"Like many others, I have been a member of Weight Watchers too many times, been on Atkins, lost the weight and gained it back, and tried many programs, and knew I needed to find the right way to take care of my health. I know now how to eat for my body type, have learned to enjoy the things I like in moderation and know that it is imperative that I train smart not just log in hours of non-effective exercise. To date I have lost 30 lbs. and a total of 6" and have gone from a size 16 to a 14 and in some items a size 12."
Stephanie O., North Vancouver

"I had a goal to lose 10 lbs. and lost close to 20. I lost 3 inches off my waist and hips. I found the program very informative and interesting."
Peter M., North Vancouver

"I learned a great deal from the program. I have been a forever dieter and hated dieting because I was always cranky and felt deprived. I could last X number of weeks and then I would go back to eating to satiate myself. Then along came your diet and I added fat and butter to my diet. The increase in fat has left me feeling satiated and I don't crave sweets. I also have cut out all snacking and I have lost 10 lbs."

"The program is one of a kind, our instructor, Curb is a great motivator. My lifestyle has changed in the past 5-6 weeks, I sleep much better and my energy level has reached the clouds. I'm not sleepy after lunch anymore which definitely helps with my workload. I have a better understanding of the foods I eat and grocery shopping has become much easier and more exciting. I now know and understand how much more energy is used for the wrong food we eat. Thanks a lot Curb, your positive energy definitely helps & motivates!"
Shabi T., North Vancouver

"The program has opened my eyes to healthy living. I have been living with IDDM (Type I Diabetes) for 28 years and by following the guidelines of the program I have decreased my daily insulin requirements by 33%. Before I started the program I seemed to be hungry most of the time. Since I have been following the program my hunger has diminished and I finally feel full after a meal. I don't need a cup of coffee in the morning to start my day and my energy level has increased. I feel like a kid again!"
Laurel W., Vancouver

"With the increase in my running regimen last year, I began to experience IT Band Syndrome. It got to the point where I could not even run for 15 minutes before the pain set in. Both my Massage Therapist and my Chiropractor (for active release therapy) were not able to relieve the pain. Thus, I contacted Curb at Ultrafitness and talked to him about the running pain that I was experiencing. After an initial assessment, Curb set up an entire fitness program with my running and fitness goals in mind. He also introduced me to a foam roller technique (self myofacial release) which has proven to be my saving grace. For months now, I have been pain free and in better shape all around thanks to Curb and his great work!"
Marianne S., Burnaby

"Our training time together has truly been life changing for me! So much more than I had expected when I walked through the door over a year ago! (soup cans, chin ups and power lifting included!)"
Diane G., Vancouver

"Having been out of the gym for years and apprehensive of weight training due to a knee injury, I hesitantly signed up for 5 personal training sessions with Curb, who repeatedly came highly recommended as thorough, knowledgeable, and with a unique approach. After 5 sessions I feel confident to continue with the very specific and well balanced program that he has created for me. Curb is a great teacher and he left me with a detailed understanding of what it will take to rebuild my strength and support my knee. I am enjoying the process and am inspired! Many thanks Curb!"
Darrell M., Vancouver

"I never really liked the idea of a personal trainer until I met Curb. He's helped me develop a functional approach to training that benefits the other sports I do. I like that he varies the program constantly and puts a lot of focus on core strength and stability."
Dr. Sue Ironside, D.C., ART, Vancouver

"Curb is what personal training is all about; individual attention and a fitness program that fits your body and your goals. Through my training with Curb I have finally been able to increase the strength and stability of an injured knee that had troubled me for years. He has given me the ability and knowledge to improve my overall health. Curb is a perfect balance of knowledge and experience, a true teacher."
Anne-Marie C., Registered Massage Therapist, North Vancouver

"Several years ago I tore my ACL and had an operation. After months of rehab I was able to work out again on a regular basis. Later, certain exercises were causing more knee injuries, inflammation and instability. After going through a couple of personal trainers that led only to frustration and further injury, my husband (a runner who had trained with him) recommended Curb. Curb, unlike other personal trainers I've had, takes the time to work out a plan that is specific to your personal needs, not like an overall "one size fits all formula" that many of the 'brand' name fitness jocks shove at you. He also has a deep understanding of the body and is very committed to education and knowledge. Curb's approach is totally personal - my knee has greatly improved in strength and agility, while not ignoring overall body strength and improvement. I am in much better shape, without any injuries! I am also aware of what exercises to do and which not to do. If you are lucky enough to find Curb before finding anyone else, you will most likely avoid wasted money, frustration and injury."
Sheri S-J, West Vancouver

"I have been training with Curb for a year and have been extremely impressed and appreciative of Curb's knowledge, drive and support. I initially began so as to regain a certain fitness level to compliment my running but soon realized that it was a perfect way to pinpoint more sport specific areas which would be beneficial for the sport I play, Australian Rules Football. Curb has taken the time to learn a relatively unknown sport in North America and developed a training program to suit the demands of that sport. He has also seen the injuries that can occur playing such a physical game and been of enormous help in the recovery process, adjusting my training regime to isolate and rebuild certain muscle groups. I would have no hesitation recommending Curb and Ultra Fitness to anyone interested in elevating their fitness level and general sense of well being."
Rob E., Vancouver

"I have been training with Curb Ivanic once a week for the past four months. I initially anticipated a quick 6-week 'pick me up program' in the hopes of breaking through some plateaus, getting some new ideas and changing my workouts. Three months later I am hooked. The advantages of working out with a personal trainer are endless and I highly recommend Curb. He takes the time to personalize my program focusing on neglected areas and helping me to break through some serious plateaus. Having been a fitness instructor for 8 years, I didn't anticipate learning as much as I have and seeing as many results as I have. Curb is very knowledgeable and actively searches out new exercises and plans my program one month at a time. He is constantly changing it up thereby we both continue to see results and maintain current goals. I have never felt so consistently strong, healthy and fit; no more fat days! I have gained a lot of strength, dramatically improved my cardio and as a bonus lost some body fat. His guidance and encouragement to push me past the point of fatigue has successfully resulted in another happy client.
