You’re not lazy. Your body just stopped cooperating.
Your back has opinions about your desk chair. Your shoulder clicks when you reach for the top shelf. You’ve started a dozen programs and quietly ended eleven of them.
That’s exactly who we train. Posture and mobility first, then strength that lasts. Real coaches who know your name, your history and your schedule.
Five minutes. No sales pitch. We’re choosing each other.
The receipts.
Ratings and awards as listed on turnfit.ca. Credentials aren’t a promise of results. Everybody’s different.
If any of these made you nod, you’re in the right place.
- You’re a busy professional who wants a plan that fits a packed calendar, not a second job.
- You’re finished with physio and not sure how to get strong again without undoing the work.
- You’re 25, 55 or 75 and want to keep moving well for the next few decades.
- Posture, past injuries or nagging aches mean generic workouts make things worse.
- You’ve never trained before and would like someone kind to show you the ropes.
- You know what to do. You just need someone who notices when you don’t.
Posture and mobility. The unglamorous stuff that changes everything.
We work hand-in-hand with physios, RMTs, chiropractors and osteopaths, so you’re not bouncing between disconnected professionals. We stay in our lane: we’re trainers, and we work alongside your practitioners, never instead of them.
The result most clients describe first isn’t a number on a scale. It’s getting out of the car without the “oof”.
Free. No packages, no contracts, no pressure.
Real humans. Led by David.
TurnFit was founded by David Turnbull, a BCRPA-certified personal trainer with 15+ years of coaching in Vancouver and the creator of the TurnFit Method. Your trainer is a real person who learns your goals, your history and your schedule, and adjusts as you go.
Trainers limit how many clients they see per day, so the person coaching you at 6 pm has as much energy as the one at 7 am.
Everything you need. Nothing you don’t.
- A proper first look. Your fitness level, injuries, health concerns and real availability.
- A plan built around you, for the days you train with us and the days you train alone.
- Coached sessions in Kitsilano, downtown, or online.
- Movement quality first. Posture and mobility work built into every program.
- Nutrition habits you can keep for life. Balance and moderation, not a punishment.
- Homework and check-ins on non-live days, so you stay on track.
- Recovery built in, with massage therapy available.
- A team voted Top Choice eight years running.
Real people, a real plan, and five minutes to find out.

What our clients say.
“I worked with David for about a year now and I absolutely love it. He’s super friendly, really easygoing, and I love how he customizes a lot of my workouts for me. I have a lot of upper body issues due to a car accident and he tailors the workouts to understand where the pain is and makes sure he’s not aggravating any of it.”
Sarah Stacey, Registered Holistic Nutritionist
“The exercises were doable and I could fit them into my day with my baby at home. If you’re looking for a personal trainer, whether you’ve had one before or never, I cannot recommend TurnFit enough.”
Isabel, online coaching client

Let’s talk about it.
“I’m dealing with an old injury. Is this safe for me?”
We train around injuries every week. We work hand-in-hand with physios, RMTs, chiropractors and osteopaths, alongside them, never instead of them. If something needs a clinician first, we’ll tell you. You start where you are, and build from there.
“Am I too old (or too young, or too out of shape) to start?”
No. We coach adults from 19 to 75, from total beginners to people who’ve lifted for years. Your plan starts with your body, not someone else’s.
“I’ve hired trainers before and it didn’t stick.”
That’s usually the plan, not you. We build what you do on training days and on your own days, and we check in between sessions. You stop restarting and start stacking good weeks.
“Will I get locked into a big package?”
No. We have no packages. You pay for what you use each month, and you can stop any time.
“Who will actually coach me?”
A real TurnFit trainer who knows your name, your goals and your left knee. Not a rotating cast, and never a robot.
“What does it cost?”
It depends on how often you train and whether you train in person or online. Our pricing page lists every option. Book a free 5-minute fit call and we’ll point you to the one that fits.
“Is this medical treatment?”
No. We’re trainers, not clinicians. This is coaching and general guidance, not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.
