Testimonials

Scott has been training me for the past 3 months and I’m overall impressed with the progress I’ve made because of him. He is very patient and honestly wonderful with all the information he’s giving me about conditioning, eating healthy, and building a balanced between fitness and food.

Prior to finding Scott, I had no muscles, weak, battling Chronic Fatigue Syndrome from a blood condition I was born with. I was also at risk for osteoporosis, always out of breath, and in pain because I had no strength for my body to hold itself up.

I worked 24/7 from home and constantly sat in a desk for 10-12 hours per day.

1 month & 20 sessions later: I began seeing my strength build up, no sciatic nerve pain, and was consistent with working out.

2 months & ~40 sessions in: I’m seeing my physique change, I started seeing more progression in my muscles, felt my confidence boosting, and breathing easier.

I will continue my sessions with Scott because he hit all the criterias and goals that I set for myself. He is observant, motivates you to keep moving forward, constantly fixing my form to avoid injuries I can’t afford to have, and reminds me to breathe so that I don’t pass out. (Lol)

Pinpoint fitness is also very clean, has all the equipment you need, and easy parking.

When I retired three years ago, I started training with Scott of PinPoint Fitness with the idea of maintaining fitness. I’ve achieved much more than that! With Scott’s focus on technique and injury prevention, my strength, endurance, and flexibility are markedly improved, and I’m even eating better. It has also helped me immensely in all my athletic pursuits. I look forward to many more years of biking, tennis, hiking, and rafting.

Thanks, PinPoint Fitness!

We brought Anthony to PinPoint Fitness 1-and-a-half years ago, hoping his workouts would make him a better hockey player. We never imagined the results that would come and how fast they would happen. When Anthony first came to PinPoint Fitness he was playing on a tier 3 hockey team; it was toward the end of his season. Only six months later during his tryouts he was asked to play on a tier 1 team. We were all very pleased, no one more than Anthony. He is now excelling on his tier 1 team. He skates faster and more explosively than we could have asked for. He is stronger and more confident than ever. We look forward to great things from him.

Having recently moved to Fairfield, I didn't have any local friends to help me on my quest for a personal fitness trainer. And so I turned to my good old friend Google and chanced upon Scott/Pinpoint (like you are probably doing now). I jumped in with a leap of faith and ain't I glad I did!

Scott is everything the other reviewers have mentioned and more - knowledgeable, accommodative, absolute stickler for form, 100% focused during sessions and relatable. The gym is well maintained and has a good variety of machines conducive to varied forms of exercise.

I still have a long path ahead to reach my personal fitness goals but I love the mini-challenges Scott throws at me to keep me motivated, not to mention the good natured banter that makes every session interesting!

PinPoint Fitness is top notch! Scott is an incredibly knowledgeable and professional personal trainer. He will work with you to find convenient times to come for sessions and you have this modern clean facility with more equipment than you could ever use all to yourself during private one on one sessions. Scott's years of study and experience in the field are clearly evident from your very first session. He emphasizes and teaches proper form to maximize your results in the gym while making sure you are always safe and avoiding injuries. Scott also is very skilled at helping rehab injuries you have previously suffered by incorporating specific exercise regimens, formal stretching, and educating you about nutrition. Do something positive for yourself and start training with Scott at PinPoint Fitness!

I used to work out at various gyms in the Fairfield area for years. Then I got sick — cancer. It robbed me of my muscle mass and energy. I’m happy to say I’m on the road to recovery & a big part of that is Scott. He’s been so encouraging which I’ve really needed. He keeps me motivated and believing that I can succeed & put muscle back on. And I am — it’s working! Scott is an excellent trainer & works with you, at your pace, but he will push you when you need it. He explains exercises very clearly & I’m convinced he can help ANYone from those who need rebuilding (like me) to those aspiring to go beyond their perceived limits. Really clean, well-equipped gym too. Highly recommend.

Scott Shapiro, owner of Pinpoint Fitness, has been an important part of my continuing recovery and strength building after a struggle with Lyme disease. He does not just train; he educates and develops the correct program for your needs.

When I first began training with Scott, there were days I could not lift an ounce, had no energy and could barely stretch myself out. I had absolutely no motivation and it took a whole lot to drag myself to the gym. I am so glad I did, as of today, I am stronger than I have ever been and it makes a huge difference in my daily life. I look forward to my sessions. I have more energy, walk with a bounce in my step and my strength and endurance have vastly improved. Scott is patient, knowledgeable, and humorous and he gets results. I would highly recommend PinPoint Fitness personal training to get you on your way to a healthier, happier, stronger you.

Scott is an exceptional and experienced trainer who takes the time to help you learn exercises the right way--safely for your body and for maximum effectiveness.

I brought my son to Scott for strength training coming off a serious knee injury. It was after his rehab a little over two years ago. My son thrived in the private setting and with the much needed individual attention. Scott is very knowledgeable about fitness and personalized his workout around his rehabilitation. To increase his flexibility, break up scar tissue and increase his strength. His performance has steadily improved. Scott is also a caring person; Scott and my son formed a wonderful bond based on trust and a joint passion for movies.

Highly recommend Scott! Never considered weight training until a friend recommended it after my third child, and I can't believe how great it has been for me. I feel like I'm in the best shape of my life. It has helped my tennis too and just overall feels great. Scott has a a nice private space with a bunch of cardio options. I can watch my favorite shows while I'm working out either before or after my session. This set up and Scott's coaching has helped me fit exercise into my busy life.

Scott is a highly experienced and meticulous personal trainer. I appreciate his attention to detail when it comes to strength training. Scott always focuses on making sure exercises are done with proper form for maximum results and most importantly, to avoid injury. Our family enjoys the casual and personal atmosphere of Pinpoint Fitness. I can say after working out with Scott for a full year that I feel stronger in my 40s than I have ever felt in my life. Highly recommend training with Scott!

I have been working out with Scott for over 10 years! Scott is a true expert at what he does and I love how much he knows about and focuses on proper technique to maximize results and minimize the risk of injury. Scott’s expertise is a big reason why I knew that when my teenage son decided he wanted to work out, Scott was the best choice. My son has been working out with Scott for almost 6 months and is loving it! Highly recommend Scott as a personal trainer for all ages!!
