Success Stories

"Yesterday evening I was in the gym with my trainer working my hamstrings, doing leg curls. When I spotted this elderly gentleman headed our way who said 'you know you're half the woman you used to be.' I've never been so happy to receive a perceived insult! I owe this in large part to Gamal Castile, my wonderful trainer, who takes so much abuse from me. This man is selfless, ALWAYS SHOWS UP, doesn't count down the minutes of our sessions like every minute is a dollar sign. If you want someone as special as Gamal Castile, he's for hire, and worth every penny. He looks like the hulk, but is more Bruce Banner and can meet you where you are in the journey."

"Some of you know that I have been on a fitness journey recently. I've been working with Gamal Castile at SmartBodies and the results have been great! In 8 weeks I've lost 7" from my waist and 17 lbs. I feel more confident and much more comfortable in my own skin...a feeling I haven't had in over two decades or so!!! I can't say enough about how good Gamal and his program are. He can work with you in person or remotely whether you are like me, just trying to get healthier...or you're looking for body building training."

"A year ago the doc told me cholesterol meds were in my future if no changes were made. Today I had a checkup and got nothing but great results after focusing on weights and diet since July 2021! Huge shout out to Gamal Castile with Smart Bodies for helping me lose 24 pounds and over 11 inches for a complete body transformation! Feeling so much better and if you're looking to make a change health wise I'd highly recommend Gamal!"

"This man is hands down the most knowledgeable guy I've crossed paths with when it comes to training. Everything he talks about is coming from a depth kinesiology standpoint, which is an extremely hard thing to find in a trainer. Most trainers are more so cheerleaders saying 'LETS GO, YOU HAVE MORE!' This man is the complete opposite. He will have you recruiting maximum muscle fibers throughout your lifts by teaching you the proper techniques throughout the movements. On top of everything, with his in depth knowledge about the anatomy of the body, he can easily diagnose and fix issues and pain you're having. For YEARS I've had issues with pressing movements on my left side rotator cuff. We are currently working on tightening up my Infraspinatus muscle and it's making a huge difference."

"Gamal is an excellent trainer. He is well educated in this field and I know I am talking to the best when I have questions. I have had a right knee issue for several years, been to the doctor a few times...but never really got any answers besides being offered steroid shots and more physical therapy...Amazingly Gamal figured out my issue right away and my knee spasms have basically lessened from multiple times daily...to maybe once a week I will have this spasm. Training with him is challenging but very rewarding as well. I have dropped down in inches and weight and plan to continue to use Gamal as I further my progress in weight loss."

"For the past few months I've been struggling with knee pain, SI joint dysfunction, tight hips and glutes and inflammation from daily overuse of my body. Construction work, flooring, heavy squats and deadlifts, a few years of abuse and wear and tear and my body has been feeling off. Gamal Castile took a little time to show me how to properly stretch my hips and glutes and within a few days, my wonky SI joint (think lower back pain) has ceased inflammation. It's amazing what stretching done in the correct manner and someone to help diagnose weakness vs. tightness can accomplish. Gamal knows his stuff and has gone out of his way just to help me out."

"Huge shout out to Mr. Castile! I have struggled for a few years with lower back and hip injuries, inability to really squat or lift to the potential I knew was there. Gamal took time out of his day to straight up just show me a few tips, trick, and a few stretches to identify what was truly the issue! Well I'll tell ya I gave it a few days to see if it made a difference and man did it! Was able to move weight I hadn't moved since before my injury! He's a great dude and helped without any question! Highly recommend!"

"Gamal Castile helped me prepare my physique to walk on stage, and I couldn't have asked for a more caring coach! From hours of helping me perfect my posing to extremely detailed training programs, he puts his complete effort into his work for his clients. I learned multiple things during all of our one on one training sessions. There's no doubting his experience and his knowledge. Even better yet, he is offering a very good deal for the quality of his work!"

"Just had my first posing session with Gamal Castile at BRG. Guy is awesome and knows his stuff! Posing is very hard and fatigues you so quick thanks for all the tips and tricks, excited for the next session!"

"I have been lifting on and off for years since playing football in high school and college. I thought I had a pretty good foundation of knowledge when it came to strength training and working out in general. Gamal has proven me wrong. Gamal has provided me with a workout that quickly reminded me through soreness in muscles I forgot I had, that I do not have half the knowledge he does. If you are thinking about getting after it in the gym for the first time or knocking the dust off your old gym clothes and getting back at it, give Gamal a try. Trust me, you won't be disappointed."

"Can't say enough nice things about Gamal Castile! If your looking for a personal trainer, qualified nutrition counseling he is the person you want in your corner. He is amazing! He is not only well informed but completely professional. So incredibly genuine, someone you can sit and talk with about anything. Call him up for your personal fitness and nutritional/dietary needs."

"Excellent knowledge of sports exercise and nutrition. Gamal Castile helps all clients achieve their goals by setting up a program designed for the individual. He monitors progress and adjusts the diet and exercise programs to guarantee results. Gamal Castile gives attention to every detail which motivates me to be my best. Gamal Castile will change your life."

"Holy god... Gamal Castile knows what he is doing. I just spent half the amount of time in the gym than I normally do but I am beyond tired. It's only day one. If you are looking to get in shape I know you'll want to contact him for your training. I will see you all in twelve weeks! Haha"

"I started a new nutrition/exercise routine this past Monday with Gamal Castile of Smart Bodies, and I'm already down almost 4 lbs. I always feel the first 10-12 lbs is water weight, but I love the motivation this morning as I check in. I know I'm on my way back to my pre-pandemic, energetic self!! Gamal reset my nutritional goals and gym routine. Having this new goal and working with him is exciting!! I am anxious to see what my future holds!"
