“
        I have been training with Bob Virgulak two or three days a week for over fifteen years. That longevity alone speaks volumes about the high regard I have for Bob’s commitment, his professional approach to my training needs, his knowledge of his field, and the strong relationship we have established. ”

With a career spanning over 20 years, Bob Virgulak has built a formidable reputation in the industry and prides himself on a fitness belief that success stems from a strong core and that safety should always remain the number one priority. His commitment to this principle has enabled him to build an excellent reputation, loyal and satisfied clients, and extensive referral network.

From the young age of 14, Bob Virgulak’s home away from home has been the gym. He began as a personal trainer in 1990 and then, 4 years later, became senior trainer at The Fitness Club of New Canaan, New Canaan, CT, as well as top sales manager. Bob founded BVPT, LLC, in 2000 which provided service to individuals in Fairfield County, CT, and Westchester County, NY. Bob has personally trained hundreds of elite clients over the years—from celebrities to CEOs and their families—and currently trains 40+ clients. Additionally, he cultivated the in-home boot camp style classes known as fitness clinics, during which two or more people train together.

In 2002, Bob launched an in-home gym installation business, Home Gyms, LLC, and has installed over 50 privately owned gyms since its inception. Then, in 2005, Optimal Therapeutic Stretch (OTS Wellness) began providing stretching, relaxation and stress relief programs in a corporate environment. The program focuses on full body assisted stretch, and relaxation techniques utilizing a full length heated mat. The programs address full body rejuvenation as well as alleviating low back, neck, and shoulder pain.

Bob has also trained high school, varsity-caliber and college-level athletes, mixed martial arts competitive fighters, ADFPA power lifters and amateur body builders. With a specialty in rehabilitation, Bob has also worked in conjunction with several Fairfield County physical therapists and chiropractors on injury rehabilitation.

Bob holds various fitness certifications—including Aerobics and Fitness Association of America (AFAA), personal training, and weight rooms, is a certified Fitlinxx instructor, and had studied American College of Sports Medicines guide lines. He is recognized and has been one of Fairfield County’s elite personal trainers for the past 15 years.

The phrase, “It’s the journey, and not the destination,” directly correlates to Bob’s approach to fitness; levels improve and people get healthier from sticking with our program and get results, as his clients attest. Bob Virgulak is the natural choice for anyone looking for a positive, committed training professional with proven results.
