Meet your coach

Hi, I'm Coach Abe!

A former Electrical Engineer turned Fitness Coach. I pivoted from my engineering career to pursue my passion for health & fitness. I am super grateful to have empowered 200+ clients transform both physically and mentally.

I had a past where I felt extremely insecure in my own body. I felt weak, unseen and lacked confidence. That changed when I decided to put myself first. I started working out and nourishing my body. In just a matter of months my true personality began to come out and I started to feel more confident in my own skin.

Do you lack confidence? Are you unhappy with how your clothes fit? Do you hate feeling exhausted all the time? Are you tired of being inconsistent and want to put your well-being first?

If you answered yes, I can help. I help busy but committed individuals just like yourself work smarter not harder.

My approach allows you to make small daily changes to your lifestyle that compound over time and result in massive weight loss and transformation.

It was a pleasure to be coached and mentored by Abe. A year and a half later I’ve still maintained my weight loss. If you are serious about being a healthy version of yourself look no further. Your exercises and diet plans will not only be created specifically for you but they are also very realistic. Thank you for the life lessons Abe

30lbs so far

Coach Abe provides the structure, accountability, and encouragement I needed to make lasting changes. Instead of relying on restrictive diets I couldn't maintain, I've built healthier habits, improved my nutrition, made exercise part of my routine, and learned to be patient. This has become a sustainable lifestyle, and I'm seeing real progress because of it.

I first got to know about Coach Abe through Instagram. I was very impressed with some of the clients progress photos and their reviews about his work. It was soon enough Coach Abe reached out to me and explained the whole training program. For me this was my first time working with a personal trainer. I am grateful to him for reaching out and convincing me to get on this fitness journey with him. I was at a point in my life where I was stuck with my unhealthy habits and covid made it worse. I was gaining weight each month and hardly found any motivation to do any workouts. Even when I went to gym I would just walk on the treadmill for couple minutes and call it a day, I was not familiar and lacked knowledge with workouts and gym equipment. I felt insecure being out in large gatherings or do anything social other than with my close friends. I did want to change for the better. Not just to lose weight but change my whole lifestyle to being more healthy and active. Coach Abe did a video call and went over the whole program with me. The fact that he was super flexible with his workouts to match with my lifestyle is what interested me to sign up. Coach Abe curated a workout according to my needs with the right balance to get enough rest and not be tired at work. In just a few months, I started to notice difference physically. I felt a lot better emotionally as well. I was looking forward to working out on my time off and have a more active day such as going for walks, meeting 10k steps daily compared to just being at home. Right now I am grateful to be in the position I am in. I am more social and doing things way out of my comfort zone. My food habits has changed as well. Coach Abe always changed my workouts according to my options (restricted gym/ home workouts etc) which was always helpful. I have learned a lot regarding how to maximize the most out of a workout with the given equipments at a gym. I enjoyed being a part of the academy and I whole heartedly recommend Coach Abe to anyone looking to change their quality of life for the better. He was the push I needed to develop and practice a healthy and active lifestyle.

Lost 30 lb in 6 months

Abe was more of a friend than he is a fitness coach. He taught me how important it is to love my body, by cooking a nice meal, going for walks in the sunset beach, lifting weights to feel that pump, or getting yourself out of toxic social environments. During the latter stage of our coaching process he also enlightened me on how to love myself by getting in touch with my sincerest feelings and saying self-affirmative words to myself so I can bring joy to people around me. I highly recommend his academy no matter where you are in your journey of adulting.

Gained confidence, energy, and strength, and got his social life back.

Rehmat· Client

Stronger, leaner, more toned

Abe is a great and knowledgeable coach. I met him through my academic institution. With the COVID-19 lockdown and working entirely remotely, I had lagged a lot with fitness and I needed to get back on track. So, I approached him on IG and indicated my interest to join the academy. Abe was absolutely amazing. He came up with strategies that could help me get active all through the day, increased my water intake daily, and made me a delicious and nutritious meal plan. Prior to meeting Abe, I did not like vegetables, but Abe made me eat them! :) which was good!:) for my body!. As weeks went by I could see the results physically and mentally. My strength and endurance had increased and I was looking very toned! I 100% recommend GetfitWithAbe Academy. If you see this review, this is the sign you have been waiting for to start your fitness journey with Abe :)

Improved strength and endurance and became more toned.
