I’ve only been with Nielsen Fitness for a few months now and it was the best decision I’ve made. When I first approached Nielsen Fitness, I was hesitant as I had bad experiences with other gyms and trainers before, but from the first meeting with Poul (the owner) I realised I had no reason to be. He listened to all my fears and asked all the right questions regarding my health and what I was looking for in a program. He set me up with my trainer and before I knew it I was seeing changes in not only my posture, but my overall health was improving. My trainer Mihai is great with designing a program that works best for my health issues and is nothing but encouraging while I work out. I also love the fact that if I can’t make it to the studio, my trainer can make home visit so I don’t miss any sessions. I am so very glad I walked into the studio that day. More...

I have been working out with Nielsen fitness for 2 years. It has been fantastic. I finally have a plan and approach that keeps me motivated and excited for the next session after years of procrastination and unused gym memberships. My trainer, Evian pushes me in all the right ways and is also a great guy and conversationalist. See you next Saturday!! More...

Been working out with Liz for a little over a month – so far it’s been amazing. As for someone who has a 9-5 lifestyle, been in and out of gyms – Nielsen Fitness has been helping me reach my goals and sustain a lifestyle within my busy schedule. Liz brings such positive energy into our workouts and provides different routines depending on my levels (energized, tired, stressed, etc.) I would with no doubt recommend Nielsen Fitness to anyone looking to improve their lifestyle and achieve goals on a flexible schedule and in-home space, so there are no more excuses!

If you’re looking for a fitness program tailored to your needs then contact Nielsen Fitness! I had a full knee replacement a few months ago and wanted personalized advice on how to optimize my rehab and was fortunate to be connected to Dylan Rodgers from Nielsen. Dylan took the time to understand what I was looking for and used his knowledge and experience to design exercises that matched my level of fitness (or lack of!), accounted for the recent surgery and took into account the ‘soft side’ of figuring out how to work with a fake body part! Dylan’s sense of humour and calm demeanour also made each session enjoyable - even my family loved him! If you’re tired of being fit into a pattern or protocol or rehab and are looking for something personalized, I would highly recommend Nielsen and Dylan! More...

Poul and his team are incredible. After a horrible and disheartening experience with one of the large commerical gyms and being told that the only road to success is dedicated personal training and spending more money, I took a co-workers recommendation to meet with Poul. Poul took the time to listen first. Understanding where I came from with regards to previous exercise routines, where I was physically at this moment and then where I wanted to go. Did I want to be a competitive body builder, a marathon running or just a guy with a little less of a Dad bod. I picked the third option and I'm still at it. Every session I walk away with a nugget. Something special to apply to my workouts, or my diet or even my attitude towards life. I know I couldn't be where I am today without Poul, Sam and the team at Nielson Fitness. If you are looking for honesty, integrity and a long term partner with your physical health, give them a call. More...

I was referred to Nielson Fitness by my acupuncturist who I was seeing for my chronic back pain. At first I was not overly enthused as I thought why do I need a personal trainer, I have been working out at the gym my whole life and did not see any benefit in going to Nielson. I said ok and let's try it out.I couldn't have been more wrong!!- Not only did they get me on a new program, they also showed me how to do my current exercises correctly without hurting myself- This was a tremendous help and they offered flexible training sessions and monitored my progress.

Monday morning, 6:00 am and I am wide awake. In five hours, Andre will enter the apartment. What mental pressure will he put us through today? A lecture on gourmet cooking? Will artificial intelligence take over the world? Will Claire finally concede the sun rises in the east (or black is black)? Will there be a lengthy discussion on the benefits of green peas, while ignoring yours truly struggling on the 72nd squat and counting?So, to be clear, Andre is our fitness instructor extraordinaire from Nielsen Fitness. He spends two hours a week putting my wife and me through our paces. In addition to encouraging Claire that 12 reps are better than 10 (number of fingers does not matter), he lightens the workouts through his “topic for the day”. Have his distraction efforts been successful? A definite YES. Claire’s second knee replacement was a resounding success. Her efforts, and the training program Andre devised, allowed a remarkable recovery.If you are contemplating any form of surgery, or just wish to improve your physical abilities, Nielsen Fitness is highly recommended. If you do not like peas, you might make this known when you sign up. And, if you are mathematically challenged, the excellent trainers are quite willing to count for you. More...

Nielsen Fitness is a great company that really cares about its clients. I started with them over 2 years ago after having a baby - they paired me with someone who was perfect for my situation and made me feel comfortable (I was still nursing and would do so during sessions sometimes) and helped me get back into shape post-baby. When she unfortunately left the company (to pursue another opportunity - nothing to do with the company), they put me with someone who they thought would be helpful to my particular joint problems. It unfortunately did not work out as we just did not click - I was nervous about calling Jonathan to tell him this, but my concerns were listened to, taken seriously and addressed immediately. I was put with Audrey who I have been working with for over a year now. She is fantastic and I could not ask for anyone better. I am a mom with a full time job and I did not think I could find a company that would be so accommodating and flexible, while still helping me try to stay in shape. Audrey understands when things come up and I have to cancel, but she is also really good about pushing me to still progress with my fitness as much as I can. This company has definitely worked for me. They will also follow up to see if you are meeting your goals through measurements, etc., but if that doesn't work for you and you just want to do things more on your own (which was the case for me), they are not pushy and just let you be and move at your own pace. I am very happy with my experience thus far. More...

Working for Nielsen Fitness as a personal trainer has been my most positive career decision. Poul Nielsen and his team of managers make "work" feel like fun by being motivating, encouraging and energetic while still keeping professional. Communication within the company is beyond excellent and no one was more than a quick phone call or text away, being followed by an instant reply. This is a very close-knit business that ensures that not only the clients are happy, but also the employees! The team ensures you are more than comfortable conducting 1-on-1 session by having you shadow senior trainers before starting solo sessions with clients of your own, so no one ever feels intimidated. I would 100% without hesitation recommend Nielsen Fitness as a place of work or a training facility to any of my friends or family if they are looking for a real,caring, and educated team to lead them to success. The knowledge and skills I've gained not only as a trainer, but a life coach have been invaluable. More...

Platinum sessions range from $88 to $125 per session, depending on the package you select, with the average investment being about $95 per session.

Express sessions are 40 minutes in length and range from $62 to $84 per session, depending on the package you select, with the average being about $66 per session.

Plus Stretch is a 20 minute add-on of dedicated stretching time. In these 20 minutes, your Nielsen Fitness Personal Trainer will gently and effectively stretch your muscles at the end of your workout. You can add Plus Stretch to any one of your workouts for $40.
When done properly and for long enough, stretching has a ton of benefits, including increased muscle length, strength and mobility, and lubrication in the joints. Plus many of our clients have reported experiencing less pain and tension due to tightness, along with a faster recovery. Plus, it just feels really really good.
