03 / WRITTEN REVIEWS
Working with Luke was a great experience. He's a complete professional and expert at his craft. I hired him to help me hit my fitness goals and I left with so much more. His true passion at coaching gave me the knowledge I need to continue to live a fit and healthy lifestyle I highly recommend Luke. With his guidance you'll get to where you're looking to go
Luke is the exact coach I needed! Relatable, understanding yet firm, great follow up, realistic expectations, mindset reset, and most importantly flexible/adaptable. Thanks for setting my health and mindset on the right track for future success.
Luke helped me build fitness and nutrition habits I never thought were possible. I regularly exercise three to four times per week and have improved my nutrition. The hardest thing about building good habits is the mental mindset it requires. Luke does not judge you. He has always been empathetic to my difficulties with fitness and tailored a program specific to what I needed.
I’ve always been lean and tried to stay active, but I was never “strong”. As I’ve gotten older and built a family, I wanted to add strength training to balance and improve my overall fitness. Luke helped me better understand the most efficient and progressive ways to achieve that goal. These strategies allowed me to make significant improvements in my strength, and I can easily continue to leverage them for the rest of my life.
“Maybe even the biggest change is the mindset shift that I didn’t really expect going into it. When we started, I thought maybe you’d be like, here’s your diet, here’s your exercise plan, and you got to stick to it and you’ll see results. But for me, the biggest part of it was really just the work that we did to talk about why do I actually want to do this? If I say I want to lose weight or have a flat stomach or whatever, but why? What’s the motivator for getting there and really making me sit and think about what’s the lifestyle I want to have, not only today, but five years from now, 10 years from now, 30 years from now. And I think that’s been the biggest change for me because it’s actually giving me something really tangible to work towards and to hold onto and not just do this for a while. It’s gotten me just kind of thinking differently about how I conduct myself in the world, whether not even related to necessarily eating or exercise, but just day-to-day life. My mind shift has changed that way, and that’s been huge for me probably. I love that.”
I think the biggest difference is not how I look, my big thing is the fact that I am NOT relying on alcohol. You established a routine with me, to help me understand what to do when you’re over stressed or how to have a drink, just don’t have ten. You can do this in a healthier way, not in a habitual manor. I was worried without you as a support I would lose the confidence or make excuses to not workout, or eat right, but I’ve gone a month without having you as support. I haven’t missed a workout, haven’t changed my diet. I eat right, I continue to look for meals when I got out to eat and avoid calorie bombs. I appreciate your help, you changed the path of my life. You’ve set up me up for a lifetime of joy with my family and kids, and business, and just making things better for me and my wife and my kids, so thank you.
Luke has been there for me after our coaching relationship ended. I consider him not only an amazing fitness and lifestyle coach but a friend that I will forever value. If you or someone you know is looking for a coach to guide you along your journey, I would stop looking and reach out to Luke immediately. He will not let you down.
I was finally ready mindset wise and you provided a means of accountability and knowledge that wouldn’t allow me to make anymore excuses to myself. You have helped me change my life in one of the most important ways I can’t thank you enough
If you have goals you want to reach, if you’re on the fence about starting “just another program” because you’ve failed before, please don’t let that continue to define who you are. Looking back now, I can’t even put into words how much gratitude I have for Luke’s work and for the FIT MEN PROJECT. I’m excited to see what other benefits lie ahead for me as I continue with all of the knowledge and the strategies that Luke has armed me with.
I am a 37 year old guy that never really felt comfortable at the gym. I look back now and realize this is probably because I had no idea where to start or what to do when I was there. The next time I go to the gym, I know I will feel confident and be working out correctly. This confidence has come from being coached by Luke. I’ve not only lost weight by being coached by Luke but my overall life is healthier. I sleep better, I’m more active and I’m generally a happier person.
Working with Luke has been an absolute game-changer during a personally tumultuous time. As the Founder and CEO of a medical device company, my schedule is hectic, to say the least. Recently, coping with a family health crisis has added an unexpected layer of stress and responsibility. Through all of this, Luke has been not just a trainer but a pivotal part of my support system. Despite the chaos of hospital stays, where sleep was constantly interrupted and my daily routine was anything but normal, Luke's guidance remained a constant and calming influence. His method for "getting organized" helped me maintain not just my physical composure, but my mental focus as well. Resetting my posture and taking controlled breaks allowed me to return to my responsibilities feeling empowered and in control. Even when reaching my baseline of 10,000 daily steps seemed daunting, Luke was there to remind me of the importance of maintaining these habits, which are crucial not just for my physical health but for my mental well-being. His flexibility and understanding made it possible for me to continue caring for my loved ones while not neglecting my own health. Luke's willingness to adapt to my situation extended beyond just our sessions. He took the time to discuss health strategies with my family members, ensuring they are also supported and set up for success. His advice was tailored and thoughtful, acknowledging the discipline required and providing practical, actionable steps to maintain it amidst life's challenges. Returning to the gym after such upheavals felt surprisingly easy and motivating, a testament to the resilience that Luke helped build in me. His support made "bouncing back" into healthy routines feel not just feasible, but invigorating.In summary, Luke's role as a trainer goes beyond physical fitness. He acts as a holistic health partner who genuinely cares about the wellbeing of his clients and their families. For anyone facing the relentless pressures of leadership and personal crises, Luke is not just a trainer but a crucial ally in navigating these challenges. That's a level of support that was way beyond what I ever expected!
I spent 24 years as a Navy SEAL Commander. I’ve worked with world-class operators, trained under some of the best minds in human performance, and learned to push my body and mind to places most people will never go. But, between retiring from the Navy, being an entrepreneur, and having three young kids, I lost my edge. Enter Luke DePron, my performance coach… Luke is the real deal. A performance coach is WAY MORE than a personal trainer. Trainers count reps. Performance coaches rewire how you think about showing up for yourself. Luke helped me rebuild my entire relationship with health and fitness from the ground up… not through some cookie-cutter program, but by getting into the mental game that actually drives SUSTAINABLE change. He worked with me on nutrition, yes. But also sleep. Recovery. How I talk to myself when I don’t feel like doing the work. The stories I tell myself about what I’m capable of at this stage of life. That’s the stuff that moves the needle. In the SEAL Teams, we used to say the body can handle almost anything… it’s the mind that quits first. Luke operates from that same principle. He understands that lasting physical transformation starts between your ears. If you’re looking for someone to hand you a meal plan and send you on your way, Luke isn’t your guy. But if you want a coach who will challenge your assumptions, hold you accountable, and help you become the kind of person who actually follows through… he’s one of the best out there. Highly recommend.
This is the best I've felt. I'm just in a good system now where it really does seem very sustainable. The other day, my kids wanted donuts. We went to Dunkin' Donuts, and I just got them donuts. I didn't get anything. All those small changes have been huge. I actually really do feel supremely confident now that I can do it. It's the structure. Your whole system, you got it down, man. I remember kind of being like, I'm gonna try this guy out. What's he got? The guaranteed minimum standards, the reflection on Sundays, celebrating the small wins, having that sheet of paper that I have in my closet about my goals and my why. Those are the big difference makers. You did an incredible job. I feel good. I look better. I'm gonna continue to look b etter.It's been incredible working with you, I really do appreciate it.
