Roots
First, Al listens.
It starts with a free consultation. Where are you now? What hurts? What have you tried? One client who came to him after surgery says he “thoroughly assessed my baseline strength, met me exactly where I was at”.
Private personal training in Scarborough Growth starts with you.
One coach, one plan built around you. For people who have never had a trainer, are coming back from an injury, or doubt they would last three sessions.

“I told him on our ‘first date’ not to get his hopes up and that I doubted I would stay committed beyond the first three sessions. But here I am over a year later and still going every week.”
Andrea Leatherdale, who had never been to a personal trainer
Which one sounds like you?
I've never had a trainer.“I had never been to a personal trainer before starting with Al over a year ago.”
I'm coming back from an injury or surgery.“Al has helped me recover from injuries while maintaining a pace that's both effective and sustainable for long-term results.”
I want to stay strong as I get older.“He guides me through strength training, flexibility, balance and overall well being.”
I train already, but I've stalled.“I was working out for few years on and off without getting any significant results and then I met Al.”
I can't always make it in.“When my life has gotten hectic and it has become harder to make it to my regular session he has provided me with online coaching to help me stay on track.”

People stay.
A tree adds one ring a year. Tap a client to count theirs. These are the years Al's clients wrote down themselves.
10+ years
“I have worked with Alain Cummings for over 10 years and look forward to my workouts twice a week.”
Carol Roffey, on Google
Lengths as each client stated them in their Google review.
Every tree starts underground.
Trunk
Then you build, one habit at a time.
Al writes a program for your body and adapts it on the spot. Between sessions he stays close with check-ins, so you have support all week. “No two workouts are the same.”
Leaves
And it shows up everywhere.
Clients talk about better sleep, more energy and more to give their families. The goal is habits you can live with for good. “A year and a half later, I am stronger than I've ever been.”
Real people. Real iron.
Inside the studio at 64 Neilson Ave in Scarborough: turf, sleds, tires, plates and a coach who knows your name.
Meet Al.
“I think it's safe to say they might have trouble running after me.”
That's Al Cummings on keeping up with his two kids. He grew up playing competitive soccer and basketball, studied recreation and fitness, and left a corporate fitness company to open his own studio.

Nervous? Good questions.
I'm really out of shape. Is this for me?
Yes. The studio works with everyone from people who can barely get up off the couch to high performance athletes. As one client put it, Al “met me exactly where I was at”.
Will people be watching me?
You train with Al one-on-one, or one-on-two if you come with someone. Your session is about you and your goals.
I have an injury. Can I still train?
Tell Al about it at your consultation, and check with your doctor or physio first. Clients have come to him after shoulder injuries and surgery, and he builds the program around where you are today.
What happens at the free consultation?
You and Al talk through where you are, what bothers you and where you want to be. He explains how he would help you. Then you decide if it feels right.
How much does it cost?
It depends on how often you train and whether you train in person or online, so Al goes through the options with you at your free consultation.
Do you help with food too?
Yes, as part of your overall health. Clients credit Al with helping them plan meals and build better eating habits, and as a vegan himself he can help plant-based clients too.
Your first step is a conversation.
- A free consultation with Al, one-on-one
- Come as you are, at any fitness level
- A plan built around your body and your life
