about me
I’ve been training clients since 2001. Over the years, I’ve worked with clients of all types and abilities. I handle each one differently, based on their history, their personality and their goals. There’s no ‘one size fits all’ approach to training. Since every day is different, I’m not a trainer who stands with a client and counts reps. I take an all-around approach, from functional training and bodybuilding to incorporating exercises from different activities from yoga to pilates. I personally get bored with the same old routine, and I know my clients do too, so the workout programs are always evolving. Online training has recently become popular and I’m loving working with people from not only Chicagoland, but all around North America. Contact me for a consultation and we can figure out if we’d be a good fit!
SERVICES
IN-HOME TRAINING
With in-home training, you don't need to stress about having equipment or traveling to the gym. Geoff Young Fitness comes to you! I can work out in your home or in a private personal training studio nearby. I’m limited to the north suburbs of Chicago. Contact me for my availability.

Online personal training programs specifically designed for you. I make them personally, just for you, based on our conversations. I’ll design your program using whatever equipment you have, whether you’re working out at home or in a gym.
HYBRID TRAINING
With hybrid training, you'll receive all of the benefits that come with online training plus one-on-one in-person workouts. Rates depend on frequency and location. Most of my clients train 1 to 2 times per month.
REVIEWS
On top of being a great person Geoff is a knowledgeable trainer and really holds you accountable. I started out as a in home client with a goal of losing weight and getting healthier/more fit. Over two years I kept crushing goals and have lost about 45 pounds. In an effort to increase weekly workouts while managing cost I was one of Geoff’s first hybrid clients. We met in person once a week and virtually twice more per week. I was really satisfied with that approach and achieved great results. I highly recommend Geoff to anyone looking for a well rounded trainer that also focuses on nutrition and the mental/motivational side of self development.

Geoff has been an outstanding and valuable addition to our health and fitness regiment as our personal trainer. My husband and I have been working with him for close to four years. Geoff has seamlessly navigated us toward our fitness goals despite our busy work schedules and illnesses/injuries/life set backs at times. His training sessions have always been perfectly in line with our goals and he has gone above and beyond in terms of offering new and unique fitness opportunities & ideas outside of our normal routines. Geoff has a keen understanding of our strengths and weaknesses and has the expertise to ensure we get the most out of our time with him. I have relied upon Geoff for health, wellness and nutritional guidance as well and always walk away from our conversations feeling even more determined to integrate his suggestions into my daily wellness routine. His overall wealth of fitness knowledge, ability to communicate and motivate, and willingness to show up for his clients day in and day out make him a genuine asset to anyone looking to become stronger, fitter, healthier and happier. I highly recommend Geoff.

I’ve had several personal trainers over the years, by far Geoff has been hands down the best trainer I have ever had. He personalized each session to help me achieve my goals. He also listened to what I wanted and helped me create a clean eating plan. I’ve been working with him for 4 months and I’ve seen significant changes with my body.
