Andrew Bloch Personal Training

What I appreciate most about Andrew is that he knows how to adjust the training régime to work around issues such as a bad knee, recovery from rotator cuff surgery, and general aches and pains of aging. He pushes me beyond what I think I can do, but always with good humor and care. Although I may complain a lot during the workout, I always feel better afterwards. Plus, he’s fun and funny, and that makes the time go quickly. I also appreciate his willingness to work around my schedule when necessary. I recommend him wholeheartedly.

Andrew is the best! Let’s put it this way: I used to dread my sessions w/​a former trainer. Now I actually look forward to Andrew’s workouts b/​c he’s totally fun and puts me through the ringer in a way I don’t even realize b/​c I’m having a blast w/​his anecdotes and humor. He’s also super smart and has taught me things about nutrition and clean eating that have really made a difference in my life :^)

I have a gym membership and I use it fairly regularly. I also walk my dogs and feel like I am keeping up with that required 30 minutes of daily activity I’m told I should do if I don’t want to die of a heart attack sometime soon. I won’t say I’m athletic but I’m not «unfit» either. Recently I decided I wanted to step it up a notch, stop relying on cardio equipment and vary my routine. This is where Andrew comes in. Our first meeting went beyond well, first off he showed up on time. He was knowledgeable and provided me with a customized one on one workout and his undivided attention. He pushed me without being pushy. He didn’t seem rushed and he’s also just really likeable. Needless to say I got my butt kicked, which suggests to me that our meeting was well worth my time and money. Obviously based on the sore muscles I have today I can use his help stepping it up at the gym. I learned a lot of moves that I can easily incorporate into my routine. I’ve already scheduled more sessions, and if you are reading this on Unilocal,so should you.

I can’t say enough wonderful compliments to Mr. Block and his methods. First of all, I have a gym membership, a lifetime membership to one of the big national chains. I never go. I also have a state of the art brand new gym in my building. I never go.
A modeling opportunity landed in my lap last minute– and my new york pounds needed to be shed sooner than later. I picked up my phone, dialed Mr. Bloch, left my name, and number. He returned my call within 2 hours, and set up an appt for the next day.
Mr. Bloch is extremely professional, and listens well to your needs. Our first workout was outside in Bethesda at a park with a jump rope (my nemesis!) a weight, and a bench. difficult. Mr. Bloch was persistent, but not unkind. I can’t stand a trainer that yells at you. This was so not the case.
Second day workout, met at whole foods, went thoroughly over diet, and then went to my gym where I met again with that evil jump rope who kicks my butt! We focused primarily on my upper body, and I worked harder than I could have imagined. Mr. Bloch was sensitive to my needs considering how sore I was from the work out the day before, and we paid attention to my heart rate (i have an arrhythmia) and he forced me to keep well hydrated.
I’m so excited to continue working out with Mr. Bloch, and I think that before this summer is over I will have a ridiculous body that my 19 year old self would be envious of ;)
Seriously. This guy rocks.

Very personal and very training.

I used to be fat… now look at me I’m skinny! All joking aside Andrew Bloch is one of the most knowledgeable and patient trainers that I have ever worked with. I only wished he could be cloned because he is in such high demand. Thanks again for everything!

My wife and I have been going to Andrew for just a few months now and we definitely see results. He’s a a great trainer who realizes that sometimes there are places you’d rather be but he sticks to it and gets you going.
He’s adaptable, responds to what you say you want to work on. He’s very easy going & flexible in terms of scheduling and very reasonably priced. On top of that, he’s a good guy. I’d definitely recommend him.
