you waiting for?

I have been training with Adam for a 4 months now. I honestly did not expect much from personal traniners until I met Adam. He pretty much set the bar for what a personal trainer is suppose to be. Most trainers are pretty much set in their ways of teaching. Adam takes the time to know and understand your goals. He knows all his clients well enough to cater to their personal fitness needs whether if you are trying to lose weight or gain muscles. He is very reponsive through text and calls. That is very important to me. I can contact him any time of the day and expect a reply almost instantly. I get him 4 days out of the week in term of traning but ²⁴⁄₇ in term service.
Do expect to work hard with Adam. You will gaurantee to drench sweat with him. There is no short cut to fitness. It takes determination and patient. Adam truly taught me that. One hour with him is equivalent to 3 hours by myself. The quality of excercises that he pushes upon you is very effective. His knowledge is very vast.
As for the gym. I’m really impressed with the layout and equipments they carry. The gym is a good size. Imagine a mechanic car garage filled with equipments and fit good looking people. Free weights are stacked on one side, machines in the middle, and an open area for crossfit traning on the other side. There is a cardio room right next to the juice bar owned by Adelfo. There are 2 locker rooms and 2 bathrooms. Ventilation is good as always. Music set up is great. For additional spaces, people go outside and train in the parking lot. It’s a nice way to get fresh air. The gym is fill with great vibes and motivation. I love it every time I come. Everyone is friendly and very knowledgible about fitness. I had membership to 24 hour fitness, Planet Fitness, and LA fitness but being at Aesthetic Bodies makes me feel more comfortable. Definetely a great place to start your fitness journey.
