What sets Simon apart is not his work ethic, which is as strong as any trainer I've ever worked with, nor his innovative approach to fitness ... What makes him particularly unforgettable to me is his lovability. His warmth. The personal moments we've shared over the years. He's the kind of trainer that is a true partner, one who not only sets the appointment and counts the reps, but does the workout with you, motivating and challenging you, and engaging in the kind of conversations that leave you laughing and chatting for an hour after your session. -- Chris Pratt
