Private training in Lafayette
Hills are part of daily life here. The rim trail at the Lafayette Reservoir climbs and drops for close to three miles, the Lafayette-Moraga Trail rolls through the canyon, and plenty of homes come with a long staircase from the street. Strong legs and good balance are what let you keep enjoying all of it.
Training happens in your home, at a private gym or outdoors on the trails you already love. We pay special attention to downhill control, single-leg strength and the knees and hips that carry you, so the steep parts stay fun.
Is this right for you?
A good fit if
- Hills or stairs have started to feel harder than they used to.
- You want to keep hiking Briones or the Reservoir without sore knees afterward.
- You had a fall or a near miss and want your balance back.
- You prefer one-on-one attention to a gym floor.
Probably not a fit if
- You want a crowded class or a one-size-fits-all routine.

Questions, answered
How much does a personal trainer cost in Lafayette?
Private sessions with The Fit Potato start at $150. The total depends on how often you train. Your complimentary consultation covers the options.
Do you offer in-home personal training in Lafayette?
Yes. Sessions can take place in your home or home gym, at a private gym, or outdoors at places like the Lafayette Reservoir or the Lafayette-Moraga Trail.
How can I make hiking downhill easier on my knees?
Downhill walking loads the front of the thigh as it lengthens. Training slow step-downs, split squats and balance work builds that strength gradually, and most people feel steadier on descents within a few weeks.
Is there a personal trainer for seniors in Lafayette?
Yes. Francisco has coached adults of all ages for 23 years and focuses on strength, balance and fall prevention for clients in their fifties through eighties.
Do you serve Moraga and Orinda too?
Yes. The Fit Potato serves Lafayette, Moraga, Orinda and nearby Walnut Creek.
