James D. Robinson III

"Having weight trained and exercised seriously for about 55 years, with many professional trainers and work out partners, I have an extensive comparative background. With that perspective I can say with full confidence that John is among the best of the best. He not only is serious about his own conditioning but equally or more so about that of his clients. He has all the experience of a top body builder and fitness expert as well as a deep understanding of the human body and how it best responds to conditioning. He inspires you to be committed, rigorous and challenged. I thoroughly enjoy and appreciate my sessions with him. He is a friend, a great guy and a true professional."

Barry F. Schwartz

"At 57 I am stronger and more fit than at 27. Training with John Sitaras these last 5 years is the reason. When I met John and he introduced me to his method I was in reasonably good shape. When asked about my training goals I told him I wanted to stay strong without bulking up and didn't want to get injured. The Sitaras method has allowed me to satisfy those ambitions and to buckle the belt I wore at college graduation around my pants. Others who train with John have enjoyed the same results." Thanks John"

"Your dedication is inducing the very best in people has been life changing as I witnessed the absolute transformation of my dear friend.  If it wasn't for him bringing to my attention the article about your club in Men's Vogue, I'd still be at home, stuck in the same monotonous routine and avoiding key muscle groups that are integral to our physical vitality.  What you have done is a testament to your knowledge of the human body and health.  You have cultivated the best physical program available and refined your techniques to deliver optimal results, all while retaining some of the best trainers in the profession."
