Hi, my name is Maxim.
I am a personal trainer living in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.
I provide personal training services in Halifax, Dartmouth, and Cole Harbour.
​
I am a former Russian gymnast with a sport science degree and various certificates including certification by Canadian Fitness Professionals, TRX, Human Kinetics and others.
I have more than 15 years of personal training experience around the world and over 30 years of experience in various sports such as gymnastics, crossfit, powerlifting, bodybuilding, and boxing.
​
My training method based on gymnastics physical preparation. It is a combination of calisthenics workout, weight lifting, cardio-vascular exercises, and gymnastics.
It is designed to be highly personalized to address your unique needs and goals.
CALISTHENICS WORKOUTS
My gymnastics background will give you a unique and effective experience to learn calisthenics training.
We will learn how to do handstands, muscle-ups, planches and more.
I will design a calisthenics workout program specifically for you based on your abilities and skills, so that you no longer waste time or risk injuries.
IMPROVE FLEXIBILITY AND MOBILITY
I will teach you the streching techniques that actually work. We will improve your flexibility and mobility safely, effectively, and time-efficiently.
No more boring and ineffective stretches which produce no results and take years of your time.
We will learn how to open the shoulders and hips, safely perform lower back stretches, hamstring stretches and others.
IMPROVE POSTURE, LOWER BACK, HIPS AND SHOULDERS
One of the most important aspects of the gymnastics training is the efficient mechanics of the body movements.
I will teach you the correct ways to move. From simple walking to complex movements so that you could move and bend freely.
You will learn exercises for lower back pain, sciatica pain, elbow tendonitis (aka tennis elbows), and impinged shoulders.
GYMNASTICS TRAINING FOR ADULTS
Whether you had some experience with gymnastics training as a kid or no experience but have always wanted to try it - I am happy to gradually walk you into this exciting, challenging but rewarding way to exercise.
I will show you unique exercises we use in gymnastics to get stronger, such as specialized exercises for core, back, shoulders, hips, and the rest of the body.
DISCOVER A UNIQUE AND EXCITING WAY TO EXERCISE
I have designed a unique fitness training approach for Adults of any age and level based on gymnastics physical preparation.
Every session is different and packed with simple to complex gymnastics drills.
You will learn different ways of doing ab workouts, shoulders and back exercises, coordination and balance drills, stamina training, and learn some of the gymnastics skills.
"More recently I have been dealing with a frozen shoulder and moderate lower left back pain most likely from weight training, which is what prompted me to seek out Max. In the 7 weeks we’ve been working together I can now do things with my shoulder I haven’t been able to do in 5 months and my back also feels 80% better! I have even stopped seeing my physio!"
- Angelica Yang
"Maxim continued his training on-line during the pandemic. I am amazed how he still has a full grip of my workouts at the comfort of my own safe home. Maxim has become even more precise getting my body aligned and strong . He misses nothing and watches you like a "hawk " with precise instructions how to perform his workouts. Highly recommend Maxim!" - Gabriele Brencher
"Maxim is very passionate about gymnastics and fitness. His definition of fitness is not only related to moves and skills during workouts. His understanding of fitness affects your daily life - how you stand, sit, move, work. He aims for a longevity (fitness) and gives good advice that can be easily integrated into anyone’s daily life." - Gabriele Bickel
