Your training,
your way.
Since 1988.

A private fitness studio in downtown Vancouver built around one idea: every person deserves a program made exactly for them, delivered by professionals who genuinely care about the long game.

I built this studio because the fitness industry was getting it wrong.

My name is Francis Yukovnic and I founded 1·2·1 Personal Trainers Inc. in 1988 after spending years inside traditional fitness clubs watching the same thing happen over and over where people would show up, wander around, do a routine that wasn’t right for them, and eventually stop coming altogether. The clubs were packed, the programs were generic, and the individual got lost in the crowd.

I knew there was a better way. So I created a studio where the individual is the entire point. Not a membership number. Not a class participant. The actual center of everything we do.

More than three decades later, that original conviction has never wavered. We are still here in downtown Vancouver because what we do works, and our clients know it.

“The traditional fitness club setting was not for everyone. I built 1·2·1 to meet those clients exactly where they were.”

More than personal training. A complete fitness partnership.

We are a Personal Fitness Consulting company offering a unique combination of services that goes far beyond what a typical gym or trainer can provide.

• Custom Personal Training
  • Every workout is designed exclusively for you. We assess your goals, your schedule, and your starting point, then build a program from scratch. You spend your time working out, not trying to figure out what to do next.
• Nutritional Guidance
  • Training hard without the right nutritional foundation is like building a house on sand. Our guidance is practical, sustainable, and tailored to complement your specific program.
• Athletic Performance
  • Whether you are training for a specific sport or simply want to move and perform better, we have the expertise to raise your game in measurable, lasting ways.
• Rehabilitative Fitness
  • Recovering from an injury or managing a chronic condition requires a specialist’s touch. Our rehabilitative consulting bridges the gap between physiotherapy and full fitness.
• Small Group Workouts
  • If you draw energy from training alongside others, our small group sessions give you the camaraderie of a club atmosphere without sacrificing the attention and structure of a personal program.
• At-Home Appointments
  • Life is busy. Our flexible scheduling includes at-home sessions so your training fits around your life, not the other way around.
