Kor Strength Personal Fitness

Great motivator, great personal trainer, very knowlegable. I am working out with Zach for about 4 years now and highly recommend him. He whips me in shape when I train for a competition and keeps me fit all year long.

I have been working out with Zach for the last 6 months and am in the best shape I’ve been in in a long time and on top of that have definitely lost weight. Zach makes working out fun, he’s a great motivator, and invested in his clients success and health!

I’ve trained with Zach for the last seven months. This has been my first time working with a trainer, and I’ve continued to see him because every part of the experience has exceeded my expectations. I can’t say enough good things about him or recommend him any more highly.
Zach offers comprehensive advice on every aspect of fitness and nutrition, and is very careful to emphasize both components. Zach is very knowledgeable about diet, supplementation, and workout regimens, and always provides advice in a friendly and motivational way that makes you want to do the things he recommends. The workouts are intense and high energy, and Zach keep them fun while always pushing you to complete those few extra reps that you didn’t think you’d be able to do. He is also always accessible by text/​email, etc. to answer questions.
Unlike many other trainers, Zach also does not have a one-​size-​fits-​all program. He regularly asks me about my fitness goals and helps select a routine designed to accomplish those goals. He is also very responsive to feedback and is willing to incorporate your suggestions.
Finally, the results have been incredible! I was not in terrible shape when I started working out with Zach, but now am in the best shape of my life and Zach’s motivation and encouragement has me wanting even more. I strongly recommend Zach for people of all fitness levels.

I don’t know what the deal with that guy is. As another person mentioned, I believe he rents space from a gym, Core fitness. I didn’t even purchase through an online deal, so there was no deal to begin with. I purchased 10 sessions after our first workout which I thought was good. But the second session never occured. He simply vanished in thin air. The phone number he gave me was no longer valid a few days later. Too bad Unilocal doesn’t allow 0 star!
Be very careful handing him cash before you actually get your workouts. As for me, I contacted a collection agency, but I very well know, this money is gone.

I have had the same experience– scheduled sessions with him– he’d either cancel at the last minute or no-​show. Extremely unprofessional. I am still waiting for my money back.
He’s a good trainer, but just doesn’t show up for the job.
I would hesitate to receommend this trainer.

I was referred by a friend and have trained with Zachary Koran since February, 2009. Within 1 and a half years, I’d lost 55 pounds! Now, I know that is not a typical «Biggest Loser» time frame, but I was in no rush; my main goal was that the changes I made would last. I’ve been at a stable weight for over a year now, able to pick clothes out of my closet and KNOW that they fit, and that is success to me! Granted, I could have lost the weight more quickly had I been the obedient type, but that’s not my style. Zach is a truly insightful trainer who knew when to push hard and test my limits vs when to be supportive and encouraging.
I was treated as a valued individual, and each workout was tailor made for me. He knew what a struggle I had in store, and in the beginning, was more convinced than I was that I’d succeed! As a person who’d been overweight for a decade, the last thing I needed was to be beat up mentally; I had already been doing that on my own. He held me accountable, while still giving me permission to be human. In the age of Groupon-​like deals, I tried other trainers, but found their approaches to be more one-​size-​fits-​all, and not a good fit for me. I’ve referred my own friends who agree that Zach’s really good at what he does. Don’t let that pretty face & charming smile fool you — you’ll work harder than you ever dreamed possible, but the results speak for themselves! If you’re willing to sweat like a man (even if you’re a girl like me!), and want to change your body & maybe your life, you’re in good hands!

P. S. Since training with Zach, I’ve taken on and completed new sporting challenges I wouldn’t have even considered in my 20’s. Ah, peer pressure… ;)

My friend and I purchased a deal from Dealfind for unlimited classes for one month. We decided to start last night after receiving an email from the instructor about the schedule with times and a new location. We arrived at 645 for a 7 pm class. There was another guy there to take the class. The instructor never showed up so I emailed him and never responded. Do not join this bootcamp. What a waste of money and time. Totally unprofessional if you ask me. I really wish I read a Unilocaler’s review before purchasing this deal.

I have had a similar situation as the ones described. I thought it was a great deal from dealfind, $ 19 for 30 classes — I showed up to a class in the evening at Core Fitness and the people there seemed confused about his classes in general. I did get a call from him saying that class was canceled that day, but obviously I got that call a little too late. I signed up for emails and never heard from him regarding actual classes, just that they will be «starting up again soon».
I saw that there was another deal on dealfind recently and figured that he had actually started up again, but still the same thing. I would tell anyone not to buy this deal, and if it has already been bought to request your money back.

Same situation as Alex. Zach never showed up to classes. He did go to the first one or two, but then never showed up for the others. This was extremely disappointing considering the classes were around 6 AM. Everyone was pretty pissed — since he promised he would make the rest of the classes. I would recommend to anyone to NOT buy into this deal.

Zak is a good guy and I’m sure he’ll whip people into shape, but the whole thing is kind of a sham. He rents space from a studio called Core Fitness.
I purchased a deal from living social and went to the first few classes, was really jazzed. The he just stopped showing up. Didn’t call or write, didn’t answer his phone. I could have refunded my measly $ 20 from Living Social, but preferred to actually go to the classes then get the refund. I got a call from him a couple weeks later saying he’s sorry and to show up the next day. He apologized to the class in person and I went a couple more times to boot camp… he stopped showing again.
I would have just let it slide, but a friend I met in the class found that he put out another deal on another deal site.
Putting this out as a warning!
