DIAKADI

Working with Zach has been incredible. Super friendly caring and most importantly incredibly knowledge.

I’ve been working with Roland Borys at DIAKADI for about two years and I can’t recommend him highly enough. I originally started training with him to address back pain and with a long-term focus on longevity and getting more out of my workouts. Since then, Roland has been instrumental not just in improving my physical health, but in helping me maintain balance and consistency in my life overall. He’s thoughtful, highly knowledgeable, and takes a truly individualized approach, adapting every training session to how I’m feeling and what my body needs. With Roland, my workouts are more effective and I feel stronger and more resilient than I have in years. Beyond the gym and the workouts, he emphasizes the importance of good sleep, nutrition, and healthy habits as part of a sustainable lifestyle.

An ideal trainer for me is someone who 1) stays present with the client (not on the phone, distracted), 2) identifies my blind-spots i.e weak muscles, form issues, and 3) prepares me for my ice/rock climbing, trail running, hiking trip(s), etc. in a tailored fashion. I found all of these qualities in, Zachary Karcher, at DIAKADI Fitness! Zach himself is a hardcore rock climber/boulderer, trail runner, hiker, weight lifter, athlete etc. What can't he do?! I am very grateful to be matched up with Zach and that he is my trainer. Initially, Zach identified the mechanics of my body and tailored variety of exercise programs that not only strengthened and conditioned me, but overall changed my mindset to the point where I can believe in myself to push through sticking points and lift at a higher capacity than I can imagine. Working with Zach has been a game changer for me both in and out of the gym. While training, I have developed the confidence to fulfill barbell related exercises independently and in general be able to lift weights safely on my own. The strength that I gathered through training evidently rolled over to my performance while ice/alpine style climbing, hiking, scrambling, etc. My movements became second nature, I felt stronger, and did not experience much fatigue post these trips. I am thoroughly satisfied with Zach's training and guidance. I highly recommend Zach as a trainer to meet whatever fitness goals you have. I also recommend DIAKADI Fitness as it is a top-notch facility that is equipped with state of the art equipment that caters to a diverse community of people that walks through their doors (thanks so much Mike & Billy for your management!) Cheers!

Roland has completely transformed my mobility in the year and half we’ve been training together. All my previous chronic injury pain is now gone. I leave every session feeling incredible.

I’ve been training with Roland Borys for around 6 months. I came in after a bunch of nagging injuries (back, shoulder) had really disrupted my weight training. Roland’s focus on mind muscle connection helped me build a ton of strength without suffering any injuries in the gym. Thanks to him, I’m back to playing 5-on-5 basketball, and playing above the rim for the first time in ages. Couldn’t recommend working with him more!
