Good service until you want to leave!

I had the experience of working with Sean for several months with an excellent overall outcome. It was when I had to cancel my subscription that DK Fitness failed. There is no cancellation button on their website or app. Even though I emailed 3 times several weeks before the renewal date, their system illegally swiped my credit card for another 2 months.... shame on you guys!

I wish I had started this earlier

I have been working with Sean for 3 months now and it has been fantastic. I wish I had done this earlier.

He works hard to help me understand why we are doing certain things and I am finding it much easier to make good choices and to stick with a plan for the gym. I am finding it so much easier than anything else I have tried and getting significant results.

I recommend this extremely highly, the combination of improving diet and exercise is made so much easier by having a knowledgeable coach. It has made a huge difference to me after only 3 months.

Expert Coaching

I joined over 12 months ago and was assigned Paul as my personal trainer. Paul has been fantastic, very knowledgeable, kind, understanding and motivating. The results I have achieved over this time period have been astonishing and that is due to Paul’s expertise. I’m very grateful to have had Paul as my coach and I am looking forward to continuing on and progressing even further.

Game changer

I have really enjoyed the comprehensive training and diet advice customized to my lifestyle, habits, and interests to obtain real long lasting results. The accountability of Paul and his approach has been a game changer for me and my very busy life.

Great Coaching for individuals …

My Coach Paul has been extremely helpful and patient helping me progress from struggling with motivation, consistency and poor diet choices to find what works for me. Now I feel I am making real progress and starting to dial things up whilst staying motivated and more confident.

I’ve used this program twice and both times I had super knowledgeable and motivational trainers. That being said, I felt that it was just too expensive for the results. What is shown in the transformations is very rare so please don’t expect that to happen. You’re better off using peloton digital or Barry’s X which are less than $50 a month and learn how to do macros in MFP using Chat GPT. Lovely people but I can’t endorse spending thousands of dollars for nothing.

Worth a try

Program wasn't for me but coaches where upstanding and refunded after I explained my concerns. Not for me but worth a try

Working with David is a fantastic experience. He and his team really personalise my routine based on the equipment I have, my goals and also my age/limitations. I always feel challenged, but not overstretched to the point that I'm in pain.

They also emphasize complete body/mind fitness, and that can include breathing, meditation, cold immersion and also diet. I found that one of the major reasons I wasn't meeting my goals is I didn't have my nutrition sorted, and after I was able to get that back on track my gains accelerated dramatically.

Highly recommended, great value.

Highly Recommended. This program WORKS!

I have just completed a 7-month run with David Kingsbury's program...guided by the most rad trainer David S. This program works! I've lost 30lbs+, lost 5" around my waist, gained muscle and feel less stressed, stronger and more confident!

David S provided all the guidance, support and feedback to keep me motivated on my journey and challenged. Highly recommend the program.

I can't recommend Sean highly enough

I can't recommend Sean highly enough. He combines a deep knowledge of exercise and nutrition with a great ability to motivate. The exercises and diet he sets are easy to follow and track, and the regular calls are perfect for asking questions, making adjustments and staying motivated. I've found his approach to be the balance of guidance and letting you get on with it. I actually prefer it to working 1 on 1 with a trainer in the gym.

I was introduced to David Kingsbury by a friend and I strongly recommend them. The knowledge and approach of the coaches is impressive focuses on so much more than just the physical training, giving valuable advice and guidance for life, nutrition and well-being. The coaches are really good at explaining why they make recommendations much of which challenges my previous views - it is amazing to see just how much I had wrong. The results are immediate and have delivered more in three months than I achieved in thirty years. The coaching encourages accountability and self-discipline helping to ensure the good habits persist. I strongly recommend David Kingsbury to anyone looking for long term improvement.

Hands down best programming

One would think as a former Green Beret I would have a solid background in fitness. After leaving active duty in 2015, I let myself slide.

From the first call, I knew Sean was a solid trainer. His brutal honesty and poignant advice is exactly what I need.

Sean is a consummate professional. He makes time to actually get to know and understand those he trains.

Sean’s constant steady pressure and adjustments lead to tremendous improvements in mind, body, and spirit.

Having let everything slide during lockdown i decided to give the David Kingsbury plan a go as a means to kickstart a return to fitness and a more healthy direction. I particularly want to thank my trainer Sean who has stuck with me through any number of setbacks, challenges and accompanying dips in motivation. Never any judgement, just solid advice, simple tips and encouragement to get me back on track and well on my way to attaining my goals. Can't recommend their combination of training and good nutrition enough.

Absolutely the best ive used

After coming out of lockdown my physique had regressed to the point of looking unhealthy and my motivation for training had gone but i knew i had to turn it around. This is when i signed up with David, as for me personally i need accountability and having to update on a wekly basis was just the motivation i needed. Ive used other trainers but none take the time to understand your personal needs and goals as much as David does, i have injuries that didnt help with my motivation but David gave me advice and a programme to combat this and made sure i was able to perform the exercises. Any queries or adjustments i had or needed were dealt with very prompt and with no questions. Nutrition for me is the biggest thing as you have to like what you eat and the meals provided in David's plans are the best ive had off any trainer, no tuna,rice & broccoli and lots of variation catered to your exact macros.

I would 100% recoomend David to anyone wanting to become healthier and fitter.

Paul Emmons -DK Fitness

I was hesitant for years about signing up being one of those that believed there was enough free info online to not need to pay for it, how wrong was i!! After injuring the tendons in both elbows and having 6 months out the gym (i can't do running so it was out the question) i shot up to my heaviest at 18st5lb and really hit a self confidence crisis.
The first conversation i had with davids team was very professional and honest. When i said i wanted to get to 16st in the 6months the coach was honest about how big a goal that was and how it can take years to drop that much weight. I liked the honesty.
I was then paired up with Paul Emmons and he had a very similar honest view point. Paul really took the injury into account at the start, he built a program that helped me lose weight well rehabbing and every couple of days if i didn't reach out to paul he would check in with me, any issues i had with lifts he would do a video analysis of my form and swap it out if required.
His help didn't stop at the gym doors. His guidance in the nutrition and cooking department was just as vital. Being a man who's cooking skills was confinded to a microwave or just eat, paul gave me allot of tips, tricks and basic recipes that really helped me learn to cook.
Theres a million ways i could praise paul for my time working with him, by the end of my time i not only reached my 16st goal but managed to sit at 15st10lb consistantly (30lb total) and feel like i got my life back. I have returned to surfing which i haven't done for 5 years and never been stronger in the water and started some new sports i was too self conscious to try.
Long story short, Paul Emmons wasn't just an incredible trainer, he really helped me turn my life around and i would recommend him to anybody and everybody.

Highly recommended

I was trained by Paul - he did such a great job of motivating and guiding me towards my goal. I reached my goal in a short period of time and can 100% say this wouldn't have been possible without Paul's help. I will not hesitate to come back if I ever need support in the future. Thanks for everything.

Awesome Fitness Experience

It’s been a great experience with David Stocks. I started this weight loss journey some time ago and I am glad I was able to get the guidance and support I needed from David. His knowledge and direction helped me along the way to a better me. I was able to gain muscle and get over some plateaus along the way. I am 46 and feel great. David was amazing and patient with me. I would highly recommend David and Team DK for your own fitness journey.
Thanks mate 😊
