about me

I turn everyday people into the strongest, healthiest version of themselves — with expert 1-on-1 coaching that meets you exactly where you are, in your own home or online.

My Goal is to make real training so personal and so simple that getting in shape finally sticks.

20 years helping people get genuinely stronger.

David Edwards is an ISSA Master Trainer, Corrective Exercise Specialist, and Sports Nutrition Specialist with more than 20 years of experience — training everyone from young athletes to corporate executives, including the late David Rockefeller.

He believes fitness isn’t just about the number on the scale. It’s about building a body that’s strong, capable, and built to last. For people on GLP-1 medications, that means one thing above all: protecting the muscle that protects your metabolism, your joints, and your results.

Featured in Men’s Journal, David brings the same care to every client — whether you’re starting your weight-loss journey for the first time or rebuilding after years of yo-yo dieting.

What I DO

Whether you want a trainer at your door, a plan on your phone, or both — you get the same 20 years of experience and a program built just for you.

In-Home Personal Training

  • David comes to you. Hands-on 1-on-1 sessions in your home, garage, or yard — using whatever space and equipment you have. The most personal way to train, anywhere in NJ.

1-on-1 Online Coaching

  • Train on your own schedule with a fully custom workout and nutrition plan, video check-ins, and direct access to David. Perfect for self-starters who still want expert guidance.

Nutrition Coaching

  • Simple, sustainable eating built around your real life — no crash diets, no impossible meal plans.

GLP-1 & Weight-Loss Coaching

  • Lose fat and keep your muscle on or off medication, with training and nutrition designed for it.

Your Free Assessment Session

Your Free Assessment Session

Let’s talk about where you are, what you’re worried about, and exactly how to lose fat while protecting your muscle. No pressure, no obligation.

Everything you’re wondering, answered.

Yes. For in-home and hybrid plans, David travels to you anywhere in his New Jersey service area and trains you in your own space — home, garage, yard, or building gym. You don’t need a fancy setup; he works with what you have.

No. David builds your program around the space and equipment you already have, even if that’s nothing but your bodyweight. If you want to add a few key pieces, he’ll recommend exactly what’s worth it.

David serves clients across northern and central New Jersey, including Bergen, saddle river and upper saddle river area. Not sure if you’re covered? Book a free consultation and ask — online coaching is available statewide and beyond.

It’s perfect. As a Corrective Exercise Specialist, David starts where you are and builds safely from there. No judgment, no intimidation — just clear, supportive coaching.

Research shows that without strength training and enough protein, 25–40% of the weight you lose on a GLP-1 can come from muscle instead of fat. That’s why a proper training and nutrition plan isn’t optional — it’s the difference between looking healthy and looking depleted.

No — and that’s important. David is a certified fitness and nutrition coach, not a doctor or pharmacist. He doesn’t prescribe or advise on medication. His coaching is designed to work alongside your prescribing physician’s care. Always make medical decisions with your doctor.

Yes. Low and up-and-down energy is one of the most common things people feel on these medications, and the program is built around it. David designs flexible, low-fatigue workouts so you keep making progress without burning out.

Coaching is tailored to your goals, so the right plan depends on the support you need. We’ll go over the options together during your free assessment session — with zero pressure to commit.
