What Training Looks Like


1

The Space

A private strength training studio in Peabody where you can focus on your training without competing for equipment or navigating crowded gym floors.


2

The Sessions

60 minutes, one-on-one. You'll learn proper technique, progressively add load, and build strength systematically in a focused training environment.


3

What You'll Actually Do

Fundamental strength movements: squats, deadlifts, presses, rows. You'll learn to lift safely and effectively, building real capacity over time.


4

Who This Works For

Anyone ready to get stronger. First time touching a barbell or rebuilding after years away. Athletes from other sports or complete beginners. Every skill level can build real strength with proper instruction.

Get Started

Health doesn't happen through one giant burst of effort. It happens through showing up consistently—week after week, month after month. Small wins, real progress, lasting change.

That's the foundation of strength.

Small Wins.
Big Changes.

Client success stories

  • My favorite part about my coaching with Neil was the time and specificity he put into every program. Everything was catered directly to my goals and he was always available for questions and demos when I was unsure what to do.

    Alex S

  • Neil understood that developing trust and rapport was more important than setting exercise goals early on. He spent a lot of time getting to know Lily, her likes, her dislikes, what brings her joy, what brings her frustration.

    Debra H

  • Training with Neil has been fantastic! I love how individualized the program is and how he’s able to change things up when it’s necessary for my body, as well as find modifications when necessary.

    Kelsey L

  • Neil worked with me on a realistic and sustainable plan. He helped me gain a positive relationship with food and I was able to incorporate all my favorite foods into my diet while getting results!

    Christine D

  • I really notice how much my lower body strength has changed when I’m with my grandkids, or at the preschool where I work.

    Lynn K

  • My doctor's told me, “whatever you’re doing, keep doing it!”.

    Melissa D

  • I have 20 years of experience in the fitness industry as a Trainer/Coach, Manager, and Gym Owner. I can say without any hesitation that Neil was, by far, the best student I had ever mentored. His humility, eagerness, and discipline to learn the craft is unequaled.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers on how coaching works

  • No. Strength training works for everyone when taught properly.

    You don't need to be in shape to start—you need to be ready to learn. Clients start at every level: complete beginners, people rebuilding after years away, athletes from other sports building a strength foundation. Training begins where you are and progresses from there.

  • DeRosa Strength is a private strength training practice with a dedicated studio space.

    Training takes place in a private studio in Peabody—not a commercial gym or group fitness facility. Sessions are one-on-one, focused entirely on your training. No crowded gym floor, no waiting for equipment, no class culture.

  • That's exactly when expert coaching helps most.

    Plateaus usually aren't about effort—they're about programming, recovery, and intelligent progression. Expert coaching brings experienced eyes to your training so adjustments are intentional and progress continues.

  • 60 minutes of one-on-one strength training focused on technique, progressive load, and building capacity.

    Sessions include hands-on coaching, exercise instruction, form corrections, and intelligent programming that adapts as you progress. You're not just renting time—you're getting expert instruction on how to get stronger.

  • Yes, nutrition coaching is available separately when you're ready.

    Most people start with just training. Once you're consistent with strength training and ready to address food, nutrition coaching is available as an optional add-on. It's not required to make progress.

  • Add a Coaching Plan for programming on your independent training days.

    If you're training with me 2x/week but want to train 4 days total, the Coaching Plan ($140/month) provides programming for those additional days. Everything stays aligned with what we're doing in your sessions.
