Tina Claire – Trainer Competition Coach

I am updating me earlier review to say again that Tina is amazing! I am never disappointed and she has allowed me to achieve results I did not think possible.

I’ve been to several trainers over the past 4 years and TINA IS THE BEST! Compared to other trainers that I have had in the past, she is not an actress who trains clients on the side– she is a SERIOUS AND DEDICATED TRAINER.
She is detailed and thorough– so detailed that she gives a portfolio and receipts to all her clients (who does that!!!). Besides explaining every part of your workout, she also explains why you should or shouldn’t eat certain foods and backs it up with FACTS. I really don’t want to compare too much, but other trainers that I’ve been with never went into any detail about nutrition. The most they’ve done is hand me a list of what to eat but no reasoning why.
I have only been with her a month, but I already feel and see a difference. I am fitting into my old clothes, losing weight, and feeling more energized.
Tina is an expert with actual degrees in the field and has a true passion for fitness. I definitely recommend her.

I researched many different trainers prior to working with Tina. After meeting with Tina at her free consult, I knew she was the trainer I needed to work with. She listened carefully to what my goals were for my body and has since tailored a plan to meet those expectations. I couldn’t be happier about my decision to work with her for a plethora of reasons.
First, Tina is incredible. Tina is kind, honest, intelligent, fun, and has an incredible energy. Of course, she’s also in fantastic shape and beautiful. Working out with someone who walks the walk is motivating. She is a rare gem. While being incredibly fierce, she’s also non-​judgmental and provides a fantastic and safe space to work out in. She knows exactly how much to push me during our sessions. She’ll push me to the edge because she can believes I can work harder than I believe I can (at times), but she knows what my limits are and honors them.
Tina is full of knowledge and is available for any questions I have regarding diet, or training during our sessions. I’ve learned so much about how bodies are sculpted, and have a much higher appreciation for the human form. I’ve also developed a higher level of respect for how we fuel our bodies. While I’ve always researched nutrition, adding Tina’s diet plan and expertise has elevated my understanding to a new level.
Due to Tina’s encouragement and conditioning exercises I’m able to take on workouts which I never thought were possible for me. In addition to training with her, she’s created plans for me on days when I’m at the gym without her. Her influence is so strong that on those days I can hear her pushing me, and I work harder to succeed at my goals for that day.
Finally, the proof lies in my results. I’m seeing tone on my stomach where I never thought it would be. My legs and arms are toning up, and I’ve lost 7 pounds since April (when I started working with Tina). Additionally, I’ve grown much stronger and have dropped down mile times at the gym. Tina is a trainer that grows with her client. As I get stronger, Tina adjusts workouts to continue that growth.
I would absolutely recommend Tina to anyone looking to get stronger, see results, and elevate themselves to the next level.

Tina Claire is everything you look for in a trainer.
She is honest, educated and straight forward. You will definitely see result and reach your goals if you are serious about it and follow everything she tells you. Not only is she a great trainer, she is an amazing person.
I look forward to every training session with Tina. I am an athlete and work out regularly but every session with Tina leaves me sore and feeling amazing!

Tina is a great trainer! I wanted to find the best to train me for my first figure competition coming up and I couldn’t help but notice all of her great reviews! When you train with Tina you get the results you want! I am getting shredded and toned for my competition. She is very professional and always looking out for you and checking in. Definitely recommend!

Tina’s enthusiastic attitude is infectious, which helps power me through those tough workouts. She provides you with a list of foods to eat and foods to not eat (and the reasons why to avoid those foods)! She has a unique mix of patience (it takes me about 15 minutes to do 20 reps of something), unrelenting enthusiasm, and warm support.
I’m so excited to continue working out under her guidance and optimism — you need someone who will show you the end of the tunnel!

In one word, OUTSTANDING! Tina is a consummate professional. She is very genuine, and her approach is upbeat, but also realistic. She has such a positive attitude and great energy. Tina has such an awesome personality and is incredibly encouraging. She is funny, personable, and a great listener. She is always making suggestions as to how to improve one’s health & fitness in non-​threatening ways. She takes what she does very seriously, and gives very reasonable advice. My last personal trainer, whom I fired, used a one-​size fit all approach. When I would inquire about pull-​ups, Tabatas, or other exercise programs, my last trainer would either give me blank stare or could not give me a straight answer with these fitness concepts. Tina’s immense fitness and nutrition knowledge is so expansive, that it feels like she can field any array of questions pertaining to these subjects, to a degree that instills so much confidence in her as a trainer and the regiment she puts you on. She answers the WHY that gave me confidence in what I was doing.
In the first 3 weeks that I’ve worked with her, I have seen results! I went from 128 lbs to 122 lbs. My waistline went from 31 inches to 28 inches. I’m leaning down and toning up! She gave me back my confidence and more, which my ex-​trainer took away from me. I’m so grateful for her and being a huge part of my life! I am so happy to have her as my trainer/​coach for my up coming bikini competitions and I’m looking forward to working with Tina for my future competitions as well! Tina, YOU’RE THE BESTEST!!!

If you think you’re working out and getting in shape, just go to Tina and she will prove you wrong. I started going to her for only 1 month and never felt healthier and tighter. After every session I see results, which is pretty incredible. It used to be like pulling teeth for me going to the gym or even the thought of working out, now I actually look forward to it. I just love working out with her all around and could not say enough good things. I won’t lie that during our workouts I want to cry and give up but she is so great at pushing you to your own limit and making that hour fly by. SOME HOW! I still don’t get it. So if you want to get in the best shape of your life I suggest you fire your trainer… or get off your a*# and go to TINA!

Go. If you want to realize your goals, go. If you want to go beyond what you thought you were physically capable of, go. And, if you wanna do all this while having an awesome time, go.
Tina is committed, warm spirited, and fun. There is zero judgement. She wants to know all your goals and add in a bunch more you were probably too sheepish to vocalize. We all want a powerful, strong willed, insanely fit women to inspire us! She exists!
The gym Tina works at is great. Big dressing/​shower room, towels provided! Everyone’s friendly, no superficial b.s., just cool people working hard.

I recently decided to take part in a bikini competition. When I did some research on how to best prepare I found Tina’s page here on Unilocal.It’s been three weeks since I started training with her but already I am noticing a difference. My muscles feel tight (in a good way) and my core is feeling stronger.
I’m super motivated to get in the best shape of my life and willing to do the work so Tina is perfect to help me reach my goals. Her positive and happy disposition gets me pumped in the morning! She’s also very professional and offers a lot in her training package as far as meal plan suggestions, assistance with bikini competition prep, and of course kick ass sessions where she has been challenging me to push my limits.
I have a torn ACL that I never got replaced but I trust Tina will create the best workout plans for me because she has also experienced a knee injury. Overall, I just get the sense that she knows her stuff. I mean, look at her body! This girl is ripped and curvy in all the right places! We’ve also been taking pictures every other Friday so we can document my progress. I’m so excited for what’s to come based on the results I’m getting now! Thank you Tina for playing a role in making my fitness goals come to fruition! I had botched lipo which left my self confidence low so it was time to take matters into my hands! This means SO much to me!

If you’re looking for an incredible person trainer, look no further than TINA!
I have been meaning to get in to a fitness routine for forever, but always had excuses or would only go for 2 – 3 weeks then quit. I am so happy that I found Tina.
She really listens to your goals, strengths, and weaknesses and puts together a fitness and meal plan for you to follow along. She always has the best advice and answers any questions I might have… which when starting initially, were quite a lot!
I have been with her for 2.5 weeks and I feel amazing. I’ve lost weight and have definitely toned up. It’s so much fun to bust butt and work out with her every morning; when I am whimpering and sweating up a storm she is right there to push me one step further and it’s GREAT.
I can’t wait to see how I look by my event goal date (2 more weeks), but I know I’ll definitely keep up with her after as well! I can’t say enough great things. She is your girl!

I cannot express how glad I am to have found Tina!
I have worked with many personal trainers, primarily online, and I have never seen results so quickly. During our initial consultation, I was very upfront and honest in what my goals were (i.e. Looking like a bikini competitor) and what some of my challenges have been in the past with other trainers. She developed a plan that was very tailored to my needs and I couldn’t be more pleased! Did I mention I also have a pretty bad injury? That didn’t matter, she really knows the body and the exercises to push you no matter what your physical capabilities might me.
I’m not a beginner to working out, but I felt like it the minute I went through a Tina workout. Can’t wait to keep pushing myself further!

My favorite trainer (I’ve been with a lot)! She works my ass off but not to the point of killing Me. Made my butt awesome in less than a month. And what I like most is when you needed some advice, any time of the day, as long as she’s not busy she’ll respond. And you’ll be inspired to workout with her because she herself have an awesome body!

Review comes from the male perspective:
This is my second time preparing for the show, and I found Tina here on Unilocal.
She is absolutely professional. This is my 10^th week of contest prep, and I have not hit a plateau. She provided me lots and lots of information that are essential to contest prep.
If you’re just beginner, Tina could help you build the right foundation in fitness. If you’re an intermediate or advanced, Tina could help you reach the next level in terms of knowledge and physique!
Will update in few weeks after I complete my show!

Tina’s the real deal. After reading through Unilocal and other google sites looking for a trainer, I decided to contact her. She gives you a free consultation before starting to make sure you both vibe with each other and to talk about your goals. It’s only been two weeks with her, and I am already feeling great and seeing some results! She knows so much about nutrition as well, and will help you overhaul all angles of your life to achieve your goals. I have had some bad experiences with trainers in the past, and I know with Tina I will get to where I want to be.
She definitely kicks your ass, but the time goes by so quickly! She’s awesome! Can’t say enough good things about her, highly recommended!

I was in need for a figure competition coach and I went on Unilocal to search for one. Luckily I came across Coach Tina who had wonderful testimonials from her clients. I later on went on her page and read more about her specialities in competition coaching. I decided to reach out to her and she got back to me quick. We meet and she gave me hope that I too can do a competition. She immediately worked with me in giving me a meal plan and told me to keep working out the way that I’ve been doing. My down fall has always been my eating habits but once I got on her strict meal plan, in a week I immediately saw results. I’m 4 weeks in and I have lost approximately 20lbs!!! My body is shaping up to be a competitors body and my legs are leaning out. I see Coach Tina once a week but when I see her she kicks my butt! I’m used to heavy lifting but all her exercises are high reps and she makes me work against my body weight. We do full body workout from abs, jump squats, lunges, etc… I incorporate her exercises in my week workouts. Coach Tina is amazing! She’s a motivator and encourages you that anything is possible. If your looking for a Coach who will get you to meet your fitness goals, she’s the one for you. She’s strict but only because she knows you can do it. Take it from me…1 month in and I’ve lost 20lbs and I’m beyond excited for the future!

I have been training with Tina for my first fitness bikini comp for some time now and I couldn’t be more pleased. Mind you before hand I did my research on trainers who prep for shows. Most were online only and outrageously priced for never being able to train one on one in person. This was huge for me because I didn’t feel comfortable with skyping someone for something I would be working so hard to achieve. In addition to one on one training I loved how she mapped out everything from diet to weekly work out goals. It is so easy for me to understand and plan my daily schedule. Then there is additional things she has done like being a text/​call away for any advice or questions I may have. This is what was so surprising to me because she didn’t have to do that but it showed how much she cares about my goals and my dreams of competing. You won’t get that with an online coach or any trainer at that. I highly recommend her if your serious about your health and fitness. She is very knowledgeable and passionate in her practice and that is a huge value in a trainer.

Tina is next level amazing! I am 28-​years-​old and have literally never worked out in my life. I was a little nervous before we began because she trains top level competitors and is a figure model herself. I was pleasantly surprised to learn first hand how patient, understanding and motivating Tina is. With that said, she still pushes me to my max every single session we have together. She is incredibly knowledgable, an awesome motivator and just fun to be around. I never thought I would enjoy working out, and with Tina I do! Whether your training to compete in a national fitness completion, or have never worked out a day in your life (like me), I would highly and whole-​heartedly recommend Tina Claire!

I have to begin to say! How happy I am that I found Tina! She is supper sweet, very knowledgeable, motivates you and pushes you hard so you reach your goal. She helps you out with the diet and gives you really good fitness advice.
I have been training with her for 5 weeks and I can totally see more muscle definition and getting stronger!
So if your looking for a supper awesome female trainer in LA! Tina is your girl!

I found Tina through Unilocal a few months ago and reached out to her for help conditioning my legs. First off, she is dedicated to her work. She is very knowledgeable and knows how to push me in each and every workout.
She also listened to your needs. I am trying to make sure that my legs (especially my quads) do not get any bigger. She has introduced new workouts into my routine that have helped not only motivate me, buy have helped slowly shrink my legs. If you are looking to shake up your fitness routine, I highly recommend Tina.

Tina, Tina Tina!
I’ve had a few personal trainers over the years and Tina Claire is definitely one of the best. I came to Tina because I wanted to get back on the health and fitness grind; And she has absolutely got me back on it. I have been working with Tina for about 3 months (which is really not very long at all), but I see changes in my body and my diet. If you’re looking for that life changing trainer — Tina Claire may be the one for you. Below are a few reasons why I highly recommend training with her:
— She is extremely knowledgeable about nutrition (which is half the battle of getting and STAYING in shape) and provides a ‘clean foods list’, which is very informative. Tina will explain the nutritional value of foods so that you are aware of the impact they can have on your body.
— She challenges me with every workout, but I never feel overwhelmed. Sometimes I’ll get too comfortable with the exercises and Tina will recognize this and step it up. Which I appreciate (in hindsight).
— She keeps me motivated. Her style of training is very fitting for me. She’s not at all aggressive, but she knows how to keep you moving. She has great energy and the sweetest personality; she’s so fun to be around.
— She is very much invested in helping her clients achieve their goals. I feel like I have G. I Jane on my team.
— She is a walking advertisement for the perks of working out and eating healthy. Her body is phenomenal! Her skin glows and she looks amazing.
I know I’m in good hands with Tina Claire.
Work out with her!
(Thank you Tina! You’re fabulous!)

Asides from all the amazing things that other reviewers have posted about Tina… I would like to add the most important thing about her which is RESULTS. I’ve been training with Tina for six weeks and I have lost about 6lbs and 2% body fat. This included me not having a perfect diet and there were a week or two where I was only able to see her once. Oddly enough I am pretty bummed out when I have to cancel or reschedule an appointment with her. I look forward to every workout!
Every few weeks Tina weighs you, takes progress photos, and takes your body fat percentage.
The first week will have your knees trembling but just stick with and it will get much easier. She is not only a great trainer but has become a friend and sometimes a therapist as well. She really knows how to push you without being annoying and pushy. Just exhale through the workouts («yeah baby! let it burn» — Tina voice*), follow her eating program, and the results will come. I’m seeing muscles I’ve never seen before and I have the best endurance I’ve ever had in my life (able to run for a reasonable period of time now).
If you’re ready to invest in yourself please give her a call. You won’t be disappointed.

Tina Claire is a rock star. And her body is amazing. Definitely what you look for in a trainer. From the very first email and chat she took a genuine interest in my goals, health and well being. I never feel like im just another client. Her sessions are intense but fun. She is encouraging and pushes you beyond your limits and you will definitely feel the pain… but the good pain… as your body changes. She is also so accommodating and will always try and fit you in when it best suits you, even if she has to move her schedule around. I will recommend Tina to anyone looking for a trainer. Shes the best!!! The location is good for me and there is parking available so thats always a plus.

Tina is absolutely AMAZING! I’ve had good and bad trainers in the past but the first time I met Tina I know she’s the one I’ve been looking for. I mean, she gets it, she listens to you and she knows exactly what you need to do to reach your goal. She’s always cheering, energetic and kind which is rare since I’ve met personal trainers with huge attitude. Training with her is definitely hard but fun at the same time. I enjoyed every session and always look forward to the next session.
The first time I contacted her, she replied me within half an hour. Despite the fact that she was overbooked (she’s really popular), she tried to squeeze me in and even gave me a free consultation. I loved her kind personality from the very beginning. Besides being knowledgable and knowing exactly what she’s doing, I assure you her body shape is the dream of every girl. Come and try her out, you won’t regret it!

I have worked with 5 trainers from LA, (4 in the last 4 months)! By far I have gotten the best results working with Tina in just a short while. She obviously knows what she’s talking about when it comes to eating clean and doing the right exercises in order to get results as she is in great shape herself. I like that she is organized, motivating and talks to you like an encouraging friend rather than trying to make you feel inadequate. I have already referred her to my colleague who is equally happy with working with Tina. She is the only trainer that I would refer to anyone who is serious about getting the body that they want without wasting time and money.
I’ll come back and give 5 stars once I see all the results I set out for while working with Tina.

I was on the hunt for a trainer to get me ready for my first bikini competition so I reached out to Tina and several other trainers by email. I knew just from her response that she would be my trainer. Her enthusiasm, personality and excitement completely sold me, all the other responses were based around business and money but Tina really cared about me and what I was wanting to achieve.
I was even more excited after I meet her in person, she is a real sweetheart and truly knows her stuff and has an amazing body, all of this made me feel a less nervous to start and really excited to get in the gym with her. Im a vegan so make’s my transformation a little more challenging but not a worry Tina knew what to do and is an expert with nutrition.
My first session was bloody brutal… she pushed me to my limits, further than I thought I could go and I absolutely LOVED it!
I’m still in the early stages of my competition prep and Im loving every minute of it,
I couldn’t imagine doing this with anyone else! I’m so grateful I found Tina on Unilocal and I know you will be too!
Can’t wait to get back in the gym with you soon Tina xx

I have been training with Tina for a couple weeks now and it has been nothing but amazing! I am going to compete in my first figure competition this february and have gain so much knowledge on what to expect and prepare for from Tina. Her work outs will kick your ass and challenge you to your limits. but the next day you will feel like a million bucks!
My main downfall has been my eating habits and she went ahead and planned out an eating schedule for me to follow during the week. She will keep you motivated and the best part is you can tell she truly enjoys what she does!
