There's a Reason TSquared Training Clients Stay for Years
Before the pandemic, Troy’s average client stayed with him4 to 8 years. Not months. Years. That does not happen by accident.
Before personal training, Troy worked as an electrician.He spent years studying leverage, load, and how small adjustments changeeverything. Turns out that thinking applies just as well to a human body as itdoes to a circuit. When something is not working, he finds the why and fixesit.
A close friend who was a powerlifting champion taught himreal technique. Not ego lifting. Real mechanics. Real structure. Being tall putTroy at a disadvantage in certain lifts, so instead of forcing through it, hestarted studying angles, joint loading, and positioning. That obsession withprecision became the foundation of everything he does today.
He went on to complete a 2.5-year clinical apprenticeshipwith Infofit, working alongside Dr. Brian Martin at Ener-Changes. Anatomy,physiology, real movement assessment. Not textbook training. Clinical,medically supervised, hands-on work with real-world conditions.
Then he discovered the Gravity Training System whileworking with Executive Lifestyles. It let him apply everything he understoodabout biomechanics and leverage in a system that was joint-friendly, scalable,and intelligent. Clinical foundation met functional performance.
That is what keeps people coming back. Not hype. Notsix-week transformations. Results built on trust and 20 years of understandinghow bodies actually work.

The Gravity Training System
You will not find this anywhere else in Vancouver.
The Gravity Training System is a suspension-based training method built around how your body actually moves. It uses your own bodyweight and gravity as resistance, which means it is joint-friendly, fully adjustable, and works whether you are rehabbing an injury or pushing for performance.
Troy discovered this system while working with Executive Lifestyles. It let him apply everything he understood about biomechanics and leverage in a format that was intelligent, not flashy. Clinical foundation met functional performance. It gets results that traditional weight training cannot always deliver, especially for people dealing with joint issues, past injuries, or bodies that have been through a lot.
If you have tried other approaches and something always seemed to go wrong, this might be why.
Real Clients, Real Results
These are not highlight reel transformations. They are people who came in with real limitations, real frustrations, and real goals and kept showing up. Hear what they have to say.
The 5-Session Guarantee
Most trainers ask you to take a leap of faith. I don’t.
Sign up for 5 sessions and use them within 3 weeks. Session one, I record your baseline: strength, mobility, energy. We also talk about what is happening outside the gym. Sleep, nutrition, the basics.
After your 5 sessions, we compare. No real improvement in your strength, alertness, or agility? You get 2 more sessions free. No awkward conversations. No fine print. Just results, or I keep working until you get them.
That is how confident I am in what we do here.
Your First Session is Free!

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a personal trainer cost in Vancouver?
Most personal trainers in Vancouver charge between $80 and $140 per session for one-on-one training, depending on their experience and location. At TSquared, pricing reflects 20+ years of coaching experience and access to the Gravity Training System, equipment you will not find at any other studio in the city. Small group training is available at a lower per-session rate while still delivering the same quality of coaching. Your first session is always free, so you can experience it before spending a dollar.
How often should I train with a personal trainer?
Two to three times a week is what works for most people. Enough to build real momentum without burning out. If once a week is all your schedule allows, that can still work if you are staying active in between. Troy will give you an honest answer based on your goals and your life, not what fills his schedule.
What is the Gravity Training System?
The Gravity Training System uses your own bodyweight on an adjustable incline to build strength through controlled, multi-plane movements. Unlike traditional weight training, the resistance is smooth and fully adjustable, which means it delivers real strength gains without the joint stress that comes with free weights and machines. TSquared is the only personal training studio in Vancouver using it as the primary training method. It is especially effective for anyone who wants to build genuine functional strength without beating up their body in the process.
Is a personal trainer worth it?
If you have been training on your own and not getting anywhere, the honest answer is yes. Most people are not failing because of effort. They are failing because the program is not right for their body. A good trainer fixes that. And with TSquared’s 5-Session Guarantee, you are not taking a financial risk to find out.
How quickly will I see results from personal training?
Most TSquared clients notice something within the first few weeks. Energy first, then posture, then strength. Measurable gains typically show up within four to six weeks of consistent training. The timeline depends on where you are starting from, but nothing is wasted. Every session is building something.
Do I need to be in shape before starting at TSquared?
No. Most clients start somewhere between "have not exercised in years" and "been going to the gym but not really getting anywhere." Troy will meet you exactly where you are and build from there. The first session is a conversation and a movement assessment. There is no test to pass and nothing to prove.
