Scavo Fitness

Jeff's super power is to understand your needs. This helps him customize your training for you. He travels to you and meets me where it is convenient for me. When I travel he offers online training.

Thanks Jeff for helping me, since I started training with you, my mood and energy has been great. More...

Jeff is fantastic. He is focused on my success and his enthusiasm and conviction motivate me to get the most out of my workouts. Jeff is knowledgeable and does a fantastic job of helping me understand the mind to body connection of each exercise. This results in a more targeted overall workout. He is also cognizant of only engaging in safe movements and the other equally critical component of fitness, which is eating to properly fuel the body. More...

Jeff becomes a friend first and then a trainer. This way he understands you better and adapts to your needs. I never feel I am tired or exhausted after a training but always feel pumped. Great work Jeff.

Jeff works on targeting very specific muscles. The workout is precise. Never had a trainer like this. I'm familiar with weight training but the workouts he has me do are different.

Jeff is amazing to work with. I’ve played sports and trained my entire life. I am now in my mid-40s and it’s great to have someone like Jeff teach me new techniques that are appropriate for my build and abilities. He is very knowledgeable not only in form and the functionality of the different muscle groups, but also has great tips for diet and lifestyle choices. The biggest plus is he is very flexible with our busy schedules and will travel to our house for either early morning or afternoon workouts. Very personable, fun, and great taste in music! More...

Jeff is one of the good guys. He has taught me good form, posture, technique, and most of all, patience. He introduces new topics and exercises when appropriate and I've never been trained by anyone like this before. He teaches fitness as a lifelong process, to help you become the better version of yourself, no matter where you are. I recommend him highly for any fitness level and after a few months, I have changed my perception on fitness and vitality and he's exceeded my expectations. Looking forward to the next level.

The most amazing personal trainer in all of OC. I have been working with Jeff since really long now and must say his services are unparalleled. He has helped me transform my body in ways that I never could have imagined before. I have tried various different workout platforms as well as couple of trainers before without much progress but I have been constantly getting results since I started working with him! More...

Amazing trainer who really helps me to push and better myself each session. I would highly recommend Jeff as a trainer.

Jeff Scavo has been training me ONLINE from the start of Jan 2021. He pays attention to detail. Jeff created a custom training routine for me based on my body type, my goals and my eating habits.

He gave me an overview of the areas we would be working on. Due to Pandemic situation I didnt want to do training in person. So we did all the traings via zoom. Jeff guided me to setup my home envinrment correctly. Now during few days I can do excercises on my own as well.

Jeff has this Mind to muscle connection concept which helped me focus on specific muscle for muscle growth. I am very happy with the results and would highly recommend Jeff for your training needs. More...

Jeff is a great coach as he works with you in a patient and encouraging manner. He emphasizes correct posture and the need to maintain it during workout which hardly anybody does. He is also flexible and is good coach with dietary tips etc. There are very few like him out there. More...

Jeff is the real deal. He worked with my schedule and level of fitness and implemented a process that is effective and works. Trust the process! Super pleased with hiring Scavo Fitness and I recommend his program to anyone looking to get in shape or take their strength training to the next level. More...

Jeff Scavo has tailored the exercises we do to my personal goals. He makes what I want to do as my personal priorities. He has changed the way I eat and exercise! I have seen immediate results from Jeff's persoanal training methods! More...

Finding a personal trainer for my husband was tough, but I am so glad I chose Jeff and so was my husband. Jeff had a new client special that I took advantage of. I initially purchased five lessons with Jeff per request of my husband for his birthday (just to clarify the lessons were for my husband, not for me...that would be kind of an odd birthday gift to ask for). My husband had some experience working out at the gym but hadn't gotten into a routine for some time. So my husband thought he could meet with Jeff once a week to have a workout and then get a workout plan for the rest of the week for five weeks total. However, after an initial discussion with Jeff, he had taken Jeff's advice to meet three times per week instead. What a huge difference this made! Every lesson Jeff took time prior to the workout to talk about how the diet was going and what the next steps could be for improvement. Never did my husband feel pressured to lie about what he was eating or doing outside of the workouts and never did my husband feel judged on decisions that may not have been in line with what Jeff recommended. After the second workout, my husband was convinced to start a twelve week program (36 lessons total) with Jeff. Each workout was tailored specifically to my husband's development. They worked out at a park that was near our place and Jeff was extremely flexible on the schedule/location. Each workout was tightly focused using free weights and Jeff's "stimulate, don't annihilate" approach allowed my husband to not feel tortured the next day with excessive soreness (he still had some soreness since he was breaking down muscle tissue). In all the years of training or playing sports, my husband said he hasn't seen the type of change that occurred with Jeff. The only downside was that it had to end because we couldn't afford to keep the program going. My husband now has a much better idea on how to combine weight training, cardio and diet and attributes it to the time spent with Jeff this past summer. He said he'd recommend anyone at any stage in their fitness to try at least a few lessons. Jeff's 20+ years of experience are well worth tapping into! More...

Jeff helped me to achieve the results I was looking for.  He has a wealth of knowledge for training and is able to customize training regiments to help you reach the goals you are looking to achieve.  If you are looking to get started or need help getting over the hump to get the results you have been working for I highly recommend Scavo Fitness and Jeff.

I worked with Jeff about a year ago and was on his program for about 6 months. I was 54 at the time and lost 45 pounds working with Jeff's program, which got me right where I wanted to be weight wise. More importantly, I felt much stronger, more fit, and able to perform the sports I love, namely racquetball and mountain biking.I've worked out for most of my life and thought I was pretty well-versed on how to do so. That turned out to be false. Jeff really knows how to take you from where you are to where you want to be. Doctors would call that "meeting the patient where they are". He's constantly educating you on proper technique, how your body really works, and giving you tricks to maximize your time in the gym and to make your calories count. Much of this comes from his time competing as a body builder, but is not overly burdensome. Having said that, you will need to put in the work and embrace a measure of dietary discipline... no surprises there.Jeff is not one of these run-of-the-mill gym trainers marking off sets and reps on a checklist. He knows when you are hurting and when you are holding back, and will push you right to that line without allowing you to injure yourself. It really is uncanny that he knows to stop you at just the right rep... no more counting to 10, that means nothing! Jeff will work with your schedule, is always on time and never canceled a scheduled session with me.If getting in shape is just a passing interest, use a gym trainer or a friend. If you are committed, step up. Jeff is the real deal ! More...
