He has worked for Bally Total Fitness, LA Fitness, and Just Fitness. With over 15 collective company awards to his name, and multiple large-scale program designs to his name, Donny has helped thousands of members reach their desired fitness level.
He has knowledge of big corporate gyms, 1-on-1 personal training, group classes, and every other system. With his vast experience, he created the Peak Zone Fitness program to fill what he saw as a gap in the industry: 1-on-1 personal training in a group setting that is truly individualized to specific client needs.
It’s a program in which clients are using science to eliminate guessing as well as giving every client a vast knowledge about fitness and nutrition. He created a program that not only gives clients the most knowledge possible but gives the trainers a greater collective wealth of knowledge than any single certification could. Peak Zone Fitness Trainers have to complete a 300-page book and 90-day training course before they begin running the program.
This is why Peak Zone Fitness has been featured in over 200 different media outlets including FOX, THE CW, The Advocate, and D-Magazine and why Peak Zone Fitness also has an unapparelled 600 PERFECT REVIEWS.
This program is unique because there’s never been anything like it and it is the result of the most comprehensive experience possible.
