My name is Devin Neilson and I am a NASM certified Personal Trainer, Flexibility Specialist as well as a Behavioral Specialist with a passion for living a healthy lifestyle. I live in New York City and train 1:1 and small groups out of a private studio as well as home/apartment gyms.
I have been training for 3 years now beginning at a local gym in Utah helping clients unlock great achievements in losing weight, gaining strength and muscle mass.
I have a passion for fitness and strive to live by the motto "Practice what you Preach." I love being able share my knowledge and experience with others to help them achieve their health and fitness goals.
I grew up in Utah as an athlete playing sports such as basketball, baseball, soccer and was also a gymnast. Gymnastics was the sport that really got me in to keeping a strong and healthy body. I was a gymnast for 10 years and then was Gymnastics coach for 11 years until I decided to make the switch to personal training.
Using my skills as a gymnast and gymnastics coach has been very useful in helping individuals learn basic movement patterns and exercises which lead to the lifting of heavier weights with proper form. It also has helped me to identify faulty movement patterns in individuals.
