I have been working with Chris for a few months now and I would recommend him to anyone I know without hesitation. He is professional, knowledgeable, dedicated, and fun! Best of all, I have seen the results I was looking for.

I have lower back issues, and Chris was able to compile a workout routine that helped strengthen my back and core while at the same time prevent my back from becoming strained and hurting more.

Chris distinguishes himself from other trainers with an attitude that is centered around helping you in an enjoyable and positive manner. I will continue to use Chris and look forward to further results!"

Daniel A.

I had a personal trainer through a gym membership and felt nothing but intimidation and reluctance to go exercise. I quit the gym and decided to find a personal trainer that would come to my home and work around my crazy schedule. Chris was exactly the right choice for my lifestyle and needs. He understands how difficult it is to be healthy in the corporate world, and he provides endless encouragement on good days and especially bad days. He challenges me every session (we meet three times a week and I don't intend to stop anytime soon.) His price is such a great value for the type of personalized program he has created based on my body type and goals. You WILL see results if you follow his instruction. He is enthusiastic and passionate about helping me and others to reach our fitness goals. I highly recommend him to everyone that feels like getting healthy and fit is impossible. It is NOT impossible, and Chris can help you get there. "

Candace M.

Chris is an excellent personal trainer who worked hard to not only get results but also to provide the best value for his service and strive to meet my budget. He was always willing to reschedule appointments within his availability and really tried to find availability for my busy schedule."

 Tamice H.

Chris is dedicated to his clients and very knowledgeable in weight training, toning and sculpting. He listens to what you want to work on where your weaknesses are and where your strengths are and he builds you a program based on that. Chris is dependable and also flexible with your schedule, he will work with you anyway he can. He is very professional! I always look forward to working out, he has made me feel so much better about myself and the energy I have now has increased tremendously!

I would highly recommend Chris as a personal trainer.

  Lynn B.

I have been working out with Chris for about 6 months & I have seen so much progress in my body since him training me. He is such a good trainer he motivates you, & he focuses on exactly what you want to work on. He knows exactly how to kick my butt in workouts but also knows how to keep me looking fit! He is just an all around awesome trainer & would never be this far into getting fit if it weren't his motivation & support!!

Sunshine N.

Chris is an excellent trainer. He is a people person, always early and flexible. My husband has lost approximately 9 pounds after only 7 weeks!

Patricia C. and Reggie C. 

Hiring Chris to be my trainer has been a great decision. I've only been working out with him for just over a month, but I can already see myself getting stronger and more fit. I was really out of shape and had some medical issues. Chris has been great at modifying exercises for me so I can do the workout, but still keep it challenging. He changes the workout each time so you don't get bored, but there is still some repetition of exercises so you can see your progress. Very friendly guy and a great workout. Couldn't be happier!

 Michelle R. 

Very Professional and highly skilled!

Stacey C.

Chris was very nice and he is committed to his clients

Awesome Experience!

"From the initial telephone coversation, I knew that I had found the right trainer for me. Chris is so relatable and has such an awesome and inspiring story to share. His story, that chronicles his own fitness journey, really gave me the drive and motivation to get started. A very personable approach and a keen awareness to details really helped Chris design a program exclusively for me. I would recommend him to anyone who expects a high level of professionalism from a trainer and the knowledge to help you succeed."

Brenda K.

Workout is Great!! Mr. McKenzie is a joy to work with!! I like his push mentallity!!!"

Anita J.

Chris, thank you soooo much. The encouragement you gave me as I recovered from my knee surgery was invaluable. Sharing the story of your journey while we worked out helped me to believe i could do it. Also, I have no idea how you managed to give me just enough exercise so that I wasn't ever really sore but still improved every week. I still think about the day I dragged myself down the hall to the gym and when I walked in, I must have looked so exhausted, you gave me a high five for showing up and said everything else I did that day way a bonus. I still give myself a mental high five sometimes and consider everything else a bonus on the days I don't feel like working out but show up anyway. Again, thank you.

Stacey S.

I would recommend him to anyone!!

"Though I only worked with Chris for a short period of time I would recommend him to anyone. He is very professional and caring all at the same time. And he is very knowledgeable as to how to help people accomplish their fitness goals. And I will look forward to working with him again in the future when I am more able to do so."

Linda S.

I only had one training with Chris and he was professional and on time!

Marilyn J.

Genuine coaching and encouragement

"I just started with Chris after finding his profile and reviews on Thumbtack. Just had my 2nd session with him this morning. He is completely genuine and has the patience and understanding I need to begin my fitness journey after 3 years away from activity. I truly enjoy Chris's company and his training style is a great mix of coaching and encouragement. Knowing I will see him at our next session will keep me accountable to make good choices. Thank you, Chris! And thank you to his previous clients who've written reviews here because I really considered them when making my choice with Chris!"

Sarah B.

Krishnan S.

Atlanta, GA 

Virtual Client 

Before the COVID period I would meet Chris early mornings two days a week at my clubhouse fitness center. That worked very well. However since COVID, I set up my basement with a few essential pieces of equipment and a few repurposed items that help me in my workout routine. Now I go downstairs on those mornings, Chris promptly calls through Facebook Live.

We then have an efficient workout without leaving my home. Chris Taylor's the workouts to your needs as well as what your body might be telling you.

All and all, I need a trainer on my side for accountability and Chris certainly makes me accountable.

I give him a big 5 stars.....



Mark S.

So, it's only been my second session, but I can already tell I will be sticking with our sessions for a long time! I felt really comfortable with Chris when we spoke on the phone before booking our sessions (which is what ultimately made my decision - if I'm comfortable with someone, that helps so much). Our first session came and I knew I made the right choice! It was comfortable, yet still challenging enough to keep you engaged. He checked in to see if I ate breakfast (which I really appreciate) and stays in touch between sessions. Like I said, only my second session, but I already know there will be SO many more! Thank you, Chris! :)
