I had a great experience with PBS fitness. Not only is Coach Shaw very knowledgeable, but he is also sensitive/responsive to questions or concerns. This is a great investment for people at all levels in their fitness journey. As a beginner who was new to working out in the gym, I was met with patience and eagerness which helped to instill competence and confidence through each of my workout plans. He made me a customized meal plan taking into account any food intolerances that I had. 10/10 recommend!

I really learned a lot working with Coach Shaw. He helped me to develop great habits that I have incorporated into my daily life. When I began, I was experiencing lots of pain in my lower back & knees and found each exercise hard to get through. After a year, I have greatly decreased the pain in my back and can now tackle exercises without fear. I am stronger and can’t wait to push myself further.

Lamar is an incredible coach and mentor. He puts his clients first, and does it with such personality. He’s a great motivator right by your side 24/7 to help you achieve health (and life) goals. I’ve learned so much from him and he inspires me every day to achieve great things - THANK YOU LAMAR!

Coach Shaw is fantastic to work with. He will meet you where you are and customize a lifting plan and meal plan to get you to your goals. He is responsive and stays in close contact with you the entire time. I recommend him if you are serious about achieving your goals.

Coach Shaw is extremely knowledgable and does everything he can for his clients. He pushed me past my limits and ensured that my program was tailored specifically to my goals vs. a generic training plan. He is very hands on and his communication was always timely. I'd recommend him for anyone who is looking to work with a coach that cares about you as a person from the inside out. His training is well worth the price, so be prepared to put the work in if you're serious about your goals.

I worked with Shaw for about 4 months. I really enjoyed the guidance and push he gave me gearing me towards my goal. He pushed me to really change my mindset about nutrition and change my life style for the a long term. I have been able to take away a lot from training within and implement into my daily life. Above all he excels in discipline and if you are ready to reach your goal you will do it here.

Coach Shawn’s program really works if you put in the work! I was initially hesitant about working with him because I did not know much about fitness/ meal planning. He is super easy to talk to and will answer answer questions in an appropriate timeframe! He checks in regularly which is something I wasn’t expecting! He is very positive and that helps with motivation but he will be honest and tell you that you have to put in the work for this program to work for you! I will def be working with him again!

I had a great experience working with Lamar. Not only is he a great training, he is a great TEACHER! I feel like I took a master's class in fitness/health/nutrition. Could not recommend more highly!

I’ve been a client of Lamar’s since 2015/16 minus a break in bw. He was a younger guy and so was I. There’s like a 14yr age difference bw us, me being older. That to say there’s definitely some things his body does that I’m not sure mine will ever lol…Over the last year since returning to him, he’s now not just a trainer but a coach. He’s grown exponentially in his adeptness of fitness and has been so supportive in more ways than one in helping me achieve my fitness goals. Recently I developed some extreme pain in my elbows, which also affected my mood and that ultimately lead me to see a docto. But while I waited on the appointment, I explained in detail what was going on with me to Lamar. He listened, changed my workout and meal plan and gave me suggestions on what supplements and mind set I should engage until I got it figured out. Just this past week I learned from the doctors visit that I was deficient in a few different vitamins/minerals which were causing the pain and mood shifts. Not only were they similar to the suggestions Lamar made, most are identical! I couldn’t be happier to have received the information needed so that I can start doing what it takes to heal, but I’m ecstatic that I have a coach who really gets it, gets his clients and gets that it takes real knowledge to connect with them on so many different levels to achieve success. That’s a gift and a blessing. I highly recommend him to be your coach if you’re ready to achieve and experience the same. But ONLY if you’re READY! Bc you will be pushed! ????

After having two children, I neglected my body and knew I needed a fitness program that would challenge me mentally while catering to my aesthetic needs/desires. Lamar has exceeded my expectations. He has coached me through weight goals and helped nurture my growth mindset. As a transformational coach, Lamar is passionate with a knack for helping others achieve and sustain their fitness and nutrition goals. I am looking forward to continuing my fitness journey with Powered By Shaw Fitness!

Im currently working with Lamar in his summer program: Summer Rose training program and it has been such an amazing experience! Such a solid workout plan. It’s limited compared to his regular program but he still check in with you and makes sure to answer any questions you have. Overall very grateful for this learning experience and for this amazing program. I would highly recommend Lamar!

Lamar was an amazing trainer! Very professional and stayed on top of things. I was apart of the Semi private group and he managed to still work with each of us individually to help us reach our fitness. I completed the 12 week program and I am loving my results. I highly recommend this gym! They are awesome and worth every penny!
