Alex Smagin — Personal Trainer
Alex Smagin — Personal Trainer

My journey in sport began at the age of 4 with gymnastics — and never stopped. Over the years I competed in gymnastics, football, bodybuilding and MMA, reaching champion and finalist level in both national and international competitions. That background as a competitive athlete across multiple disciplines is what shapes every program I build. I've coached clients across 10+ countries, at all levels — and the goal is always the same: training that works for your life, not against it.

    −10 lbs + muscle gain

    Chicago, IL · 17 months

  • I have been training with Alex for the past 15 months, and the experience has truly been life-changing. As someone in my late 40s who has never enjoyed going to the gym, finding the right trainer was especially important — and Alex has exceeded all expectations. He is consistently accommodating, professional, encouraging, and flexible, but what stands out most is his depth of knowledge and expertise. Alex does not take a one-size-fits-all approach; each session is thoughtfully structured with new challenges, ensuring that workouts remain engaging and effective. He is fully present during every session and pushes you to make the most of your time, which makes a significant difference. With commitment and consistency, results come quickly. Alex brings a broad background in various athletic disciplines, and it's clear he knows exactly what he's doing. I feel very fortunate to be working with him and would highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable personal trainer.
