You start strong, then work, family and travel take over, and the routine disappears.
A body that changed
Energy, strength and weight don't respond the way they used to, and nobody explained why.
Fear of getting hurt
Old injuries, tight joints or a heart-health history make "just push harder" advice feel risky.
No way to see progress
The scale moves one way or the other and you can't tell if the plan is actually working.
Whether you're 32 or 72, training should be measured, progressive and personal. That is exactly how I coach.
Where we train
Two ways to work together. One standard of coaching.
Studio
Train in a quiet, private space at 1200 S Rogers Cir, Boca Raton (appointment only). No crowds, no waiting for equipment, and my full attention for every minute of the session.
I come to you in Boca Raton or Delray Beach: your home, your condo gym or your community fitness center. No commute, and nothing to rearrange in your day.
We measure first. Then we train. Then we measure again.
Your program is built from your own numbers, so every session has a reason and every month shows proof.
01
Free consultation
A 20-minute conversation about your goals, history, schedule and any health considerations. If we're a fit, we plan your first session.
02
Full assessment
Body composition, cardiovascular fitness, strength and mobility screening. This is your baseline, and it keeps training safe from day one.
03
A plan built on your findings
Every exercise, load and progression is chosen from your assessment results, then fitted to your schedule and equipment.
04
Track and adjust
We reassess every 4 to 6 weeks and update your plan, so you see real progress in your numbers, not just in the mirror. No long-term commitment: stay only if you're happy with your results.
Body composition, cardio fitness, strength and mobility testing form the foundation of your entire plan.
A program that is only yours
No templates. Exercises, intensity and progression come directly from your assessment findings and goals.
Form and joint-friendly progression
You learn to move well first, then we add load, so you build strength without paying for it in aches and injuries.
Progress tracking
Scheduled reassessments with measurements and body composition, so you can see exactly what is changing.
Accountability that keeps you going
Someone expecting you, tracking your results and adjusting the plan when life gets busy. Support between sessions by message.
Practical nutrition guidance
Simple, sustainable eating guidance that fits your lifestyle and supports the training you're doing.
Client results
Real people. Real progress.
Every plan starts from your assessment and is reassessed every few weeks, so the progress you feel shows up in your numbers too. Here's what that looks like for clients across Boca Raton and Delray Beach.
Post-pregnancy recovery
Megan, 41 · Boca Raton
Huge difference in 3 months
After gaining over 15 kg following my pregnancy, I was really discouraged with my body. After only 3 months of training with Filipe, I already feel a huge difference. Best investment I've ever made.
Recovery after injury
Harold, 77 · Delray Beach
Results from the first visit
I was left with a broken neck and major strength and balance loss after being hit by a car while cycling. Filipe built a program tailored to my specific challenges, and I saw results from the first visit.
Strength after surgery
Elaine, 72 · Delray Beach
Progress she never expected in 6 months
After multiple joint replacements, physical therapy didn't help. In just six months with Filipe, I've made progress I never expected. He tracks my results every session and finds new ways to target my weaknesses.
Individual results vary and depend on consistency, nutrition and starting point.

What clients say
In their words.
Exceptional professional! Knowledgeable, attentive, and relentless in his dedication. He won't rest until his clients fully understand and master every detail of proper exercise technique. Keep up the great work!
Greg, 45 · Boca Raton
Excellent professional, committed and fully invested in every workout. I'm seeing results I've never achieved before! Highly recommend!
Karen, 49 · Boca Raton
Excellent professional! He has the knowledge and experience we need to make the most of our workouts within the limited time we have. Highly recommend!
Tom, 63 · Boca Raton
After gaining over 15 kg (about 33 lbs) following my pregnancy, I was really discouraged with my body. I've trained since my teens, but pregnancy changed me more than I expected, and some things really bothered me. After only 3 months of training with Filipe, I already feel a huge difference. I still have a lot of room to grow, but I wouldn't have gotten here without his help. Best investment I've ever made!
Megan, 41 · Boca Raton
I'm 77 and was left with a broken neck and major strength and balance loss after being hit by a car while cycling. Filipe built a program tailored to my specific challenges, and I saw results from the first visit. He guides my form on every exercise, adjusts when something isn't working, and keeps each session varied without exhausting me. He's highly trained, encouraging, and personable, and I look forward to every session with him.
Harold, 77 · Delray Beach
Filipe is a highly competent and dedicated trainer. He truly knows how to build a personalized coaching plan, and he genuinely cares about my progress and my satisfaction with the workouts. He's very attentive and answers all my questions. I'm so grateful to have a top-level professional guiding my training.
Daniel, 48 · Delray Beach
After multiple joint replacements, I'd lost significant strength and physical therapy didn't help. In just six months with Filipe, I've made progress I never expected. He tracks my results every session, pushes me to do more, and finds new ways to target my weaknesses while preventing injuries. I wish I had started sooner.
Elaine, 72 · Delray Beach
Filipe is an excellent trainer: focused, professional, fun, and easygoing. He's great at tailoring the workouts to my goals and pulling extra effort out of me that I wouldn't give on my own.
Tyler, 32 · Boca Raton
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is personal training right for me if I'm out of shape or over 40?
Yes. Most of my clients are adults in their 40s, 50s and beyond who are starting from where they are. Your assessment sets the starting point, and the program builds from there at a pace your body can handle.
I have injuries or a health condition. Is it safe to train?
Safety comes first. We start with a conversation about your history and a movement and fitness assessment. If your situation calls for it, I'll ask you to check with your doctor before we begin and will work within their guidance.
What happens in the free consultation?
A relaxed 20-minute conversation. We talk about your goals, training history, schedule and health considerations, and I explain how I'd approach your plan. There's no pressure to sign up.
How long are sessions, and how often should I train?
Sessions last 50–60 minutes. Most clients train two or three times a week. I'll recommend a schedule based on your goals, availability and budget.
How soon will I see results?
It depends on your starting point, consistency and nutrition. Many clients feel stronger and more energetic within the first few weeks, while visible body changes build over several months. We reassess regularly so you can see progress in your numbers along the way.
How much does it cost, and is there a contract?
Packages start at $500 per month, and the full details are in the Packages section above. There is no long-term contract. Clients renew month to month.
What if I need to reschedule or cancel a session?
Just give me at least 24 hours' notice and we'll move the session with no penalty. Same-day changes may count as a used session.
Where do you train clients?
In Boca Raton and Delray Beach, either at my studio (1200 S Rogers Cir, Boca Raton, FL) or at your home, condo gym or community fitness center.
