I hired Rey to get me stage ready for my first body building competition. He was very informative and encouraging throughout the process. Rey was always available to answer any of my questions and put my mind at ease during the challenging phases I experienced. His wealth of knowledge and humble personality is very inviting and professional. I am very happy and impressed by the results we were able to accomplish over a 16 week transformation. Thank you so much for taking me on and I look forward to the continued work and growth over the next couple of years as you help me reach my long term goals of taking it to the pro stage! More...

Rey is an amazing trainer with so much experience to offer. I was incredibly grateful I found his details online and booked the sessions for my holiday, visiting from Australia. His approach is tailored. Rather than throwing me into a session he sat down and went through my needs, and immediately identified the one thing holding me back from getting rid of unwanted belly fat was to implement a diet with many meals and protein with each meal. He took my measurements to ascertain total body fat and explained the math formula for how to lose. He didn't charge me for the consultation. He then planned stages of development and I learnt the importance of stretching before training - Rey explained fascia and the need to roll it out. Rey was very careful in showing me how to roll out and I took lots of notes and some videos of how to do properly. Since then my posture has come a long way and I'm not hurting myself using equipment- after cross fit training I was in agony rolling out my fascia with Reys guidance. My joints are so much better now. Rey emailed me my diet plan.He is such a lovely man and professional. You won't find a greater life coach... extraordinarily great value for money if you have discipline and the desire to improve your health. No judgement. Full encouragement. God bless you Rey ❤⭐ More...

I am so happy I found Rey! He is by far the best personal trainer and competition coach I could ever ask for! He is so supportive, attentive, knowledgable, and truly cares about his clients, and most importantly, their health! As far as competition prep, Rey never put me on any cookie-cutter bro diets, as he completely personalized my meal plan to my likes. One of the first things he asked was: "What do you LIKE to eat"? My calories never dipped below 1,750 the whole prep, and I never felt restricted in what I was allowed to eat. I really appreciate that Rey gave me gentle guidance, but never pushed me to do anything I was not comfortable with. He trusted me to make my own decisions, and was always available if I had any questions. I can honestly say that I got in the best/fittest shape of my life thanks to Rey! Post-show, we have been increasing my calories by reverse dieting, and my metabolism has never been higher in my life! As far as training, Rey is simply excellent. He knows how to push his clients and makes them feel motivated. I always look forward to our weekly sessions, as I know I will have a great workout! I have learned so much from Rey, from proper lifting techniques, to general knowledge about bodybuilding, as well as things about my own body! I have already referred a client to Rey, and will not hesitate to do it again! If you are looking for a trainer/coach who is knowledgable, supportive, encouraging and helps you achieve your goals in a HEALTHY and enjoyable way, look no further! Not to mention you workout sessions will be accompanied by his lovely sidekick Storm (cutest french bull dog on da island!). More...

Rey is an amazing trainer and warm person. I am a personal trainer as well and he is always helpful when I want to pick his brain a little bit. Esp when it comes to muscle imbalances and Corrective Exercises. He is a ces master! I always attend and do his Sting Rey Classic show as well. And I plan on attending the Aloha Muscle as well this year. I have never hesitated to refer clients that I believe could better benefit from his services than my own. Well respected trainer in the fitness community. Kudos to Rey! Xoxo More...

I turn 50 in a few months, and want to be in the best shape I can be. Over the years, I have had many trainers. Those trainers tended to just make me pump weights. However, when I started working out with Rey as my trainer, he taught me the importance of many different aspects of fitness beyond exercise, including, but not limited to: posture, healthy eating habits, and consistency with nutrition and supplements. Rey set me up with a complete anti-aging personal training program tailored specifically for me. Individualized training is the most beneficial, due to the fact that everyone is unique, and have different bodies, lifestyles, past history, and other characteristics. As a result of training with Rey and his personalized program, I now understand all the tasks I do during my workout, and the reasons why it will be beneficial to my body and overall health and fitness. Rey goes above and beyond trainer expectations, and he ensures that his clients are educated on each step of the process of getting fit, and exactly what it takes to achieve your personal goals. Rey is a strong motivator and constantly encourages me, and this support is especially needed during my off days to keep me going. During my first consultation with Rey, he smiled and said, "Age is just a number." From then on, his high spirits have boosted my exercise routine, and his actions and hard work are showing itself within my results. There are no words to express how ecstatic and happy I am with my results so far. I'm actually starting to see a transformation, particularly with my stomach and butt area. My daughter even noticed the muscle lines starting to form! I have no doubt that continuing my training from Rey will eventually award me with abs! Just the other day, I was excited to see that my once flat bottom now has characteristics of a small tight apple butt! I could never get these results from any other trainer but Rey. I have so much gratitude to him. Rey is a rare and amazing personal trainer and educator. If you are serious about getting fit and learning what it takes to get to your goal, you must definitely contact Rey. More...

I started training with Rey in January of this year.  He was very supportive and encouraging.  Within the first few weeks, I was seeing so much improvement. What I like most about Rey is that he is trained not only on the physical side but also on the nutrition and diet side.  He educated me and his goal was always to get me independent so I could continue my fitness journey with or without him.His focus was always on my goals and not on lining his pockets.  Over the five months that I have known and worked with Rey, he has become a good friend of mine.I recommend anyone serious about reaching your fitness goals but just don't know how to start it how to evaluate where you are, give Rey a call.  You'll be glad you did.  I was!

Q&As

I train my clients to be self sufficient in nutrition and training, by educating every time we have a session. My goal is to train them to the point where they don't need me anymore as a trainer. I feel I've done my job, when my clients are addicted to exercise and eat a healthier on a daily basis.

You have to really want to achieve your fitness goal first of all. That means, you're not going to give up when things get tough (exercise and nutrition). Then you need to find a good coach that is knowledgeable, motivating and has a great track record (check out testimonials by past clients). Again, do your research on trainer's that have great results with their clients.

I love seeing my clients transform their life through exercise and proper nutrition. Seeing their confidence improve is the MOST SATISFYING part of my job!

I am a former regional fitness manager for 24 Hour Fitness Hawaii and the Honolulu Club, where I had a whole TEAM of trainers that I had to develop. It was great to learn the corporate side of the business but my real passion was training people and helping them achieve their fitness goals.

I have been in the fitness industry since 1991. I've been a trainer, a nutrition tech, fitness manager, general manager, and regional fitness director. I've trained over 1000 clients by now and is a member of Presidential Who's Who, Stanford Who's Who, Cambridge Who's Who and Remington Registry as the Top Fitness Trainer in the nation. I also won the Mr. USA in 2003 and the Masters National in 2002. More importantly, I have more experience than most trainers in Hawaii.
