“I’m gonna go on my fourth year and it has impacted my life in such a positive way. Since day 1 I’ve notified positive changes in energy levels, strength, aesthetics & my mental health has immensely improved. I’ve seen the largest aesthetic change in my core/waist with dropping inches since I’ve started. I’ve lost close to 22lbs in fat since I started!

I’ve seen massive changes in my strength overall but mostly in my lower extremities through my squats and deadlifts. My normal routine before Santos was never about being active and getting in the gym and caring about what I ate. Ever since Santos started coaching me I’ve made healthier choices to what I put into my body and focusing on my gym routine.

Now I try to push 5-6 days a week and I wouldn’t change my new fitness habits for anything in the world. I now wake up at 530am and head to the gym! With Santos’ guidance and motivation I have become more confident when executing my workout routine. All my routines have been safe and effective and I’ve only see positive changes in my aesthetics.

Santos makes me feel comfortable and coaches me throughout my lifts with verbal cues that help me adjust easily on my exercises. Top Results Fitness has been a home to me, I’ve been treated like family here. Always feel welcomed with a warm cafesito and always leave with a smile on my face.

I’ll recommend Santos to anyone who’s willing to make the effort to make changes with their lifestyle habits. He will take care of you.

I thank Santos for his time and efforts with me” 🫶🏼

“We cannot believe it is already over 8 years since we started our fitness training with Santos.  We are so excited that he has re-launched his Top Results Fitness with extended services including Physiotherapy, Chiropractic & Occupational Therapy, since these are the type of rehabilitations we needed over the years to take care of our injuries.

 As we were approaching our senior age, we always knew we needed to exercise for our general health. However, for years we struggled to keep any workout routines for more than a few months. When we met Santos, this problem went away. Santos has been like a life coach to us.  Not only he helped us to built up our physical strength; but also paid attention to our eating habits and boosted our spirits along the way. He has lived through life’s up and down with us as a family.  Many times, when we injured ourselves through golfing, biking, rock climbing, lifting tires, etc., he would adjust our routines to ensure we do not cause any further injuries and show us ways to restor our functionalities.  He genuinely cares about our overall wellbeing and stays on top of our fitness goals.   

 

Jason enjoys Santos’ sense of humor.  Somehow, Santos can make him laugh and push through extra reps at the same time.  As Jason is always happily exhausted after, he nicknamed him the ‘torture master’.  Last week he felt tired before the workout; and worried about not able to lead his cycling group for a 30 kms ride the next day.  Santos helped him to stretch his lower back and released his muscle tensions.  After the treatment, he was totally recharged with energy and confidence.  Needless to say, the bike ride next day was a great success.”

 Thanks to Santos, we are able to enjoy a healthy and active retirement life.  If you are looking for someone to be your partner for your long-term health, we will highly recommend Santos for you.  😊

“My fitness journey has been a rewarding self discovery road since I can remember. I took part in school sports during my high school years, invested in a treadmill post pregnancy and kept using it until my early thirties but I felt that I was always missing something to bring me to a my full capacity. After a bad accident that left me with scars, a tare on my clavicle, a bad arm, bad scapula and shifted L4 and L5, I decided to implement one on one training to rehabilitate my body using weights safely. And so I began my search for that amazing trainer.

Santos came referred by a good friend of mine. Not only did I take the referral in consideration when signing up with Top Results Fitness but I also saw other results in people which gave me the assurance that this investment will have its rewards in the long run as long as I was willing to put in the work. And so I committed to working out with him as my coach.

It has now been more than 5 years since I committed to TRF and I am still going strong. My fitness journey has faced some turbulation along the way, but Santos has always been on my corner encouraging me; challenging me in every session; and pushing me to my limits. He is knowledgeable, inspiring and passionate in what he does. I can happily say I have recovered, and do suffer from occasional chronic pain, and when I experience one of those days where my chronic pain acts up, Santos shares his knowledge and rehabilitation exercises and routines which instantly makes a difference. My body is stronger than when I was younger and I can attribute that to the proper posture and proper execution on each rep and exercise that he implements in my weekly sessions. I am now more confident in going to the gym on my own and applying what he has taught me without having a feeling of intimidation by the weights in the gym nor by the people.

There is no words that can encapsulate how painfully beautiful, amazing and rewarding my fitness journey has been and having Santos in my corner makes it that much more sweeter.

Thanks Santos for helping me rise higher each time I fall.

Your student and friend – Odeth-”

“For years I struggled with my weight. I tried dieting and exercising once in a while but it didn’t help. I was at my heaviest weight and I did not feel good about it. I knew I needed to do something so I decided to find a trainer who would teach me and help me change. It was hard at the beginning to start exercising and to change my old habits. However slowly my body and mind have adjusted and with the support/guidance of Santos, I’ve now see the results and I’m feeling better than ever!

Thank you Santos for constantly pushing me to do more, for always encouraging me, believing in me and making me believe in myself! I’m so proud and happy with what I have achieved so far and looking forward to continue working with you!”

“When I embarked on my fitness journey, I never imagined the profound impact a personal trainer could have on my transformation. Santos is a beacon of motivation, knowledge, and unwavering dedication to his craft.

From the outset, it was evident that he was not just another fitness enthusiast but a seasoned professional, armed with a wealth of knowledge. He meticulously tailored each workout session to my abilities, ensuring maximum effectiveness while minimizing the risk of injury. Santos’s understanding of anatomy, physiology, and nutrition laid a solid foundation for my progress, dispelling myths and misconceptions along the way.

But what truly set Santos apart was his genuine care for my well-being. Beyond the physical exertion, he took the time to understand my goals, fears, and limitations. His empathetic approach fostered a sense of trust and accountability, motivating me to push past my comfort zone and strive for excellence.Moreover, Santos had and still does up to this day has unwaveringly dedicated to my success. Whether it was early morning workouts, late-night check-ins, or personalized meal plans, he went above and beyond to ensure I stayed on track. His enthusiasm was contagious, infusing each session with energy and purpose.Thanks to Santos, I am still achieving and working hard to exceeding my fitness goals. If you're looking for more than just a personal trainer but a true partner in your fitness journey, look no further than Santos.”

“This journey with my personal trainer Santos has helped me kick bad habits and crave better healthier foods. I am more motivated, capable, and the confidence I get from exercise is not just vanity. Sure, I like how I look and enjoy making progress, but the confidence I get runs deeper than that. I have reached my goals and pushing myself to reach new ones. It’s not about Being perfect, it’s about effort and when you bring that effort every single day that’s when transformation happens. The further I can push my body reminds me of how to better tackle other challenges outside of my workouts. The harder I work for it the greater and stronger I feel when I achieve it.

I have had amazing success with Top Results Fitness and couldn’t recommend it more! Santos has helped me refine my approach to workouts, nutrition and overall motivation. The result has been some weight loss and a significant tightening of my whole body, to the point that I think it’s the best it has ever been, and I’m not stopping here!”

“It’s been 2 years since I did my first evaluation with santos. I’ve experimented with different trainers and gyms & my journey with santos by far has been the most effective and rewarding! His method of training has pushed me beyond my comfort zone to not only reach my fitness goal but to continue striving for new ones. I am not the same person I was in the first picture, mentally or physically. I don’t crave junk food or struggle to go the gym, working out and nutrition has now become a part of my every day life. Before Top results fitness I struggled with my weight, from being 130lbs to reaching my heaviest of 180lbs. I got rid of those bad habits from trying out crazy diets & obsessing with the scale to maintain a proper and healthy weight. I am now stronger, happier and more confident then ever!

Thank you santos for educating me and pushing me beyond what i ever thought I could achieve. Your friendship, support and passion is what has helped me succeed. My fitness journey has only begun and I can’t wait to continue this transformation with your guidance!”

“I've been working out with Santos for five and a half years now.

When I started with Santos I was 36 and I weighed 350lbs. I was having trouble reaching down to toe my shoes.

I had many struggles in my younger years including mental health and poverty. As part of my mental health struggles I had been given medication which caused serious weight gain and lethargy.

Santos helped me set reasonable goals and and explained why certain things, like mobility, needed work first before I could achieve some of my initial goals.

I've lost a lot of weight and I've gained a lot of muscle. I've never been stronger. My endurance is better and my mobility is now at least as good at 44 as it was when I was in high school.

I started out with a 54 inch waist and I'm currently a 42 inch waist. I was 350+ (my scale topped out at 345) and now im down to 280lb. Plus I've gained tons of muscle.

I can lift heavy weights and do barbell exercises I never would have dreamed I would be able to do.

I have more energy than I had a decade ago and much less pain.

I always feel safe and supported with Santos. He helps push me safely to my limits but never past them. I've made so much progress over the years, and with zero workout related injuries. I've learned from Santos that even as a larger person I can be a successful and improve my health and fitness levels.

Santos is not the only personal trainer I've had in my lifetime but he is by far the best. I would recommend Santos to anyone who is serious about getting fitter and healthier.”

“If you are looking for a …

Professional trainer who is maticulous, detail orientated, that strives for athletic perfection,

a coach who provides a positive workout atmosphere with guaranteed results!

A trainer who encourages and demands top effort , hard work and ensures each session will push an individual to their limits.

look no further the TRF by Santos Carcachia

He is always prepared ahead of each appointment and offers you an espresso ahead of his well planned vigorous workouts

I never thought I would ever look forward to the late nights of heavy lifting, bulgarian lunges, rear barbell squats, and the soreness & sweat that comes with it

In just a short time I have changed from someone looking for help to get active to someone who is now addicted to exercising healthy living, and who looks forward to “work out” nights.”

“I have always been an athlete however wanted to be and feel stronger as a woman and as an athlete. Meaning, yes I wanted muscle but more than that I want to be able to perform better in my sport and just be stronger. Santos has helped me drastically for years, he’s guided me through many different movements, correcting and modifying my form specifically in Powerlifting. Why Powerlifting? For squats and deadlifts…it’s to challenge myself to see how much I can actually do. I love and thrive on the BEAST inside, how to constantly push for always being better than yesterday. Santos helps me to go past my mental limits. He’s also helped me with my overall nutrition, going through my macros to understand that I can eat a lot and fuel my muscles at the same time. I am very grateful for my trainer, as what he’s provided me is a base that I can continue to be stronger and how to maintain a healthy life.”

“In the Spring of 2018 I embarked on a fitness journey that I was uncertain of the outcome because I knew that in order to meet my weight loss goal I would have to put in a lot of hard work, time, discipline and desire.  Santos, you have customized my fitness program including routines when I’m on my own at the gym and meal plans which I truly appreciate.  What I really enjoy is the education that you provide while I’m exercising and how you push me little by little so I can get out of my comfort zone and focus on the target zone.  I am truly amazed at my progress and it feels extra special receiving compliments from friends and family.  Five months later, I don’t consider making healthy food selections or exercise a struggle or sacrifice, it’s part of my life now and most importantly I enjoy it which is key to keeping the weight off and feeling good all over.

Thanks Santos, I look forward to continuing my journey with your guidance and friendship even though my thoughts may be dark when you are pushing me to my limits lol 😊”
