I’ve been working with Paul for six months, and he’s truly been the best lifestyle change I’ve made. He listens to my goals and tailors both a nutrition plan and workout routine specifically to help me achieve them. It’s made my life so much easier knowing my meals and workouts are all planned—I just follow what Paul says, log my meals, and do the workouts he provides.

Since starting with Paul, I’ve become stronger, healthier, and overall a better version of myself. I genuinely look forward to our sessions because he’s not only a great trainer but also a fun person to be around. The hour-long workouts are challenging but fly by, and he strikes the perfect balance between pushing me and keeping me comfortable. I couldn’t recommend him more highly!

Paul O’Daniel is an excellent personal trainer, and I highly recommend his services. I have used other trainers in the past and although they were good, I believe Paul is better. Paul cares about his clients and he takes the time and offers the personal attention to each client so that he knows what they are experiencing. I have known Paul for several years, and he has always been physical and athletic. I became his client about 4 months ago and I am very glad I made the decision to work with him. He has helped me start my journey back to fitness and feeling healthy.

I am happy to be working with him. Since starting with Paul, I feel and look much better. I am 65 years old. I allowed the COVID pandemic to knock me off my normal life pursuits. I am also a Criminal Defense Attorney with my own law practice, and we carry a full load of cases. During the pandemic, I became depressed and stopped working out. I started eating unhealthy and as a result I gained a lot of weight and felt horrible. I was not motivated to work out and found that although I wanted to start getting back into shape again, I was embarrassed at the way I looked and disappointed that I could not physically do the activities that I enjoyed and made me feel better. I had always been physically active. I have competed in Triathlons, Roa’s d biking events, Mountain biking events, boxing and Martial arts. I have also enjoyed running in local 10’s and I have run a couple of marathons, but I could no longer participate in these types of events.

I was blessed to meet and start training with Paul O’Daniel and P.O.D transformation in July 2024. He took the time to help me evaluate my diet and tweak it by adding more protein to what I was already eating to help me reach my weight goals. He also explained my calorie intake and the importance of a balanced diet.I started training one on one with Paul July 27 , he helped me focus on doing workouts I could bring onto the mats during jiu jitsu and in the striking sense. I told Paul my takedowns that could use some work. He showed me how to utilize the weight sled to build the muscle I used in takedowns. I hope going forward to become part of P.O.D management Family and utilize all the knowledge Paul has with health, nutrition, weight loss and strength and conditioning for mixed martial arts

“Paul was the catalyst I needed to restart my fitness journey.  After experiencing significant health issues in 2023, I was unsure how to safely get back into the gym without injuring myself.  Paul took the time to listen to my needs and create a plan to optimize long term success.  I especially appreciated how generous he was with his time and the knowledge to work with my 57 year old body.”

Paul is the most knowledgeable personal trainer I’ve ever worked with. He makes training as a couple super fun and maximizes our session so we both get a great workout designed for our varying goals. I have also taken Paul’s group classes and train with him individually. He taught me about the Dexa scan and has shared a ton of health information with me. Highly recommend him. tion goes here

After a two-year struggle with a vestibular issue that impacted my ability to consume enough nutrition to support a healthy weight, I began training with Paul at around 147 pounds. My goal was clear: increase my endurance, gain weight, and improve my overall body composition.

With Paul’s guidance, I progressed from 147 to 165 pounds, focusing on weights, core strength, nutrition, VO2 max, and mindset. Not only did I achieve a healthier weight, but my lean mass increased to elite-athlete levels, visceral fat reached the "excellent" category, and my bone density improved significantly. A huge predictor of longevity is VO2 max, and together, we created a plan to elevate mine from 35.4 (average) to 39 (above average) over six months. This progress was all validated through DexaFit scans, which Paul provides access to during training.

In just a year, training with Paul 3-4 times a week has completely transformed me. His meticulous attention to detail, clear communication, and unwavering accountability are exactly what I needed in a trainer. Paul’s punctuality and consistency are invaluable, especially in a field where these qualities make all the difference. Now, at 50, I’m in the best shape of my life—even compared to my years as a competitive soccer player.

Paul’s expertise in health, fitness, and mental resilience has made a profound impact on my life. Thanks to his guidance, my biological age is six years younger than my actual age. Paul pushes me beyond my perceived limits, and for that, I am eternally grateful.

If you are looking for life transformation, Paul is your guy!
